Hello, my camaro has had a gas leak from the gas tank/filler neck for several years now. About three years ago, I went to the chevrolet dealer and they recognized that it had a problem, but couldn't figure out how to fix it under the old recall that 'appears' to have expired. However, this is a safety issue. The camaro has been sitting in a garage for the last several years due to safety concerns. I was speaking to martin wheeler at gm customer service center who said he could not find a manager to speak with me (they were all occupied). I have been directed to mail paper correspondence to the following address: general motors po box 33170 detroit, mi 48232-5170 thanks, robert wilkes

There is a fuel leak at the filler neck. Also, fuel tank can only consume five dollars worth of fuel without the tank leaking. Consumer has contacted dealer. Please provide any further details.

Fuel is leaking from the filler neck ever since I bought the car over two years ago. The car smells like fuel around the gas tank, and you can see gas running down the side of the tank from the filler neck. If the car is put in a garage, the garage will smell strongly of gasoline. This seems like a safety hazard.

The original soldering of the filler pipe broke causing the the brackets to fail and collapse on the side of the vehicle. This may cause a gas leak.

In 1994 we took our 1991 camaro to brack rowe chevrolet for a recall on the gas tank filler neck. There was no problem then, the recall # was 92c36. In 1995 we noticed a faint gas odor in the car after filling up. The problem has gotten much worse, now gas leaks from the tank onto the exhaust pipe. Chevrolet says they have no open recalls on my vehicle and that it has too many miles on it for them to fix. This is a serious safety issue in that gas is leaking onto the exhaust pipe. The bill I got for the recall says "completed recall - inspected - no further work required." does this mean that chevrolet is not liable for their faulty work because they inspected my car one time?
