While the vehicle was parked in my garage, the gas fumes came into my home. The Gas Company was called out and found the smell coming from my Mercedes. I notice a strong smell of gas inside my Mercedes 2011 AMG-CL 65. I also notice the fuel gage decreased after a day. This could have caused a fire. I took the car to Calabasas Mercedes-Benz dealership and was told that this is common, but I see no recalls. After searching I found the 2011 Mercedes recall regarding fuel spill on E-Class, GL-Class, M-Class or R-Class.
