The dealership did stand behind their repair (patch) work that was performed before I bought the car...Good surprise; After I had a chance to see what they did, it appears they installed a used tank...Bad surprise. There was no charge for this work in July and the used tank is leakproof thus far.

The cost of a new tank appears to be $1,300 for DIY'ers. I don't know what other parts would be required (fuel pump, gas gauge, gaskets, etc.).

I've had my 07 AWD Edge for six months without any problems. Last week I noticed a gas smell. Today the tank is leaking from the top of the tank after a fill up. I don't believe it is a case of overfilling the tank. The stealership reportedly fixed the same problem before I bought it in December. They said they replaced the tank but I don't believe it - I think they either replaced a gasket or tried to seal the leak.

If you have any experience with a similar problem, or replacing any gaskets on the tank or replacing the whole tank, your help would be greatly appreciated.

Should I go to Ford, back to the dealership, NHTSA or all the above?

Thanks in advance,
