Fuel is leaking onto the engine and in the engine bay from the fuel rail and fuel line. I can also smell fuel inside the vehicle's cab. There is already a recall on this exact year make and model vehicle with the same engine. Somehow my vehicle did not make it to the list. My vehicle is available for inspection. My fiance, my baby, and I are at serious risk of fire if this vehicle is started. Or if there is a another means to ignite the fuel considering it is leaking non stop even with the engine off. The vehicle...

has not been inspected by a dealer or independent service center. The Lubbock, TX fire department was called when we initially smelled gas inside of our house. They determined that the smell was coming from our vehicle being parked in the garage, which also has our air conditioning intake inside of the garage, explaining how the entire house filled with the smell of fuel after we parked and went inside. There were no warning lights or sensors warning me of the issue leading up to the issue or now currently amidst the issue. Here is a safety recall on the same/similar issue I am experiencing: [[redacted]] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

2018 Jaguar F-PACEEngine & cooling

I own a 2018 Jaguar E-PACE that recently failed the Virginia state safety inspection due to a problem involving the fuel system/fuel rail. The vehicle and affected components are available for inspection upon request. The primary symptom was a strong smell of raw gasoline. There were no warning lights or messages on the dashboard. The vehicle was also driving normally, with no noticeable change in performance. The gasoline odor was the only noticeable symptom before the problem was identified. The vehicle failed...

a Virginia state safety inspection because of the fuel-system/fuel-rail issue. After the failed inspection, I took the vehicle to a separate independent mechanic, who confirmed the problem. This concerns me because a fuel-system failure accompanied by the smell of raw gasoline creates a potential fuel leak and fire hazard. There were no dashboard warnings or changes in how the vehicle drove that would have alerted me to a potentially serious problem. After researching the issue, I learned that Jaguar has an existing recall affecting certain vehicles for a fuel-related defect that appears very similar to the problem my vehicle is experiencing. However, my 2018 Jaguar E-PACE VIN is not included in the affected population and shows no open recall for this issue. I am concerned the existing recall population may not include all affected vehicles. My vehicle's fuel-system/fuel-rail problem was identified by a state safety inspection station and independently confirmed by a separate mechanic, despite my VIN not being included in the existing recall. I am submitting this complaint so NHTSA has a record of a 2018 Jaguar E-PACE experiencing this type of fuel-system problem outside the current recall population. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate whether additional vehicles may be affected and whether the existing recall should be expanded.
