Fuel smell

I love my E350 but lately I am getting a fuel smell every time that I refuel. Talk with my service provider and he claims ignorance. A quick google search showed lot of chatter and a class action lawsuit in going on in Texas. Can anyone help me. Dealer claims that the repair cost over $2,000 and there is not a recall on it. Will appreciate any feedback / response. Have an appointment tomorrow.

Very confusing---your buddy you say is ignornat of the smell. You say--the dealer without seeing the car and not indicating what the problem is---says $2000.00 to repair!-----and there is a supposed class action suit in Texas-----and you are asking for feedback----my WAG is first find out where the smell is comming from and fix the leak!!
