Fuel was found leaking from the rollover valve nipple on the fuel tank. This nipple has been known to crack when the metal ventilation line line adds stress to the plastic nipple. Gasoline was found in a puddle on the floor at the left/ rear of the car. Audi has recalled and repaired this defect on later year A6S but Audi of America, Inc. Refused to repair the 1998 A6. The gas tank on the 98 A6 is identical to the gas tank on the recalled vehicles. The national highway safety administration has already determined that these fuel tanks present a serious fire hazard and participated in a recall. This recall needs to be expanded to include all A6 vehicles with the defective plastic nipple including the 1998 Audi A6 in question.
