Some Kia Sorento owners report experiencing issues related to fuel line breaks, which can lead to significant gas leaks, particularly under the driver side rear of the vehicle. These gasoline leaks pose a serious fire hazard, increasing the risk of fire due to flammable fuel. Additionally, owners may notice a strong smell of gas, indicating a potential leak that could result in toxic gasoline fumes and carbon monoxide poisoning. Fuel lines can develop leaks from normal wear and tear or damage from road debris, necessitating careful inspection of the fuel system to identify and address the source of the leak promptly. In cases of a fuel line break, it is crucial for owners to seek resolution from a qualified mechanic to ensure the safety of the vehicle and its occupants. Repair costs for gas line leaks can vary based on the severity of the issue and the mechanic handling the repair.
