I was driving and my engine light came on. I ran the code and it came up as P052E which has to do with the positive crankcase ventilation regulator valve. I’ve heard that this part goes out very often on the Mercedes Benz.

2017 MERCEDES-BENZ GLC300- El Paso, TX
Strong gasoline smell coming from the engine bay every morning at start up. I removed protective plastic lining from the under carriage to identify the issue. I identified a lot of gasoline dripping from the top portion of the engine compartment where the High Pressure Fuel Pump is located. There was no warning or check engine lights that alerted of this issue of a gasoline leak. This is very dangerous as it could cause the vehicle to catch fire.
