Fuel Tank SPLIT UP!

[Juan Chan]

Hi guys, have you ever heard fuel tank split up for no reason? Shocking, right?

My vehicle is a 2014 IS350 F, today I went to the fuel station with empty tank, after pump 63L fuel (the gun firstly stop) I realized the car was leaking heavily underneath which is never happened before. 
 

The firemen came and right after their inspection, one of them told me they found my car’s fuel tank was split up. Right, that was the phrase he told me about.

One thing have to be stressed out is I just officially changed the fuel pump a few days ago due to their recall in 2020, they just found me. At first I thought the leaking must about the fuel pump thing, I cannot believe the tank was split up, in the middle, I mean, right?

I called Lexus dealer and they offered me a car to go home from the fuel station and I left my car with them to deal with.

I’m writing this to share this experience and wondering why this could happened, anyone can share their thoughts with me because I really cannot figure out why such thing happens. No crash, no hit, anything’s normal. The fireman said he never heard about this either and his opinion was because of the faulty. The Lexus guy seemed shocking, too.

thank you for sharing your valuable thoughts.

Anybody can share their idea about this is a major failure or not, after on night, the dealer announced the vehicle all fixed! I am worry about that is not a safe car… thanks…
