Angry 2013 Honda Accord faulty fuel tank

2700 miles in 3 months and 2nd visit to the dealer in past 3 weeks! First, the MIL light had come on (late May) so they replaced the EVAP canister. Last night, the MIL came on again, so off to the dealer today. The bad news is that it supposedly is a faulty gas tank that needs to be replaced. I am documenting everything what's going on (in case it's I got a lemon). Anyone has had the same problem?

On the side note: I had to get some things from the car at the Honda service shop, and when I get there, the car is all ripped apart, and it smells like somebody dumped a full tank of gasoline inside the car! Very UNHAPPY Honda customer.

they pressurize the tank to check for leaks to gain access to the tank they remove the back seat then open a cover that leads directly inside the tank were the fuel pump is located so that's why it smells like gasoline inside your car its normal for this kind of procedure.
