NHTSA Complaint #10298146 — 2002 SUBARU WRX

I HAVE THE FUEL LEAK/ SMELL ISSUE COVERED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 09V468000, NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: EA09011. I HAVE HAD THE PROBLEM FOR SEVERAL YEARS BUT IT APPEARS TO BE WORSE THIS WINTER IN THAT IT HAPPENS AT TEMPERATURES JUST BELOW FREEZING NOW. IN PREVIOUS WINTERS IT WOULD HAVE TO BE BELOW 20 DEGREES BEFORE I WOULD NOTICE THE SMELL OF RAW GASOLINE. I NOTICE THE PROBLEM WHEN STOPPED AND IDLING IN THE COLD WEATHER. IN PARTICULAR WHEN STOPPED AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS. MY CAR WAS PURCHASED IN AND REGISTERED IN MASSACHUSETTS. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY IT WAS NOT COVERED IN THE RECALL. MASSACHUSETTS IS FURTHER NORTH THAN CO AND PARTS OF NE, IA AND NY WHICH ARE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. *TR
