NHTSA Complaint #10444730 — 2002 OLDSMOBILE ALERO

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING FUEL SMELLS SEEPING THRU MY AIR VENTS WHEN I DRIVE AND I TOOK MY CAR TO THE SHOP SEVERAL TIMES. EACH TIME THE MECHANICS HAVE TOLD ME THAT MY ORINGS AND SOME OTHER ITEMS NEED REPLACING. THESE EXPENSES ARE VERY COSTLY AND I HAVE NO JOB! I'VE DRAWN ALL MY UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS BUT I NEED MY CAR TO KEEP BEING ABLE TO SEARCH FOR EMPLOYMENT OR GO TO WORK WHEN I GET THESE TEMP OFFERS FOR WORK!!! I SAW MY CAR HAS BEEN INCLUDED IN A RECALL, BUT GM SAYS IT'S NOT MY CAR--BASED ON THEIR SYSTEM OF KNOWING THE LAST 8 DIGITS OF MY VIN. BUT I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THESE ISSUES! EVEN WHEN I FILL UP ON GAS, THE SMELL IS ALL ON MY CAR, ON ME! I EVEN HAVE TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS FOR THE FIRST FEW DAYS AFTER I RE-FILL!!! CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME???? I AM SO SICK OF THE VIRTUES IN THIS COUNTRY! PEOPLE DON'T DO THE RIGHT THING FOR FEAR OF IT COSTING THEM A DOLLAR!! THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT THE LIVES THEY ARE IMPACTING--JUST THEIR [XXX] WALLETS! EXCUSE MY LANGUAGE AND CHOICE OF VERBAGE, BUT IT REALLY MAKES ME SICK! IHAVE TO QUIT NOW BECAUSE IT REALLY BOTHERS ME TO KNOW THAT BETWEEN THE MANUFACTURERS AND THESE AUTOMAKERS, NEITHER WANTS TO VALUE ANYTHING OVER MONEY!
