NHTSA Complaint #10640628 — 2010 DODGE CHARGER

AN OVERWHELMING SMELL OF GAS STARTING AROUND 9/6/14. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE STANDARD OIL CHANGE AND ADVISED THAT I SMELLED GAS. THEY INDICATED THAT WHEN CHANGING THE OIL THEY WOULD PERFORM A PRELIMINARY CHECK. AT THAT TIME THEY DIDN'T NOTICE ANY VISIBLE LEAKS AND SCHEDULED ME AN APPOINTMENT TO BRING THE CAR BACK IN ON 9/15/14 IF THE CAR STILL SMELLED OF GAS AND DID NOT GO AWAY. THE SMELL EVENTUALLY WENT AWAY, BUT START NOTICING ANYTIME THE CAR WAS FILLED UP WITH GAS THE SMELL WOULD RETURN ON 9/30/14 FILLED THE CAR UP WITH GAS AND BY THE TIME I MADE IT HOME IT WAS POURING GAS NEAR THE LEFT PASSENGER REAR. FURTHER OBSERVATION SHOWED THAT THERE IS A LEAK IN THE GAS LINE. I HAVE SCHEDULED IN APPOINTMENT TO TAKE IT BACK TO HE DEALERSHIP WITH THE 1ST AVAILABLE APPOINTMENT 10/8/14. I WAS ADVISED TO NOT DRIVE AS THE CAR CAN POSSIBLY IGNITE. IT IS NOW PARKED IN THE GARAGE. IT IS HOT. NOT SURE IF THE GARAGE SHOULD BE OPENED TO GIVE AIR OR IF OPENING THE GARAGE WILL ALLOW SUNLIGHT THAT MAY COULD CAUSE FUMES TO IGNITE. THE GARAGE SMELLS OF GAS AND THE FUMES ARE NOW IN MY HOME. DO WE KNOW OF ANY ISSUES WITH THE DODGE CHARGER AND GAS LINE LEAKS. *TR
