Consumer Description

I AM IN THE MILITARY CURRENTLY STATIONED OVERSEAS, IN ITALY, AND WE NOTICED THAT THE CAR I BOUGHT IN 2015 HAS BEEN RELEASING GAS FUMES ON COLD MORNING, THAT WILL LAST NO MORE THAN 3 MINUTES, NOTICEABLY WHEN THE ENGINE IS WARMED UP. WE NEVER NOTICED THIS HAPPENING ON WARM SEASON. STRONG GAS SMELL COMES IN THROUGH THE AC VENTS WHEN THE CIRCULATION IS OPEN AND/OR IN DEFOGGER MODE. NO GAS SMELL IN ENGINE BAY BUT RATHER THE GAS SMELL IS STRONG ON THE EXHAUST PIPES.
