Consumer Description

SINCE WE HAVE HAD OUR CAR 2016 YOU CAN ALWAYS SMELL A GAS LIKE ODOR TYPE FUMES. IF THE CAR IS DRIVEN FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME YOU GET A HEADACHE AND DIZZY. THE FORD DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THEY HAVE NO ISSUES WITH CARBON MONOXIDE IN THE FUMES. WE WOULD LIKE THIS LOOKED INTO FURTHER AS IT IS A CONCERN. AT FIRST, WE THOUGHT MAYBE YOU CAN JUST SMELL IT WHEN THE CAR IS FIRST WARMING UP, MAYBE ITS THE HEATED SEATS TRYING TO RULE EVERYTHING OUT. UNFORTUNATELY, I THINK WE ARE NOW USE TO THE SMELL WHICH IS ALSO SO BAD BY IGNORING A ISSUE.
