Consumer Description

VERY STRONG CONTINUOUS SMELL OF GASOLINE INSIDE THE CAR COMING FROM THE FRONT ENGINE AREA OF THE CAR WHEN STARTING IT AND THE SMELL CIRCULATES IN THE CAR WHILE DRIVING IT. ALSO SMELL GAS FROM THE CAR FOR A LONG WHILE, AFTER PARKING IT IN MY ENCLOSED GARAGE. THIS IS A SERIOUS HEALTH, SAFETY AND EVIRONMENTAL ISSUE. THE SMELL MAKES ME NAUSEOUS. JUST BOUGHT THIS 2017 HONDA CRV THREE MONTHS AGO, TOOK THIS VEHICLE BACK TO DEALER, HE SAID THEHONDA FACTORY DOESN'T HAVE ANY FIXES FOR THIS ISSUE. UNTRUE PER DATA FOUND ONLINE WHICH STATES THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF PER A RECALL OF THESE VEHICLES IN CANADA AND FOR SOME STATES BUT NOT YET IN ALL USA STATES, INCLUDING MY STATE. I HOPE THIS VEHICLE IS RECALLED AND THE ISSUE FIXED VERY SOON FOR OUR HEALTH AND SAFETY.
