Consumer Description
SMELL OF GAS IN THE GARAGE AFTER LEAVING WINDOWS DOWN. THEN LATER NOTICED IT AGAIN IN THE CABIN 2-3 DIFFERENT TIMES WHICH MY SON WAS VISITING AT THE TIME AND SMELLED IT IN THE GARAGE AGAIN. HE CHECKED THE OIL AND WE COULD SMELL GAS, I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH DEALERSHIP ON 1-8-19 WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL AND MECHANIC COULDN'T SMELL GAS ON DIP STICK WHICH I GOT THE MANAGER INVOLVED AND HE TOLD ME THE PROBLEM IS MORE SO IN THE NORTHERN STATES WERE IT'S COLD. HE TOO SAID HE COULDN'T SMELL GAS BUT CHANGED MY OIL ( WHICH HAD ALREADY BEEN CHANGED RECENTLY)..WAS TOLD NOTHING THEY COULD DO UNLESS OIL LIGHT CAME ON OR STARTED HAVING ENGINE PROBLEMS OR TILL A RECALL COMES HERE. I HAVEN'T NOTICED THE SMELL SINCE WARMER WEATHER HAS COME IN. LOVE THE CAR BUT SCARY WHEN IT COMES TO GAS AND THE ENGINE WHICH "AGAIN" WAS ASSURED WASN'T A DANGER TO ME.
