Consumer Description
SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR TWO YEARS AGO, THE OIL LEVEL HAS INCREASED AND SMELLS OF GASOLINE, AND THE CABIN HAS ALSO ON OCCASION SMELLED OF GASOLINE. I COMPLAINED TO THE DEALERSHIP WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK OF OWNING THE CAR, TO NO AVAIL. I HAVE COMPLAINED EACH TIME I'VE BROUGHT IT IN FOR SERVICING, TO NO AVAIL. I COMPLAINED TO THE GENERAL MANAGER OF THE DEALERSHIP, WHO SAID HE'D NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A PROBLEM, WHEN I HAD THE CAR SERVICED ON 5/14/19 (WHICH INCLUDED AN OIL CHANGE). A WEEK LATER I CHECKED THE OIL 'SURE ENOUGH, THE LEVEL HAS RISEN AND IT SMELLS OF GASOLINE. I HAVE GRAVE CONCERNS: FOR MY HEALTH AND SAFETY DUE TO THE OIL DILUTION PROBLEM. I PRIMARILY DRIVE SHORT DISTANCES, WHICH I UNDERSTAND INCREASES THE LIKELIHOOD OF OIL DILUTION IN THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE.
