Consumer Description

I SMELL GAS FUMES AFTER DRIVING MY CAR AND THEN PARKING IT IN THE GARAGE. THE PART WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIX BEFORE THROUGH THE RECALL BUT IF I WAS FIXED CORRECTLY OR IN FACT FIXED AT ALL, THEN WHY IS IT HAPPENING NOW. I TOOK THE CAR IN BECAUSE I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE, NOT BECAUSE I WAS EXPERIENCING ANY ISSUES, BUT NOW THAT I AM THEY WON'T FIX IT. IT OBVIOUSLY WASN'T FIXED PROPERLY
