Consumer Description

I OWN A 2011 CORVETTE C6 AND IN THE LAST 2 MONTHS, I GET A STRONG SMELL OF GAS THAT IS CONSTANT. I HAVE READ THREADS ON THE CORVETTE FORMS AND FOUND THIS IS A CRACK IN THE FUEL PUMP AND IT LEAKS OUT AND COLLECTS INTO THE PAN THAT SUPPORTS THE GAS TANK. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND CAN START A FIRE ALONG WITH FUMES IN THE GARAGE AND SOMETIME GAS WATER HEATERS ARE LOCATED IN THE GARAGE. I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS IS NOT A RECALL.
