Consumer Description

MY CAR WAS LEAKING GAS AND HAS FUEL VAPOR SMELLS INSIDE THE CABIN. STRONG SMELL OF GAS AND WHEN I STARTED MY CAR GAS WOULD LEAK ALOT. THE RECALL NUMBER WAS (11V029000) AND I WAS TOLD I WASN'T ELIGIBLE FOR THIS. I HAD TO BRING MY CAR TO A LOCAL SHOP TO GET THIS CHECKED OUT AND THEY CHARGED ME $300 LABOR AND $300 FOR THE PART. I AM REALLY FRUSTRATED ABOUT THIS SITUATION. PLEASE HELP
