Consumer Description

WHEN ADDING MORE THAN HALF A TANK OF GAS, THE CAR WILL HAVE GAS FUMES COMING OUT FROM THE DRIVER SIDE, SOMETIMES I CAN SEE GAS DROPLETS COMING DOWN FROM THE BOLT HOLDING ON THE DRIVER SIDE GAS TANK COVER. DID SOME RESEARCH IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR C6 CORVETTES. IT SHOULD BE RECALL FOR SAFETY PURPOSES.
