Consumer Description

I bought a 2011 Grand Sport Corvette and if I fill the tank over half full the gas smell is unbearable. Some one needs to recall these cars. This issue is very serious. Fuel leaks out the top of the tanks, and will then drip down the back side onto the hot exhaust. If ignored this could result in a fire and possible death. If parked overnight in a garage, the vapor will fill the garage and could easily be triggered into an explosion and fire from a gas water heater or other ignition source.
