 Description of the problemMy wife called me while i was away on business and said that there was a smell of fuel in the house. I asked her to make sure to check the oven and she said it was not that type of gas and that it smelled like auto fuel. I came home and we had appointments to check out new homes and we noticed that the inside of the car smelled like fuel and i had to drive with the windows down and no a/c because we have two small children as well and the odor was stronger when we had the a/c on. We park our 2010 audi q5 in our garage and when we got home from our appointments i could smell a very strong smell of fuel coming from the rear passenger wheel well. We have not overfilled the car and there must be some kind of leak. This is my wife's car and she has been complaining of bad headaches and nausea over the past couple of weeks and my children ride in this car as well so this to me is a health concern that if the fuel pump or some other function of the fuel system fails that harmful gasoline fumes could enter the cabin or even into our home and cause damaging effects to my families health. I will be taking it into the dealership in reno nevada and will update you on what the outcome is.
