Description of the problem | Very strong fuel smell what looks like may be a gasket under rear seat in vehicle... Smell is even stronger after filling up, and when making hard stops. There is no gasoline seen leaking from under car at this time. Concerned about fire hazard. Heard others have had similar problems. This could also be a very significant fire concern as the fumes are very strong in garage with vehicle parked, and could be a problem when gas appliances or water heaters come in proximity to vehicle. |
