| Description of the problem | On a frequent basis i can smell gasoline fumes in the vehicle interior while driving. When i asked the dealership about the fumes they acted like it was normal, and did not investigate the problem. If the fire wall around the vehicle is intact how can fumes get into the vehicle interior? They did suggest it may be caused by an air lock in the system. |
