Description of the problem	I have the hyundia 2012 2. 0t. On 2 desperate occasions the car has filled up with gas fumes. I filled up the gas tank and started driving from las vegas to laughlin. It was over 105 degrees , which it is often in the desert areas. About 20 mins into the drive my wife asked me do you smell that it smells like gas again. We already had the car serviced for to other recalls. I said yes so we turned the air conditioner up . It got worse as we drove . Our eyesvstarted tearing up it was starting to get hard to breath so i pulled over and told my wife to get out and stand away from the car. I opened the his slowly to see if there was a leak or fire. There was none so we staed driving again and it proceeded to get worse we opened the sun roof and all the windows. Then we stopped in the city of searchlight to walk it off. Honest to god there was another newer sonata 2014t parked next to us when we came out. He asked us how we like our car . I told him i love it but we were having gas fumes in the car. He said that he just left laughlin about 30 mins ago and that is the reason he pulled over. It happen to him a few times but it was to hard to breathe and his eyes started hurting. I said exactly. In was about 105 outside now. I called dealer ,abc hyundai. They know about the problem ,it a gas exhaust ventilation problem. There is not a recall yet so i have to pay for it. I said what it's $135 to start. So i called both centennial hyundai and las vegas hyundai. They both know about the problem . First is it toxic ???? Next when someone passes out or dies is that when a recall starts? One more thing that may be a recall due to safety if i lock my car doors with the remote then the rear passenger doesn't lock all the way . So i have to open the passenger behind the driver and manually lock it. This now triggers the passenger front to unlock.
