Description of the problem	I leased this car late march 2019 and from day one i smelled a gasoline like odor when turning on the car for the first 5 to 10 min. I've had bmw forn10 years and subaru is new to me. I thought the smell was normal because it's a 4wd. At my last vehicle service at subaru i mentioned the smell to them. They ultimately discovered that the car has a faulty exhaust. They said the smell came from a plastic bag that they found inside the hood of the car. However, my brother in law had opened the hood 2 weeks prior to check the oil level of car bc of a sound it was making and there was no plastic bag at that time. I am going to have the exhaust replaced this saturday but i wanted to report this just in case there are more cars that have the same problems.
