Recently reported FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM problems on 2009 Chevrolet Corvette

For the last couple weeks, i've noticed an increasing fuel smell emanating from my corvette's driver side rear wheel well. the fuel vapor smell is now at the point where i need to park my vehicle outside. after researching the issue, i've come across numerous reports of covette c6 owners reporting the same issue. the consensus seems to be that hairline cracks develop on the top of the fuel tanks causing fuel to leak on and down the side of the tank. obviously this could lead to a serious fire hazard if it were to leak on to the vehicles exhaust. with the amount of c6 owners reporting this same issue and the potential for extreme fire hazard, i feel that gm should address the issue.

Car has a smell of gasoline especially after i fill up my tank, i never over fill the tank, when i park in my garage my whole garage smells like gasoline.i smell it more when th care is stationery .

2009 corvette z06, very strong odor of fuel both in cab and outside of vehicle!!! looked under car on drivers side and was able to see wet/damp areas around fuel tank. what really sucks, is that i cant even park it in my garage. the fumes are so strong, i'm afraid something will cause the fumes to ignite and put everyone's lives in danger. i looked on alldatadiy and found a recall/service bulletin however, when i called the dealership, they said based on my vin# that my car was not affected....wtf!!!!! how can it not be? my car is doing exactly what the recall/service bulletin says.

Takata recall when the fuel tank is above 1/2 is smell like fuel in my garage there a recall i have it at the dealership service writer call gmc and told him that they only cover 30 %,it was do at the end of the year or 120,000mil i don't have none of those it below mil and time

There is a strong gas odor coming from the fuel filler tube (driver's side) area and an even stronger smell on the inside of the cockpit. but there are no visible leaks on the driver way (inclined) or garage floor. and there are no visible wet areas under the tanks or tank shields. gas odor is related to gm bulletin #15682 dated july 2016.

Constant smell of gasoline coming from the left rear of the car.

There is a strong smell of gas in the whole cockpit after filling up. i don't over fill the car and i try not to get any drops spewing when filling up. the smell is stronger on the rear side of driver. i can smell gas in my garage when i park it in.

Fuel leak

I'm purchased the vehicle a month ago and ever since i had it it gives out a fuel smell sometimes it smeel a lot and other times it's not as noticeable

Very strong gas smell when the tank is filled. filled garage with smell. was afraid to start car. pushed out of garage and let sit for 2 days. started and drove to dealership.

Fuel smell after fully filling the gas tank. know issue under special coverage bulletin 15682 by gm.

Fuel leak from top of tank drivers side - dangerous

Gas smell in and around car. usually after filling the gas tank.

Fuel leaking from around fuel tank. possibly from fuel pump area. strong gas smell fills garage over night. gas can also be smelt inside of the car while driving. this happens regardless of the amount of fuel in the gas tank, but is more noticeable when tank is 1/2 or more full.

Strong gasoline smell whenever the tank is more than half full. so strong that i can smell gasoline in the house if the car has been parked in the attached garage overnight. i am concerned that the high concentration of gasoline vapor might b e a fire hazard to the house. i am also concerned that gasoline could touch the exhaust and catch fire while driving. no odor whatsoever when the tank is below half full.
