When the vehicle sits in an enclosed garage, it fills the garage with raw fuel odor. this happens most often when it is around 3/4 tank. no fuel leaks on the floor visible but odor is very strong. gas mileage has dropped significantly as well.
When tank is 1/2 or full stationary, fuel smells and fuel leaks. leaves spots in my garage and the smell in garage is disgusting. fuel smell penetrates in vehicle cabin as well.
Car is leaking gas down the side of the driver's-side fuel tank.
My car smells like gas when its above a half tank. once it goes below a half tank the smell is not as strong. i took it to lakeside chevrolet in rockwall, texas and was told that it appears that seal on the fuel pump was broken causing gas to escape. i was originally told that chev would fix it at no cost to me then they called me 3 days later and told me warranty would not cover it because my cars age. wendell, in the service dept said that chev had extended the warranty to 10 years or 120,000 miles whichever came 1st because of the issues they were having with the fuel system. my car has 63,000 miles on it. i felt they should fix it but they wont unless i pay the $2500 or so.
Corvette has had a problem with fuel smell coming from the car after you fill the tank.this issue is very serious. fuel leaks out the top of the tanks, and will then drip down the back side onto the hot exhaust. if ignored this could result in a fire and possible death. if parked overnight in a garage, the vapor will fill the garage and could easily be triggered into an explosion and fire from a gas water heater or other ignition source. i can't park my c6 in my garage without it filling the entire garage with fumes so strong that i can't even keep my dogs in there. the vapors then seep into the house. the car is unsafe to drive, and unsafe to leave parked.
When i start my car the gas leaks out of the rear driver side onto the ground below the car.
Smell of fuel is overbearing in the cockpit of the car while driving. it's a 2007 chevrolet corvette 2 door. just purchased the car 3 weeks ago.
The car has a strong gas smell that has a know problem that happens when tank is over half full. gm issued a special coverage adjustment 15682 primary tank module flange fuel and vapor leak in july 2016. but many of us as second owners did not receive the letter to take car back while still under warranty, the car has smell is so strong cannot park the car in garage and can smell when it outside. i would believe there could be a risk of fire if car was in a small enclosed space and a source of ignition was present. this should have been a full recall based on a gas vapor leak not just a service adjustment. i have tried to work with gm on this but they claim its to late even though they issued a 3rd revision of the adjustment in july 2017. to me for a known fuel vapor leak problem there should be no expiration like a recall
I have a strong gas odor coming from left rear side of the car when i fill the tank more than half full , the car only has 6000 miles, i purchased new in november 2007
