Tl* the contact owns a 2014 chevrolet sonic. The contact stated while starting the ignition, a strong odor of fuel emitted inside of the vehicle. In addition, the entire fuel leaked out of the fuel tank onto the ground. The vehicle was towed to an authorized dealer. There was a recall associated with NHTSA campaign id number 13v464000 (fuel system, gasoline). However, the VIN was not included. The vehicle was currently being diagnosed. The manufacturer was notified of the problem.

I purchased this vehicle used in 2016 from a car dealership. A couple of months ago my key would not come out of the ignition and I had to wait a few mins then try again. Next time it did that it took 30 mins to remove the key until finally the last time it would not come out period and I had no choice but to leave the vehicle and have it towed to the shop. I had to replace a part of the shifter. There was a metal piece right under the shifter knob that failed.
