What owners wrote
Gasoline leak where filler tube attaches to fuel tank. Noticed strong gasoline smell in garage, put car on ramp and could see fuel dripping from spot where the filler tube connects to the fuel tank. Dealer says that the entire tank must be replaced and they are back ordered nationwide. So this is happening to others and no recall???? Updated 11/10/11 pictures received. 03/05/12
I'm the second owner of this vehicle, having bought it less than three years from its original purchase date. Every time I fill up the gas tank (I don't top-off), and for up to a day later, my garage will wreak of gasoline when the car is parked in the garage. I've parked other cars in garages following fill-ups and this has never occurred. The garage is adequately ventilated.
