Battery located in the back of the rear seat has gone bad, and causing sulfuric acid fumes to escape into the passenger's compartment, making passengers ill. Dealer contacted.
Delco battery that comes with the vehicle has two outlets with two broken terminals that leak, and the gas that leaks. It is stored under the back seat, which also stores all the electronic relays that will produce sparks and create a hazardous situation, possibly starting a fire.
