Need to find out if there are any recalls with the VW golf r 2015 model. Anything related to engine, fuel system, exhaust that would cause a fire
The car smells like gas from the air vents. I have made multiple attempts for the dealer to fix it, but their response is "your serial numbers are not part of the recall". That's fine, but it smells like gas inside the car!
