“There is a strong odor of gas coming from my 1991 Camaro. After doing research into the problem, I became aware of a recall (#92c36) for this vehicle covering the fuel filler neck/tank soldier joint(may 24, 1994). I went to palm Chevrolet and called Chevrolet customer service, only to be told that no vehicle identification number or associated open campaign information matching my VIN was found. I asked if the work was done to this car and they said they could not tell me since they only keep records for 10 years. The # is . …”
NHTSA complaint #10254356, filed 2009-01, 75,000 miles“1991 chevy Camaro - there is a recall on this but when I call manufacturer's I am told there is not?

NHTSA complaint #10214066, filed 2008-01, 56,000 miles“I noticed that when this car was filled, fuel would leak from the tank right where the filler tube goes in. I also could hear a rattle in the rear while driving. I pulled the fuel tank to have it sent out for repair. After further inspection I realized that the rattle was coming from the loose baffles in the tank and that the loose filler neck rattled against the internal baffles also. I felt that soldering the joint would be a quick fix, but because of the looseness, it would only leak again in time. At this point I decided to just replace the tank(and fuel pump). …”
