Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The car exudes a very strong smell of gasoline. The gasoline odor is so strong that I can no longer park the car in the garage of our house as the fumes are so overpowering they seep into the home living areas and cannot be tolerated (breathing). Overall, the gas fumes are strong enough that I do fear that something external (cooking, water heater pilot light) could possibly cause spontaneous fume ignition/fire.”
