Typical fuel system symptoms owners report
- Owners report a strong gasoline odor inside the car and in attached garages, often described as persistent even after the vehicle sits for days.
- Several complaints describe the smell intensifying when the fuel tank is filled past half full and fading as the tank empties.
- Multiple owners had dealers diagnose a leaking fuel pump located on top of the fuel tank, sometimes requiring replacement of the fuel pump, sensor kit, and fuel pipe.
- Some owners report no visible fuel puddle despite the strong odor, making the leak source hard to confirm without dealer inspection.
