Complained to Lexus. Told gas tank expands in hot weather, overflows into charcoal tank. When charcoal tank full, has nowhere to go but into car. Fumes so bad people won;t get near car and I can't park in our home garage. Told by Lexus to never fill more than 3/4 tank of gas in hot weather. I live in Las Vegas where it's hot most of the year.

I've taken this to Lexus continually every summer, all to no avail.

In 2009 I developed (and had emergency surgery) a very aggressive fast growing brain tumor and am currently having doctors check to see if constant inhaling of gas fumes could have been the cause of my tumor. This is only one of many problems with the possessed Lexus from HXXX! Thankfully I only have 9-months left on my lease as Lexus refuses to do anything for me.
