Fuel leak. Can smell fuel when car is parked in garage. Fuel smell leaks into vehicle cabin and into attached house. This problem is believed to be caused by a broken fitting on the fuel pump module, located on the top of the fuel tank. GM did a service bulletin 17469, but this only covers vehicles less than 10 years old. This problem may present itself on vehicles that are older than ten years, it just depends on how long it takes for the plastic fuel pump fitting to deteriorate.

The odor of fuel can be smelled while outside and inside the vehicle. The smell is coming from the drivers side rear wheel area. Research online shows that GM used faulty fuel pumps/seals. This is a very dangerous fault.

Terrible gas fumes smell when I fill tank over half full! fumes even inside car when windows closed and when garaged the smell is so strong I think a open flame would cause an explosion! this has gone on for several years and not gotten fixed because of reported cost and I think GM should fix. I think this is a health and danger hazard and would hope GM would do the right thing and fix this on my 2008 Corvette.

After filling the gas tank, gas and/or vapor is leaking from the tank. If I park the car in the garage it soon fills completely with a strong gas smell. I believe this is a fire hazzard.

I have been having a strong gasoline oder inside my vehicle

- Sanford, FL, USA

Consistent fuel smell coming from vehicle. Can no longer park the car in the garage in fear of starting a fire and burning the house down and potentially killing my family as it sits next to water heater. Gas smell comes from when vehicle is stationary in the garage and there are no visible leaks (spots or puddles underneath the car)

- Titusville, FL, USA

The gas fumes leak into the cockpit and smell up the car so bad it makes you dizzy and smell up the entire garage, worse is the fact that 2 dealers in my area still have not figured out how to correct it, this is dangerous and needs a class act filed against manufacture.

After I park my 2008 Corvette inside, there is a strong smell of gasoline. I understand it is probably from a fuel leak at the top of the fuel tank on the driver's side. I thought it was because I might have over filled the tank, but I do not "top off" the tank. Most recently, I filled the tank, then drove over 100 miles. The smell is still there. This could potentially be a major health/fire hazard.

Just noticed the smell of gasoline after fill up in my garage. Checked the Corvette fourm and this is a known issue in this vehicle and GM has been fixing the issue if the car is under 10 years old as a warranty sadly my car is now over 10 years old and only has 75,000 miles on it. I really think this should be a recall issue. I did schedule a service check to test the system and was quoted $900 to do a smoke test on the fuel system. It looks like GM has changed the plastic part that is cracking with a better plastic several time. I'm really worried about the car burning my home down and I'm keeping the fuel at half a tank.
