Fuel leaking in front of rear driver side tire. Fuel order can be smelled getting in and out of the car as well. Big puddles of fuel once the car is parked. My fuel gauge goes down pretty rapidly because of this issue (obviously).

I purchased the vehicle new and there has been problems with the fuel gauge not registering full when it is filled up. Sometimes it goes to the 7/8 mark and sometimes it doesn't even go to there. They told me that it was a programming problem , and there should be an update for the computer. I took it in for the update and apparently it was not fixed. Also, the fan motor on the vent controls only works on high. I have had the car in to the dealer twice for this issue.
