Recently, 03/01/2021, filling gas tank to over 1/2 full on my parked 2007 c6 Corvette, with 30,360 miles, parked vehicle caused strong interior gas odor. On further investigation and communication with gm, I was informed fuel pump was a known issue. The fuel pump was then redesigned to solve this issue; however, replacement of faulty fuel pump was only given a warranty extension instead of recall. Consequently, I was never given a notice of the dangerous condition that existed in my vehicle, which is now beyond that extended warranty period for specific parts; and, as an owner, I was never noticed of this known issue because it is not required unless it is a recall. Apparently the car has two tanks that are shared. When over 1/2 filled, gasoline can leak and puddle on top of the tanks. When moving, the gasoline can then leak down on the hot exhaust and cause a fire. I am now fearful of driving my car due to the gasoline vapors, and was advised by van Chevrolet to have the car towed for repair, as this issue could cause a fire or explosion, or the fumes could cause the driver to pass out and have an accident. The cost of this repair is over $2500! I would have had it repaired if it were a recall because I would have been notified of the hazard. Car was parked when I first noticed the problem and have not driven it since. The risk of a fire, explosion, or accident is too great until it is repaired! gm assigned case# 9-6616976804, but is currently informing that it is no longer covered. Since no notification was given to owners, owners were not aware of the issue until too late, saving gm millions of dollars, as they would have been responsible for replacing large numbers of the faulty fuel pump had a recall been issued which requires registering recalls with the gm dealers, and notifying the owners.
After filling up the fuel tank, a strong gas smell in the cabin of the vehicle. The smell remained and hasn't dispersed.
When I fill up vehicle of course with not over flowing or topping it off there is a strong smell of gas on driver side no signs of leak and smell is very noticeable in cabin as well. Smell is strong in garage when left in over night even when not filling up this issue has been there could have half a tank and maybe put additional 5 dollars to get to 3/4 tank issue is still there.
Corvette has had a problem with fuel smell coming from the car after you fill the tank. This issue is very serious. Fuel leaks out the top of the tanks, and will then drip down the back side onto the hot exhaust. If ignored this could result in a fire and possible death. If parked overnight in a garage, the vapor will fill the garage and could easily be triggered into an explosion and fire from a gas water heater or other ignition source. I can't park my c6 in my garage without it filling the entire garage with fumes so strong that I can't even keep my dogs in there. The vapors then seep into the house. The car is unsafe to drive, and unsafe to leave parked.
There is a leak at the top of my fuel tank. Whenever the tank is 3/4 fill or greater, fuel sloshes out of the top of the tank and pools on top of the tank and sometimes drips down onto the exhaust. . Parking the car overnight in the garage is filling my garage with fuel vapors and I am concerned the dripping fuel may be a fire risk.
Fuel leak coming from tank after filling more than 3/4. Very strong gas smell in garage and or vehicle cabin. Leaks when vehicle is sitting.
Have gas fumes in the car after filling the tank. Will dissipate after 100 miles will smell the fumes when moving, turning corners, and stationary after using the car.
