2009 Corvette z06, very strong odor of fuel both in cab and outside of vehicle!!! looked under car on drivers side and was able to see wet/damp areas around fuel tank. What really sucks, is that I cant even park it in my garage. The fumes are so strong, I'm afraid something will cause the fumes to ignite and put everyone's lives in danger. I looked on alldatadiy and found a recall/service bulletin however, when I called the dealership, they said based on my VIN# that my car was not affected. . . . Wtf!!!!! how can it not be? my car is doing exactly what the recall/service bulletin says.

There is a strong gas odor coming from the fuel filler tube (driver's side) area and an even stronger smell on the inside of the cockpit. But there are no visible leaks on the driver way (inclined) or garage floor. And there are no visible wet areas under the tanks or tank shields. Gas odor is related to gm bulletin #15682 dated July 2016.

Very strong gas smell when the tank is filled. Filled garage with smell. Was afraid to start car. Pushed out of garage and let sit for 2 days. Started and drove to dealership.

Fuel leak from top of tank drivers side - dangerous.

Strong gasoline smell whenever the tank is more than half full. So strong that I can smell gasoline in the house if the car has been parked in the attached garage overnight. I am concerned that the high concentration of gasoline vapor might b e a fire hazard to the house. I am also concerned that gasoline could touch the exhaust and catch fire while driving. No odor whatsoever when the tank is below half full.

After fuel tank is filled past 1/2 full, smell of fuel in my garage until fuel capacity goes below 1/2 full.

I've noticed a fuel smell coming from the vehicle after driving. My mechanic found leaking fuel from the top of the gas tank. There was a recall for this defect.

This is my second complaint. When I fill my gas tank above 1/2 a tank I get a strong smell of gasoline in my garage and in my car. I filed a complaint with the ag and watson chevy had my car for 4 days and supposedly fixed the issue. It is now back. Every time I fuel up and I do not fill my car to full only just above half a tank and I still get this strong smell.

Heavy fuel smell coming from the left fuel tank.

I called koons Chevrolet in tyson corner virginia where I porched it and described the problem to them , I took the car to them . I was told they have dignoset the problem , after few days the contact me and told me that the fuel modul was leaking on driver side fuel tank and there is a special coverage bullten warranty for just that filar on 07-09 Corvette of the same model as mine. They told they would order the parts and call me when the came in , parts were in week and made an appointment and took it back to be repaired under warranty . They called me the next morning and told me because my VIN # was not included in special coverage bullten that they would not be repairing the car under warranty . I was very upset no worried about my safety and others by having a car that leaks all over the road . They told me it would cost me $2700 to be repaired and want me to pay for it . I told me that I don't have $2700 and what should I do ? they dealer told me to not to put much fuel in it unbelivable to me .

Leaking fuel is no joke especially if I'm in traffic a day somebody throws a cigarette under car I would lose my son or hurt others . Please help me with this situation before it's too later . I don't know what else to do .

A strong fuel odor is coming out from the drivers side rear. Whenever I fill up the odor is present. When I'm under 1/2 tank odor is gone. It's only when I have a full tank. Gm has issued a "special coverage adjustment" for 2007-2013 Corvettes. The # is n150682. Gm said mine is currently not covered even though I have all the same symptoms. My car is a 2009 with only 37,000 miles.

Dealer indicates a leak in the driver side fuel tank. Strong smell of gas every time vehicle is refueled. Vehicle has approx. 39000 miles and has never been in an accident.

Purchased a 2009 Corvette in Feb. 2016 from private sale. When purchased seller said he has been smelling gas for a long time so he parked it outside and covered it. I took vech. To fill up with fuel no gas smell drove home parked in my house garage. Around 8:pm wife woke me up around 7:am next morning said gas smell in garage very bad can hardley breath. Went out and sure enough bad open all doors. Looked under car and hood no sign of gas or not a strong smell. Soon as I get buy fuel filler drivers side smell very strong. Went on Corvette form they was a saftey alert about the whole thing dozen of complaint about the gas smell. Still smells if you fill it over half a tank so have to keep car outside and cover. Gm needs to do something about this before someone burns down there home or car up. I was told gm is well awhare of this don't understand why they don't have a recall. Always trusted gm just bought new silverodo love it please try and get this fixed don't need to here about any more people getting hurt or worse because some dude sitting in his office dosent really care.

Strong gasoline smell when tank is more than 1/2 full. Can't leave vehicle parked in enclosed places, or drive with the windows up. Gas smell is strongest around the drivers side rear tire.

After intermittently smelling fuel in our garage I crawled under the vehicle and noticed a wet spot on the fuel tank. The dealer found a cracked fuel tank. It separated along a seam. It was leaking fuel when it was over 1/2 full. The vehicle has less than 40,000 miles and I feel it should have been covered as a recall as I have seen many owners have reported a fuel smell. This is an extremely dangerous manufacturing defect.

When I park my vehicle in my garage I have a strong gasoline smell from car. Especially when I fill my gas tank. Afraid one of tanks is leaking may drip on hot exhaust and explode.

Fuel smell comming from gas tank went to dealer where I purchased the car from it ws a used car dealer told me it would it would about 4,000 doller to fix it was a cracked filler line and crossover tube after a lot of complaning about it ended up costing me 1200 dollers.

Smelling gas when I fill up my gas tank.

When I fill my car with gas above 1/2 a tank. I notice my fuel gauge goes to full and then to empty and I get a warning light that states service fuel system. I also notice a strong odor of gas when I park in my garage.

Hi, I bought the Corvette used. The first time I filled it all the up with gas I noticed a very strong gas smell the next day in my garage. I hoped it would go away or it was just something I wasn't aware of about the car since I just bought it used. The next time I filled it up the same thing the whole garage smelled like gas the next day. Did some research online and found out there are allot of the c6 Corvettes with this defect. If you fill the car up over half full gas leaks from the top of the tank down the inside and on to the tailpipe. Called the dealer and they refused to fix it or recall the defective part. Im afraid of two possible things happening either the car catching fire or the fumes igniting my gas water heater thats in the garage as well. Hope you guys can get something done about it. Thanks for your time.

Gasoline smell really bad in cab. No evidence of fuel leak on garage floor. Seems to be coming from top of tank, maybe. . Garage fills with these gasoline fumes. I am concerned about the damage this could cause. Seems an on going issue with 2008-2009 year models. Waiting your reply. .

Every time you fill up your gas tank to full there is some gas leakage and car smells of gas. I stop at 3/4 and do not seem to have a problem. I have 3 gm cars and this is the only one that has this problem.
