Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problems of the 2010 Chevrolet Corvette

I noticed the heavy smell of gas fumes after putting gas in my vet. The smell is most prominent when the car is off and parked in the garage. I am sure that the smell is always present and that being parked in a parking lot or outside dissipates the smell. I have tried filling the tank half way to see if that would help but the smell of gas is still there. It is strongest in the rear hatch area on the drivers side. The smell in garage is so strong I have to leave the garage door open to vent. I am fearful that the fumes may ignite my gas water heater which is located about 7-8ft away or start a car fire if gas hits the hot exhaust pipe. This is truly something that chevy needs to review to see if faulty equipment was placed in the c6 models. I have had the vet for 4 years it is a 2010 and the mileage is just over 55k. I just noticed this issue about 3 months ago, but it seems to be getting worse. I hope that my property is not damaged by a fuel source originating from the car or worse yet, a death related to an explosion or fire. ## #vpic# 1 - check digit (9th position) does not calculate properly #vpic#.

After filling up my tank, I smell a strong gas smell primarily from the left rear (where I fill up) side of the car. It fills my garage with strong fumes and I don't feel save starting it, much less driving it. I don't smell anything in the cabin, only when it's in the garage. Also leads me to believe I'm loosing gas and fuel economy so that's a drag. I've looked at possible causes, and it could be many different things so it's currently uknown as far as what part is exactly wrong. I smell the fumes when the car is stationary.
