1 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 02/08/2021

I have a very strong gasoline smell coming from, inside and out side my car when it is stationionary. It seems to be worst, when I have more than a half tank of gas. The smell of gas is in my garage and inside my home when parked inside my garage. I made an appointment with the fremont Chevrolet dealer and dropped off my car two weeks ago at the dealer. My service adviser edger sat in my car and said to me he noticed a strong gasoline smell in side my car. Edger told me they would have to do a test to make sure the gas fuel module was the problem. They did a test and edger told me the fuel module was defective and they would fit it because there was a safety bulletin concerning this issue and my vehicle fell under the guidelines to be repaired free of charge. Two weeks later, my car is still at the dealership unprepaired. They told me they are still waiting for the part to come in.
