Started smelling raw gasoline when driving and stationary. . . Discovered fuel line leaking/seeping gas on driver side in front of rear tire, above the hot exhaust. Fuel tank straps are also rusted. This is very common in Hhr and cobalt - need to recall before someone dies in a car fire! note: it can be seen in the attached photo - the discoloration of the metal is from it being saturated in gasoline.
