Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problems of the 2010 Chevrolet Malibu

My 2010 chevy Malibu is having fuel system issues. The vehicle is leaking gas from the fuel tank located in the back of the vehicle near the exhaust system. The vehicle tends to leak when it is not in motion.

Tl- the contact owns a 2010 Chevrolet Malibu. The contact stated that there was an abnormal fuel odor in the vehicle after the vehicle was filled up with gas. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the fuel tank and neck filler were leaking and needed to be replaced. The manufcautrer was not notified of the issue. A recall was issued out for the failure NHTSA campaign number: 12v459000 (fuel system, gasoline) however this vehicle's VIN, make , model, and year were not included. The failure mileage was 25,069.

After parking my 2010 chevy Malibu, I can smell gasoline at the rear driver's side exterior (gas tank is on opposite side). This has been occurring for some time since I purchased the vehicle in March 2013. I don't know when I first smelled it. I also have had poor gas mileage since I purchased the vehicle. I finally mentioned it to someone and they told me to look up recall notices. There is no recall but I found many similar complaints from other chevy Malibu owners.
