Whether vehicle is stationary or moving it leaks fuel from the gas tank or the seals, or the brackets. We are only able to fill it a half tank at a time. Even then, turning a corner too sharp will cause the smell and leakage of fuel. We called and there is no recall on my vehicle. I do not see how there is not. It randomly started happening one day. I have been dealing with it for a while now. Hoping that a recall would come up or some type of investigation.
