Summary of safety defect: active, unmitigated toxic gasoline vapor leak inside the cabin of a 2004 Porsche Boxster, presenting an acute fire and toxic chemical exposure hazard upon filling the tank and starting the vehicle. Dealer & corporate evasion: ignored warnings: dealership intake and repair orders (such as frank's automotive ro #xxx) logged raw fuel odors but omitted proper fuel system diagnostics. Compromised inspection: authorized personnel at Porsche south austin (psa), including service advisor [xxx], used "gold certified" credentials to falsely clear the vehicle without remediation. Corporate denial: in case #xxx dated xxx pcna executive case specialist [xxx] formally refused to authorize an independent diagnostic inspection, hiding behind the franchise model to abandon consumer safety. Requested action: NHTSA should open a defect inquiry into unmitigated fuel vapor leaks and investigate authorized dealer practices of overriding safety concerns via unverified test-drive clearances. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

Was driving a 2001 Porsche Boxster when lost complete power. Car towed into dealership. Was informed that my air intake had been sucking up cigarettes and causing a series of small fires in my car. Air intake has no screen to protect things from getting in -- just a paper air filter which can burn if a cigarette becomes stuck on the filter. Was never informed that this could happen and have never heard of this happening but dealership service advisor has heard of it.
