Engine And Engine Cooling Problems of SAAB 9-2x

At below freezing temperatures, the fuel line leaks raw gasoline onto the engine, near the turbocharger, creating a fire risk. The evaporated gasoline is immediately pumped into the passenger cabin creating a health risk. This is a known issue for the Subaru wrx and a recall was issued. The 2005 SAAB 9-2x is mechanically identical in this regard to the wrx, but no recall was issued. Details: https://forums. Nasioc. Com/forums/showthread. . Read more...

During cold weather, fuel lines leak/seep raw fuel into engine compartment. If left untreated, could potentially cause engine fire, leading to injury and death. Please get Subaru/SAAB to fix ASAP.

Vehicle interior smells heavily of gasoline after sitting outside in freezing temperatures. Fuel smell persists at low speeds and seems to be coming from underhood.

When temperatures get near freezing, there is a strong gasoline smell coming from the engine compartment that seeps into the cabin. It seems like the clamps that hold the rubber fuel lines may come loose over time and the cold causes the lines to contract allowing the fuel to leak.
