I apologize in advance if I’m not using the correct form to find out this information, hopefully if this does not reach correct person you can get to correct person for me. There has been a constant gas smell coming from gas tank area since we purchased vehicle in 2/2026. I thought it was just fumes from adding fuel but have since (while reaching in to retrieve grandbaby from back seat, I noticed a strong smell reaching towards driver door and a slight gas smell reaching inside vehicle. We have not been able to locate a gas leak anywhere just the strong gas smell. I’m trying to find out if this is a common occurrence for this vehicle or if there is a recall on it for this problem. Also if there has been a recall is there a way I can find out if the recall has been repaired. Thanks for any information you can provide.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
