Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On jan. 5, 2004 as i was driving my 2002 subaru wrx i could smell fuel coming in from the vents. i pulled over and popped the hood to get a very strong scent of fuel around the intake manifold. subaru has issued a tsb on this, but why there is no recall is still bothersome to me. leaking fuel in the engine compartment is not a good thing and this needs to be a recall. there have been several complaints from other wrx owners on this same issue.*ak
