Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Starting two weeks ago, i have encountered a fuel smell when starting my car in cold weather. it's so bad i really am afraid to drive the vehicle at times and the odor inside the car is really bad. i opened the hood on the car one morning when i smelled it and it looked there was an overpowering smell of gasoline, almost like it was leaking somewhere. i am going to contact the dealership in my area as this cannot be safe to drive. *nm
