Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On 1 or 2 occasions in the past couple years i have smelled a gas fumes during very cold weather on my 2002 subaru wrx wagon. i was not often or very strong, so i did not pay much attention. this winter it has been happening more, any time the temperature gets into the low 20's, it is a much stronger smell and lasts quite a while (several minutes). i did some digging on your site and found action number pe04002. i plan to visit my dealer and have the service bulletin completed, but wanted to make you aware that the problem may get worse over time, i currently have 66,000 miles on the vehicle and have driven it since july 2001. *jb
