Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: When the weather is under 20 degrees f, there are strong gasoline fumes inside the passenger compartment of the automobile. it makes me dizzy, causing the necessity to drive with the windows down in single digit temperatures. subaru is aware of this problem and they have issued a service bulletin, but they will not fix many cars that are no longer under warranty. this is a health concern, an emissions concern, and a safety concern, as raw gasoline is leaking somewhere in the engine bay.
