Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Today was the third time that i have refueled the car and have noticed that there is a strong gas smell when i park the car in the garage. i have looked with a flash light under the car (left rear below the tire rim) and i see gas dripping out of where a tubing connects to the fuel tank. this is a rapid drip that leaves a puddle on the floor. i have been cautious to not "over-fill" and still the problem persists. *ak
