Complaint Summary
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Owner Narrative
Fuel supply lines near drivers rear wheel started leaking while engine is running. Strong odors of gasoline and significant puddle of fuel under the car after a short time of running. It appears to be excessive corrosion of the line near the supports, heat shield. This leak seams to be near the exhaust system of the car so could be a fire safety issue. Inside of a garage or other closed area, these fumes could lead to possible explosion from an ignitions source
