I had noticed that when I filled gas tank there was a strong odor of gasoline inside vehicle for several days. I had the vehicle checked by the shop that does my oil changes and they stated that it was the filler hose and it should be covered under a recall. The local dealership states that since the repair was made under the recall in 2002 that it was not covered again. Repair part was apparently defective. The repair cost will be $150.
