Every time I drive my 2003 Baja in cold weather it smells like raw fuel. It makes me feel light headed and dizzy. The sell comes in thru the vents and fills the cab with fumes. The fuel leaks out onto the top of the engine block from the fuel line creating a possible fire hazard. We've seen similar issues of fuel leaking from fuel lines under the intake manifold during cold conditions on numerous other Subaru models including the outback and forester. Subaru recall no. Wvk-21 for 2002-2003 Subaru WRX models resolves a fuel leak from the fuel line under the intake manifold during cold weather condition. Why wasn't all Subaru models included in this recall? it seems a lot of Subaru owners are having this problem. Https://www.facebook.com/makesubaruofamericafixtheirfuelleaks/ please fix this soon.
