NHTSA complaint: 2001 SUBARU OUTBACK — FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
IN COLD WEATHER OUR CAR BEGAN EMITTING A VERY STRONG FUEL SMELL IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. OUR SUBARU DEALER DENIES THERE IS ANYTHING WRONG THAT WOULD WARRANT A SAFETY RECALL OR BULLETIN. THEY WILL NOT ACCEPT IT IS A DESIGN DEFECT WHEN CLEARLY THE FUEL LINES BEGIN TO LEAK IN COLD (SUB-FREEZING) TEMPERATURES. AS GASOLINE IS A SERIOUS CARCINOGEN AND EXPOSURE TO ITS FUMES CAUSES BRAIN DAMAGE, THIS SHOULD BE REGARDED AS AN EXTREMELY SERIOUS HEALTH ISSUE. *TR
