I DIDN'T KNOW WHERE IT WAS COMING FROM SO DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING OF IT AND DROVE THE CAR A COUPLE MORE TIMES AND EACH TIME AFTER UPON LEAVING THE CAR SMELLED AGAIN A STRONG ODOR OF GAS. I DECIDED TO VISUALLY INSPECT THE UNDERSIDE OF THE CAR AND SAW GAS LEAKING FROM IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER SIDE REAR TIRE. I QUIT DRIVING THE CAR AND LOOKED ONLINE TO SEE IF OTHER PEOPLE WERE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE AND THERE WERE. I CALLED A COUPLE CHEVY DEALERSHIPS AND ASKED IF THEIR WAS A RECALL AND WAS TOLD TO BRING IT IN AND THEY WOULD HAVE TO INSPECT IT TO DETERMINE IF IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY AND IF SO THEY WOULD FIX IT FOR FREE. KNOWING THE CAR WAS UNSAFE AND VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE I RENTED A CAR DOLLY AND BROUGHT IT TO A CHEVY DEALERSHIP APPROXIMATELY 35 MILES AWAY. AFTER INSPECTION WE WERE TOLD IT WAS NOT THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY BUT THE GAS LINES. WE HAD TO PAY $634 TO HAVE THE CAR REPAIRED. REPAIR WAS DONE IN FEBRUARY 2020.THE CAR HAD ROUGHLY 88,000 MILES ON IT AT THE TIME PROBLEM NOTICED.

Summary
I'VE HAD MY CAR TWO YEARS AND MULTIPLE THINGS HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE SINCE PURCHASE. REGARDLESS, MY MOST RECENT CONCERN IS MY HILL START NOT AVAILABLE LIGHT IS ON AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT IS ON AND WILL NOT GO OFF. I SENT MY CAR TO A DEALERSHIP TO DETERMINE THE ISSUE AND DISCOVERED THE SASM NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. HOWEVER THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THIS DOES NOT BECOME AN ISSUE UNLESS THE CAR HAS BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. MY CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT NOW NOR PRIOR TO MY PURCHASE. CAR FAX SHOW NO RECORDS OF ANY DAMAGE TO THE PHYSICAL BODY OF THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP HAD NO OTHER EXPLANATION AS TO WHY THESE LIGHTS WOULD HAVE BEEN ACTIVATED AND I'M VERY CONCERNED THAT IT WILL CAUSE FURTHER DAMAGE TO MY CAR. AGAIN I'VE ONLY HAD THE CAR TWO YEARS AND WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IT LONGER, IF SOMETHING CAN BE EXPLAINED ABOUT THIS ISSUE.
