: the contact stated one year ago the vehicle was taken to the dealership for an oil change, and an odor of gas appeared when the heater was switched on. The dealer discovered the fuel injectors were corroded and fuel was leaking from the injectors, fuel line, and the pressure regulator. And replaced. Them. The replacements were temporary because the problem recurred and the parts were on back order.
