: the contact stated there was a strong odor of gasoline after the vehicle was parked. Upon further inspection underneath the vehicle, the contact discovered a small leak from the gasoline tank. Gasoline leakage was also present on the pavement where the vehicle was parked. There were no prior problems or any obvious road hazards. Although the leakage persisted, the vehicle was not seen by a dealer. Updated 3/9/2006 - a tiny pinhole size leak was found but the outside of the tank had no marks and showed no signs of damage.
