Hi, Lately during the warm weather here in Las Vegas I been getting smell fuel vapor smells in the car. It only Happens in the hot weather and in heavy stop and go traffic. Also I can only smell it when the AC is running, if I turn off the AC and roll down the windows the smell disappears. Any ideas? Thanks, Scott

Hi bigmombasa,

Check for fuel leakages under hood. When the A/C is turned ON with fresh air mode, fumes from underhood would be drawn into the cabin.
