Everytime I use the heater in my car, I get an overwhelming smell of gasoline in the interior which is causing severe headaches. What could be causing this??

There would have to be a leak in fuel system, or a problem in the EVAP system.

Start by checking the fuel system underhood. Look at all fuel connections, fuel injector connections, fuel rail and fuel pressure regulator.

Is your check engine light on?
