When I turn my car on at anytime during the day there's a gas smell inside the car. It goes away after a few minutes but when I stop at a stop sign or stop light it comes back. I can smell it when I get out of the car as well. I don't smell it before I get in the car in the morning though. The dealership service department didn't find anything wrong with it. Any suggestions?

I don't know what I could tell you, that would be better than the dealership? I'd have to check fuel lines, under the vehicle and in the engine compartment for leaks. Other possibilities, leaking fuel injector/s, leaking pressure regulator. Maybe an emissions leak for gas tank fumes?
