    DT*: THE CONTACT STATED AFTER DRIVING, THE VEHICLE LEAKS GASOLINE AT A SLOW RATE. THIS HAPPENED EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE WAS SHUT OFF. UPON INSPECTION UNDER THE HOOD, IT WAS OBSERVED THAT THE LEAK WAS NEAR SOME WIRES. THE VEHICLE LEAKED APPROXIMATELY 1/2 LITER OF GASOLINE BEFORE IT WAS TAKEN TO A SERVICE DEALER, WHERE THEY DETERMINED THE LEAK WAS NORMAL.
