2008 PONTIAC G6 Complaints

STRONG SMELL OF FUEL WHEN GETTING CLOSE TO REAR OF CAR OR WHEN IN MY GARAGE. GAS MILEAGE HAS DROPPED SIGNIFICANTLY 15-16 MPG CITY NOW CAR TAKES LONGER TIME TO START. SEEMS THIS ISSUE WITH THE FUEL SYSTEM WAS NOT TAKEN CARE OF BY GMC FROM PREVIOUS YEARS...

PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT MOUNT SHORTED OUT. AFTER DOING RESEARCH, THIS SEEMS THAT IT IS NOT A LOCALIZED PROBLEM, AS NUMEROUS ONLINE RESOURCES SHOW THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM. THIS IS A GROSS SAFETY ISSUE THAT'S BEEN PREVALENT FOR AT LEAST FOUR YEARS, AND GMC HAS FAILED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
