Description of the problem	Exhaust fumes fill cabin under hard acceleration. It has happened many times over the past few years, we purchased car new in ~ may 2015. Typically we can limit by accelerating slower than desired, which can be unsafe when entering the highway. After hard acceleration has ended and you maintain steady speed the fumes no longer seem to enter the cabin. Fumes can be very strong and rolling down windows is the only way to clear. It seems to mostly happen with rear air conditioning in turned on, but not sure. I put todays date below, but this happens often. I have read online and spoken to dealers in the past and no fix seems to be available so we have done are best to avoid with slow acceleration, but we can not be certain that no fumes are entering car. Both my wife and i seem to get more head aches than in the past and this could be the cause.
