Description of the problem | There is a burning smell/ strong odor of exhaust fumes entering the vehicle when driving . It seems to occur more often or become stronger when accelerating up hills or when accelerating onto the highway, but can occur when driving at any time. My wife, myself, family members and friends who have ridden in or driven the vehicle have smelled it. The smell can be stronger to passengers in the rear seating areas. This has occurred on numerous occasions since my wife has leased the vehicle on 01/20/17 and has been to the dealer twice to be checked ,but they cannot find anything wrong. The vehicle will be returning to the dealer this week (09/06/17) again to be checked . |
