Gas Smell?!?!

I have noticed lately that when I park in my garage in the morning the garage smells like gas. I remember that they had a recall on the gas line but I thought that was for the 04 models only cause my friend had to get his replaced. Is there a recall for the 03? What could be causing this problem? Should I bring her to the dealership to have it checked out?

not sure if your car falls under the recall or not. but just take a look.

remove your rear seat cushion.
remove the driverside inspection cover.
visual inspect for leaks.
you should have the oem clamp around the fuel line
if it is leaking, just remove the oem clamp and install a worm clamp and tighten her down.
