9/22/2015 approximately around 3:30pm I went to start my car to leave my home to do an errand. I smell gasoline. I did not think anything about the smell. I proceed to driving to my destination. I was about mile from my home, another car pulled up beside me and honked horn informed me that car was leaking gas. I pulled over to check and saw car was leaking car. I open gas door to see if gas cap was off chambers. It was not. I turn car around and proceed back home. While heading back home other cars honked at me and informed me of leakage. After I got I had my husband to check the car. The when turned the ignition off the car stop leaking fuel. When turned back on it start leaking again. He saw the leakage from the fuel line. I called dealership (crest honda) and informed them of the problem. I had my car tow to dealership. 9/23/15 received a call from the dealership stating that a rodent had eaten through my fuel line. I have not had any issues with fuel system before 9/22/15. I have been driving the car daily. I had just driven the car on 9/21/15 doing errands and there were not any signs of smelling gas or fuel leakage. I do not believe a rodent could have eaten through my fuel overnight. There were 3 other cars sitting in my driveway overnight. I have been at my residence for 20 years never had this problem with a car of a rodent eating through a fuel line or any other items on the outside of my home. I purchased car brand new 2/2015 only owner.
