Upon initial start the entire cabin of the vehicle smells of raw gas, coming in through vents. This is especially worse when in reverse such as backing out of the driveway, also this is present when idling in park or drive, such as sitting at a stoplight. The smell is so strong you are forced to open the windows until the vehicle is moving again.

Vehicle smells like gas inside the cabin at idle. Also fills garage with the odor when parked overnight.
The cabin of my brand new vehicle fills with gas fumes randomly while the engine is running. The fumes fill the cabin while idling, starting, and driving down the road. The fumes are very strong and I do not feel safe driving this vehicle for any distance. The honda dealership service department and the honda tech center are aware of the problem but do not have a remedy.
