It sounds like bullshit to me because when you spill a bit of gas when you're filling the tank, it doesn't smell like that for days. Today will be a week. And all this is after the fact that they said that the smell was gone before I picked it up.
I'm guessing that most people that had their pump replaced didn't have this issue or else there'd be far more complaints about it and the only post similar to mine is about a car burning to the ground. I have a longish drive later today and I'll see how it goes. If I don't notice a difference by tomorrow morning when I run some errands, I'm taking it back to the dealer in the afternoon. I already have a case through corporate and frankly, I'm surprised as hell that they had even bothered to send me a survey after having me wait 7.5 hours at the dealership with no loaner. I'm already not a happy camper and they're going to need to make this right. I need to be compensated for the 3 hours/150 miles worth of traveling because they screwed it up at the very least.
