INFINITI QX60 fuel smell issue with fuel leaking into the evap canister, no fix from manufacturer on INFINITI QX60

Some INFINITI QX60 owners report experiencing a fuel smell issue due to fuel leaking into the EVAP canister, which poses significant safety risks. These owners note that gasoline fumes are toxic and can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning, making it vital to address any fuel-related problems quickly. Additionally, even if fuel leaks are not visibly apparent, they can create a serious fire hazard as gasoline evaporates rapidly and may hide in areas like the engine bay and undercarriage. If a gas smell is detected inside the vehicle, it typically indicates a leak that requires immediate attention to prevent potential ignition and fire hazards. Furthermore, leaks or disconnections in the EVAP system hoses, along with damage to the charcoal canister, can exacerbate these issues. Owners are advised to ensure that any repairs are thorough and effective, potentially utilizing tools like a "smoke" leak detection machine or CONSULT-III plus for accurate leak checks. If unresolved by the manufacturer, seeking assistance from a qualified mechanic to diagnose and repair EVAP system problems is recommended for safety and proper vehicle function.
