Yeah it's dangerous! It's a leak-
besides the obvious fire hazard, it's very bad to inhale those fumes

Well, there is the obvious answer to this, involving spicy restaurant food, but I will avoid the obvious question and move on to the serious one.
If you are truly smelling gasoline in your car, then you may have a damaged fuel line. Open your hood and start sniffing, with the engine off. Also look under your car for signs of gas leaking.
If you continue to smell gas, I strongly suggest you get your car to a mechanic and have him track down the source of the smell. A gasoline leak can lead to an engine fire and the need to buy a whole new car. Maintenance is usually cheaper than replacement.

I had a friend who's car had the same "gas smell." It was due to a leaky seal near the gas tank.
Not only are you losing gas (which is expensive enough as it is), but you risk your car catching on fire!!!
This is something you should take to a mechanic, or more reliably your dealership immediately.

What do you recommend by utilising risky? a motorbike is far less risky than a automobile: a motorbike has fewer blocks on your being waiting to demonstrate screen the site visitors around you. a motorbike is smaller and greater agile than a automobile. consequently a motorbike is, for any specific individual, much less probable to be in touch in a collision. a motorbike is greater risky than a automobile: once you have a collision in a automobile you're risk-free by utilising a metallic cage. The statistical odds of walking faraway from a collision thoroughly unhurt is approximately 50-50. once you have a collision on a motorbike there isn't any risk-free practices. you would be harm, purely a depend of ways undesirable.

my friends mom had that problem it could be that something wasn't screwed on tight at your last repair or oil change leak, crack remember were you got the car fixed last time take it back make them give it a good check it's mostly something wasn't done right but i would get that checked out fast because it might be the carbon dioxide or minoxide (im not really sure which) from the gas and it could be a serious problem.

You may want to have the engine serviced before the engine gasket wears out completely. If you keep driving it for another 80 miles or so,the engine cap will be warped beyond repair. Hoping the best for you,and also be careful where you spend your money at.

I think it would be the best if you take your car to a service and get the right answer there.That would be the best.
Yes it might be dangerous.
But maybe its just some gas or oil dropped in by accedant or something.

VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AND THE LEAK COULD BE COMING FROM ANYWHERE, I WOULD TRY FINDING AN INDEPENDENT AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR SHOP INSTEAD OF THE DEALER OR ANY CHAIN STORE BECAUSE YOU WILL BE OVERALL MORE PLEASED WITH THE PERSONAL SERVICE THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE.

It definitely is dangerous! It is probably leaking either in the hood or the tank.

tank may have a crack. You could have spilt some on the car. Injectors may have a problem.
