My vehicle paint is two years old from factory, has bubbled and the clear coat is lifting. The paint is so cheap that any rock that hits it, it gets chipped. It is a concern for me because honda refuses to cover body paint under warranty and I am worried in a year or two, it will rust the metal of it not serving its purpose of protecting the body of the vehicle.

I've been smelling gas in the cabin of the vehicle only during start up and its been happening for the past couple of weeks. The car is parked in a heated parking garage when the smell occurs and it will also happen outside in a parking lot after the car sits for a little bit. You can also smell a strong odor of gas when you open the hood when the engine is cold.
