I have read on forums that there are also other drivers of the coupe platform that also have the same issue with the seatbelts not…

The fuel hose on the right hand side of the vehicle is leaking onto my engine. You can easily see this leak and smell it when unlocking the car in the morning. It is dangerous and could easily result in a fire.
