Upon start up, all the lights on the dashboard lit up. Fcw failure noted on the digital display. Acceleration non existent in this state. Several restarts (34 was the max), no lights on the dash.

My 2013 is at 38,000 miles and i smell fuel when the vehicle is being started. I show a recall for this issue but when i enter my vin# it says my vehicle isn't in the recall. Something is going on and i think it needs looked into. If this is the same issue that caused the recall for some models, it's odd that it's also happening to mine but my vehicle isn't in the recall. *tr
