Could be dangerous... Check Fuel Pump Cover

It' easy to get to.
Pull your trunk floorboard, just two screws in hatchback, and pry the left circular cover below. If you do not see any moisture around the fuel pump cover underneath, you're probably ok there.
If you do see moisture, consider the electrical wires running through it and into the pump below. These carry a lot of juice at ignition. No alarm, I drove my slightly odorous car for months before i realized the cause. It was the fuel pump cover gasket leaking in mine. Careful with those plastic fuel lines/joints if you DIY!
Good Luck!
