Hi,
Got a weird issue here. Just peeked at my oil level, and it’s got a super strong whiff of gasoline! My ‘18 Hybrid's got about 62k miles on it, and I did an oil change around 5k miles ago. Has anyone else dealt with something like this? Should I be worried about this? Tnx.
 
Is the check engine light on? If not, then that's normal from exhaust gases. I would take it to an oil changer service and ask for an opinion, only to get rid of the concerns.
 
Uhm a gasoline smell in the oil could indicate a fuel leak or an issue with the fuel system. It’s best to get it checked out by a mechanic soon to avoid any potential damage.
