PLEASE DO NOT WRITE IN ALL CAPS, it is annoying. None of us like to be "yelled" at.

Check 2 places:

Pull up the carpet behind the rear seat and remove the access plates to the fuel pump and sender. Check for wet fuel, the seals could go bad.

Near the right rear wheel, check (feel by hand) the filler pipe to the tank. Next to the main pipe is a small pipe for the displaced air when filling the tank. On some models, they come loose near the tank and the fumes go up to the cabin of the car.
