Most new cars, and I can say for a fact the last 3 I've bought (Enclave, Touareg, Sequoia) all had that 'new car burn in' smell everytime we parked the car for the first 500+ miles. I've been told repeatedly by dealers that this is related to today's uncarriage coatings that are applied. I don't recall smelling it when in the car and stopped, but everytime we got out for the first month or so, we could smell it. My garage floor is spotless, so no leaks.

Yes, They did fix the leaks. Took about 4 days, but I told the dealer not to hurry. They were great, let me talk with the mechanic, he explained there is a seal that is leaking internally on the torque converter on some models. The entire tranny was removed and fixed. Not a great feeling for a brand new car, but they did a great job.
 
Just had me bring it in for a checkup to their work and everything is fine. I guess I am dissapointed it happened, but very satisfied with the dealer and Buick's support.
 
Still drives great. Never noticed the difference in the feel on the road.
