Rotten egg exhaust smell

On short trips around town there has a smell of rotten eggs in the exhaust of my 2009 Ford G6 E. Is it a problem, if so can this be fixed as the car is still under warranty?

It's usually a sign of a problem with the catalytic converter in the exhaust, but before doing anything else I would change the brand of fuel you're using and see if that has any effect on it.
