SUBSTANTIAL RUST AND CORROSION DUE TO FUEL FILLER RUSTING WHICH WAS A RECALL. EXHAUST FUMES LEAKING INTO CABIN OF CAR. RISK OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING. DROPPED OFF AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR RECALL REPAIR, TOOK PICTURES OF MY CAR SENT PICTURES TO NISSAN FOR REPAIRS NOTHING DONE. I PICKED MY CAR UP AND GOT A CALL FROM DEALERSHIP TO DROP CAR OFF AGAIN. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE WHAT PROGRESS WAS AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY HAD TO TAKE PICTURES AND SEND TO NISSAN, BUT I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS DONE A MONTH AGO WHEN IT WAS DROPPED OFF THE FIRST TIME. FUEL FILLER IS SO RUSTED THAT IT FLAKES AWAY WHEN TOUCHED WHICH IS A MAJOR FIRE HAZARD.

THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM FREE OF CHARGE. AFTER PICKING UP THE CAR, WE COULD STILL SMELL THE GAS, BUT ONLY IN THE FRONT AND SOMETIMES INSIDE THE CABIN. WE CALLED NISSAN AND THEY TOLD US THEY FIXED THE CAR, AND TO BRING IT IN TO SEE WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT, WITH AN ADDITIONAL COST TO US. BEING THAT THE DEALERSHIP PRICES ARE HIGH, WE TOOK OUR CAR TO TWO SEPERATE MECHANICS, BOTH OF WHOM TOLD US THAT THE FUEL INJECTORS WERE LEAKING AND THAT THERE WAS A CAMPAIGN IN 1995 FOR THIS SPECIFIC PROBLEM WHICH IS VERY, VERY HARD TO FIND TO LOOK UP ON THE INTERNET. ALSO, NISSAN DID NOT TELL US OF THIS PROBLEM. DT

IT IS POSSIBLE FOR A MIXTURE OF MUD AND SALT TO GET TRAPPED BETWEEN THE FUEL FILLER TUBE AND WHEEL HOUSING. THE TRAPPED MUD AND SALT CAN RESULT IN CORROSION OF THE FUEL FILLER TUBE AND THE WHEEL HOUSING.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: SIGNIFICANT CORROSION OF THE FUEL FILLER TUBE MAY RESULT IN FUEL LEAKS WHICH IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE COULD RESULT IN A FIRE. IN ADDITION, THE LEFT REAR SEAT BELT RETRACTOR IS MOUNTED TO THE WHEEL HOUSING AND IN THE EVENT OF SIGNIFICANT CORROSION, AND THE MOUNTING COULD FAIL IN A VEHICLE CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THESE VEHICLES AND CORRECTIVE ACTION WILL BE TAKEN DEPENDING UPON THE EXTENT OF THE CORROSION.
