NHTSA recall 06V003000
Fuel System, Gasoline · Nissan North America, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: On certain sport utility vehicles, due to the location of the forward edge of the fuel tank, in the event that a vehicle front tire runs over a small, sharp object in the road, catches it and propels it towards the rear of the vehicle, it may strike and puncture the fuel tank.
Why it matters: A punctured tank could increase the risk of a fire.
The fix: Dealers will install protectors in front of the tank free of charge. The recall began on March 20, 2006.
