NHTSA recall 10V330000
Fuel System, Gasoline · Nissan North America, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: These vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 301, "fuel system integrity." When the vehicle was rotated following a rear moving barrier crash test as required, the amount of fuel leakage exceeded the allowable limits.
Why it matters: Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.
The fix: Dealers will develop a special protector and attach it to the gasoline recirculation tube at the location of the filler neck connector. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on September 13, 2010.
