Details

What's wrong: Some fuel tank assemblies were not properly sealed during the manufacturing process. As a result, a small amount of gasoline may leak from the tank when it is full.

Why it matters: A gasoline leak in the presence of an ignition source may lead to a vehicle fire.

The fix: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel tanks as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on April 1, 2013.
