Fuel line that runs from the fuel injectors to the fuel rail are leaking causing the car to die. But the fuel is leaking onto a hot motor which could catch fire. This car has this same recall for other vins. Of the same year. But my car does not fall into that category of vin #s. *nm

Gas fumes leaked throughout the vehicle. Gas smell became overwhelming when vehicle was driven for awhile. Dealer indicated that fuel was leaking from the fuel injectors. *ak

A private mechanic examined vehicle for a fuel leak and determined that leak originated from fuel injectors. Manufacturer informed consumer that vehicle was covered under recall campaign 95i006000. However, dealership stated that this recall only applied to 6 cylinder engine. Repairs will be done at consumer's expense since this vehicle ha a 4 cylinder engine. Please provide any additional information / attachments.*ak

Fuel injectors leak. Nissans "voluntary recall campaign" does not include the ca20e engine which is installed in my vehicle. The fuel pump wiring is exposed to the elements and shorted out on my vehicle. *nlm

NoNoN NoneNone19990305

Consumer noticed a leakage coming from the fuel injection system that has a hole, and fuel is leaking on the top of the engine. It can start a fire while consumer is driving. *ak

NoNoN NoneNone19990120

When i bought my car it only had 40000 miles on it so all the injectors are original. All of the injectors are leaking gas all over my engine. We contacted nissan because the fuel injectors are listed as recalled on your website but it is only for the 6 cylinder model. I believe it is also affecting my 4 cylinder as well because they should not be doing this. I have not done anything to affect the performance of the fuel injectors. It seems like a strange coincidence that my fuel injectors are exhibiting the same problems as the 6 cylinder injectors.

Would smell gas when getting into vehicle. Sometimes occurs when driving. Took vehicle to dealership after taking to independent mechanic. Was told fuel injectors needed replacing. Manufacturer said vehicle was not recalled & will not catch fire. *ak

Received recall notice on seat belts, took vehicle to dealer and they tested the seat belts and said there was no problem. Called manufacturer and they indicated that the seat belts should have been replaced and there should not have been a test done on the seat belts. *ak
