Consumer Description

MY 1992 MAXIMA IS LEAKING FUEL NEAR THE FILLER TUBE. THE DEALER SAYS THE FUEL FILLER TUBE IS CORRODED AND THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY NEEDS REPLACEMENT. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THE MAXIMA YEARS 89-94 HAVE A RECALL FOR THE CORROSION OF THE FUEL FILLER TUBE, BUT ONLY FOR CERTAIN STATES (NC IS NOT INCLUDED). NISSAN REFUSES TO PAY BECAUSE THEY SAY MY VIN IS NOT IN THEIR DATABASE FOR THE RECALL, BUT THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND I DO NOT SEE HOW THE REGISTERED STATE OF THE CAR AFFECTS THE RECALL STATUS. THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN WITH WEATHER SIMILAR TO THE STATES LISTED ON THE RECALL.*AK
