NHTSA Complaint #10724645 — 2009 NISSAN SENTRA

APPROX. 5/26/15 AFTER OPENING AND TRYING TO FUEL MY CAR AT THE GASOLINE STATION I NOTICED THE FUEL FILLER TUBE WAS LOOSE. THIS STATION (USA GASOLINE) HAD RECENTLY INSTALLED NEW NOZZLES ON THE GAS PUMPS. DUE TO THE LOOSE FILLER TUBE ON MY CAR, I HAD TO DRIVE TO AN ARCO STATION TO COMPLETE THE FUELING OF MY CAR. ON 6/10/15 DURING NORMAL MAINTENANCE (OIL CHANGE, CHECK FLUIDS, ETC) I ASKED THE SHOP TO REPAIR THE LOOSE FUEL FILLER TUBE. THEY REFUSED, SAYING I HAD TO HAVE THE REPAIR COMPLETED AT AN AUTHORIZED NISSAN DEALER. I DROVE TO THE NISSAN SHOP, THEY SAID I HAD TO CALL NISSAN NORTH AMERICA FOR AUTHORIZATION. I NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL OR ANY NOTICE ABOUT FUEL DELIVERY PROBLEMS, MY NISSAN WARRANTY EXPIRED 3/25/15. SHOULDN'T FUEL SYSTEMS BE COVERED UNDER SOME TYPE OF SAFETY DESIGNATION? MY NISSAN SENTRA 2009 HAS LESS THAN 30,000 MILES ON ODOMETER, SHOULDN'T FUEL SYSTEMS PROBLEMS BE CONSIDERED A DEFECT IN DESIGN OR WORKMANSHIP?
