IT IS POSSIBLE FOR A MIXTURE OF MUD AND SALT TO GET TRAPPED BETWEEN THE FUEL FILLER TUBE AND WHEEL HOUSING. THE TRAPPED MUD AND SALT CAN RESULT IN CORROSION OF THE FUEL FILLER TUBE AND THE WHEEL HOUSING.
Consequence: SIGNIFICANT CORROSION OF THE FUEL FILLER TUBE MAY RESULT IN FUEL LEAKS WHICH IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE COULD RESULT IN A FIRE. IN ADDITION, THE LEFT REAR SEAT BELT RETRACTOR IS MOUNTED TO THE WHEEL HOUSING AND IN THE EVENT OF SIGNIFICANT CORROSION, AND THE MOUNTING COULD FAIL IN A VEHICLE CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THESE VEHICLES AND CORRECTIVE ACTION WILL BE TAKEN DEPENDING UPON THE EXTENT OF THE CORROSION.

I PURCHASED TWO NEW NANKANG TIRES FOR THE FRONT WHEELS ON MY 1991 NISSAN STANZA ON 8/11/05. ON 8/16/05 WHILE DRIVING TOWARD WASHINGTON ON OREGON I-84, THE LEFT FRONT TIRE EXPERIENCED A BLOWOUT OF THE SIDEWALL, CAUSING THE CAR TO CLIMB THE CENTER DIVIDER. I MANAGED TO BRING THE CAR UNDER CONTROL WITHOUT ROLLING, BUT I INJURED MY BACK AND LEG IN THE PROCESS. *NM

FUEL INJECTORS ARE LEAKING GAS FROM THE INJECTOR SEALS. MY BROTHER OWNS A GEO PRIZM WITH A TOYOTA MOTOR IN IT WITH ALMOST 300,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM EVER. MY NISSAN STANZA ONLY HAS 133,000 ON IT AND I HAVE SEEN COMPLAINTS ON WEB FORUMS ABOUT 240SX WITH SAME KA24E SOHC MOTOR HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH LESS MILEAGE ON THEM. THEY SWITCHED TO THE KA24DE DOHC ENGINE IN LATER YEAR STANZA'S. I THINK THEY ALSO DID SO ON THE 240SX TOO, BUT NOT SURE WHICH YEARS THIS HAPPENED. I KNOW THE STANZA USED KA24E MOTOR FROM 1990 TO 1992 PRODUCTION YEARS AND THEN SWITCHED TO THE KA24DE AFTER WHICH COULD POSSIBLY HAVE DIFFERENT INJECTOR SETUP THEN THE KA24E WHICH IS WHAT I HAVE. *JB

I AM CURRENTLY HAVING A PROBLEM WITH MY FEUL TANK LEAKING. I LOOKED ON LINE AND NOTICED THE CARS IN THE NORTHERN PART OF THE U.S. WERE RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM. WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY ALL CARS WERE NOT RECALLED AND IF IT CAN STILL BE REPLACED. THANK-YOU.

FUEL INJECTOR(S) ARE LEAKING RAW FUEL. THE MANUFACTURER PRESENTLY HAS A RECALL CAMPAIGN TO REPLACE LEAKING FUEL INJECTORS ON VARIOUS MAKES & MODELS UP TO 1988 MODEL YEAR. IT SEEMS TO ME TO BE A SIMILAR PROBLEM TO WHICH I AM EXPERIENCING ON MY VEHICLE. HOWEVER, THE MANUFACTURER'S REP. I SPOKE TO AT THE RECALL CAMPAIGN TELEPHONE NUMBER STATING MY VEHICLE WAS NOT PART OF THE PRESENT CAMPAIGN; I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT & HOPE FOR A POSSIBLE FUTURE RECALL CAMPAIGN ON MY VEHICLE. I AM WORRIED THAT CONDITION MAY BECOME WORSE UNTIL SUCH TIME AND POSE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD. I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS SINCE VEHICLE IS PARKED WITHIN AN ATTACHED GARAGE DIRECTLY UNDER MY CHILDREN'S BEDROOM. *AK
THE FUEL INJECTORS ON MY 1991 NISSAN STANZA WERE LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE PROBLEM STARTED WHEN I WAS SMELLING STRONG GASOLINE FUMES INSIDE THE CAR. AFTER AN INSPECTION OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT, THE GASOLINE SMELL WAS STRONGEST NEAR THE FUEL INJECTOR PORTS. NOT WANTING TO RISK AN ENGINE FIRE AND BREATHING OF GASOLINE FUMES - AND TO AVOID DANGER, I TOOK THE CAR TO AN AUTOMOBILE REPAIR SHOP WHICH CONFIRMED MY FEARS. I WAS SO TERRIFIED THAT THE CAR WOULD CATCH ON FIRE, I WOULD LOSE THE CAR AND CAUSE HARM TO MYSELF OR OTHERS. *AK
