| 2001 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE IS PRESENT AFTER FILLING UP AND LASTS UNTIL THE TANK IS APPROXIMATELY 3/4 FULL. THIS PROBLEM BEGAN 2 WEEKS AGO. IT OCCURS EVERY TIME THE TANK IS FILLED. THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED. THE NHTSA WEBSITE INDICATED THAT A RECALL WAS ISSUED IN 2007 FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE MANUFACTURER'S REPORT DATE IS 9-12-07. THE VEHICLE IS A 2001 NISSAN PATHFINDER AND WAS ORIGINALLY SOLD IN NEW YORK. I AM THE SECOND OWNER AND PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN 2004 IN NORTH CAROLINA. CONSEQUENCES OF THE DEFECT ARE POSSIBLE GASOLINE FIRE AND TOTAL DESTRUCTION OF THE VEHICLE AND DEATH OF ALL PASSENGERS. THE VEHICLE IS PARKED AND WILL NOT BE DRIVEN UNTIL THE DEALER HONORS THE RECALL. SO FAR ALL CONVERSATIONS WITH THE DEALER AND NISSAN HAVE BEEN FRUITLESS, AND BOTH PARTIES DECLARE THE VEHICLE HAS NO OUTSTANDING RECALLS AND THEY WILL NOT HONOR THE NHTSA RECALL BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO RECORD OF ANY SUCH RECALL. WHEN I PUSHED THEM WITH THE INFORMATION ON THE NHTSA ID NUMBER FOR THE RECALL, THEIR RESPONSE WAS "THE NHTSA DOES NOT OWN NISSAN." THE NHTSA ID NUMBER IS 07V435000. *TR |
