“Fuel injectors leak similarly to 300zx,200sx,and maxima that were voluntarily repaired by Nissan. There is a great fire danger and mileage and drivability problem. Nissan refuses to repair the problem, stating that there is no evidence of a defect in the injectors of the '88 Pulsar with multi-port injection eventhough it is the same manufacturer as the replaced '88 300 et al, and has the same exact safety problem.”
