“Fuel injection went out on car in sept. 1998, all fuel injections were to be replaced according to Nissan, and my receipt shows same. Then on 7/23/99 fuel injection went out again. I was told it was #3 and that it was lead to believe it was still one of the orginal ones. I did not pay the first time, since I had a warranty, and my mileage was only 29914. But 10 months later a fuel injection goes again, and I'm told its #3. If all were replaced, why I am I paying for it, with only 32806 in miles? My receipt states we use Nissan genuine parts which carry a 12 month or 12,000 mile. …”
NHTSA complaint #709126, filed 1999-07“The contact owns a 1993 Nissan Sentra. The contact stated that there was a massive fuel leak coming from the fuel line. Whenever he fills up the fuel tank, gasoline would leak from the filler tube connection tank. The overflow tube was previously repaired to correct the failure; however, the fuel continued to leak. In addition, the air bag warning indicator continued to illuminate on the instrument panel. The indicator made a series of four beeping sounds and remain lit for 15 minutes while continuing to beep. The failure mileage was 63,000 and current mileage was 95,000.”
