Nissan announced that it will be recalling almost 59,000 vehicles worldwide to fix a defect in the seal between the gas tank and the fuel sending unit. The recall covers certain 2013 to 2016 Altimas and some 2016 Maximas. All of the vehicles have V6 engines.
According to documents posted by U.S. safety regulators, in the event of a crash, fuel could leak from the seal and cause a fire. Dealers will install a maintainer ring to help keep a proper seal. The problem was discovered in crash tests. The initial recall began in July and involved about 5,500 Maximas from the 2016 model year.
