I have noticed a strong fuel odor when I first start the car for the past few weeks. Evidently it is a leaking fuel pressure sensor. It appears there is already a recall on this problem (under the federal safety agency campaign id:14v683000), but my specific VIN is not included. I have just over 60k miles.

Fuel leak by model year
What owners say
There is a fuel leak in the engine. The high pressure fuel pressure sensor is leaking fuel all down the engine, and the car has a strong gasoline smell. The smell is present while the car is stationary and in gear.
The car has been leaking fuel and had a strong fuel odor for a couple of weeks. I git it towed to a nissan dealer and they are telling me it needs a fuel pressure sensor and the fuel bolt won't tighten. They have already had a recall on this particular problem but they're saying my VIN number is not included in the recall and I don't think I should have to pay for it the car is only 4 years old and it only has 69000 miles on it.
Fuel leaking out of fuel pressure censor. Could easily cause a fire
My 2014 nissan juke is getting a leaking fuel pressure censor replaced, but I think it should be covered under the federal safety agency campaign id:14v683000. It is obvious that nissan is having problems with part or design. There is definitely a fire hazard.
