Smelling and leaking gas. Smell in stronger when driving the vehicle. Took it to a car shop and they stated that the fuel pressure sensor was leaking. There was a recall at one time for this and I have called the Nissan customer service and filled a claim. The Nissan makers states that they could not fix the problem due to the recall had already been fixed in 2018. Even though it has been 6 years, I think they should be liable to fix this issue. There is either something wrong with the sensors or it was not tight enough to start with.

My vehicle was taken in for original recall repair in november 2018 to charlie clark nissan. Upon pickup of vehicle, I alerted service man of strong smell of gas and he stated it had been repaired but my filters simply needed to be replaced. I had all my filters replaced three times and attempted to take my vehicle to alternate nissan dealerships due to persistent smell of gas but was told since they're are no open campaigns with my VIN. I took my vehicle back to original dealership and have now been told it is indeed leaking fuel as a direct result of the recall but they are unable to cover the costs of the repair due to it already been previously worked on. Vehicle leaks fuel profusely, omits black fumes through exhaust and has issues accelerating. Average fuel usage is 60 miles perfull tank of gas.
