Fuel leak by model year
What owners say
When the fuel tank is filled and the vehicle is parked on slightly inclined driveway, fuel leaks out onto driveway from fuel tank line area.. This happens every time the fuel tank gets filled and is a safety hazard..
Fuel is leaking from under the tank when the tank is filled . The dealer is inspecting, and will repair the vehicle.
My wife complained of a strong gasoline odor inside the car. The dealer discovered that the fuel lines over the engine were cracked and were leaking gasoline. We have owned 6 automobiles (all bought new), and this is the first time that one has had a problem with the fuel lines.
While fueling my 1995 nissan quest I noticed fuel dripping from underneath. I had been noticing a fuel smell for sometime after fueling for several months until the leak developed. When I got where I could make a complete inspection I crawled under my vehicle and found there are 2 rubber lines which lead from the fuel neck into the gas tank. I noted that the small line (know as a vent line) had some cracks in it and also I could see vapors emitting from the cracks. I feel like this could be a potential fire hazard and also a hazard to the occupants of the auto because those vapors could possibly enter into the passenger compartment. Also this is an enviromential hazard since gas vapors are allowed to vent into the atmosphere. I have talked to several people and also some mechanics and found this to be a common problem. I replaced the vent hose on my auto and it seems to have cured the problem. I feel like this problem needs to be investigated and should there be a wide spread problem then the part needs to be replaced with a better quality rubber.
Fuel rail bends where the weld is causing fuel leakage. Dealer has been notified.

- What is wrong
- Vehicle description: minivans. The fuel tank vent hose allows air to vent from the fuel tank during refueling. Cracks have developed in the vent hose. If (1) the fuel tank is overfilled, not allowing excess fuel in the vent hose to flow back into the tank, (2) the vehicle is driven only a short distance after refueling and, (3) there is subsequently significant heating of the fuel tank, the fuel in the tank can expand into the vent hose and leak fuel.
- Risk
- Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source can result in a fire.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the vent hose.
