| My maxima has a plastic shroud around the fuel filler neck, presumably to protect it from road debris, rocks, etc, blasting the filler neck. unfortunately, the shroud traps fine dirt and moisture. this includes winter road salt. when i removed the shroud, massive amounts of fine sand & dirt fell to the ground. when i cleaned out what was stuck up inside the rear quarter panel area, i swept up 3 full dustpans. it was close to 10lbs of crap. the filler neck was badly rusted. the rear quarter panel was rusted badly. when i started to dismantle, i went to remove seatbelt bolt. i was shocked to find the entire area where the seatbelt attached was behind filler neck and completely rusted out. the sheet metal twisted apart easily and would not have protected the left rear passenger in a 5 mph collision. it would have just tore away. years ago my '86 honda prelude had a rusty filler neck. i removed it and went to buy the part, and was told there was a recall on it. it was considered a safety issue. when i asked nissan a few months ago, there was no recall for this serious safety issue (on 2 issues: strong fuel odors and no seatbelt protection). i find that unacceptable, especially now that i can see the flawed design. i have also seen many other nissan owners with similar complaints for nissan axxess and nissan murano ( and i haven't even searched or looked for these complaints). also, i have been investigating auto mvas for 25 years. *tr | |||
