| I was on hwy 10 traveling from houston to nm, headed west just past exist 138 in normal driving conditions. i has just finished fueling up my vehicle and was back on the hwy. i ran over small object in the road that caused a puncture in the back of the fuel tank. i was signaled by passing call to pullover immediately as there was fuel was pouring out of the vehicle , making it an extreme fire hazard & undriveable. i was following behind my boyfriend during this incident who also ran over this same object and nothing happened to his vehicle (bmw). i called nissan the next day ( i have reference # ) & i was told there was no recall for 2007 regarding fuel tank puncture problems .he said this was a problem for the previous year models and not my model year. the fuel tank does appear however to be exposed and appears to be prone to this problem . there are approx 17500 miles on this 2007 murano. the fuel tank was patched the next day, and the suv driven to it's destination without incident, and parked until it could be towed by the dealership for repairs. a new fuel tank will be used to replace the damaged one. the dealership informed me this would not be covered and i should contact my insurance. i am very concerned that this may happen again . this was the 1st time for this vehicle to be driven on the hwy as it was only driven locally on city streets prior. the same object did not cause the same problem for my boyfriends vehicle nor for the other cars who ran over it as well. *tr | |||
