| I have a 1990 nissan stanza, which has leaking fuel injectors resulting in a strong gas odor in the car. in reviewing the nissan vehicle owners failed component information on-line, i discovered that others have reported this same problem at about the same mileage that i experienced it-- 85,000 miles. does nissan plan to recall these vehicles. if not, what do you plan to do about what looks like a structural problem. i look forward to hearing from you. joan crichlow | |||
