1995 Nissan Quest recalls (3)
Tap a recall to see the problem, the risk and the fix.
Fuel system, gasoline:storage:tank assembly
Problem: 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.
Fix: Dealers will replace the vent hose.
Exterior lighting:tail lights
Problem: The rear lamp socket may not illuminate because the metal can in the lamp socket moves or separates from the plastic socket housing.
Risk: This can result in malfunction of the stop or rear running lamps. Center high mount stop lamp function is unaffected. Rear lamp malfunction can result in following drivers not being alerted to the subject vehicle's presence or intended actions, particularly in the case in which both lamps have malfunctioned.
Fix: Dealers will install a revised rear lamp socket and wiring assemblies.
Seats
Problem: An out-of-specification condition in the seat cable roller pulley assembly can allow the cable that connects the seat adjust lever to the latch to be pinched in the roller assembly.
Risk: Consequence of non-compliance: this condition can prevent the latch on the left side from fully engaging the seat rail. This does not comply with the requirement of fmvss no. 207, "seating systems."
Fix: Dealers will replace the puller assembly in the third row sliding bench seat latch assembly.
