Nissan is recalling model year 2013 Sentra vehicles manufactured from September 11, 2012, through October 4, 2012.
Some fuel tank assemblies were not properly sealed during the manufacturing process. As a result, a small amount of gasoline may leak from the tank when it is full. A gasoline leak in the presence of an ignition source may lead to a vehicle fire.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel tanks as necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin March 18, 2013.
Owners may contact Nissan Customer Service at 1-800-647-7261.
