Summary:
 In October of 1995, Nisan conducted a safety improvement campaign, 95I-006. The campaign recalled Maximas (1985-88), 200SX (1987-88), 300ZX (1984-88, and Infinity M30 (1990-92), for fuel leaking from the fuel injectors. The remedy called for a replacement of the fuel injectors and related hoses on the affected vehicles. The recall was influenced by EA94-018, involving over 680,000 1984-89 Maxima and 300ZX vehicles, and was originally initiated as PE94-018 with 25 complaints, for a complaint rate of 4 per 100K. ODI has received 34 complaints for the 1990-92 Stanzas and 240SXs, for fuel leaking in the engine compartment from the fuel injectors, for a complaint rate of 10 per 100K. Fuel in the presence of an ignition source can lead to a vehicle fire. The purpose of this investigation is to evaluate whether the 1990-92 Stanzas and 240SXs should be recalled.
