What owners wrote

When turning on the air conditioning in the car after engine startup a very strong smell of gas enters the vehicle cabin. The fumes are very strong and unmistakable. This does not happen every time but happens often enough to be a concern. This started I would say within the past 4-6 months, not sure exactly when. Did not take the vehicle to the dealership for concern, was waiting for an oil change interval to come up.

I had a gas/exhaust smell coming into my cabin of vehicle and from my the outside of my vehicle. I took to my mechanic, where he confirmed that there was a gas leak and that nissan had recalls on my type of vehicle for this reason. Told me to take to nissan dealer for recall repairs. There were two recall id#: r1201 and r1418. The dealership said my VIN# didn't have a recall, despite the confirmation from my mechanic that there was a leak.
