Recalls: check by VIN

NHTSA files recalls for the Nissan 200sx under individual trim or body names rather than "200sx", so we can't match them automatically. Enter your 17-digit VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls for the definitive list. The owner complaints below are matched correctly.

1. THE FUEL INJECTORS ARE LEAKING, SMELL GASOLINE. WHEN I OPEN THE HOOD, I CAN SEE THE GASOLINE SEEPING FROM THE FUEL INJECTORS. I CALLED THE MANUFACTURER REGARDING THE RECALL, THEY SAID MY CAR IS NOT COVERED, EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A RECALL FOR SAME TYPE OF PROBLEM FOR '87 200SX, '84-89 MAXIMA MODELS.
