Vehicle recalls have been headlining automotive news quite a lot as of late. The big recalls are the Takata air bag recalls affecting over ten manufacturers on a global scale. Today though Nissan have just issued a recall on around 470,000 of their SUV models due to a problem with a fuel leak. These recalls affect certain parts of the world with Europe with 22,500 models being affected over here. Other countries are affected are North America,Japan,China,The Middle East and Africa. The cars affected by this recall include the well loved Juke,the Serena, X Trail,Pulsar,Tiida,Patrol and range of Infiniti models consisting of the M56,QX56,Q70 and QX80. Models made between 2012 and 2015 have also been confirmed to be affected. The problem rests within the fuel pressure sensors on the cars which may have not been tightened enough which could then lead on to a possible fuel leak.
