Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Had gasoline smell for quite a while. the dealer informed me of a recall on a vapor vent hose for my van and replaced it but the gasoline smell never went away. i took it back a second time but the dealer could not find anything. less then a year and while driving with the same smell of gasoline coming through the a/c my vant caught on fire, and within seconds everything under the hood was engulfed in flames. i called nissan but they tell me the van is no longer under warranty so there is nothing they can do for me. *ak
