Nissan Recalls 2009

WASHINGTON—Nissan is recalling 51,100 Cube hatchbacks in Canada and the United States because of possible problems with fuel spilling during rear end collisions.
In documents filed with the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Nissan said tests conducted by NHTSA safety regulators found more fuel spilled than U.S. standards allow.
The spillage occurred during rear end crash tests at 80 kilometres per hour where the vehicle also spun onto its side.
Nissan says its earlier tests did not show any fuel leakage, but it will issue a voluntary recall of 5,400 vehicles in Canada and 45,700 in the U.S.
Cube dealers will attach a special protector to prevent leaks and will contact owners on August 30.
The recall covers model year 2009 and 2010 Cubes made between Jan. 30, 2009 and July 30.
Nissan says there have been no injuries or incidents reported by drivers.
