2013 Nissan ALTIMA Fuel Propulsion System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1499287
Internal NHTSA #	11130684
Manufacurer	Nissan North America, Inc.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	ALTIMA
Model Year	2013
File date	01/01/13
Component	FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Consistent with nhtsa 10109214,,when attempting to add gasoline to the vehicle, the gas station's gas pump's filling nozzle kicks off immediately and continuously.. In order to add fuel, i must place the nozzle no further inside than the edge of the fuel tank tube and then only slightly squeeze the gas pump's nozzle. Handle so that only a light stream of fuel slowly runs through the gas pump's nozzle.. It takes me 12-15 minutes to fill my tank. This is unsafe because i cannot insert the gas pump's nozzle any further than the edge of the opening to the fuel tank tube and so it is common for gasoline to splash out on my hand, body, clothing, car and other surroundings. Because fueling requires that i maintain my hand on the pump's nozzle handle and the process takes so long, i am subject to gasoline splashes and inhaling gasoline fumes for a prolonged period of time. The splashing of gasoline on the surrounding surfaces at the gas station poses a fire risk at the gas station, its customersi and me. In the event of a fire or spark, i could catch on fire. Due to the splashing on my skin, and clothing. Because the nozzle can only be placed to the edge of the opening to the fuel tank tube, a spark could be attracted to the excessive access to fuel.. As a rule, people waiting in line behind me to fuel up become inpattient and enraged due to the delay. In today's world, if the wrong person is waiting behind me, i almost jokingly add that this vehicle's defect could lead to a mass shooting at the gas station. You may disregard that last comment.
