Fuel leak from top of defective fuel tank (corrosion) confirmed by nissan 112 patchogue, ny. There was a recall on 2001 frontiers for the same reason but not on the 2000. I see many other 2000 frontier owners have the same safety issue and that in most cases nissan replaced the tank for no charge. I am seeking for them to do the same for my vehicle or recall the 2000 frontier for this defect. *tr
