Known issues on the 1989 Maxima. Four recalls are on federal record for this model year. Three cover aftermarket combination corner, bumper, and headlamp assemblies sold for the Maxima that lack the required amber side reflectors, a shortfall that can decrease lighting visibility and result in a crash. The fourth recall covers the fuel filler pipe, where trapped mud and salt can corrode the fuel filler tube and the wheel housing, risking a fuel leak near an ignition source, and since the left rear seat belt retractor mounts to that same wheel housing, a retractor mounting failure in a crash. Owners have filed 68 complaints for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From verifying aftermarket lighting equipment to inspecting the fuel filler tube and wheel housing for corrosion, it keeps you on the OEM procedure for your specific 1989 Maxima.
