1 Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 08/05/2004

I have a 1999 Nissan Frontier xe king cab 4wd with a 3. 3l engine. The middle spring on the right rear leaf spring broke and the forward portion (still attached via a "rivet" to the other two) pivoted and unbeknowst to me wore a hole in the fuel tank. I only noticed that there was a problem when I filled up the tank and noticed a strong odor. There is a recall on the fuel sending unit and when I take the vehicle in for this I will notify them of this other problem. I don't have a problem with the leaf spring breaking; however, I have a problem with there not being some sort of "clip" to prevent the broken piece from rubbing against the fuel tank.
