i got a 2007 maxima that i believe that my oxygen sensors are bad due to the fact that my gas mileage went downhill and that a bad smell is in the car every time i press the pedal almost all the way. please if anyone has a diagram of the location of the oxygen sensors and if thats the problem thats causing my car to give bad smell and bad gas mileagethanks nico

Your car should still be under warranty - Basic is 3-r/36K miles while Powertrain is 5-yr/60K miles. Take it back to the dealer for diagnostic. It's too early for an O2 sensor to fail. Besides, a defective O2 sensor will trigger the CEL and give a fault code.
