Infiniti Q50, Q60 and QX80 rearview image may not display medium
Nissan is recalling certain Infiniti Q50, Q60, and QX80 vehicles because of a software error. The error can shut off the screen that handles audio and video, so the image from the rear-view camera does not appear. Because of this, these vehicles do not meet the federal rules for rear visibility. A dealer will update the software at no cost to the owner. Nissan mailed notification letters to owners, and the company has a customer service line for questions.
Nissan Murano and Infiniti Steering Parts May Crack high
Some Nissan Murano and Infiniti Q50, QX50, and QX60 vehicles have a front steering knuckle or rear axle housing that may not be strong enough because of a manufacturing heat-treatment problem. If the part is struck hard, such as when a vehicle hits a curb, it could deform. That could cause the driver to lose steering control, or a wheel could separate from the vehicle.
Infiniti Q50, Q60 Engine May Stall From Fuel Loss high
Infiniti is recalling certain Q50 and Q60 vehicles. These vehicles have a computer that manages engine performance. After the computer detects rapid acceleration, it may incorrectly reduce engine power and cut back the amount of fuel reaching the engine. This drop in fuel supply can leave the engine running low on fuel. When the engine does not get enough fuel, it may stall while the vehicle is being driven.
Nissan and Infiniti backup camera image can stay off medium
Nissan is recalling certain Nissan and Infiniti vehicles, including the Altima, Rogue, Sentra, Murano, Pathfinder, Titan, Frontier, Leaf, Versa and several Infiniti Q and QX models. The back-up camera and display settings can be changed so that the rear view picture no longer appears, and the vehicle keeps that setting the next time it is put in reverse. Because of this, the vehicles do not meet the federal rear visibility safety standard. Dealers will update the camera settings software at no cost.
Infiniti Q50 Software Flaw Can Stall Engine high
These vehicles have a computer that controls the fuel pump, and it may have incorrect software installed. Because of this software error, the system may not correctly track how much fuel remains in the main tank, and it can let the fuel level get too low to keep supplying fuel to the engine. When that happens, the engine can stall while you are driving.
