Nissan is recalling certain Infiniti Q50, Q70, and Q70L two-wheel drive vehicles because the driveshaft can develop fatigue and break.
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.
