Buying a used 2021 Infiniti Q50? Check these 3 recalls first

3 NHTSA recalls · 5 owner complaints on file

Three recalls cover this year: an engine that may stall during acceleration on the Q50 and Q60, weak steering and axle parts shared with the Nissan Murano and other Infiniti models, and a backup camera screen that shuts off. None were issued with stop-driving or park-outside warnings. Only five owner complaints have been filed with NHTSA — unverified reports, one citing a crash — spread thinly across engine and cooling, wheels, air bags and structure, too few to show a pattern.

Before you buy

  1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
  2. Ask for recall completion records, especially the steering and axle component recall
  3. Accelerate hard from a stop during the test drive and note any stall or hesitation
  4. Check the backup camera and listen for steering or front-end noise over bumps
  5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Infiniti dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
