Buying a used 2019 Infiniti QX50? Check these 3 recalls first

3 NHTSA recalls · 139 owner complaints on file

This year carries a critical recall for Nissan and Infiniti turbo engines that may fail or burn, plus lower-severity recalls for a knee airbag cover that can detach in cold weather and a backup camera image that can stay off. No stop-driving or park-outside warnings were issued. The complaint volume stands out: 139 unverified reports to NHTSA, including three crashes, one fire and three injuries, with engine (53) and engine and engine cooling (31) dominating.

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. Get documentation that the turbo engine recall was performed, including any engine work
3. Ask for full service history on oil consumption, coolant loss and engine warning lights
4. Have a compression or leak-down check done, and confirm the knee airbag cover recall
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.
