Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2021-2024 Rogue, 2019-2020 Altima, 2019-2022 Infiniti QX50, and 2022 Infiniti QX55 vehicles equipped with 3-cylinder 1.5L or 4-cylinder 2.0L variable compression turbo (VC-Turbo) engines. The engine bearings may have manufacturing defects that can lead to engine failure.
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Nissan Altima, Armada, Frontier, Kicks, Leaf, Maxima, Murano, NV, NV200, Pathfinder, Rogue, Rogue Sport, Sentra, Titan, Titan Diesel, Versa Note and Versa Sedan vehicles, as well as Infiniti Q50, Q60, QX30 and QX80 vehicles. Additionally included are 2019 Nissan GT-R and Taxi and Infiniti QX50, QX60, Q70, Q70L vehicles. The back-up camera and display settings can be adjusted such that the rear view image is no longer visible and the system will retain that setting the next time the vehicle is placed in reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 111, "Rear Visibility."
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2019 INFINITI QX50 vehicles. In the event of a crash in very cold temperatures, the trim cover may separate unexpectedly from the passenger-side knee air bag module instead of splitting at the trim cover tear seam as designed.
On October 11, 2026, while driving my 2019 Infiniti QX50, I experienced a sudden loss of engine power. The check-engine light began flashing, the engine started shaking and making a knocking noise, and the vehicle would not accelerate beyond approximately 20 mph despite pressing the accelerator. This unexpected loss of power created a serious safety concern because I could no longer maintain normal driving speeds. In February 2026, at approximately 170,450 miles, my vehicle underwent an inspection at Infiniti of South Atlanta under NHTSA safety recall 25V437, involving defective engine bearings. The dealership informed me that the vehicle passed because insufficient metal debris was found in the oil pan to qualify for engine replacement. Approximately eight months later, on October 12, 2026, the same dealership inspected my vehicle at 197,467 miles. The technician's notes documented failed connecting rod bearings and an injector failure. The dealership recommended replacing the engine long block, turbocharger, and associated components. The vehicle remains at the dealership, unrepaired and available for further inspection by arrangement. I am concerned that the engine experienced a bearing failure after previously passing an inspection under a safety recall involving defective engine bearings. The relationship between this failure and the recall has not yet been determined. I request that NHTSA review this incident and investigate whether the failure may be related to recall 25V437 or the effectiveness of the completed recall remedy.

While driving on the highway, all of a sudden I heard a very loud boom and then heard some wind/air movement. The sunroom shade was closed but when i pulled over and got out, the sunroof was shattered and the sunroom framing was coming off the car. The glass that fell into the car was caught by the sunroof shade but there were large chunks of glass on the outside too with some pointing outward (as if explosion from inside and pushed it out). If the shade was open, glass would have fallen into the car and potentially caused injury to me and my dog. There were no damage or cracks in the window that were visible to cameras above my garage that morning. The dashcam footage also does not show anything coming towards the car at that moment. It is clear on the images the glass is angled out from the car. I have seen this exact case on the news and online for both Infiniti and Nissan. I was a couple miles from Infiniti and brought it in. The team working (sales team only onsite that day) have not seen this and recommended I submit to insurance as they cannot confirm the cause. I will be submitting to Infiniti Consumer Relations once they are open. I submitted claim to insurance, pending response. (Images named "IMG..." were photos taken off the exit immediately after the incident occurred.)

While driving my 2019 Infiniti QX50, the engine suddenly lost significant power and entered failsafe (limp) mode due to a diagnosed VCR actuator fault (diagnostic codes P11A8-00 and P11AC-00). The sudden power loss caused a single-vehicle accident. No injuries. The vehicle had recall 25V437 service performed at Infiniti of White Plains on 08/27/2026. The check engine light was documented as ON during that visit. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate whether the VCR actuator failure mode can cause sudden power loss creating a crash risk.

While driving on the highway the vehicle would not accelerate and the oil pressure light came on. After pulling over we noticed a slight burning smell and cut the engine. After a few minutes we tried to start the car again and it would not start. Vehicle was towed to independent repair shop who told us the engine had seized. We then learned of the current recall effecting this make model and year of vehicle. The vehicle experienced the same series of events outlined in a service bulletin for the recall. Vehicle was then towed to local Infiniti dealer and they were told the engine is seized and asked to drop oil pan per recall guidelines to confirm and diagnose. After not hearing from dealer after 2 weeks I follow up to be told the vehicle had not been looked at yet and they would get it in that day and call me no later than next day. Once week goes by and they still had not contacted me. I contact them and am told the only thing wrong with my vehicle was a dead battery and that would cost X amount to replace. At that point my car had been sitting in the summer sun for 3 weeks, of course the battery is dead. I reluctantly agree to the repair. After another week I follow up on the repair and am told after replacing the battery the car still will not start and I asked again about the recall diagnosis. After another week, we contact them and am told the car shows information consistent with bearings recall and they submit to Infiniti to approve. A repair timeline is discussed at this time. 24 hours later we are contacted by dealer for first time and told it now does not fit under recall. Have a case with Nissan consumer affairs. We have asked several times for work order and photos of what they are looking at and have not received. Dealer is now asking for $300 plus dollar diagnostic fee to see what is wrong. They say sludge caused engine failure and not recall issue. It has been 46 days at this point and no resolution. Per recall, sludge can be caused by bearings issue
