Details

What's wrong: Nissan north america, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2014 Infiniti QX80 vehicles manufactured December 2, 2013, through January 27, 2014, and equipped with 20 inch wheels. In the affected vehicles, the certification label incorrectly lists the gross axle weight rating (gawr) as 4,497 lb instead of the correct 4,343 lb. As such, the vehicles do not comply with part 567 "certification regulation."

Why it matters: An incorrect gawr listing may result in the vehicle being overloaded which may increase the risk of a crash.

The fix: Nissan will notify owners, and will mail owners a corrected certification label, free of charge. The recall began on April 21, 2014.
