Infiniti recall: Air bags
What is wrong
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2017 Infiniti QX30 vehicles manufactured August 11, 2016, to September 27, 2016. The affected vehicles have a passenger air bag inflator initiator that may fail to ignite during a crash, preventing the air bag from deploying. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."
What could happen
A passenger air bag that fails to deploy in the event of a crash can increase the risk of injury.
The fix
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the passenger air bag assembly, free of charge. The recall began on March 21, 2017. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.
