- Summary
- Nissan is recalling model year 2008 Nissan armada and Infiniti QX56 vehicles manufactured from February 7, 2007 through February 14, 2007. These vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 201, "protection in interior impact." an out-of-specification a-pillar finisher might impede the correct inflation of the side curtain air bag near the upper portion of the b-pillar.
- Consequence
- Incorrect inflation of the side curtain air bag may increase the risk of injury to a vehicle occupant in the event of a crash requiring deployment of that air bag.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace both right and left front pillar finishers free of charge. The safety recall began on August 16, 2010. Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.

Has your Infiniti been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Infiniti dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
