Nissan North America, Inc.: INFINITI M56, Q50, and Q70 Vehicles Recalled for Driveshaft Failure

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Nissan North America is recalling 7,222 INFINITI two-wheel drive vehicles, including various models from 2011 through 2019, because the driveshaft can fatigue and break. Affected models include the M56, M35 Hybrid, Q50, Q70, Q70L, and Q70 Hybrid. A broken driveshaft causes an immediate loss of power while driving and can also allow the car to roll away when parked if the parking brake is not engaged. Dealers will replace the driveshaft on affected vehicles free of charge.

Risk

If the driveshaft breaks while you are driving, the vehicle will lose all power to the wheels, increasing the risk of a crash. Additionally, if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied, it could roll away unexpectedly even if the transmission is in 'Park,' potentially hitting pedestrians or other vehicles.

What You Should Do

  1. Check if your vehicle is one of the following two-wheel drive models: 2011-2013 INFINITI M56, 2012-2013 M35 Hybrid, 2014-2018 Q50 or Q70 Hybrid, 2014-2019 Q70, or 2015-2019 Q70L.
  2. Always engage your parking brake every time you park the vehicle to prevent a potential roll-away incident until the repair is performed.
  3. Contact an authorized INFINITI dealer to schedule a free replacement of the driveshaft.
  4. Contact INFINITI customer service at 1-800-662-6200 for more information, referencing recall numbers R24A5 or R24A7.
  5. Call the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov for additional recall details.
