What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (wheel separation) that increases the risk of a crash, which aligns with the 'Severe' criteria in the rubric.

Plain-English summary

Nissan North America, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2014 Nissan Pathfinder and Rogue vehicles, as well as 2014 Infiniti QX60 vehicles. The recall addresses a defect where the right side wheels of the affected vehicles may have one lug nut each that was not properly tightened.

If the improperly tightened lug nut becomes loose, it may fall off. This can allow the other lug nuts to become loose, potentially resulting in a wheel separation and increasing the risk of a crash.

Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and tighten any loose lug nuts to the correct specification free of charge. The recall is expected to begin by the end of June 2014. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
