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

Plain-English summary

Nissan North America, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2012-2014 Nissan Juke, 2012-2013 Infiniti M56 and QX56, and 2014-2015 Infiniti Q70 (V8 engine vehicles only) and QX80 vehicles. This recall is an expansion of a previous recall (12V-069) and affects approximately 133,592 vehicles.

The fuel pressure sensors on these vehicles may not have been sufficiently tightened during production. As a result, the sensors may loosen with vehicle usage, causing a fuel leak. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source could cause a vehicle fire.

Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will re-torque the fuel pressure sensors free of charge. The recall began on January 25, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
