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 where brake calipers may separate, leading to reduced braking performance and steering control, which aligns with the rubric criteria for a Severe (4) rating.

Plain-English summary

Nissan North America, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Nissan Pathfinder and Infiniti QX60 vehicles manufactured between August 14, 2014, and November 5, 2014, as well as 2014-2015 Nissan Rogue vehicles manufactured between August 12, 2014, and November 15, 2014. The recall addresses a defect where the front wheel hub assembly fasteners may not have been properly torqued during the assembly process.

The under-torqued fasteners may result in a brake caliper separating from the wheel assembly, which can cause a reduction in braking performance or reduced steering control. These conditions increase the risk of a crash.

Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and tighten any loose bolts to the proper specification free of charge. The recall began on February 2, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
