2024 Nissan Pathfinder and Infiniti QX60 Seat Belt Pretensioner Recall

Nissan North America is recalling certain 2024 Nissan Pathfinder and Infiniti QX60 vehicles. The left-side front lap seat belt pretensioner may be improperly secured due to a missing rivet, which could prevent proper occupant restraint during a crash.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is a structural defect affecting a critical safety system (seat belt occupant restraint). It qualifies as a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported. No injuries or deaths have been documented in the source, and the hazard is theoretical—the defect could fail to properly restrain occupants during a crash.
