2012 Infiniti M recalls
Recall 12V-069: Fuel System, Gasoline
Problem: Nissan is recalling certain model year 2011-2012 juke, infiniti qx and infiniti m vehicles. The fuel pressure sensors may not have been tightened to the correct specification. As a result, the fuel pressure sensor may loosen due to heat and vibration causing fuel to leak.
Risk: Fuel may leak from the pressure sensor, increasing the risk of a fire.
Fix: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel pressure sensors, as necessary, free of charge. The safety recall began on april 2, 2012. Owners may contact nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.
Recall 11V-592: Engine and Engine Cooling
Problem: Nissan is recalling certain model year 2011 infiniti fx, model year 2012 infiniti m, model year 2011-2012 nissan frontier, model year 2011-2012 nissan xterra, model year 2011-2012 nissan pathfinder, and model year 2012 nissan nv vehicles. Some of the bolts that connect the engine oil cooler and the engine oil filter to the engine in these vehicles may have been manufactured to below specification strength. As a result, the bolt may break at the oil filter attachment point and can cause an engine oil leak.
Risk: If there is an engine oil leak, the engine oil pressure would drop and the engine could seize, increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the connector bolts free of charge. The safety recall began on january 30, 2012. Owners may contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
