Infiniti recalls the 2014 QX80

Nissan North America, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2014 Infiniti QX80 vehicles manufactured December 2, 2013, through January 27, 2014, and equipped with 20 inch wheels. In the affected vehicles, the Certification label incorrectly lists the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) as 4,497 lb instead of the correct 4,343 lb. As such, the vehicles do not comply with Part 567 "Certification Regulation."

NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V129000
Potential Number of Units Affected: 468

Consequence:
An incorrect GAWR listing may result in the vehicle being overloaded which may increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy:
Nissan will notify owners, and will mail owners a corrected Certification label, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in April 2014. Owners may contact Infiniti at 1-800-662-6200.

Customers may contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty: 1-800-424-9153); or go to Safercar.
