Vehicles Affected: Approximately 500 model-year 2017 Infiniti QX30 SUVs manufactured between Aug. 11 and Sept. 27, 2016
The Problem: The passenger-side airbag inflator initiator may fail to ignite during a crash, preventing the airbag from deploying and increasing the risk of injury. This issue is not related to the ongoing Takata airbag recall.
The Fix: Dealers will replace the passenger-side airbag assembly for free.
