2008 INFINITI QX56; 2008 NISSAN ARMADA
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Nissan is recalling certain 2008 Nissan Armada and Infiniti QX56 vehicles manufactured between February 7, 2007 and February 14, 2007. These vehicles have an out-of-specification A-pillar finisher that may impede the correct inflation of the side curtain air bag near the upper portion of the B-pillar, which could increase the risk of injury to occupants in a crash requiring deployment of that air bag.
To remedy this issue, dealers will replace both the right and left front pillar finishers free of charge. The recall began on August 16, 2010. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
