MOVED FOOT FROM GAS PEDDLE TO THE BRAKE TO FIND THE BRAKE TO THE FLOOR. NO INJURIES OR DAMAGE WAS SUSTAINED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN DIRECTLY TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY CAN NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT WAS CONTACTED. THEY AGREED WITH DEALER THAT IT COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. COULD NOT TELL US IF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN FILED REGARDING THE FEB SAFETY FEATURE OF THE QX80. *TR

I WAS A PASSENGER IN MY INFINITI QX80 GOING ABOUT 25 +/- . THERE WERE 3 BEEPS AND THE CAR SUDDENLY BREAKED ON ITS OWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. I LOOKED UP TO FIND NOTHING IN FRONT OF US. THE DRIVER SAID THE CAR BREAKED SUDDENLY ON ITS OWN! HER FOOT WAS ON THE GAS PEDDLE AND WHEN SHE REACTED BY GOING FOR THE BREAK IT WAS ALREADY TO THE FLOOR. THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON FOR THIS EMERGENCY COLLISION FEATURE TO GO OFF. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ONE CLOSE ENOUGH BEHIND US TO REAREND US, ALTHOUGH I'M CERTAIN THE DRIVER WONDERED WHY WE SLAMMED ON OUR BREAKS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. THANKFULLY WE HAD ALREADY GOT OFF OF I80 WHERE OUR SPEEDS RANGED UP TO 70 MPH. THE DEALERSHIP CURRENTLY HAS THE CAR AND CLAIMS THEY CAN NOT FIND ANY ISSUES, I'M FEARFUL OF GETTING BEHIND THE WHEEL AND TAKING ANY CHANCES OF IT HAPPENING AGAIN. THE GENERAL MANAGER ASKED IF IT WERE RAINING HARD WHEN THE INCIDENT OCCURRED.....THIS MAKES ME EVEN LESS CONFIDENT IN THIS SAFETY FEATURE. THE OTHER SUGGESTION WAS AN OBJECT IN THE ROAD. IF THE FEB IS ET OFF BY RAIN OR A SMALL OBJECT IN THE ROAD THAT IS NOT VISIBLE TO THE EYE, THAT IS NOT A SAFETY FEATURE,

26V455000 · Equipment:other:labels

Jul 15, 2026

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2020-2026 Nissan Armada, 2011-2013 Infiniti QX56, and 2014-2027 QX80 vehicles equipped with 22" wheels. The Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) listed on the certification label is incorrect, which can allow the vehicle to be overloaded. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: An overloaded vehicle can increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Dealers will install new labels, free of charge. Additionally, Nissan will mail replacement labels to owners. Interim letters notifying owners of the safety risk were mailed September 2, 2026. Additional letters will be sent once the final remedy is available, anticipated Fall 2026. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's numbers for this recall are R26B1 and P6A13/4. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov on July 16, 2026.

Nov 28, 2014

The fuel pressure sensors may not have been sufficiently tightened during production. As a result, the fuel pressure sensor may loosen with vehicle usage and cause a fuel leak.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source could cause a vehicle fire.

Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will re-torque the fuel pressure sensors free of charge. The recall began on January 25, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.
