Infiniti QX56, QX80: Airbag
Affects Infiniti QX56, QX80 · 2013–2014 — about 45 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles, the driver's (frontal) airbag inflator was built with an incorrect part which could cause the inflator to rupture during a deployment. In a crash, this may cause airbag components to separate, which could allow fragments to be propelled toward vehicle occupants, increasing the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the driver's (frontal) airbag.
