Infiniti has 105 recall campaigns across 27 models. A defect is admitted 5.67 years after the car was built on average, and 49.9% of campaigns come five years or later.
What gets recalled on a Infiniti
By number of separate campaigns, not by cars affected — one campaign can cover a million vehicles or a thousand.
| System | Campaigns | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Air Bags | 23.8% | |
| Fuel System, Gasoline | 9.5% | |
| Exterior Lighting | 8.6% | |
| Service Brakes, Hydraulic | 5.7% | |
| Seat Belts | 5.7% | |
| Steering | 4.8% | |
| Equipment | 4.8% | |
| Power Train | 4.8% |
How long a defect stays unadmitted
Campaign numbers encode the year they were announced, so we can measure how quickly Infiniti acts once a defect exists.
| Measure | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Average gap | 5.67 years | Between the car being built and the defect being admitted |
| Admitted 5+ years later | 49.9% | Share of campaigns on cars already well used |
| Campaigns on record | 105 | Across 27 models, 1990–2026 |
Across all brands the average is 3.79 years. Faster is better, but a low figure can also mean a young line-up — read it next to the number of campaigns.
Infiniti recalls by model
27 Infiniti models have campaigns on record. The gap between them is wider than the brand average suggests: on the Q60 a defect is admitted in 0.2 years, on the QX4 it takes 10.9 — the same company, the same paperwork, 10.7 years of difference.

Check your own car
Infiniti has 105 campaigns on record across 27 models, but none of them covers a whole model — only a production range inside it, sometimes a few weeks of assembly. So the 105 figure says nothing about any particular Infiniti: decoding the VIN narrows those 105 down to the recalls for one model and year. Whether the free fix was already carried out on that exact car, NHTSA's own VIN lookup or any Infiniti dealer can tell you.
| Step | What you get |
|---|---|
| Enter the VIN above | Every recall for that model and year, straight from NHTSA |
| Check the repair status | NHTSA's own VIN lookup or a dealer shows if this car was fixed |
| Book at any franchised dealer | Recall work is free regardless of age, mileage or owner |

Frequently asked questions
How many recalls does Infiniti have?
105 campaigns across 27 models. On its own the number reflects how many models a brand sells — the response time says more.
Is Infiniti slow to admit defects?
On average a Infiniti defect is admitted 5.67 years after the car was built, against about 3.79 years across all brands. 49.9% of campaigns come five years or later.
Does a recall mean the car is unsafe?
It means a specific fault was found in a specific production range and must be fixed free of charge. A brand with many campaigns is not automatically worse — sometimes it simply reports faster.
How do I check my own Infiniti?
By VIN. Campaigns cover production ranges, so the model alone does not tell you whether your car is affected.
