Infiniti steering column outer tube may not be round, resulting in extra stress being applied to the upper steering bearing.
The short version
Nissan North America, Inc. reported a problem with the steering column. Here is what owners need to know.
The steering column outer tube may not be round, resulting in extra stress being applied to the upper steering bearing. This stress may cause the bearing retainer to fracture, creating extra play in the steering wheel or a possible loss of steering.
Extra play in the steering wheel or a loss of steering may increase the risk of a crash.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the steering shaft on the Infiniti EX35, FX35, and FX45 vehicles, and will replace the steering column assembly on the Nissan GT-R vehicles, free of charge.
