The company identified a potential manufacturing defect in some engine components in the vehicles, which may cause engine damage or complete failure, increasing the risk of a crash, the auto safety agency said.
The recall includes certain model years of the Nissan Rogue, Altima, Infiniti QX50, and Infiniti QX55 vehicles, the NHTSA recall report said, estimating that 1.2% of all vehicles have the defect.
