Approximately 443,800 Nissan and Infiniti cars and SUVs are affected by the recall, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Documents filed with the highway safety agency stated that the recall was caused by a potential manufacturing defect in the vehicles’ engine bearings, which could cause an engine failure.

Nissan said in its announcement that a failed engine can lead to a “loss of motive power" and increase the risk of a crash.
