Due to the safety hazards of some vehicles, Infiniti has decided to recall some Infiniti Q50L and QX50 vehicles in the domestic auto market from April 4, 2024. A total of 60,851 vehicles were involved in this recall. Considering Infiniti's sluggish sales performance in the domestic auto market, it should be said that the scale of this recall is still very high.
Infiniti Q50L
Among them, a total of 40,730 units of Infiniti Q50L were recalled. The recall is mainly for some Q50L vehicles manufactured between November 1, 2016 and October 31, 2018 for the 2016-2018 model year.
At the same time, the number of Infiniti QX50s involved is relatively small. On the one hand, it involves some vehicles produced between November 1, 2016 and October 28, 2017, with the number of 8,392;
On the other hand, 11,729 units of the 2018 model year were produced between May 1, 2018 and November 30, 2018.

As for the reason for the recall, it is because the passenger seat seat sensor may have been damaged due to manufacturing reasons of the vehicle involved, resulting in the failure of the Passenger Classification System (OCS).
In this case, the OCS status light and instrument airbag indicator of the vehicle involved are lit up, and the passenger airbag deployment function is turned off.
In this way, once the vehicle is in a collision accident, the passenger airbag cannot be deployed normally, which will increase the risk of injury to the passenger occupants, thereby causing potential safety hazards to the user.

In view of this, Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd. has decided to recall this part of the vehicle. After the recall, Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd. will replace the improved OCS sensor for the vehicle involved free of charge, so as to eliminate potential safety hazards for users.
It should be said that at a time when the traffic environment is becoming more and more complex, this airbag problem is not a small problem. In the event of a collision, it may cause large losses.
In this case, Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd. has decided to recall the relevant models and solve the related problems, which I think is worthy of recognition.

In view of this, Cheyu World reminds users to pay attention to the relevant recall information, so as to solve the potential safety hazards in this regard and ensure the safety of their own cars.
If the user finds that the OCS status light and the instrument airbag indicator light are lit at the same time before the recall, then it means that a fault has occurred, and the after-sales service should be contacted in time for treatment.
At the same time, it is also necessary to avoid re-occupancy in the passenger seat. It should be said that in recent years, Infiniti's performance in the domestic car market has not been very good.
Infiniti Q50L
The recalled Infiniti Q50L and QX50 have a certain degree of recognition in the domestic auto market, and have been launched for a long time, but the sales scale is very low.
After entering 2024, its sales not only did not improve, but continued to show a downward trend. According to the latest comprehensive industry sales data, in January 2024, the monthly retail sales of Infiniti QX50 in the domestic auto market will only be 24 units.
Compared with the previous month, sales showed a higher downward trend. For comparison, in December 2023, the monthly retail sales of the Infiniti QX50 were 92 units.
Infiniti QX50
In February 2024, the monthly retail sales of the Infiniti QX50 decreased further. According to the industry's comprehensive sales data, in February 2024, its monthly retail sales were only 24 units.
It can be said that the sales dilemma of Infiniti QX50 in the domestic auto market is a microcosm of Infiniti's predicament in the domestic auto market.
As a luxury car brand that entered the domestic auto market very early, Infiniti's sales dilemma in the domestic auto market is somewhat regrettable.

I believe that if Infiniti had been able to take strong measures to launch many competitive models in the early days of China's auto market, its situation in the domestic auto market would definitely not be as difficult as it is today.
With the intensification of competition in the domestic auto market, it can be expected that if Infiniti cannot take effective measures to save the current situation, then its situation in the domestic auto market may be more difficult.
Now, because of the airbag problem, more than 60,000 vehicles have been recalled in the domestic auto market, which can be said to be "worse" for Infiniti.
Here, we hope that Infiniti can find effective rescue measures, so as to obtain better market development prospects in the domestic auto market.
