2011–2012 Infiniti G37 & 2011 Nissan 370Z recall: windows, wipers & mirrors

⚠️ What's wrong

Nissan is recalling certain model year 2011 and 2012 infiniti G37 coupe vehicles and certain model year 2011 nissan 370Z vehicles manufactured from july 2, 2011, through august 29, 2011. Due to a programming error, the power window switch controller in the subject vehicles was manufactured out of specification.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
