The 2009 Infiniti QX56 has 2 recalls, the more serious being a brake pedal that can partially disengage from its bracket, giving the pedal an unusual loose feeling and significantly reducing braking force.
The fuel gauge on certain vehicles can read roughly a quarter tank remaining when the tank is actually empty, which can cause the engine to stall unexpectedly on the highway.
