Concern

Airbag may not deploy correctly

Defect, as DVSA words it

It has been identified that due to a manufacturing error at the airbag manufacturer the chemical composition of the initiator (the compound that triggers the airbag deployment) of a limited number of passenger airbag inflators may not be to specification. Therefore it is possible that an affected airbag may not deploy in the event of an accident.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall all affected vehicles to have the affected airbags replace with a new quality assured component.

What changed since we first read it

Nothing yet. The wording has been the same on every read since 4 September 2026. The file is read again every day; if DVSA rewrites the defect, remedy or concern, the old and new text will appear here with both dates.

Infiniti GB elsewhere in this register

Infiniti GB is named on 15 notices in the copy of the DVSA’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same concern: AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY CORRECTLY

8 notices in this register name AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY CORRECTLY. A defect that keeps returning under one heading is worth reading as a group rather than one notice at a time.

Reading this against the source

This page is what the DVSA published in its file of vehicle recalls, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /uk-recalls, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.

This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Infiniti QX30, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
