WHAT YOU MUST DO
In order to obtain warranty service you 
must deliver the vehicle to any authorized 
Infiniti retailer in the United States at your 
expense. You are responsible for the required 
maintenance on your vehicle as outlined in 
the maintenance instructions in your Owner’s 
Manual. Infiniti recommends that you retain all 
receipts covering maintenance on your vehicle, 
but Infiniti cannot deny warranty solely for the 
lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the 
performance of all scheduled maintenance.
WHAT INFINITI WILL DO
Warranty repairs will be made at no charge for 
parts and/or labor, including diagnosis and tax. 
Any needed parts replacement will be made 
using new or remanufactured parts.
OTHER WARRANTY TERMS
PERFORMANCE WARRANTY CLAIMS 
PROCEDURE
You may make a claim under the Performance 
Warranty immediately after the failure of a 
“smog check” test. You must provide proof of 
this failure when making your claim in order to 
avoid additional “smog check” test charges.
You will be told whether Infiniti will honor your 
claim within 30 days of the date you make the 
claim, unless a shorter time period is required 
by law. If your claim is denied, Infiniti will notify 
you in writing of the reason. If we do not notify 
you within this time period, we will repair your 
vehicle under this warranty at no cost to you. The time period for notification will not apply 
if you request a delay or a delay is caused by 
events not under the control of Infiniti retailers.
No claim will be denied under the Performance 
Warranty because you use a certified part for 
maintenance or repair.
MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND 
REPLACEMENT PARTS
Important information concerning 
maintenance service and replacement parts is 
on page 17 of this booklet. No warranty claim 
will be denied solely because a non- Infiniti 
part was used for maintenance or repair.
CALIFORNIA VEHICLE INSPECTION 
PROGRAM
Under this program, if your vehicle fails a “smog 
check” test, you may choose to have diagnosis 
of the failure and repairs made at an Infiniti 
retailer or at another service facility. If the 
inspection failure is the result of a condition 
covered by these warranties, you must take 
your vehicle to an Infiniti retailer for warranty 
repairs. This includes parts, labor and diagnosis. 
You must pay for diagnostic costs if performed 
at another service facility except in the case of 
emergency repairs as outlined below.You must pay for all diagnostic and repair costs 
of an inspection failure as required by law if the 
failure was caused by conditions not covered 
by these warranties. If the failure is the result 
of a combination of conditions, you must pay 
for only the diagnostic and repair costs related 
to items not covered by these warranties.
After the 4 years/60,000 mile performance 
warranty has passed, a “smog check” test 
failure due to a defect in a part which is 
warranted for 7 years/70,000 miles is 
covered.
EMERGENCY REPAIRS
In case of an emergency, when an authorized 
Infiniti retailer is not reasonably available, 
warranty repairs may be performed at any 
service facility or by the owner using any 
replacement parts. Infiniti will reimburse you 
for such repairs, including diagnosis, up to 
the amount of Infiniti’s suggested retail price 
for parts and labor charges based on Infiniti’s 
recommended time allowance for the warranty 
repair and the geographically appropriate 
hourly labor rate. A part not being available 
or a repair not being complete within 30 days 
also constitutes an emergency. You must 
take the replaced part and paid receipts to an 
authorized Infiniti retailer for repayment in 
such emergency situations.

17RECOMMENDATION FOR MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND REPLACEMENT PARTS
RECOMMENDATION FOR 
MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND 
REPLACEMENT PARTS
To assure best results and to maintain the 
original quality built into the emission control 
systems, it is recommended that parts and 
accessories supplied by Infiniti for use on 
Infiniti vehicles be used when servicing or 
repairing the systems.
THE WARRANTY OBLIGATIONS ARE NOT 
DEPENDENT UPON THE USE OF ANY 
PARTICULAR BRAND OF REPLACEMENT 
PARTS AND THE OWNER MAY ELECT TO 
USE NON-GENUINE INFINITI PARTS FOR 
REPLACEMENT PURPOSES.
The use of replacement parts which are not 
equivalent to genuine Infiniti parts may reduce 
the effectiveness of the emission control 
system.
Therefore, if it becomes necessary to use other 
than genuine Infiniti parts, the owner should 
assure himself that such parts are warranted 
by their manufacturer to be equivalent in 
quality to genuine Infiniti parts.MAINTENANCE, REPLACEMENT OR 
REPAIR OF THE EMISSION CONTROL 
DEVICES AND SYSTEMS MAY BE 
PERFORMED BY ANY AUTOMOTIVE 
REPAIR ESTABLISHMENT OR INDIVIDUAL 
USING ANY EQUIVALENT REPLACEMENT 
PART.
HOWEVER, UNLESS OTHERWISE 
AUTHORIZED BY LAW, WARRANTY 
SERVICE MUST BE PERFORMED BY AN 
AUTHORIZED INFINITI RETAILER.
The emission standards may be satisfied by 
having the vehicle inspected periodically and 
by following the requirements outlined in 
the Emission Control System Maintenance 
Schedules in your Owner’s Manual.

20LIMITED WARRANTY ON GENUINE INFINITI REPLACEMENT PARTS AND GENUINE
INFINITI ACCESSORIES¹
WHAT IS NOT COVERED

1.  Tires or batteries. These items are covered by 
separate warranties.
2.  Normal maintenance service and parts 
replacement as outlined in the maintenance 
schedule of your Owner’s Manual.
3.  Damage or failures of parts resulting from:
•• Misuse (your Owner’s Manual is your 
guide to proper use).

damage, failures or corrosion to any Infiniti 
replacement part, or Genuine Infiniti or 
Infiniti Accessory, installed in the vehicle, if 
the vehicle is issued a “salvage” or similar 
title including, but not limited to junk, scrap, 
rebuilt, or flooded titles, under any state’s 
law. This exclusion does not extend to new 
Genuine Infiniti replacement parts, Genuine 
Infiniti accessories, or Infiniti Performance 
Parts installed in/on an Infiniti vehicle after 
the issuance of a "salvage" or similar title. 
5.  Infiniti Performance Parts sold through 
Infiniti/Nissan Motorsports Group are 
sold "AS IS" without warranties, express or 
implied unless expressly prohibited from 
doing so by applicable law, in which case the 
warranty provided is the minimum required 
by law.
WHAT YOU MUST DO
In order to obtain warranty service you must 
deliver the warranted part or accessory, or 
the vehicles, on which the part or accessory 
is installed, to an authorized Infiniti retailer in 
the United States or Canada at your expense 
with proof of purchase (parts invoice or service 
repair order from an authorized Infiniti retailer). 
The names and addresses of authorized Infiniti 
retailers are listed in telephone directories. You must also pay for labor charges to remove 
and replace the part or accessory if it was 
not originally installed on your vehicle by an 
authorized Infiniti retailer.
WHAT INFINITI WILL DO
If the part or accessory to be repaired was 
originally installed by an authorized Infiniti 
retailer, it will be removed and reinstalled 
after repair at no charge for parts and labor. 
If the part or accessory was not installed 
by an authorized Infiniti retailer, the part or 
accessory will be repaired or exchanged only. 
Any needed parts replacement will be made 
using Genuine Infiniti or Infiniti approved new 
or remanufactured parts. Infiniti reserves the 
right to make changes at any time, without 
notice, to production and service parts in their 
specifications, colors, and materials, including 
those used in connection with warranty 
repairs. For this reason, when approved by 
Infiniti and at Infiniti’s discretion, functionally 
equivalent replacement parts may be used that 
do not exactly match the original production 
part.
1 Actual warranty is provided by the retailer at time of purchase and should be read carefully. This warranty is subject to change and the applicable warranty will be that which is in effect on the date 
of purchase.

WORN TIRES 
Never drive on worn tires. Tires should be 
replaced by trained personnel when 2/32nds 
of an inch tread depth remains, as indicated 
by the tread wear indicators molded into the 
tread grooves. In most states, it is illegal to 
drive with less than 2/32nds of an inch of 
tread remaining. 
TIRE MIXING 
For best performance select tires similar in 
size and load rating to the original equipment 
tires. It is recommended that the same size 
and type of tire be used on all four wheel 
positions. In certain tires, casing ply material 
and ply construction may vary as indicated 
on the sidewall of the tire. When changing 
or replacing tires, it is preferred that all four 
tires are the same construction type (i.e., 
High Performance, All Season, Mud & Snow) 
and construction (Radial or Bias Ply). Before 
mixing tires of different types on a vehicle in 
any configuration, be sure to check the vehicle 
Owner’s Manual for its recommendations. 
Tires which meet the Rubber Manufacturer’s 
Association (RMA) definition of mud and 
snow tires are marked M/S, M+S, M&S. On 
such tires, this designation is molded into the 
sidewall. Tires without this notation are not 
recommended for mud and/or snow driving. 
If snow tires are needed, it is necessary 
to select tires equivalent in size and load 
rating to the original equipment tires. 
Always fit performance snow tires in sets of four (4) for optimum mud & snow traction 
and maintenance of vehicle handling 
characteristics. If you do not, it may adversely 
affect the safety and handling of your vehicle. 
It is also important to check the vehicle 
Owner’s Manual before mixing or matching 
tires on 4-wheel drive vehicles as this may 
require special precautions. 
Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for more 
information on tire replacement precautions. TIRE ROTATION 
Tires on your Infiniti vehicle should be rotated 
every 7,500 miles or as irregular wear 
develops. If irregular wear becomes apparent 
or if the wear rate on the tires is perceptibly 
uneven, the tires should be rotated in such 
a way to alleviate the problem. Check your 
vehicle for any mechanical problems and 
correct if necessary. Any rotation pattern or 
procedure may be followed including those 
indicated in the Owner’s Manual. Some tires 
have arrows on the sidewall showing the 
direction in which the tire should turn. When 
rotating this type of tire, care must be taken 
to maintain the proper turning direction as 
indicated by the arrows. Some vehicles have 
different tire sizes specified for front and rear 
axles. Tires on these vehicles should not be 
rotated side to side (unless they are non-
directional). Where a temporary type spare tire 
is available, it should not be included in the tire 
rotation schedule. Such tires are intended for 
temporary use only. 
REPLACING TWO TIRES 
If your vehicle was originally equipped with 
four tires that were the same size and you are 
only replacing two of the four tires, install the 
new tires on the rear axle. Placing new tires 
on the front axle may cause loss of vehicle 
control in some driving conditions and cause 
an accident and personal injury.
TRAILER TOWING 
If you anticipate towing a trailer, you should 
see a tire retailer for advice concerning the 
correct size of tire and pressure. Tire size and 
pressure will depend on the type and size of 
the trailer and hitch utilized, but in no case 
must the maximum cold inflation pressure or 
the tire load rating be exceeded. Check the tire 
decal and your Owner’s Manual for further 
recommendations on trailer towing. 
TIRE ALTERATIONS 
Do not perform any alterations on your tires. 
Alterations may prevent proper performance, 
leading to tire damage, which can result in an 
accident. Tires which become unserviceable 
due to alterations such as truing, whitewall 
inlays, addition of balancing or sealant liquids, 
may be excluded from warranty coverage. 
Consult your tire warranty.
