Service bulletins for the 2016 Infiniti Q70

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

ITB18-0032018-02-21. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS. REDUCED VEHICLE LOAD CAPACITY LABEL (REGULATORY REQUIREMENT) This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with dealer installed or VPC installed accessories. SERVICE INFORMATION The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) requires that any automobile dealer that installs accessories on a vehicle prior to first retail sale must install a special label (?reduced capacity label?) on that vehicle if the total weight of all accessories on that vehicle exceeds 1.5 percent of the vehicle?s gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) or 100 pounds, whichever is less. This includes accessories that the dealer installs (dealer installed factory accessories and dealer installed aftermarket accessories), and accessories installed at the Vehicle Processing Center (VPC) prior to the vehicle being delivered to the dealer. IMPORTANT: Failure to comply with this requirement may result in penalties imposed by NHTSA. Follow the instructions in this bulletin to help meet these requirements.

ITB17-0562018-01-29. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT. 2014 - 2018 Q70 AND QX80; INTELLIGENT KEY BATTERY DISCHARGED SERVICE INFORMATION If the Intelligent Key is stored within 15 feet of the vehicle, the BCM may continue to ?ping? the Intelligent Key keeping it awake. Keeping the Intelligent Key awake may result in discharging its battery in a much shorter period of time than normal (premature battery discharge). Example: The Intelligent Key should not be stored in a lock box or other storage container attached to the outside of the vehicle. To prevent premature Intelligent Key battery discharge, store the Intelligent Key more than 15 feet from the vehicle. If unable to store the Intelligent Key more than 15 feet from the vehicle (for example, when a vehicle is on display in the showroom); the following steps will prevent the BCM from continuing to ?ping? the Intelligent Key: - Disable the welcome light function using the on-board methods outlined in this bulletin, or - Disable the welcome light function using the CONSULT-III plus methods outlined in this bulletin. NOTE: If an Intelligent key is routinely stored within 15 feet of a vehicle while it is in dealer inventory, the Intelligent Key battery should be replaced before the vehicle is delivered to the customer. This will ensure the customer receives Intelligent Keys without premature discharge. Intelligent Key batteries replaced for this reason are not covered under warranty.
