It will tell you what recalls are available for your car.

 

i have an infiniti

 

Well, it wouldn't be too hard to figure out that Infiniti has the same thing.

 

HAHHAHA yea its late i liked the shift **** that you put in and the grounding kit too. im doin 1 but with a RF distro block instead of wat everyone else is selling

 

Solid. I have noticed an improvement so it is a worthwhile mod.

 

thanks for the link, some of these recalls i never heard of... i gotta check if it affects my car. thanks again

 

No problem. There are a couple of useful things on there.

 

Just an FYI: checked the Nissan site and there STILL have been no recalls on my '03 (manufactured in November 2003). I guess the '02's were made for R&D!
