Nissan North America is recalling 102,095 Infiniti M vehicles in the U.S. and Canada because a defect in an accelerator sensor could cause the engine to stall.
The recall effects vehicles released for the 2006-10 model years.
"On some vehicles, an accelerator pedal sensor may cause the vehicle to go into a fail-safe or limp home mode when the pedal is pushed to the right while being depressed," Nissan North America said in a statement. "In rare instances, this may cause the engine to stop running while idling or coming to a stop. In these instances, the vehicle can restart." The cars were manufactured between August 2004 and January 2010.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has yet to comment about the recall.
"No other North American market Nissans or Infiniti models (are) involved," said Steve Yaeger, a Nissan spokesman, according to Edmunds.
No accidents or injuries have been reported relating to the recall.
Infiniti dealerships will replace the accelerator pedal assembly and reprogram the engine control module or ECM, free of charge.
The recall is expected to begin in early November.
