The windshield is covered in hundreds of microscopic, pen-sized indentations that refract light like diamonds when hit by the sun or a flashlight. This creates a dangerous "white-out" effect, blinding the driver and making the vehicle unsafe to operate during the day.This is not a single impact from a road projectile; it is a systemic failure of the glass surface to withstand basic atmospheric conditions (sand and dust). A vehicle designed for "travel" must have glass capable of withstanding the friction of air and dust. If everyday travel causes the glass to disintegrate into a "glitter" field, the glass is defective. Filing an insurance claim to install the same defective OEM glass does not solve the problem. I am requesting that Nissan replaces this windshield with a properly tempered unit that meets safety and durability standards. The dealership has seen the "diamond" effect under a flashlight and acknowledged how severe it is. It’s hard to get good pictures of a windshield but after taking it to the dealership for them to send pictures to the executive company, they should have good pictures uploaded, but here’s what I have
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2020-2026 Nissan Armada, 2011-2013 Infiniti QX56, and 2014-2027 QX80 vehicles equipped with 22" wheels. The Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) listed on the certification label is incorrect, which can allow the vehicle to be overloaded. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: An overloaded vehicle can increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will install new labels, free of charge. Additionally, Nissan will mail replacement labels to owners. Interim letters notifying owners of the safety risk were mailed September 2, 2026. Additional letters will be sent once the final remedy is available, anticipated Fall 2026.
