Used 2013 Infiniti FX37 buyer's checklist

  1. Run the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls. No recalls on file, but check anyway.

  3. Air Bags โ€” 2 owner reports. Confirm the airbag warning light turns off after start-up and any airbag recall was completed.
  4. Power Train โ€” 1 owner reports. Test-drive through all gears, including reverse; note slipping, harsh or delayed shifts.
  5. Mileage to watch. Owners typically reported problems around 58,500 miles; ask what was repaired near that point.
