A website has been established to inform Class Members of their rights under a Nissan, Infiniti peeling paint class action settlement.
A settlement has been struck which, if approved, will resolve claims that the paint on Nissan and Infiniti vehicles peels prematurely. The settlement awaits final approval by the court.
While the website is live, it is not accepting claims yet. Top Class Actions will provide claim filing instructions as soon as they become available.

Class Members include all those customers in the U.S. and U.S. territories who purchased a white-painted Nissan Rogue that was produced between Jan. 11, 2013 and April 23, 2013, and/or who purchased a white-painted Infiniti QX56 produced between Nov. 20, 2009 and Dec. 12, 2012.
The Nissan Rogue, Infiniti class action lawsuit was filed by Michelle Nelson in November 2017. She claimed that she purchased a used 2011 Infiniti QX56 with “Pearl White” paint for around $43,000.
Allegedly, there were around 68,000 miles on the vehicle when she purchased it. Nelson states that she purchased a 48,000 mile, 48-month extended warranty from a Nissan affiliate for $6,500.
Nelson says that on or around February 2017, she noticed that the paint on her vehicle began to fade, and the next month, the paint began to peel. According to the Nissan paint class action lawsuit, the peeling was caused by a defect that is common to many Nissan Rogue and Infiniti vehicles.
The Nissan peeling paint class action lawsuit alleged that Nissan was aware of the defect, but continued to sell the vehicles without warning customers of the defect.
Additionally, the Nissan class action lawsuit claims that Nissan failed to take responsibility of providing meaningful relief to customers who complained about the problem.
Nissan has not admitted any wrongdoing, but agreed to settle the false advertising claims to avoid the costs and risks of continuing to litigate.
If the settlement is approved, Class Members have a few options in the Nissan peeling paint class action settlement. The deadline to file a claim is Dec. 19, 2020. Customers who receive benefits will waive their right to pursue independent litigation against the company.
Customers may also exclude themselves from the settlement by Nov. 29, 2019. Customers who do this will not receive benefits, but will retain their rights to pursue independent litigation against the company over the issue. Class Members who do nothing will not receive benefits and will give up rights to sue the company about the issue.
Class Members may also object to the settlement by Nov. 29, 2019, or may attend a hearing about the fairness of the settlement on Dec. 19, 2019.

My 2011 Nissan micra paint is peeling off
The paint on my roof bumper nd around my Nissan 2011 Micra is chipping off (Flaking)
Black Altima Nissan. Top of car has rust. Paint peeled on hood and trunk
I own a 2010 Nissan Altima SL purchased new with all the bells and whistles. Paint started to chip, now is rusting on the roof. Mileage is 65,000 & Nissan won’t do anything even though they are aware of their paint issues. I’m sure everyone knows these paint issues etc. brings down the value of your Nissan!
2013 Infiniti QX56 Pearl White; paint is peeling off the roof so bad! Pretty much peels more daily!
add me
I own a 2007 Nissan armada, bought it brand new. The hood and the roof has fade from black to white. I painted the hood at the cost of $1000.00 .
I own a 2010 Nissan Titan and I am starting to see areas of my paint starting to fade and peel. I have had it for a total of 5 yr and the mileage on it was at 61000 when I bought it. I have always taken care of my truck and washed it as need. The very first time it has ever been through an automatic cash wash was after I took it in for servicing at a Nissan McGavick and they washed it as a courtesy when you get your oil changed. I have spots that are on the hood between the side quarter panel and the body going to the roof of my truck that is peeling and areas along the seal the is on the roof of my truck that is peeling. It is starting to show on the roof where the paint is starting to lose the clear coat and beginning to fade. What can I do???
I have a 2014 QX80 Pearl White and the hood started peeling in 2021 so I paid about $1300 to repaint. Now as of 10/22 my roof is even worse. It is peeling all the way across the top of the windshield.
Same year and color and I’m having the same problem!
Hi we own a White 2015 Nissan Quest that is peeling and ALL others I’ve seen this color and make peeling in same exact spots (I’ve taken pictures)
My husband and I purchased a 2012 Infiniti Q56, Pearl white in 2020. The paint started peeling on the roof and then the trunk door. We love our truck but the paint is hideous!!
I have a Nissan Quest 2014 with pearl white that has started peeling all over, It started on the back and now has worked its way around the sides. I was quoted 13.000 to fix it. Seems very unfair to me.
I have a White 2019 Nissan Altima that has been peeling on the hood of the car for about 6 months now. I bought it to the attention of a Nissan Representative and I was told it was not under warranty. I’ve had the car less than 3 years and the paint should not be chipping everyday. The paint job wasn’t done correctly from the manufacturer originally and Nissan doesn’t want to pay for it. I am so disappointed in Nissan because this is my third car I’ve purchased from them. I was a loyal customer until now. Nissan has lost my trust in them and also white cars.
