Some INFINITI QX50 owners report experiencing check engine light issues related to the vent control valve, which is a vital part of the Evaporative Emission Control System designed to prevent fuel vapors from escaping into the atmosphere. These owners note that when a problem is detected with the vent control valve or the overall system, the check engine light illuminates, either blinking or remaining constantly lit, depending on the severity of the issue. In more serious cases, the vehicle may enter an "emergency" state, limiting engine acceleration to ensure safety. Common symptoms associated with these vent control valve issues include the illuminated check engine light and potential EVAP system problems. It is crucial for owners to address these check engine light concerns promptly to avoid further damage and maintain vehicle efficiency, and consulting a qualified mechanic for diagnosis and resolution is highly recommended.
