I AM THE SECOND OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE. THE DASHBOARD HAS BEEN MELTING SINCE 2012. I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO A NEW ORLEANS INFINITI DEALERSHIP WHO TOLD ME TO CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER BECAUSE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE BUBBLED MELTING DASHBOARDS. I CALLED THE MANUFACTURER IN 2012 AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE RECALL HAD EXPIRED. I ASKED THEM WHY DIDN'T I GET A NOTIFICATION THEY STATED THAT THE NOTIFICATION WENT TO THE ORIGINAL OWNER. AT THIS TIME THEY UPDATED THEIR SYSTEM WITH MY ADDRESS AND CONTACT INTO. I TRIED AGAIN IN 2016 THEY TOLD ME THE SAME THING, THAT IT EXPIRED. I TRIED AGAIN AUGUST 2018 AND WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL WAS EXTENDED BUT ONCE AGAIN IT EXPIRED IN 2014, THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING BECAUSE I CALLED IN 2012 AND WAS TOLD I NO LONGER QUALIFIED ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT IT WAS EXTENDED AND I STILL WASN'T NOTIFIED OF THE EXTENSION. MY 'LUXURY' LEATHER SEATS HAVE ALSO BEGUN CRACKING AND TEARING UP. I AM SO DISPLEASED WITH THIS EXPERIENCE. I HAVE OWED MY VEHICLE FOR 8 YEARS AND WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER INFINITI, THIS IS A LUXURY BRAND VEHICLE AND I AM VERY EMBARRASSED TO RIDE AROUND WITH ANYONE IN MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THIS IS ALWAYS THE FIRST QUESTION PEOPLE ASK ABOUT....WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR DASHBOARD?? PLEASE HELP ME GET THIS RESOLVED.

MY 2006 FX 35 DASHBOARD HAS BUBBLED. IT IS SO UGLY THAT WE HAD TO BUY A COVERING TO COVER IT UP. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO A CAR THAT WE SPENT A LOT OF $ ON AND IS SUPPOSED TO BE A "LUXURY" CAR -- MY HUSBAND GOGGLED AND FOUND THERE WAS A RECALL IN 2015 ON 2006 INFINITY FX 35 AND ALSO FOUND THAT INFINITI ADMITTED TO USING A POOR MATERIAL ON THEIR DASHBOARDS WHICH WAS THE REASON THEY ARE ALL COMPLETELY FALLING APART AND BUBBLING UP. [XXX] CALLED IMMEDIATELY TO SEE HOW WE COULD GO ABOUT GETTING THE VEHICLE FIXED AND WAS ADVISED THE RECALL EXPIRED IN 2015 -- AND THAT A LETTER WAS NEVER SENT TO ME, IT WENT TO THE ORIGINAL OWNER (WE BOUGHT IT IN 2015) AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY WOULD DO FOR US. THIS IS THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE WE HAVE EVER RECEIVED -- INFINITI SHOULD TAKE PRIDE IN THEIR VEHICLES AND SHOULD OWN THEIR MISTAKE AND PAY FOR ALL CUSTOMERS WHO HAVE BEEN AFFECTED -- THEY THEN ASKED HIM WHICH INFINITI DEALER HE WENT TO FOR SERVICING TO WHICH HE REPLIED I HAVE GONE TO THE ONE IN ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND. TO REPLACE THIS DASHBOARD, IT WILL COST AROUND $1,500 OR MORE -- I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER INFINITI AGAIN IF INFINITI DOESN'T DO THE RIGHT THING AND HELP OUT THEIR CUSTOMERS -- INADEQUATE NOTIFICATIONS WERE SENT OUT AND WERE NEVER FOLLOWED UP ON, I WAS NEVER ADVISED ANYTHING OF THIS BY MY LOCAL DEALER, AND NOW I AM BEING LEFT TO PICK UP THE PIECES FINANCIALLY. I AM DISGUSTED BY THE POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE WE HAVE RECEIVED AND THE UNWILLINGNESS TO HELP US AS I AM NOT A "VALUABLE ENOUGH CUSTOMER" SINCE I DON'T UTILIZE THE DEALERSHIP FOR MY SERVICES -- IF INFINITI DOESN'T DO THE RIGHT THING AND PAY FOR THE DASHBOARD THAT WAS DESTROYED BY THEIR POOR MATERIALS THAT THEY USED, NOT BECAUSE OF THE FAULT OF ITS DRIVERS, SINCERELY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I RECEIVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL FROM INFINITI INDICATING AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. THE LETTER INDICATED I WOULD RECEIVE A SECOND NOTICE SOON. I WAITED TWO WEEKS AND DID NOT RECEIVE AN ADDITIONAL NOTICE. I CALLED THE MAIN NATIONAL CONSUMER AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT AND A CASE WAS OPENED. I HAVE SINCE CALLED FIVE ADDITIONAL TIMES AND RECEIVED NO CALL BACK. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO CORRECT THIS IMPORTANT RECALL. MY CASE NUMBER IS: [XXX]. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN THE PAST REGARDING THE BUBBLING OF MY DASHBOARD. THIS ALSO WAS A RECALL AND WHEN I FINALLY CALLED BECAUSE I DID NOT RECEIVE A NOTICE OF THIS PROBLEM, I WAS TOLD THAT RECALL HAD EXPIRED SO I NO LONGER COULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT. I CONTINUE TO GET THE RUNAROUND EVERY SINGLE TIME I CALL OR EMAIL. I CAN NEVER GET ANSWERS OR ANYTHING FIXED. THIS IS INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING ESPECIALLY WHEN THE LETTER INDICATED THAT PASSENGERS SHOULD NOT RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT BECAUSE OF THIS RECALL AND DANGER. AGAIN I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING FROM INFINITI AS PROMISED OR WHEN I HAVE CALLED. THE LAST TIME I SPOKE WITH A REPRESENTATIVE WAS ON SEPTEMBER 8. PLEASE HELP. THANK YOU.

TAKATA RECALL SEE ATTACHED NOTIFICATION RECEIVED IN AUGUST OF 2016. NOTE RED AND UNDERLINED AREAS. INFINITI ADVISED OWNERS TO HANDLE THIS RECALL IN AN UNACCEPTABLE WAY FOR TWO REASONS 1. AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT WHILE DRIVING IS LIKELY TO CAUSE A WRECK WHICH COULD ENDANGER OTHERS UNRELATED TO THE RECALL 2. METAL PIECES WOULD NOT JUST HIT THE PASSENGER SEAT, THEY WOULD GO THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE THE FIRST OF MY MANY CALLS TO INFINITI ENDED WITH NO SOLUTION, NO PLAN FOR LOANER CARS OR REPLACEMENT AND SAYING THEY HAD REALLY BEEN HIT BY SURPRISE. THE SECOND CALL I GOT A CASE NUMBER AND WAS TOLD ALL OF MY CALLS WERE BEING RECORDED. I RECEIVED A CALL FROM INFINITI THAT THEY HAD AN INTERIM FIX, TO CALL MY SERVICE MANAGER AND ASK FOR IT. BUT, THAT WHEN THE REAL REPLACEMENT PART WAS AVAILABLE, THEY WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE INTERIM ONE WITH IT. MY SERVICE AGENT TOLD ME, HE CAN'T DO IT BECAUSE IT'S THE SAME PART THAT'S IN THE CAR NOW. IT'S ACTIVITY TO APPEAR THEY ARE DOING SOMETHING. INFINITI CONFIRMED IT BEING THE SAME PART. EACH PERSON HAS A DIFFERENT SPIN, FROM ASKING HOW MANY MILES MY CAR HAS ON IT TO TELLING ME THE INTERIM PART WON'T CAUSE HARM IF THE AIRBAGS ARE DEPLOYED IN AN ACCIDENT (EVEN JUST A FENDER BENDER) BECAUSE THEY PUT BUBBLE WRAP AROUND IT. INFINITI IS NOT COMMUNICATING, NOT BEING HONEST AND ENDANGERING MANY LIVES. THEIR UNETHICAL BUSINESS PRACTICES LEAVE NO DOUBT THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO HIDE WHAT THEY ARE DOING FROM NHTSA TOO. AS THE SOLE GUARDIAN OF A 9 YEAR OLD, I PRAY NOTHING HAPPENS TO ME WHEN I DRIVE THE CAR TO WORK EVERY DAY AND IT'S HARD TO EXPLAIN WHY SHE CAN'T GO SOMEWHERE BECAUSE SHE CAN'T RIDE IN MY CAR ANYMORE. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO TRASH THE CAR AND START OVER BUT I DO HAVE THE MORALS AND VALUES THAT KEEP ME FROM SELLING IT TO SOMEONE ELSE. SOMEONE HAS GOT TO STEP IN AND MAKE INFINITI DO THE RIGHT THING.
