SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 5 TIMES IN A YEAR. ALMOST CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT ON 1/15/14 CAR WENT FROM 55 TO 30 AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE HAD TO PULL TO THE SHOULDER AND TURN OFF THE VEHICLE TO RESET - SERVICE AT INFINITY COULD NOT DUPLICATE PROBLEM AND DIRECTED ME TO CONSUMER AFFAIRS - CONSUMER AFFAIRS SAID AFTER ALMOST A MONTH - THEY DENIED MY REQUEST FOR A REPLACEMENT SINCE "THE PROBLEM COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED THE VEHICLE IS DEEMED REPAIRED". INFINITY ONLY TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE ONCE IN THE MONTH IT WAS THERE. EVEN IF THEY CANT DUPLICATE IT I FEEL I AM PUTTING MY FAMILIES AND OTHERS LIVES IN DANGER. THEY ARE FORCING ME TO RETURN THE LOANER CAR AND PICK UP MY VEHICLE. I SEE THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW COMPLAINTS FOR THIS PROBLEM AND I'M LOOKING FOR WHAT TO DO NEXT? *TR

THE ENTIRE COMPUTER ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILED AND OVERHEATED THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS CAUSING THE CAR TO DIE OUT AFTER WE RETURNED IT TO OUR GARAGE! THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHO ADVISED ONE OR TWO DAYS DEPENDING ON PART DELIVERY. IT HAS BEEN 8 DAYS SINCE DELIVERY AND WE ARE TOLD THE PART IS NOT AVAILABLE ANYWHERE AND ON BACK ORDER! THE ONLY REASON WE CAN THINK OF FOR A CRITICAL COMPONENT NOT BEING AVAILABLE IS EITHER THIS IS AN EXTENSIVE PROBLEM OR THE DEFECTIVE PART NEEDS TO BE REDESIGNED TO PREVENT FUTURE FAILURES! WE NEED TO GET INFINITI TO AGREE TO A BUYBACK AND GET US INTO A NEW CAR OF THE SAME COLOR COMBINATION AND EQUIPMENT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! THE LEMON JX35 THEY SOLD US CAN NO LONGER E TRUSTED BY ME OR MY FAMILY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 INFINITI JX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHT LENSES HAD WATER VAPOR ON THE INSIDE, WHICH OBSCURED THE CONTACT'S VISIBILITY. THERE WAS NO WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RAY CATENA INFINITI OF EDISON (900 US-1, EDISON, NJ 08817, 732-603-9600) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

I WAS INVOLVED IN ACCIDENT ON JANUARY 1, 2014 AT APPROXIMATELY 12:00 P.M. WHILE PROCEEDING ON VINE STREET NEAR ITS INTERSECTION WITH ESSEX STREET IN SAUGUS, MA. THE WEATHER CONDITIONS WERE CLEAR AND DRY AS I APPROACHED THE STOP SIGN FOR ME ON VINE STREET. IN THE REAR SEAT OF THE VEHICLE WERE MY DAUGHTER AND HER TWO FRIENDS. I WAS DRIVING AND NO ONE WAS SEATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. WHEN I APPLIED MY BRAKES AS I APPROACHED THE STOP SIGN, I DID NOT FEEL ANY STOPPING POWER. RATHER THAN PROCEED INTO THE INTERSECTION (WITH TRAFFIC TRAVELING ON ESSEX STREET) I IMMEDIATELY TURNED THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT TO GO UP ON AN ISLAND TO STOP THE VEHICLE. IN THE PROCESS OF BRACING MYSELF FOR AN IMPACT AFTER GOING UP ON THE ISLAND I SEVERELY EXTENDED MY LEG SO FORCEFULLY THAT THE LEFT KNEE MENISCUS WAS TORN REQUIRING SURGICAL REPAIR ON FEBRUARY 3, 2014. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED AAA AND HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP (KELLY INFINITI ) WHERE I HAD PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AS I DID NOT FEEL IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. THERE WAS APPROXIMATELY $2000 WORTH OF DAMAGE DONE TO THE UNDERSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. ALTHOUGH THIS VEHICLE WAS SUBJECT TO A RECALL NOTICE (WHICH WAS NEVER RECEIVED BY ME) THE DEALERSHIP AND NISSAN NORTH AMERICA HAVE TAKEN THE POSITION THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM SOFTWARE WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED MY ACCIDENT TO OCCUR. *TR

THERE IS A POIGNANT BURNING SMELL WHEN MY 2013 JX35 IS FULLY WARMED UP, STOPPED AT LIGHT OR STATIONARY. WAS ABLE TO OBSERVE CLEAR OILY SUBSTANCE ON THE RUBBER SECTION/SIDE OF THE POWER STEERING LINES WHERE IT IS HELD BY THE WHITE FACTORY CONNECTOR AT THE FIREWALL. THE SAME CLEAR SUBSTANCE TRAVELS DOWN CENTRALLY OVER THE CROSS-MEMBER AND ONTO THE HOT EXHAUST SYSTEM AND SMOLDERS/BURNS. THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY SIMILAR PROBLEM AS THE NISSAN 2013/2014 MURANO CAMPAIGN NUMBER IS: 17V184000. DEALER HAS CONFIRMED LEAK IS POWER-STEERING FLUID AND LINE SHOULD BE REPLACED AT OWNER'S EXPENSE. OWNER'S CONTENTION IS THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD EFFECTING MY AND OTHER UNITS INCLUDING THE NISSAN PATHFINDER. ALL ARE BASED ON MURANO PLATFORM.
