The public notice of the suspension was for August 18, 2025.

Multiple electronic and sensor issues with the display screens and infotainment center. Time/time zone change from 12-hour format to military time off and on sometimes multiple times a day. Dash board routinely goes black and not displaying any information. HUD proximity alerts continually go off/flashing when no vehicles are around, tagging the same areas on a specific street that was empty. The sensor system engages the braking system after a faulty proximity alert or a vehicle is outside the normal range. Navigation system map blacking out Inability to disconnect Bluetooth calls using the steering wheel end button and the end button on the screen. The infotainment screen would not respond to menu button for the audio and climate control nor could you access it through the touchscreen menu. The radio would stop working randomly. I had to go to the dealership to get this corrected it would not restart on its own even if it was left overnight. The audio button also would not work. The car would not recognize the profile connected to the key fob routinely. After service, the car took over 8 minutes to lead the infotainment system. The blind spot warning would not function properly continuously. The car was taken into the dealership multiple times, it was assessed by "engineers" 3 times, and it had a total of 3 infotainment systems in this vehicle with 2 replacements since leasing the vehicle. These issues continue to remain and there seems to be nothing that Infiniti can or will do to fix these issues permanently.

The contact owns a 2022 Infiniti QX50. The contact stated while driving 45 MPH at night with her daughters in the front passenger and rear passenger seats, the steering wheel locked, causing the vehicle to veer off the road and crash into a ditch where the vehicle spun three times. The contact was able to drive back to the highway; however, the vehicle spun three times. The contact was able to stop the vehicle. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact's wife sustained soreness to the left shoulder, the wrist, fingers, and all over her body. The contact's daughters sustained seat belt marks, soreness on the right sides of the head, and bruises on their right knees and right shoulders. The contact's wife and daughters did not seek medical assistance. There was no police report filed. The contact's wife was able to drive the vehicle to her residence. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was opened.

While the vehicle was being operated under normal driving conditions, the hood unexpectedly disengaged and flew upward from the windshield side of the vehicle. This sudden and dangerous event substantially obstructed the driver's visibility and created an immediate risk of catastrophic injury, death, and property damage. Fortunately, no collision occurred; however, the potential consequences of such a failure are self-evident.

As I was entering the freeway, the car was hit by an object which came flying at the vehicle from the adjacent lane. The impact of the object hitting the front bumper of the vehicle caused the hood "airbags" (pedestrian actuator system) to deploy. With the deployment of the hood airbag the hood opened from the back and would not close back up as force of the airbags broke the hinges on the hood. For three days I searched for someone who could fix the vehicle, but no one knew how to do it. Finally, an Infiniti certified collision shop took the vehicle in but advised me they also did not ever repair such issue and would have to receive on-phone training from Infiniti. I proceeded to call Infiniti and file a consumer's report. My car sat in the shop for 3 months as I was told the parts were not available for repairing the vehicle. Finally, the car was completed and returned to me Nov 20. There is a warning light inside vehicle that hood is open. Some of the car's inside lights are not working. The car's headlights are altered and only a very low amount of beam light is now flashing while driving at night. I have made several attempts in my 3 month ordeal to get an appropriate response from Infiniti (asking them why they put a device on a vehicle that no one knows how to work on), but to no avail. I do not feel safe in the vehicle and do not like being Infiniti's guinea pig for a device that no one knew how to work on, and which obviously might not have been repaired correctly judging by an inside light still being on that shows hood open.
