2008 INFINITI EX35 Complaints

AUTO STALLS AT LOW SPEED MOTION EITHER WHILE SLOWING DOWN OR STARTING TO MOVE. STALLS OUT IN TRAFFIC AND ALMOST CAUSED SEVERAL WRECKS ON A CITY STREET WHEN STALLED TRYING TO GET THROUGH TRAFFIC.

WHILE DRIVING, AND I'M GETTING READY TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP. THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF. I HAVE TO PUT IT BACK IN NEUTRAL QUICKLY IN ORDER FOR IT TO START. ALSO WHILE AT A COMPLETE STOP. ONCE I ACCELERATE, THE CAR JUST CUTS OF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD! THIS WEEK ALONE I'VE ALMOST HAD THREE ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THIS. MY CAR HAS BEEN AT NUMEROUS REPAIR SHOPS. THEY'VE ALL STATED THE CANNOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. ONCE MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. BRING IT BACK. REALLY?! IT CUTS OFF DAILY, WHILE IN MOTION AT LEAST 6-10 TIMES. *TR

THE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SENSOR DOES NOT ALWAYS FUNCTION PROPERLY. EVEN WITH AN ADULT PASSENGER IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, USING THE SEAT BELT, THE PASSENGER AIR BAG STATUS LIGHT OCCASIONALLY IS ILLUMINATED (INDICATING AIR BAG IS OFF). THIS APPEARS TO OCCUR RANDOMLY. I CANNOT FIND A PATTERN ON WHAT CAUSES THIS TO HAPPEN. WE FIRST NOTICED IT MORE THAN 2 YEARS AGO, BUT DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT UNTIL NOW, WITH ANOTHER RECALL ON OUR QX60.

VARIOUS CRACKS HAVE FORMED IN THE LEATHER DASHBOARD. ONE NEAR THE ODOMETER READINGS EXTENDING TOWARDS THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW. A SECOND TO THE LEFT OF THE CENTER DASH EXTENDING FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. CONTACT INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS BECAUSE THEY REPLACED FX35 DASHBOARDS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THEY SAID THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE MY VEHICLE DASH. I FIRST NOTICED THE CRACKS ON JUNE 26, 2016. CALLED INFINITI ON JULY 1, 2016.

THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.KH

WHILE DRIVING, THE CAR CUTS OFF, I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND CUT IT BACK ON. I WAS HIT FROM THE BACK DUE TO THIS BECAUSE I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A INTERSECTION WHEN THE CAR CUT OFF WITH MY 11 YEAR OLD SON IN THE CAR. LUCKILY WE ARE OKAY AND THE DAMAGE WAS NOT BAD BECAUSE THE OTHER DRIVER WAS NOT GOING FAST BUT WHAT IF THEY WERE MY SON AND I COULD HAVE LOST OUR LIVES DUE TO THIS, AND THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MORE THEN ONE OCCASION. THE DEALERSHIP DON'T KNOW WHATS GOING ON! I AM HIGHLY FRUSTRATED WITH THIS ISSUE I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE ON APRIL 30TH 2015.
