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.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 INFINTI FX35. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V349000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART NEEDED TO PERFORM THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE DEALER DECLINED A LOANER VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 INFINITI FX35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD HAD MELTED AND CAUSED A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD WHEN DRIVING DURING THE DAYTIME DURING BRIGHT SUNLIGHT. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

THE DASHBOARD OF THE VEHICLE HAS STARTED TO MELT/BUBBLE UP. THIS HAS RESULTED IN A VERY SHINY/STICKY DASH WHICH ON SUNNY DAYS REFLECTS LIGHT BACK UP ONTO THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD CREATING A VERY DISTRACTING/OBSTRUCTING GLARE MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD. INFINITY EXTENDED THEIR WARRANTY FROM 2010 UP TO 2014 TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD BUT WILL NOW DO NOTHING TO CORRECT THIS SAFETY HAZARD EVEN THOUGH IT DID NOT APPEAR ON MY CAR TILL THIS YEAR.

MY 2006 INFINITI DASHBOARD STARTED TO DEVELOP BUBBLES APPROXIMATELY 4 YEARS AGO. THEY HAVE PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE OVER TIME. I JUST FOUND OUT THAT INFINITI EXTENDED THE WARRANTY TO 8 YEARS BUT I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED BY THEM OR THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. IN ESSENCE THEY WERE HIDING THE FACT THAT THEY OFFERED A NO CHARGE FIX. THIS IS A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM THAT COULD AFFECT THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SINCE THAT IS THE AREA INVOLVED. MY WARRANTY EXPIRED 6 MONTHS AGO AND SINCE I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED I AM NOW LEFT TO PAY FOR THE FIX ON MY OWN. INFINITI USA AND MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP ARE UNWILLING TO COVER THE EXPENSE OF THE REPAIR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 INFINITI FX35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,000.

THE DASH IS BUBBLING. CALLED INFINITY. THEY HAD A RECALL BEFORE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FOR A REPLACEMENT DASH BUT WILL NOT COVER IT NOW. *TR
