The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the timing chain had failed, and the failure was related to Infiniti Campaign Number: P6305.

2014 NISSAN JUKE Complaints
While driving in the rain, my 2014 Nissan Juke began to smoke underneath the hood. I immediately pulled over and a fire ignited, burning the front half of the car and totaling it. The fire department extinguished the fire. The fire appeared to start near the area of the driver side headlight. There were no warning lamps or previous symptoms.;
2015 INFINITI QX70 Complaints
Brake fluid began leaking onto the ABS actuator circuit board and created an electrical fire. This melted the engine harness and the connector to the abs module. This was confirmed by dealership technicians at Sewell Infiniti - Dallas. Dealership informed me they could not fix the vehicle because the part needed to replace (affected by a different recall), was discontinued and made me tow the vehicle to my house. The issue was confirmed by mechanics at Parkwood collision - Frisco. InfinitiUSA customer service acknowledged the issue and that they would have the original supplier of the engine harness (discontinued) make me one if I purchased at the dealership (which to my understanding would not solve the original issue at hand). It is available to inspect upon request. I have pictures and videos. The fire did put myself and others at risk as the engine harness was melting and shorting out while pulling my vehicle to the side of the road. It has not been inspected by insurance rep; at this time. There were zero issues with the vehicle or modifications to vehicle at the time of the incident. There were no warning lamps or symptoms until it was too late.;
2015 INFINITI QX80 Complaints
The contact owns a 2015 Infiniti QX80. The contact stated that while driving at 60 MPH, the rear passenger-side wheel began to detach from the control arm, causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle. Despite the failure, the contact was able to pull over to the highway shoulder. Upon inspection, the contact observed that the rear passenger-side tire was resting at a 45-degree angle. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, where it was discovered that the rear control arm was severely corroded. The mechanic then informed the contact that an unknown TSB was related to the failure, and the contact was referred to the manufacturer for assistance. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that there was no recall or warranty coverage on the vehicle. The contact was provided a case number and was referred to the dealer, who determined that the entire rear subframe needed to be replaced. The dealer had given the contact's mechanic an estimate for the repair. The vehicle had yet to be repaired and remained in the mechanic's possession. The failure mileage was approximately 135,000.;
