WHEN CAR IS SLOWING DOWN, IT WILL JUMP WILDLY WITH THE RPM'S AND SHIFT INTO DIFFERENT GEARS. CAR COULD HIT ANOTHER CAR OR PERSON IF THE BRAKE IS NOT HELD FIRMLY. CANNOT GET THE LOCAL DEALER OR CORP. TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM OR FIX IT. THE CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING WORSE BUT THE DEALER SAYS TO DRIVE IT UNTIL THERE IS A HARD FAILURE. I AM CONCERNED THE CAR WILL JUMP AND HIT SOMETHING OR SOMEONE. THE DEALER SAYS THERE COULD BE A COMPUTER PROBLEM BUT THEY ARE NOT SURE AND DO NOT WANT TO EAT THE COST OF A COMPUTER IF THAT IS NOT THE PROBLEM. I LOOKED THIS SITUATION UP ON GOOGLE AND FOUND THAT THIS PROBLEM IS KNOWN FOR THIS PARTICULAR MODEL CAR. IT DID NOT DO THIS BEFORE UNTIL ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON I-5 NORTH CA GOING BETWEEN LATHROP AND STOCKTON WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 70 MPH WHEN MY VEHICLE'S ENGINE SEEMED TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL. I BARELY HAD ENOUGH POWER TO GET OFF THE FWY RAMP WHERE IT WAS SAFE TO PARK. I THEN HAD THE CAR TOWED TO AN INFINITI DEALER AND HAD THEM CHECK THE CAR. AFTER THE CAR WAS HOOKED UP TO A DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE, I WAS TOLD THAT THE RIGHT MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR-22680-7S00A NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT WHEN THIS SENSOR WENT BAD, THE ENGINE GOES INTO A NEUTRAL MODE OR CLOSE TO SHUTDOWN MODE TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO OTHER PARTS OF THE ENGINE. ONCE THE ENGINE PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED, THE PART WAS REPLACED AND THE CAR FUNCTIONED FINE. WHAT SURPRISED ME WAS THAT THE SERVICE TECHNICIANS WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THIS CAUSES ME GREAT CONCERN BECAUSE THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHTS TO INDICATE A PROBLEM BEFORE, DURING, OR EVEN AFTER THE ENGINE MALFUNCTIONED. THE CAR HAD TO BE HOOKED UP TO A MACHINE TO DETECT WHAT WAS WRONG. I WAS SO FRIGHTEN WHEN THIS OCCURRED BECAUSE I COULD HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED AS A RESULT OF THE CAR LOSING POWER IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. I REPLACED THE LEFT MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO EVER BE IN THAT SAME SITUATION AGAIN. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE! *TR

VEHICLE STEERING SEEMS TO HAVE ITS OWN MIND AT ALMOST ALL SPEEDS AND TENDS TO LUNGE FROM ONE SIDE TO ANOTHER REQUIRING CONTINUOUS CORRECTION. THE WHEELS SEEM TO FOLLOW MOST EVERY DEFORMITY / IRREGULARITY OF THE ROAD. ONE INSTANCE THE VEHICLE MOVED OVER FROM ONE LANE TO THE MIDDLE OF ADJOINING LANE ALMOST CAUSING A CRASH. WHEN STOPPING THE STEERING CAN SWING UPTO 45 TO 60 DEGREES IN EITHER DIRECTION. HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER MORE THAN THREE TIMES - FIRST TIME WITH 18000 MILES ON THE CAR. HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ADVISED THAT EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL. RESEARCHED ON WEB AND FOUND MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS WITH THIS MODEL CAR DESCRIBED AS 'TRAMLINING'. LAST TIME I TOOK A PRINT OUT OF NUMEROUS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS FROM THE WEB TO THE DEALER BUT THEY STILL REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM. THEY SAID THERE IS NO SOLUTION OFFERED BY INFINITI FOR THIS PROBLEM AND RECOMMENDED TO CHANGE THE TIRES. HAVE CHANGED THE OEM TIRES AT 26000 MILES, DONE ALIGNMENT THREE TIMES, BRAKES SERVICED BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. HAVE REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO THE INFINITI CUSTOMER SERVICE AS WELL BUT NO SOLUTION OFFERED. I FEEL INFINITI IS DENYING TO RECOGNIZE THIS SERIOUS PROBLEM WHICH HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

MY LEASED 2010 INFINITY WITH 245-45-RSA 18" TIRES INSTALLED. IN 14000 MILES TIRES HAVE SUFFERED 3 LOW PROFILE TIRES WITH SIDEWALL DAMAGE DUE TO STRIKING POTHOLES REQUIRING REPLACEMENT.HAVING DRIVEN 60YRS AND OVER 900,000 MILES EXPERIENCED ONLY ONE TIRE SIDEWALL DAMAGE WITH BUBBLE/RUPTURE IN ALL THAT TIME. HAVING BEEN INVOLVED IN AUTO RACING MY DRIVING SKILLS ARE BETTER THAN THE AVERAGE DRIVER.I AVOID AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE POT HOLES BUT IT IS INEVITABLE TO CONTACT SOME. I ALSO TRY TO SLOW DOWN AS SAFETY PERMITS SO AS TO HAVE A LOWER IMPACT ON SAID POT HOLES. STILL 3EA.TIRES IN 14000 MILES ARE DUE TO THE "LOW PROFILE TIRE DESIGN" THE SHALLOW ASPECT RATIO IS THE CULPRIT. AS A FAA LICENSED AIRCRAFT & ENGINE MECHANIC AND FAA LICENSED PRIVATE PILOT I AM QUITE FAMILIAR WITH A WALK A ROUND NECESSARY BEFORE A AIRCRAFT IS FLOWN,I ALSO APPLY THIS TO THE TIRES ON MY VEHICLE. IF THERE IS A BUBBLE OR SIDEWALL DAMAGE THE POTENTIAL FOR A "BLOWOUT" ON THE HIGHWAY AT SPEED WITH ONE'S SELF , FRIENDS OR FAMILY FOR INJURY OR DEATH DUE TO A TIRE BLOWOUT EXISTS. MY OPINION IS THAT LOW PROFILE SHOULD BE SOLD ONLY ON LIGHTER WEIGHT SPORTS CARS AND IN AREA'S OF THE COUNTRY WHERE POTHOLES ARE NOT SEEN.IN OTHER WORDS WARMER CLIMATES CAN HAVE LOW PROFILE TIRES AND COLDER CLIMATE AREA'S SHOULD NOT UNLESS REQUESTED BY THE DRIVERS OF CARS THAT MAY BE EQUIPPED WITH THESE TIRES ON A REQUESTED BASIS. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ALL TO COMMON PROBLEM AS THE TIRE MANUFACTURERS MAKE MONEY REPLACING THESE TIRES AS DO THE NEW CAR DEALERS AS THE RETAILER OF THESE DANGEROUS TIRES.I SHOPPED FOR THE LAST TIRE REPLACED AT MY EXPENSE AND THREE TIRE RETAILERS STATED THEY REPLACE A ABNORMAL AMOUNT OF THESE TIRES DUE TO THE SAME REASON. *KB

ON THREE SEPARATE DAYS, I HAD TROUBLE STOPPING MY BRAND NEW INFINITI M35. THE FIRST DAY, ON FOUR OCCASIONS WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES, THE CAR BUCKED AND SHOOK AND CONTINUED TO GO FORWARD BEFORE FINALLY STOPPING. ON THE SECOND AND THIRD DAYS, THIS OCCURRED TWICE EACH DAY. SEVERAL PEOPLE SAW THIS HAPPENING AND SCREEMED FOR ME TO PUT THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL OR TURN OFF THE MOTOR. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE INFINITI DEALER THREE TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. CHECKED THE COMPUTER READ OUT, ROAD TESTED THE VEHICLE FOR 70 MILES, AND INSPECTED IT THOROUGHLY BUT COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. MY FRIEND TRIED TWICE TO APPLY THE BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR PEDAL SIMULTANEOUSLY BUT COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM THAT I HAD. ON EACH OCCASION, I WAS SCARED TO DEATH AND WAS SHAKING AND SWEATING. I AM AFRAID THAT I WILL BE KILLED IN THIS CAR DUE TO A MALFUNCTION THAT CAN NOT BE DIAGNOSED. IF ANYONE ELSE HAS HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM, PLEASE REPORT IT SO THAT INFINITI WILL KNOW THAT THEY HAVE A SERIOUS, INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WITH THE M35 THAT MIGHT END UP BY KILLING PEOPLE. *DT

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2001-2003 Maxima, 2002-2006 Sentra, 2002-2004 Pathfinder, 2007-2011 Versa Sedan and Versa Hatchback, 2001-2004 Infiniti I30 and I35, 2002-2003 Inifiniti QX4, 2003-2008 Infiniti FX35 and FX45 and 2006-2010 M35 and M45 vehicles. The vehicles are equipped with non-desiccated, frontal passenger air bag inflators containing phase stabilized ammonium nitrate (PSAN) propellant that were used as interim remedy parts for previous Takata recalls. These inflators may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to high absolute humidity, high temperatures, and high temperature cycling.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front passenger air bag inflators with alternate desiccated inflators, free of charge. The recall began February 12, 2020. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 888-737-9511 or Infiniti customer service at 888-810-3715.

Additionally, if not included in "Zone A" above, Nissan is recalling certain 2009-2010 Infiniti M35 and M45 and 2009 Nissan Versa sedans and hatchbacks originally sold, or ever registered, in Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia, or "Zone B". Additionally, if not included in "Zone A" or "Zone B" above, Nissan is recalling certain 2005-2008 Infiniti FX35 and FX45, 2006-2010 Infiniti M35 and M45, and 2007-2008 Nissan Versa vehicles originally sold, or ever registered, in Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. These vehicles are equipped with certain air bag inflators assembled as part of the passenger frontal air bag modules used as original equipment or replacement equipment. In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the front air bags, these inflators may rupture due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to absolute humidity and temperature cycling.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: An inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front passenger air bag inflators, free of charge. The recall began on June 8, 2017. Owners will receive a second notice when remedy parts become available. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

Sep 26, 2013
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2006-2010 Infiniti M35 and M45 vehicles manufactured April 4, 2004, through October 5, 2010. Over time, the accelerator pedal sensor signal may deteriorate resulting in the output of an incorrect signal causing the engine to go into fail-safe (limp home) mode.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: In this fail-safe mode, throttle valve deposits may cause the engine to stall when the vehicle is coming to a stop or at idle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the accelerator pedal assembly and reprogram the engine control module, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin during November 2013. Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
Oct 5, 2009
NISSAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2008-2010 VEHICLES ORIGINALLY SOLD IN OR CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN THE STATES OF CONNECTICUT, DELAWARE, IOWA, ILLINOIS, INDIANA, MASSACHUSETTS, MAINE, MARYLAND, MICHIGAN, MINNESOTA, MISSOURI, NEW HAMPSHIRE, NEW JERSEY, NEW YORK, OHIO, PENNSYLVANIA, RHODE ISLAND, VERMONT, WASHINGTON D.C., WEST VIRGINIA AND WISCONSIN. THE MATERIAL IN THE NUT USED TO SECURE THE SENSOR-TRANSMITTER OF THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) MAY CORRODE AND POTENTIALLY CRACK IN AREAS WITH HEAVY CONCENTRATIONS OF ROAD SALT. IF THIS OCCURS, THE NUT MAY COME OUT OF THE SENSOR-TRANSMITTER AND THE TPMS LAMP WILL ILLUMINATE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THE TPMS LAMP IS DISREGARDED AND THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO BE DRIVEN IN THIS CONDITION, THE TIRE WILL QUICKLY LOSE AIR PRESSURE AT A CONSISTENT RATE RESULTING IN A FLAT TIRE INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy: THE DEALER WILL REPLACE THE TPMS NUT WITH A NEW, MORE ROBUST NUT. THIS SERVICE WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN ON OR BEFORE NOVEMBER 9, 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261 AND INFINITI AT 1-800-662-6200.
