11/7/15 AROUND 7-8PM. I (6' 250LB MALE) WAS DRIVING HOME FROM LISBON, OH / TO CANTON, OH. MY FIANC (5'6" 200LB FEMALE) WAS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, AND OUR DAUGHTER (2 1/2YR OLD 28LB) SITTING DIRECTLY BEHIND HER IN HER CAR SEAT. WHEN OUT OF THE CORNER OF MY EYE I NOTICED A YELLOW LIGHT COME ON (WHILE GOING 45-55MPH). WHEN I REALIZED IT WAS THE LIGHT SHOWING THE PASSENGER SEAT EMPTY. I HAD MY FIANC TAKE A PICTURE OF THE DASH SO I WOULD HAVE PROOF FOR INFINITI OF AKRON. THOUGH DUE TO THE FACT SHE COULD NOT ALSO GET HERSELF INTO THE PICTURE. I PROCEEDED TO TAKE ANOTHER PICTURE ( TO WHICH I ATTACHED) TO SHOW THAT SHE WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT. I WAS PLACED UNDER THE ASSUMPTION THAT THIS FAULT WAS NO LONGER POSSIBLE. DUE TO THE FACT INFINITI OF AKRON HAD ALREADY COMPLETED THE RECALL, AND GAVE MY CAR A CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH. SO WHY IS MY CAR STILL HAVING ISSUES? WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE FOR INFINITI TO ADMIT THERE'S STILL AN ISSUE? GOD FORBID AN ACCIDENT TO HAPPEN, AND AIRBAG NOT DEPLOY. WILL THE PRESIDENT OF INFINITI BE THERE TO HELP ME RAISE MY DAUGHTER? TO EXPLAIN TO HER WHY MOMS NOT AROUND? I HIGHLY DOUBT IT! SO PLEASE INFINITI PEOPLE PUT THEIR ENTIRE WORLD IN YOUR HANDS. I'VE TRUSTED YOU ENOUGH TO BUY YOUR CAR. NOW I TRUST YOU'LL DO EVERYTHING IN YOUR POWER TO MAKE SURE IT'S SAFE NOT ONLY FOR MY FAMILY. BUT EVEN FAMILY WHO CHOOSES TO PUT THEIR FAMILY IN AN INFINITI.

FROM THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE LEASE THE VEHICLE THERE HAVE BEEN ISSUES WITH INTERRUPTED AND UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION OF THE VEHICLE. THESE WERE FIRST REPORTED TO THE DEALERSHIP AS "HESITATION ON ACCELERATION, ADVISE" WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED AT 4,849 MILES ON 01/30/2014. THE COMPLAINT HAS BEEN REPEATED TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND TAKEN TO INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS. I HAVE GONE THROUGH RECORDING INCIDENTS WITH A MONITOR IN THE VEHICLE, HAVING A SPECIALIST DRIVE THE VEHICLE FOR SEVERAL DAYS (AND ALTHOUGH HE DID DRIVE IT FOR A FEW HUNDRED MILES IT WAS MOSTLY HIGHWAY DRIVING AND NOT THE TYPE OF STOP AND GO DRIVING WHERE THE INCIDENTS MORE REGULARLY OCCURRED). AFTER HAVING THE VEHICLE RETURNED LAST WEEK I FINALLY DID SOME RESEARCH AND SAW A NEW YORK TIMES ARTICLE (11/07/2014) DESCRIBING A RECALL FOR THE ISSUES I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT. IN THE ARTICLE ONE OWNER STATED THE CAR WAS A "MENACE. IT FEELS LIKE IT IS ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN. EVERY TIME I HAVE HAD THIS INTO THE DEALER I HAVE COMPLAINED, AND THEY CLAIM THE ISSUE CANNOT BE DUPLICATED. FINALLY, THEY HAVE BEGUN TO TELL ME IT IS NORMAL WITH THIS HYBRID CAR. THIS IS NO NORMAL EVENT." SEVERAL WEEKS AGO MY YOUNGER SON, AN ATTORNEY, WAS DRIVING AND EXPERIENCED THE SAME THING. HIS COMMENT WAS, "WHAT WAS THAT, IT TOOK OFF ON ITS OWN!" I JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THEY TOLD ME THE SAME THING, THAT IS THE MANNER IN WHICH THE VEHICLE IS SUPPOSE TO DRIVE. IF THAT IS NORMAL AND THE WAY THE VEHICLE IS SUPPOSE TO DRIVE THEN IT SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE ROAD BEFORE THERE ARE ANY FATALITIES. I HAVE BEEN A RESPONSIBLE OWNER AND HAVE TRIED TO DEAL WITH THIS THROUGH INFINITI BUT THEY HAVE TURNED THEIR BACK ON ME, OTHER INFINITI CONSUMERS AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC FOR THE LAST TIME. I HAVE DECIDED IN THE INTEREST OF PUBLIC SAFETY TO REPORT THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM TO A GOVERNMENT AGENCY.

DURING WINTER 2014, I STARTED GETTING AWD / CHASSIS CONTROL ERRORS CONSTANTLY. THE ERROR WOULD SHOW UP AT VARIOUS TIMES, INCLUDING WITHIN 3-5 MIN FROM A COLD START, 10-15 MIN AFTER ENGINE REACHED OPERATING TEMPERATURE, WHILE DRIVING AFTER 20-30 MIN. SOMETIME THE ERROR IS FOLLOWED BY A SURGE IN POWER. EVERY TIME THIS HAPPENS, THE AWD SYSTEM GOES OFFLINE AND THE CAR WORKS IN REAR WHEEL DRIVE ONLY. IN SNOW OR RAIN THE CAR BECOMES DIFFICULT TO DRIVE. THIS PAST WINTER, I WAS NOT ABLE TO GET THE CAR UP MY DRIVEWAY. AFTER TURNING OFF THE CAR, THE ERROR GOES AWAY BUT IN 90% OF THE CASES IF COMES BACK WITHIN A FEW MINUTES. THE CONDITION IS NOT RELATED TO WEATHER (HAPPENED IN WINTER, SPRING AND SUMMER). THE ECU TROUBLE CODE POINTS TO A SOLENOID CONTROLLING THE AWD SYSTEM ON THE CAR. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER MANY TIMES. ALL THE RECALLS HAVE BEEN RESOLVED, INCLUDING A FEW ECU RECALLS AS I UNDERSTAND. THE DEALER REFUSED TO CHANGE THE POSSIBLE FAULTY SOLENOID SINCE EVERY TIME THEY TESTED THE CAR, THE PART WAS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE CAR IS BRAND NEW (3200 MILES AS OF AUGUST 13TH). I HAVE LEFT THE CAR AT THE DEALER FOR OVER 2 WEEKS AND DROVE A LOANER. AT WHAT POINT IN TIME CAN I CONTACT INFINITI AND ASK THEM TO REPLACE THE CAR SINCE THEY DON'T SEEM TO WANT TO FIX IT. PERHAPS THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT OTHER HAVE AND WE CAN FORCE INFINITI TO INVESTIGATE THIS FURTHER.

THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR SYSTEM WILL INTERMITTENTLY ACTIVATE WHEN MY WIFE (SMALL STATURE ADULT) IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. ABOUT HALF THE TIME THE SYSTEM WILL ACTIVATE WHEN SHE GETS IN THE CAR AND ABOUT HALF THE TIME IT STAYS OFF. I BROUGHT THE CAR INTO SERVICE AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPORT THE SYSTEM IS OPERATING WITHIN SPECIFICATIONS. I CONTACTED INFINITI BUT MY DISCUSSIONS WERE EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING. THEY DENY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR. THEY STATE THAT IT IS DUE TO THE OCCUPANT NOT SITTING CORRECTLY. THEY CAME TO THEIR CONCLUSION WITHOUT OBSERVING HOW SHE SITS IN THE CAR AND WITHOUT GIVING SUGGESTIONS ON WHAT SHE IS "DOING WRONG". I FIND THIS FRUSTRATING SINCE THIS IS THE SAME REASONING THEY REPORTED IN SEPTEMBER OF 2013 PRIOR TO ISSUING A LARGE RECALL IN APRIL 2014 AND AFTER AN INITIAL SMALL RECALL IN APRIL 2013. I CURRENTLY BELIEVE THE SENSOR SYSTEM IS DEFECTIVE. I DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS RELATED TO HOW SHE SITS IN THE CAR. WE HAVE TRIED DIFFERENT WAYS OF SITTING IN THE CAR AND NOTHING WE DO SEEMS TO HELP. SHE HAS NEVER HAD A PROBLEM IN VEHICLES MANUFACTURED BY OTHER CAR COMPANIES. AND EVEN IF I ACCEPT THEIR ARGUMENT IT STILL SHOULD BE CONSIDERED DEFECTIVE BECAUSE AN AIR BAG SYSTEM SHOULD NOT HAVE A 50% RELIABILITY RATING AND BE SO DEPENDENT ON IF SOMEONE SITS 1 MM OFF CENTER. THERE SHOULD BE A MARGIN OF SAFETY TO PROTECT AGAINST FAILURE DURING ROUTINE DAY TO DAY OPERATION. I JUST WANT THE CAR TO BE FIXED. AND I WANT MY FAMILY AND THE PUBLIC AT LARGE TO BE SAFE. I AM CONCERNED THAT NISSAN/INFINITI IS DENYING A PROBLEM EXISTS FOR ECONOMIC REASONS AND TO PREVENT ANOTHER RECALL. I REALLY APPRECIATE ANY ASSISTANCE YOU AND YOUR AGENCY CAN PROVIDE IN THIS MATTER. *TR

EVEN AFTER DAS REPROGRAM (ITB14-006) PER CAMPAIGN END OF JANUARY '14, DAS FAILED AT COLD TEMP AT START UP. AFTER DRIVING 10 MIN, I PARKED THE CAR OUTSIDE FOR 30 MIN AT 0 DEGREE F. WHEN RESTARTED, ENGINE WAS ON BUT MULTIPLE WARNINGS APPEARED (SAME AS REPORTED ON 1/11/14). THIS HAPPENED 2 TIMES AT COLD TEMP BEFORE REPROGRAMMING, AND PREVIOUSLY, I WAS NOT ABLE TO TURN TIRES AT ALL BECAUSE STEERING WAS JUST TOO HEAVY. HOWEVER, THIS TIME (#3), I WAS ABLE TO TURN TIRES EVEN THOUGH IT WAS STILL HEAVIER THAN USUAL. THE BACKUP MECHANICAL STEER MUST HAVE KICKED IN, AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AND MOVE THE CAR TO MORE SECURE PLACE AND WAITED. IN PREVIOUS 2 OCCASIONS, AFTER 40 MIN AND 10 MIN EACH TIME WHEN THE CAR WARMED UP, ALL ALARMS DISAPPEARED. THEREFORE, I WAITED, AND AFTER 40 MIN OF ENGINE RUNNING, I RESTARTED THE CAR AND ALL ALARMS DISAPPEARED, AND THE CAR FUNCTIONED NORMALLY. EVEN THOUGH THE MECHANICAL STEER KICKED IN AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR, IT WAS OBVIOUS DAS STILL FAILED AT COLD TEMP. THE FUNDAMENTAL DAS FAILURE PROBLEM AT COLD TEMP HAS NOT BEEN SOLVED AFTER THIS REPROGRAM, BUT AT LEAST NOW THE BACKUP MECHANICAL STEER WORKS IN THIS SITUATION. OF SEPARATE NOTE, IN OTHER 2 OCCASIONS, I WAS NOT ABLE TO CHANGE VOLUME OF AUDIO. THAT WAS SOLVED BY TURNING CAR OFF AND ON. SINCE THIS CAR HAS MULTIPLE SENSORS AND CONTROLS, I AM NOT CERTAIN IF EVERYTHING IS RUNNING NORMALLY OR NOT, IF EVEN A VOLUME CONTROL OF AUDIO FAILS AT TIMES, SINCE THIS IS ONLY THING THAT I CAN TELL IMMEDIATELY, BUT SOMETHING ELSE THAT I CANNOT RECOGNIZE WHILE DRIVING MAY BE IN FAULT MODE WITHOUT ME KNOWING IT. *TR

ON JANUARY 8, 2014, I WAS SCHEDULED TO BRING MY Q50 FOR SERVICE FOR VARIOUS ISSUES AND PICK UP A LOANER. THAT AM IT WAS ABOUT 3 DEGREES F IN CHICAGO. WHEN I STARTED THE CAR, I SAW A SERIES OF WARNING LIGHTS, INCLUDING DYNAMIC CONTROL, SEAT BELT LIGHT (MY SEAT BELT WAS ON), MASTER WARNING LIGHT, MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT, BRAKE WARNING LIGHT, DIRECT RESPONSE HYBRID SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT AND ONE UNIDENTIFIED LIGHT. I LIVE 3 MILES FROM THE SERVICE CENTER AND HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO HEAD TO THE DEALER TO DROP OFF THE CAR AND PICK UP MY LOANER. THE CAR SEEMED TO OPERATE NORMALLY AT FIRST. AFTER 5 MINUTES IN SLOW TRAFFIC, I SAW THE "CHASSIS CONTROL SYSTEM ERROR" APPEAR. I WAS NOW ABOUT 1.5 MILES FROM INFINITI. I MADE IT 1 MILE FROM THE SHOP WHEN THE CAR JUST STOPPED ON THE ROAD. IT WOULD NOT MOVE BUT THE HEAT AND RADIO WERE STILL WORKING. THEN A WARNING LIGHT CAME ON THAT SAID "WARNING SHIFT TO PARK." I SHIFTED TO PARK AND WAS THEN ABLE TO PUT IT BACK IN DRIVE AND MOVE ONCE AGAIN. EVERY TIME I SLOWED TO A NEAR STOP, THE CAR WOULD DIE AGAIN AND ASK ME TO PUT IT IN PARK. I WAS ABLE TO LIMP THE CAR TO WITHIN 3 BLOCKS OF INFINITI WHEN IT STOPPED AND COULD NOT BE RESTARTED. THE CAR WAS NOW STUCK ON HALSTED ST. DURING CHICAGO RUSH HOUR. TWO GUYS IN A TRUCK PUSHED MY CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I CALLED INFINITI AND THEY PICKED ME UP AND GAVE ME A LOANER. I PHOTOGRAPHED THE SCREENS WITH THE WARNINGS. ITS NOW JANUARY 31ST AND THE CAR IS STILL NOT READY. I WAS TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REPLACED AND IT WAS COMING FROM JAPAN. CAR TO BE READY FEBRUARY 4TH, 28 DAYS AFTER IT DIED ON THE ROAD. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND HAVE BEEN GIVEN A COMPLETE RUN AROUND. THEY SAID THEY WERE CONSIDERING A BUYBACK BUT 3 PLUS WEEKS INTO THE PROCESS I WAS TOLD THEY WILL NOT BUY IT BACK. I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR AND MUST SELL IT FOR A LARGE LOSS. *TR

In April 2014, Nissan North America launched Safety Recall 14V-138 to address problems with the Occupant Classification System (OCS) algorithm in the following vehicles: model year (MY) 2013-2014 Nissan Altima, Pathfinder, Sentra and LEAF; MY 2013 Infiniti JX35; MY 2014 Infiniti QX60 and Q50; and MY 2013 Nissan NV 200/Taxi vehicles.According to Nissan, the OCS may misclassify adult front passenger occupants and turn off the passenger's frontal air bag for an adult occupant of sufficient weight.In March 2015, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened this Recall Query after the agency received approximately 124 complaints alleging problems with the OCS after the recall repairs and/or other OCS related repairs were made by Nissan/Infiniti dealers.The majority of the complaints alleged the passenger air bag status light stays on (i.e., indicating passenger air bag is turned off) for adult front passengers of sufficient weight.Many of the complaints stated the dealers have made multiple repairs but the problem still persists.In its June 2015 response to ODI's information request under the Recall Query, Nissan provided approximately 1,121 complaints and field reports on the recalled vehicles.These reports alleged OCS issues similar to the NHTSA reports described above.At this time, NHTSA has received a total of approximately 208 complaints (note: total of 1,271 reports shown in the table above eliminates 58 duplicative reports received by ODI and manufacturer).This Recall Query has been upgraded to an Engineering Analysis (EA15-004) to conduct a comparative assessment and further evaluate the effectiveness of the recall remedy which will include a thorough review of the countermeasures taken by Nissan and its suppliers.The ODI reports cited above can be reviewed online at http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/owners/SearchNHTSAID under the following identification numbers:10583283 10585264 10585349 10585379 10592434 10593399 10593501 10594329 10594614 10594755 10595161 10595645 10595946 10596128 10596459 10596952 10597037 10597452 10597518 10597719 10598537 10598869 10604755 10604834 10605188 10605251 10606565 10606828 10607038 10609649 10610519 10610991 10614467 10614609 10614745 10616905 10617008 10617507 10617903 10618099 10618202 10619059 10619563 10620719 10621840 10622214 10625808 10625981 10625998 10626006 10626023 10626335 10626458 10626732 10628355 10629382 10629460 10629606 10630441 10630502 10630990 10632251 10632588 10632934 10632997 10633714 10633810 10637994 10638591 10639040 10639147 10639324 10639473 10643046 10643843 10644203 10644333 10644341 10644690 10644891 10644985 10648834 10648997 10649414 10649772 10649874 10651360 10651564 10651924 10651982 10652024 10658665 10658844 10659484 10660294 10661195 10661358 10661541 10661795 10661855 10662901 10663033 10663338 10663860 10663978 10668054 10668768 10670538 10672807 10673088 10676471 10678478 10678997 10679512 10680748 10680769 10680975 10681656 10682235 10682902 10682993 10683391 10683689 10689672 10689809 10689981 10691626 10692137 10692558 10692625 10693168 10695312 10700614 10700960 10701008 10701011 10701014 10701018 10701023 10701027 10701031 10701032 10701035 10701045 10701055 10701064 10701074 10701146 10701196 10701228 10701237 10701254 10701301 10701306 10701326 10701367 10701370 10701384 10701415 10701453 10701526 10701558 10701656 10701670 10701946 10702003 10702667 10702798 10703032 10703657 10703766 10703813 10704196 10704988 10705530 10705919 10706621 10712543 10712568 10712575 10713335 10714316 10714330 10714536 10714980 10715132 10715945 10717336 10720918 10720971 10721331 10721746 10723424 10724568 10731167 10731868 10732012 10732065
