2005 Infiniti QX56

I AM HAVING BRAKE ISSUES WITH MY 2005 INFINITI QX56. THE BRAKE LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND IT MAKES A GRINDING NOISE. IT IS ALSO VERY HARD TO GET IT TO COME TO A STOP. JUST YESTERDAY, I ALMOST COULD NOT GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT. I AM ALSO HAVING AN ISSUE WITH THE FUEL GAUGE. I HAVE RUN OUT OF FUEL 3 TIMES AND EACH TIME THE THE GAUGE IS SHOWING BETWEEN 1/2 AND 1/4 FULL. BACK IN SEPTEMBER OF 2017 WE WERE ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY. ALL OF A SUDDEN WE LOST POWER AND WE WERE GOING 70 MILES AN HOUR. WE WERE IN THE PASSING LANE AND WE LUCKY TO GET OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WE WERE ALMOST IN A SEVERE ACCIDENT. I HAVE RESEARCHED BOTH ISSUES ONLINE. I KNOW THAT THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS ON THESE ISSUES. WHEN I CALLED INFINITI ABOUT THIS, I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS IN FACT RECALLS BUT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. OBVIOUSLY, IF I AM HAVING ISSUES WITH BOTH OF THE THINGS AND THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS ON BOTH OF THEM, MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE ON THIS RECALL LIST. I SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS BEFORE PEOPLE ARE SEVERELY INJURED OR WORSE.

I WAS TOLD THE VEHICLE CAN NOT HAVE RECALL PERFORMED BECAUSE IT HAD AN AFTERMARKET FUEL PUMP. MY DAD GAVE ME THE VEHICLE BEFORE HE PAST SO I'M NOT SURE IF SOME ONE ELSE HAS WORKED ON VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE IS CAUSING GAS PROBLEMS THAT ARE UNSAFE. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER TO BUY A NEW ONE PUT IT IN THEN HAVE THEM DO A RECALL. PLEASE HELP.

I AM HAVING AN ISSUE WITH THE FUEL GAUGE ON MY 2005 INFINITI QX56. THE FUEL GAUGE IS NOT READING CORRECTLY. IT STOPS READING CORRECTLY ONCE IT REACHES ABOUT HALF A TANK OF GAS. I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT NIGHT AND I RAN OUT OF GAS. THIS WAS A VERY SCARY SITUATION BECAUSE I HAD MY KIDS IN THE CAR WITH ME AND AT THE TIME I HAD NO IDEA WHY THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF BECAUSE MY METER WAS SHOWING THAT I HAD HALF A TANK OF GAS. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC THE NEXT DAY AND HE WAS ABLE TO TELL ME AFTER A FEW DAYS OF ME TAKING IT BY THE SHOP TO GET A READING, THAT THEIR WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL GAUGE READING WHICH MEANT THAT THE TANK WOULD HAVE TO BE DROPPED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I LATER READ UP OF COMMON ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE AND SAW THAT THIS WAS A COMMON ISSUE AND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND I WAS TOLD THAT THEIR WAS NO RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE AND IT COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I WOULD LIKE FOR MY VEHICLE TO BE ADDED TO THE RECALL LIST SO THAT THIS PROBLEM CAN BE TAKEN CARE OF SINCE THERE ARE SEVERAL VEHICLES WITH THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL WITH THE EXACT SAME ISSUE.

I WAS DRIVING ON A VERY BUSY STREET GOING ABOUT 45MPH AND WITHOUT WARNING MY CAR LOST POWER. I TRIED TO ACCELERATE BUT IT DID NOT WORK AND THEN I TRIED BRAKING AND THEN I KNEW I WAS IN TROUBLE. THE CAR DID NOT RESPOND AT ALL, SO I PULLED OFF TO A SIDE STREET WHERE THE CAR ACTUALLY ROLLED TO A STOP. I COULD BARLEY TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. I FIND OUT TODAY AFTER A LITTLE RESEARCH THERE WAS A RECALL # 10V074000 ON THIS YEAR AND MODEL BUT IT'S VIN # SPECIFIC. MEANING THAT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. SO NOW I'M STUCK WITH A BILL FOR 969 BUCKS FOR THIS EXACT RECALL! NISSAN WONT BE GETTING MY BUSINESS ANYMORE, MY LIFE AND SAFETY IS WAY TO PRECIOUS !!!!!! NO RECOURSE WHAT SO EVER! UGH.

FUEL GAUGE INDICATE 1/4 TANK DURING MY DRIVE DOWN THE FREEWAY DURING SLIGHT RUSH HOUR. CAR ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS IN THE THIRD LANE OF THE FREEWAY. AN ACCIDENT OCCURRED FROM RUBBER NECKING. INFINITI OF ELK GROVE COULDN'T DIAGNOSE IT RIGHT AWAY AND THE CAR DIED 2 MORE TIMES, ONCE MORE ON THE FREEWAY, AND WAS LUCKY TO GLIDE OFF THE FREEWAY WITH NO POWER STEERING. AFTER HAVING IT TOWED 3 TIMES TO INFINITI, THEY FINALLY DIAGNOSED THE FUEL SENSOR AFTER WE RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM AND TOLD THEM WHAT TO CHECK. CHECKED ALL RECALLS AND THIS WAS LISTED AS A PROBLEM BUT INFINITI REFUSE TO COVER THIS DEFECT. AFTER OWNING A QX56, FX35 AND G35, THE RUDENESS OF THE REPAIR MANAGER LEFT A REALLY BAD TASTE. *TR
