2011 Infiniti QX56

THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE WAS CHECKED BY INFINITI SERVICE. THE RIGHT SIDE CATALYTIC CONVERTER FAILED. WE REPAIRED THAT (ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO). TODAY, THE SAME SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND IT IS THE LEFT CATALYTIC CONVERTER. THE TOTAL AMOUNT SPENT TO REPAIR BOTH OF THE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS WILL BE OVER THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS. FROM SPEAKING TO THE MECHANIC AND RESEARCHING ONLINE, IT APPEARS THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS FAILING ON THIS VEHICLE IS A PREVALENT PROBLEM. THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE ISSUE TO FIX AND IT SEEMS LIKE MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE. ALTHOUGH THERE MAY NOT BE A LARGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE REPORTING THIS ISSUE ON THIS SITE, IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING BASED ON THE ONLINE FORUMS I HAVE READ.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 INFINITI QX56. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED CONTINUOUSLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SEWELL INFINITI OF FORT WORTH (5135 BRYANT IRVIN RD, FORT WORTH, TX 76132) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83,000.

WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED ON MAY 5, 2017. MY WIFE WAS DRIVING IT DOWN A CITY STREET AT LESS THAN 45MPH, AND IT BROKE DOWN ON US ON MAY 23RD, AND WAS SENT IN FOR REPAIRS. TOLD IT WAS A RELAY OR AN ISSUE WITH THE TIMING. GOT THE VEHICLE BACK ON JUNE 1, AND HERE IT IS JUNE 7TH AND AT THE SAME LOCATION AS BEFORE, AT THE SAME SPEED, IT BROKE DOWN WITH THE SAME ISSUE. WE'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR ONE MONTH AND BEEN IN THE SHOP TWICE. PLEASE HELP AS THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE A VERY COSTLY REPAIR.

I HAVE A FAILED FUEL RAIL PRESSURE SENSOR WHICH IS PART OF A VOLUNTARY SAFETY RECALL THAT WAS DONE IN 2012. I CALLED THE MANUFACTURER TO INFORM THEM ABOUT MY FUEL SENSOR THEY TOLD ME THAT MY CAR ISN'T PART OF THE RECALL BECAUSE THEIR ENGINEERS DETERMINED THAT IT WASN'T PART OF THE RECALL! I'M NOT SURE HOW THEY DETERMINED THAT OUT OF ALL CARS PRODUCED THAT YEAR. NOW I'M STUCK WITH A CAR I CAN'T DRIVE UNLESS I TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND SPEND MONEY TO GET IT FIXED. MY ONLY HOPE NOW IS THAT SOMEONE FROM NHTSA CAN HELP ME OUT AND GET THEM TO FIX THEIR DEFECTIVE PART! THANKS

THE BATTERY CONSTANTLY GOES DEAD IN THE CAR. I BOUGHT A NEW INFINITY BATTERY IN THE CAR THE SAME THING HAPPENED. YOU CAN REPRODUCE THIS PROBLEM BY SITTING IN THE CAR LISTENING TO THE RADIO FOR 30 MINUTES. I WAS SITTING IN THE CAR LISTENING RADIO AND THE CAR BATTERY WENT DEAD AND THE CAR SHUT OFF. THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE, THE QX56 IS A 8 CYLINDER CAR. IT DOES NOT CHARGE VERY EASILY. I HAVE TO CARRY A BATTERY CHARGER IN MY CAR. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED SEVERAL TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO INFINITY AND THEY CLAIM NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR. SINCE IT IS A BIG CAR THE BATTERY DRAIN QUICKLY.
