general problems of the 2011 Infiniti EX35

My drivers side door lock actuator does not allow the drivers door to be opened if its below 30 degrees fahrenheit. We just got a bomb cyclone bringing snow and for the second winter in a row (new actuator installed last winter for same complaint) my actuator has failed. I di not know what is going on with Infiniti’s parts but every person I know who has newer Infiniti has to get their actuator changed every year because the car locks them inside. If there were to be a crash or a fire or some type of emergency, I…along with every Infiniti owner would have to attempt to escape their car through another door or risk death.

The door lock actuators fail to work for the doors both inside and outside if the temperature gets below 40 degrees fahrenheit. (also within this weather, my outer door handle which is physically attached to said actuator) has broken off. I've repaired one actuator with an aftermarket one but the drivers door actuator is only made by Infiniti. The cost of the part alone is $800 the labor is another $300. The risk is that in the case of a crash, engine fire, and/or severe mechanical failure, I will be unable to exit my vehicle and will subsequently die should such an situation occur. I've spoken to several mechanics that tell me it's quite common with nissans and Infiniti's. I've seen on dozens of forums that they believe there should be a recall on this since it's been happening for 20+years and isn't covered under warranty due to being a wear and tear part.
