1 Electrical System problem of the 2008 Infiniti EX35

Failure Date: 09/12/2020

While driving the car I noticed that every time I hit a bump or dip in the road, it feels like I am going to lose control of the vehicle. The car is extremely hard to control when hitting a bump on the street or highway and it's scary. I also noticed that the car jerks violently when changing gears in the automatic transmission. I bought the car in may of this year, its under 100k miles. I contacted the dealership and I'm waiting on a response.

2 Electrical System problem of the 2009 Infiniti EX35

Failure Date: 04/16/2018

I took the car to jim coleman Infiniti service department to find out why the air bag warning light is flashing non-stop. After the diagnostic they concluded it was due to passenger side OCS sensor faulty, so in order to replace the sensor they need to replace the entire passenger seat due to sensor embedded in the seat and asking for around $4500 for parts and $600 for labor. It's outrageous! although I bought the car at 2009 I hardly drive the car and took metro to work most of the time so the mileage is only <50k. After I did a research on the web I discovered that the 2007, 2008 Infiniti Ex35 model all have the same exact problem that resulted a recall. Per NHTSA, a sensor located in the passenger seat cushion "may have been manufactured out of specification. Under certain conditions, this could cause an interruption of signal between the OCS [the occupant classification system -- which activates the airbag when the passenger seat is occupied] and the airbag control unit. This could result in the passenger airbag being suppressed, which could fail to provide adequate protection in the event of a crash. " it appears that Infiniti did not fix the problem for the 2009 model which was probably already on the sales lot and as long as there's no warning light flashing they assume no sensor problem but the underlying sensor defect still exist and waiting to erupt. I should not have to pay for Infiniti's obvious design/manufactured sensor defect especially it is the well-known sensor defect that cause their 2008 recall (https://cars. Usnews. Com/cars-trucks/daily-news/081016-urgent-recall-alert-Nissan-Infiniti-recalling-200-000-vehicles-for-airbag-defect). Please advise what I can do to make Infiniti to be responsible for fixing the same defect from the 2008 recall at no charge to the customer deceived by them? thank you very much.

3 Electrical System problem of the 2008 Infiniti EX35

Failure Date: 12/21/2016

While driving, and I'm getting ready to slow down or stop. The car completely shuts off. I have to put it back in neutral quickly in order for it to start. Also while at a complete stop. Once I accelerate, the car just cuts of in the middle of the road! this week alone I've almost had three accidents because of this. My car has been at numerous repair shops. They've all stated the cannot find anything wrong. Once my check engine light comes on. Bring it back. Really?! it cuts off daily, while in motion at least 6-10 times.

4 Electrical System problem of the 2010 Infiniti EX35

Failure Date: 08/07/2015

On Friday 7-August-2015 my wife's 2010 Ex35 did not crancked. Vehicle got towed to Infiniti service department. Diagnostic was ran and the faulty part is the steering wheel lock unit. A former Infiniti mechanic told me that Nissan altima's use the same part and got recalled on those vehicles. He also states that with just moving the telescoping the steering wheel in and out the problem goes away. He was right and now the vehicle starts. However service department states that the vehicle could lock the steering wheel while driving. They want $1,100 to fix the problem. My take is that this is a safety issue and should be threated as the same situation as the altima.
