4 Steering problem of the 2010 Infiniti EX35

Failure Date: 11/11/2016

I am writing this email due to a life threatening incident while driving my 2010 Infiniti Ex35(VIN:jn1aj0hr5am757428). I was driving the vehicle on route us1 around 45-50 miles per hour when the steering wheel got stuck and would not move. I was in the first lane of a 3 lane road and with lot of difficulty was able to stop it on the shoulder. This was really crazy that the steering wheel could get stuck while driving the car. I could have got killed or could have killed some one due to this issue. I called the service center and they said that the power would have got lost and hence the steering wheel got stuck. I asked if they could tow the vehicle and they mentioned they could not tow the vehicle and it was my responsibility. I am really surprised by such a poor lack of service by your service center where I actually bought the car. Anyways I am too scared to drive the vehicle again and would like my full money back so that I can buy a different model car. I have towed the car to the ray catena Infiniti service center.

I started my vehicle this morning and a yellow light with a key came on for the first time, I thought is was the key battery so I paid no attention, got to my destination and turned the car off, a few minutes later got back into the car to head home and it won't start. I was stuck there for five hours trying to get it started with help from a locksmith and my mechanic, finally found the issue on google was a faulty steering wheel lock unit which 37 other people had problems with and was charged $900 and up to fix by the dealers they know of this issue but won't recall it. My mechanic moved the steering up and down with the lock release and finally got it started.
