Seats problem #1

Problem appears closer to recent recall of hundai sonata cars w/ steering wheel bags. While traveling down busy 4-lane highway, sensor light came on associated with seat and airbags. Roswell Infiniti , roswell, GA had to completely tear apart steering wheel column, work on airbags, sensors, and other items. I had just purchased vehicle from another dealer, but has only a little over 105,000 miles. Did not expect almost $4,000 in repairs due to this problem. I think it is a problem associated with other japanese models and should have a recall. Please investigate as soon as possible. When light came on I was very scared because I wasn't sure whether I should keep driving and I was over 25 miles from dealership by that time. Brought it in next day but took over 3 days to repair due to parts, etc.

Seats problem #2

In Feb 2016 when I saw the recall on the news for airbags, I called to see if the Infiniti Fx35 2008 was recalled. I was told no recall the truck is fine. Now in July 2016 I receive a letter for a passenger airbag recall. Do you know if the driver airbag is being investigated? I'm curious to know, because my mom was killed in an auto accident, while she was driving the truck in Dec. 2015. She had injury to her face, neck and more. What makes the passenger airbag inflate? is it normal for the driver seat to come off the track? thank you for you attention to this matter.
