When driving and coming to a stop at (30-35 mph) you would hear a loud "clunk", and the engine would stop. You have no control of the steering and no brakes. We experienced this infinity defect 7-8 times over a 90 day period. First incident 9-14-13. Note- received recall letter (13v-430) from infinity 11-04-13. Made service apt with nalley infinity, marietta, GA. To perform work related to recall letter. I was reimbursed for repairs made on 9-14-13. However, on 12-26-13 while driving in jacksonville, fla. The same problem occurred, and repeated itself 3-4 times that evening before I could reach the infinity of orange pk. Fla. On 12-27-13. Infinity of orange pk. Made the repairs. . . The cost to me for this repair was $561. This itemized bill was sent to infinity consumer affairs in franklin, TN, and they refused reimbursement. Stating that they could only reimburse for one occurrence. This inifinity incident was very dangerous, freighting and scary when it happens. We are fortunate. . . There was no accident, but it has destroyed our confidence in the infinity auto, infinity service and all infinity products.

4 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 11/20/2011

I was driving my 2006 Infiniti M35x home Sunday night and it began to stall on me while driving. The car wouldnt accelerate and the brakes locked on me. I was on the freeway going about 70mph when this happened. The steering wheel wouldnt turn anymore and I began to panic as another speedy vehicle would potentially rear end me and maybe even kill me. I put my emergency lights on and called for help. My fuel gauge read about a half tank full of gasoline. I had a friend bring me gas to see if that was why this car wouldnt start anymore and unfortuanetly it was the problem. The fuel gauge was not working properly and I could of got myself killed in a big accident that way. Idk what to do! the warranty is not valid anymore and I do not have money to fix this issue. Please help!.
