Failure Date: 04/19/2021

Driving on my city road at 45 mph my Infiniti M35 instantly went from normal rpms to 0, brakes locking and steering as well. I was able to pull off into a company parking lot to turn my Infiniti off after getting it immediately in park. I tried to restart my car and almost five days of trying and having it towed home, I am still unable to get my car to restart. All of the interior lights from slip, brake, service enginne, the battery, etc continue to stay on. The car will try to crank but won't turn over. I have tried replacing the key fob batteries, put new oil, all new gas, 2 new batteries, multiple jumps, checked all fuses, and still nothing. The brakes are still hard to press on and locked since the idling and they won't even hardly move as I try starting the ignition. After a few tries of trying to crank all the lights stay on then loses all power again.

10 Engine And Engine Cooling problem of the 2006 Infiniti M35

Failure Date: 02/08/2017

On separate occasions for two days in a row I attempted to accelerate from a stopped position. I had no throttle control and the vehicle crept forward at idle speed until I was able to pull out of the flow of traffic safely. There was a recall a couple of years ago regarding this same issue and I had my vehicle repaired under the recall. Apparently this issue persists. An engine code was set as evidenced by the "service engine soon" display. I have not had the opportunity to investigate this code.

12 Engine And Engine Cooling problem of the 2010 Infiniti M35

Failure Date: 01/31/2014

I was driving on I-5 north CA going between lathrop and stockton where the speed limit is 70 mph when my vehicle's engine seemed to shift into neutral. I barely had enough power to get off the fwy ramp where it was safe to park. I then had the car towed to an Infiniti dealer and had them check the car. After the car was hooked up to a diagnostic machine, I was told that the right mass air flow sensor-22680-7s00a needed to be replaced. I was also told that when this sensor went bad, the engine goes into a neutral mode or close to shutdown mode to prevent damage to other parts of the engine. Once the engine problem was diagnosed, the part was replaced and the car functioned fine. What surprised me was that the service technicians were aware of the problem. This causes me great concern because there was no warning lights to indicate a problem before, during, or even after the engine malfunctioned. The car had to be hooked up to a machine to detect what was wrong. I was so frighten when this occurred because I could have been rear ended as a result of the car losing power in a matter of seconds. I replaced the left mass air flow sensor because I don't want to ever be in that same situation again. I don't feel safe driving this vehicle!.

16 Engine And Engine Cooling problem of the 2007 Infiniti M35

Failure Date: 03/12/2012

Warm air was coming out of the vents. I took it to the local Infiniti dealer and this was the diagnosis. Compressor : clutch failed to engage in compressor & therefore I had no air conditioning. I bought the vehicle new in October of 2006. It only has 35,800 miles. There is no reason for a compressor on any car to malfunction at 35,000 miles and certainly not on a luxury auto. Parts were $830, labor was $369, plus tax. Total cost of repair was $1354. 00. I have owned cars made by Ford, gm, Toyota, BMW and have never had a compressor problem. I kept an 2002 Toyota and a1996 BMW for 10 years with no compressor problems.

17 Engine And Engine Cooling problem of the 2009 Infiniti M35

Failure Date: 02/03/2012

As I was entering I-295 in attleboro, MA as I accelerated to enter the highway the car started bucking and would not go faster than 40mph. I had to manually shift the car to find a gear that would not have the car buck. In 4th gear and a speed below 45mph it was ok to drive. But I had to continue on the interstate at only 40 mph. It turned out to be that both mass air flow sensors failed. This failure led to a very dangerous situation had someone been behind me that could have led to an accident, or had I been on the highway and the car started bucking possibly a multiple car accident. The failure of both mass air flow sensors leads me to believe this is not only something that I have experienced. This is a defect that may lead to serious injury.
