1 Steering Column problem of the 2009 Infiniti M35

Failure Date: 05/01/2017

March 7, 2017, Nissan agreed to replace the steering column lock on the 2009-2010 altimas and maxima due to the malfunctioning of the electric steering column lock free of charge. I have the exact problem with my 2009 Infiniti M35x which Nissan also make. There need to be a recall on this electronic part for all Infiniti, altima, and maxima. It cost $900 to $1,500 to replace the part. I have been stranded several times. Some times in dangerous locations late at night with my children. The car cost me enough, now I have to buy a part that might fail soon then I will have to spend another grand or so. Recall please.

2 Steering Column problem of the 2007 Infiniti M35

Failure Date: 05/04/2015

This car has an undrivable issue of tramlining. It is so hard to stear when there are grooves or road imperfections. . . Unlike any other vehicle I have ever driven. An Infiniti mechanic told me the problem is a defect in design of the steering rack. I can change the struts/shocks and put new tires and that will not help. . . I have been told. Please fix this problem so I can safely drive my car. It is so jittery to stear, I will not let my wife drive it. Update: I spent $450 at the Infiniti dealer to try and fix the steering. Reset a sensor and alignment. Nothing changed. Constant tramlining. I am told that a redesigned steering column would fix the issue. Again, this is dangerous. The car will not stay straight on a smooth straight road. Very dangerous in cornering.
