While driving in residential/business area my vehicle completely lost power and turned off. I drifted to the side of the road without power steering. Tried to start vehicle again. Vehicle would start but would immediately die-would not idle. After resting approx 5 minutes I was able to start again and continue home. This has happened 3 times in the past 2 months. I am terrified to drive this vehicle again. I also cannot keep the drivers side headlight working. Bulbs constantly blow out at over 300. 00 dollars each.
Condensation in headlights that cause failure to headlights.
This letter is in reference to a previous complaint filed with Infiniti consumer affairs on December 3, 2009, regarding my vehicle shutting completely down, stalled out, not moving in the drive or reverse position at a busy intersection on a rainy stormy evening. This occurrence could have caused a serious accident or worse, a fatality. As a result of police assistance and having my vehicle towed directly to the dealership, to date there are no mechanical issues found by the dealer related to my vehicle shutting down at the intersection. My complaint contains additional serious vehicle issues regarding my headlights, instrument cluster/panel, and the fuse box under the hood. Both headlights on my vehicle suddenly stopped working at the same time. The bulbs were replaced and the headlight fuses were found to be functioning. The instrument panel/cluster light blinks constantly as I drive and the panel/cluster gauges are completely not functioning properly. Fuses have been checked under the vehicle’s hood and results indicate some of the 10 amp fuses are not functioning at all. I am concerned that there should have been a safety recall regarding my 2005 Infiniti qx 56, which appears to jeopardize my safety. There are no legitimate answers or explanations as to why my vehicle’s headlights are not working, the cluster/panel has malfunctioned, or why some fuses underneath my vehicle’s hood are not functioning. As a result of my vehicle’s expired warranty and mechanical failures, I have consumed a great deal of out-of-pocket expenses, including a traffic citation regarding my headlights. I am limited and inconvenienced to driving my vehicle at night as a result of my inoperable headlights which can cause me great harm. I am requesting that my situation be given serious immediate attention and resolution.
