1 Exterior Lighting problem of the 2005 Infiniti QX56

Failure Date: 05/01/2015

My airbag light stays on constantly. There is a knocking sound that occurs as well when I'm driving. I'm concerned if I'm involved in a collision my airbags will not deploy. I contacted Infiniti and was told they need to reset it and will cost $800. 00 and my extended warranty did not cover it and was not part of the recall list. The ipdm ecm relay switch causes my instrument cluster gauge to go in and out, the check engine light comes on, my truck jerks trying to switch gears, it will sometimes start up after several tries, it causes the rpm's to read over 7 when I'm only driving 60 mph. It should read between 2 and 3 rpm's. I'm constantly switching the ecm relay plugs to start my truck. The air bag and ipdm ecm relay was not covered under my extended warranty when I purchased my vehicle. This has been going on since I purchased it 4years ago.

Left headlamp has condensation collecting and high beam was not functioning. Bought a replacement bulb and found this not to be the problem. "box" located in the headlamp that is square and hard plastic has water inside this. Part was looked up and found to be >$300 to replace. Is there a recall on this particular issue. The right headlamp is working fine and has no condensation.
