I WAS DRIVING HOME AND WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. I FELT A JERK FROM UNDER THE HOOD THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. MY CAR THEN BEGAN TO DRIVE VERY SLUGGISHLY AND STRUGGLED TO PICK UP SPEED. I MADE IT HOME A FEW BLOCKS AWAY AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE SHOP WHERE I WAS TOLD I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. THE CODES I RECEIVED WERE P1754, P1757, AND P1759. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE 5 SPEED ONLY. I WOULD LIKE TO ADD THAT I HAVE NEVER HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON OR HAD ANY PROBLEMS WIH MY VEHICLE UNTIL NOW. I THINK IT SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO THE AWD AS WELL.

TAKATA RECALL. I OWN 2005 INFINITY FX45. THEY RECENTLY HAD A MASS RECALL, BUT ONLY IN CERTAIN STATES, "HIGH HUMIDITY " STATES. LET'S RECAP. MY VEHICLE HAS ALWAYS LIVED IN MICHIGAN. MY DASHBOARD IS HIGHLY DAMAGED BY THE BAD ADHESIVE USED IN SEVERAL MODELS COVERING SEVERAL YEAR'S OF INFINITY /NISSAN VEHICLES. WHICH THE COMPANY CLAIMED AGAIN, ONLY OCCURRED IN HIGH HUMIDITY STATES. MISSOURI, FLORIDA AND TEXAS HAVE CLASS ACTION SUITS IN ORDER TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARDS THAT SURPASS THE 8 YEAR MARK THE ONLY COVERED. REFUSED TO CALL IT A "RECALL ". THOUSANDS OF OWNERS WERE AND ARE STILL LEFT UNNOTIFIED OF THE REPLACEMENT, LETTERS NEVER SENT OUT. IF MY DASH LOOKS THIS BAD, AND EMITS THESE TOXIC FUMES IN THE HEAT THAT BURN MY EYES, HOW CAN THIS COMPANY NOT BE FORCED TO REPLACE MY AIRBAGS? I'D SAY THEY ARE INTERTWINED. WE ARE DISAPPOINTED AS OWNERS OF THIS HIGH DOLLAR VEHICLES AND THE COMPANY ISN'T MADE ACCOUNTABLE BY YOU, THE GOVERNING BOARD OF VEHICLE SAFETY FOR THE PEOPLE. I'M IN POLITICS, I DON'T WANT TO GET CANCER FROM TOXIC FUMES, OR MY FAMILY OR CHOICE OF DYING FROM METAL IN AIRBAGS. BOTH SERVED AS PROTECTION. GOING DOWN THE ROAD IN BRIGHT SUN, THESE BUBBLES AS I CALL THEM REFLECT SUN OFF THE WINDSHIELD AND CAUSE BLINDNESS. I SEE THIS CONNECTING SOON WITH AN ACCIDENT, BUT MICHIGAN ISN'T IN THE RECALL?? I'LL MAKE SURE TO LEAVE NOTE EARLY WITH DIRECTIONS, IF THERE'S ANY SURVIVORS. I'M SORRY, I'M FRUSTRATED WITH INFINITY FOR BEING ALLOWED TO GET AWAY WITH THIS [XXX]. I THOUGHT YOU FORCED RECALLS? PLEASE HELP IN MICHIGAN. I HOPE THE PICTURES GO THRU, IF NOT CALL AND I WILL SEND TO AN EMAIL ADDRESS. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

CAR: 2005 INFINITI FX45 FAILURE: AIRBAG SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT BLINKING OCCURS: CONSTANTLY, UNTIL CLEARED IN THE COMPUTER. ONCE IT'S CLEARED IT IS VARIABLE AS TO HOW LONG IT WILL BE BEFORE IT STARTS BLINKING AGAIN, USUALLY 1 - 7 DAYS. DONE TO CORRECT PROBLEM: TAKEN TO DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTICS. FIRST DIAGNOSED AS A "FRONT CRUSH ZONE SENSOR". THAT WAS REPLACED AND PAID FOR BY ME, BUT DIDN'T FIX IT. NEXT DIAGNOSED AS AN AIRBAG DIAGNOSTIC MODULE. INFINITI REPLACED THAT UNDER WARRANTY BUT IT DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM EITHER. NEXT DIAGNOSTIC WAS EITHER THE ENGINE MANAGEMENT WIRING HARNESS OR THE CABIN AIRBAG WIRING HARNESS. EACH JOB IS APPROXIMATELY $2200.00, INFINITI REFUSED TO PERFORM THE WORK UNDER WARRANTY, AND I REFUSED TO PAY FOR ONE WITHOUT KNOWING WHETHER IT WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. INFINITI HAS DISREGARDED THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND WASHED THEIR HANDS OF ME, TOLD ME TO COME PICK UP THE CAR, THEY ARE NO LONGER WILLING TO WORK ON IT. I ASKED THE INFINITI SERVICE TECHNICIAN IF THE AIRBAG SYSTEM WOULD WORK CORRECTLY IF THE LIGHT IS BLINKING AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WOULD NOT. *TR

EXCESSIVE HEAT IN THE DRIVER FOOT WELL. DEALERSHIP ACKNOWLEDGES IT IS 105 DEGREES IN THE FOOT WELL AFTER ONLY 45 MINUTES OF DRIVE TIME, BUT INDICATES IT IS THE PROXIMITY OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM THAT IS CREATING THE HEAT - AND THEREFORE NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO FIX. ACTUAL TEMPERATURE AFTER ONE PLUS HOUR OF DRIVE TIME IS UNBEARABLE, AND CAN ONLY BE SLIGHTLY LESSENED WITH USE OF AC (WHICH ALSO SEEMS FAULTY) ON HIGH. THEREFORE, DRIVING THIS VEHICLE FOR MORE THAN 45 MINUTES AT A TIME IS A MISERABLE EXPERIENCE - BUT ONE THE DEALERSHIP SUGGESTS IS THE SAME AS ALL OTHER FX45'S. *JB
