This Problem Across All Years
WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY LAST NIGHT DURING RUSH HOUR MY CAR ENGINE JUST STOPPED. . THE DASH LIGHTS CAME ON,( SLIP, TCS,BRAKE,CHECK ENGINE SOON, OIL AND BATTERY). I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SHOULDER SAFELY. VERY SCARED BUT SAFE I WAS IN THE MIDDLE LANE. TURNED OFF IGNITION WAITED A FEW AND RESTARTED. TOOK SURFACE STREET THE REST OF THE WAY. 3-4 HOURS IT STARTED FINE, HOWEVER WHILE DRIVING BACK 25 MILES ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET IT HAPPENED AGAIN. GOT IT STARED AND SOME LIGHTS REMAINED ON (SLIP,TCS,CHECK ENGINE SOON). HAVEN'T STARTED IT TODAY. GOING TO MECHANIC ON MONDAY. ONLY HAVE 65000 MILES ON THE CAR. I PHONED INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND WAS TOLD MY VIN WASN'T AND IS NOT PART OF ANY RECALL AND IF IT TURNS OUT TO BE THE SAME ISSUE I STILL HAVE TO PAY FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIRS.

THE CAR LOSES POWER AFTER A WHILE AND WILL JUST STOP AS IF IT RAN OUT OF GAS. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, OTHERWISE THE CAR IS OK. THE MECHANIC SUSPECTS IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE CRANK POSITION OR CIRCUIT BOARD. THERE WAS RECALLS ON THIS MODEL IN 11/2003 AND 12/2003 THAT DESCRIBE EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS TO MY VEHICLE. THIS SLOWING DOWN TO STOPPING HAPPENED ON A MAJOR EXPRESSWAY AND I HAD TO BE TOWED. IT ALSO HAPPENED AGAIN IN MY STREET AND DRIVEWAY HAVING TO BE TOWED AGAIN.

CAR STALLED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT A SPEED OF 30 MPH. DIAGNOSTIC TEST REVEALED CODES FOR CAMSHAFT/CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSORS. VEHICLE NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL. MECHANIC VERIFIED THAT THE SENSORS FAILING WERE THE PROBLEM. CAR TOWED TO HOME. SENSORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND FAILED AGAIN!

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET, THE VEHICLE SHUT COMPLETELY OFF. I COULD NOT STEER OR ANYTHING. IT WAS NOT THE BATTERY, ALTERNATOR. IT JUST STOP RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET; WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS. I CALLED THE USED CAR DEALER WHOM HAD JUST SOLD ME THE VEHICLE LESS THAN 6 MONTH WHOM HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED. THEY INDICATED THEY FIXED ONE OF THE SENSOR & THERE WAS ELECTRICAL ISSUES. IT DROVE FOR ABOUT A YEAR, NOW IT IS CONTINUOUSLY DOING THE SAME THING, SHUTTING DOWN WHILE DRIVING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON & SLIP/ TCS. THE VEHICLE HAVE ENDANGERED MY LIFE ABOUT 5 DIFFERENT TIME FOR THE SAME REASON WITH MY GRANDCHILDREN IN THE CAR. I KNOW SEVERAL PEOPLE THAT ARE GOING THRU THE SAME THING. THE DEALER DID NOT NOTIFY ME OF THE RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. I HAD TO FIND IT OUT WHEN TRYING TO TRADE MY VEHICLE.

I BOUGHT A USED 2003 INFINITI I-35 ABOUT A YEAR AGO AND IT WAS RUNNING FINE UNTIL ABOUT A WEEK AGO WHEN THE ENGINE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE I WAS DRIVING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION. IT REALLY UPSET MY GIRLFRIEND BECAUSE WE COULD HAVE BEEN 'T-BONED' ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE AND SHE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. WHEN I GOT THE CAR STARTED IT RAN FINE, LIKE NORMAL, EXCEPT THE 'SLIP', 'TCS', AND 'CHECK ENGINE SOON' LIGHTS ALL REMAINED ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE THEN AND NOW I'M CONCERNED. I THINK THAT IT MIGHT HAPPEN AT ANOTHER INTERSECTION AND WE WON'T BE SO LUCKY NEXT TIME. THE CAR HAS RESTARTED EVERYTIME, WITH THE SLIP, TCS AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS STAYING ON AS BEFORE, EXCEPT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALWAYS STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. FROM THE COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ ON-LINE BY SEVERAL OTHERS THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, IT SEEMS CLEAR TO ME THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN CONTINUALLY OCCURRING IN ALL MODELS OF THE INFINITY LINE YEAR AFTER YEAR, AND THE NISSAN MOTOR COMPANY DOESN'T WANT TO ADMIT THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM THAT THEY KNEW ABOUT AND COULD HAVE CORRECTED BUT DIDN'T, SO THEY WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IN ANY WRONGFUL DEATH LAWSUITS. *TR

I'LL START THE CAR, THEN START TO DRIVE; MAYBE AFTER 15-20 MINUTES, THE CAR WILL STUTTER AND ACT LIKE ITS ABOUT TO CUT OFF, LIKE A JERKING MOTION. FROM THERE THE TCS, ABS, SLIP, AND ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON; IT'LL RESUME TO DRIVE, AFTER THOSE LIGHTS COME ON, I'LL BE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR JUST SHUTS OFF; I THEN HAVE TO PUT IT IN NEUTRAL (WHILE AT HIGH SPEEDS) THEN ATTEMPT TO START THE CAR AGAIN. AFTER ABOUT TWO TIMES WHILE IN NEUTRAL IT'LL START AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY, VERY, DANGEROUS SITUATION; I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN THAT GO EVERYWHERE WITH ME! I CONTACTED INFINITE CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND GAVE THEM THE RECALL NUMBER AND THE CAMPAIGN NUMBER AND THEY STATED THAT MY CAR DIDN'T FALL INTO THE RANGE OF VIN NUMBERS UP FOR RECALL, WHEN EVERYONE ELSE IS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME EXACT THING; THE ONLY THING THAT THE LADY SAID IS THAT MY CAR IS UP FOR RECALL IS THE PASSENGER AIRBAG, HELP PLEASE! *TR

THE CHECK ENGINE SOON LIGHT, SLIP WARNING, AND THE ESC LIGHT ALL CAME ON AND THE CAR SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I STEERED THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR. IT RESTARTED, BUT THE START WAS TEPID. DROVE THE CAR TO WORK. MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE INFINITI DEALER. DROVE TO DEALER AND THE EVENT HAPPENED AGAIN BUT DID NOT STALL. SERVICE DEPARTMENT STATED IT WAS A BAD CAM SENSOR THAT NEEDED REPLACED. RESEARCHED THIS AND FOUND THAT NISSAN/INFINITI HAD RECALLED I35'S FOR BAD CRANK SHAFT / CAM SENSORS UNDER RECALL R3021/03V-455. THOUGH CLOSE, MY VIN DID NOT FALL INTO THE COVERED POPULATION, EVEN THOUGH THE DESCRIBED ISSUE IN THE RECALL IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO ME. THE DEALER IS NOT ABLE TO REPLACE THE SENSOR UNDER THE RECALL. WHY IS THIS? HOW IS IT DETERMINED WHAT VIN'S FALL INTO THE POPULATION? IT IS CLEAR THAT I AND OTHERS ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS WAS NOTED IN THE RECALL. *TR

RECALL - NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 03V455000. ENGINE STOPPED WHILE DRIVING IN NORMAL CONDITIONS WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED A CATASTROPHIC ACCIDENT. LOSS COMPLETE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND THE "SLIP" LIGHT, "TCS OFF" AND "CHECK ENGINE LIGHT" ALL CAME ON WITH COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING WITH NO ABILITY TO REGAIN CONTROL. I TOOK THE CAR TO A MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THERE IS A CODE "P0340" - CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR FAILURE. INFINITI CORPORATE HAD ISSUED A RECALL # R3021 FOR THIS MAJOR ISSUE. WHEN I CALLED INFINITI CORPORATE TO TAKE PART OF THIS SERIOUS RECALL AND SERVICE MY VEHICLE, THEY DID NOT WANT TO HELP CLAIMING THAT THEY DID NOT MARK MY VIN # FOR THE RECALL. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE WITH MOST INFINITI I35'S AND MANY NISSANS AS WELL. INFINITI SEEMS TO NOT CARE AND HAS PUT MY LIFE IN COMPLETE JEOPARDY. *TR
