This Problem Across All Years
The contact owns a 2017 Infiniti QX30. The contact stated the vehicle was included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V419000 (Steering) for the lower steering shaft and was repaired under recall. After the recall repair, the steering wheel occasionally seized intermittently, the horn failed to operate, and the buttons on the steering wheel were inoperable. Additionally, the mileage, tire pressure, and other functions on the instrument panel were inoperable. The vehicle was returned to the dealer to be diagnosed, and it was determined that the steering column needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

Hello. My vin number is not showing unresolved recalls, but I believe it is based on my experience. I was parking my car, which involved turning my steering wheel all the way to the right, and heard a crunching, clicking sound. I did some teoubleshooting, and believe it is the clock spring giving out. What concerns me is 1 of the 4 recalls in particular. Infiniti recalled the 2017 and 2018 QX30 compact crossover SUV due to a potential for the driver's airbag to deploy unexpectedly. The recall was issued due to a grounding issue with the steering components that could cause an electrostatic charge to build up. If the airbag clock spring broke, the driver's side airbag could deploy accidentally, which could result in a crash or injury to the driver. When I called Sewell Infiniti in Dallas, TX, I was told they had no recalls showing for my 2017 QX30, and to look at it would cost $240. I am currently not in a place financially to be able to afford this, but am concerned for my safety. I bought this car used from Carmax, but have since taken it to Sewell Infiniti for service and repairs. Please advise the best course of action as I am truly scared to drive my car due to this potentially deadly situation.

While driving vehicle warning message appeared on cluster saying “ABS INOPERABLE” with ABS and traction control lights on. Minutes later all power steering is gone and vehicle is very difficult to steer. This not only put me in danger but also my passengers and others on the road as well. This has happened multiple times. Brought the vehicle to the infinity dealer to be told I needed 2 new batteries. Bought new batteries and is still happening. The owner manual says to rock steering wheel side to side while driving 12mph to reset. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. I have read multiple complaints on different forums for the same issue I am complaining about. Is Infinity waiting for someone to be injured or killed due to this malfunction before they issue a recall and fix this problem? In addition to this electronic issue I have also had other lights appear for “reverse not possible”, maintenance required, as well as others I can not remember at this time. Clearly there is an electrical issue with these vehicles.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? I am not entirely sure what specific part of my car is causing this issue, but from the research I have done regarding other people with my make/model of the car, it seems like it is something with the electrical system/auxiliary battery. Yes, it can be examined upon request at this time. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? My car has an ecostart button that is automatically on when you get into the car, and there is no way to turn it off unless you remember to press the button to turn it off manually. My car (and many other people's cars with this make/model) have described the exact same issue when driving. The ecostart is malfunctioning. The engine will shut off at a red light, and when I go to lift my foot off the brake to go again, the car will make a loud popping noise and shut off entirely. A message pops up that says "Do not shift gears. See dealership." I have to physically turn the car on and off again to move, and I only figured this out after having been stuck at a red light in the middle of traffic. It is not safe that this car will completely lose functionality in the middle of traffic. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? I took it to a mechanic that confirmed the check engine light was on for an ecostart code, but they could not figure out why the code was being pulled. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? I only received a message when the car started failing. There were times where the car would make the popping noise, the radio would turn off, and then it would slowly come back on without the entire car shutting off.

NAVIGATION SCREEN GOES BLACK SOMETIMES WHEN VEHICLE IS PUT IN REVERSE. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE OF THE LIMITED VISIBILITY OF THE QX30, ESPECIALLY WHEN BACKING UP.
