reporting an unintended driverâs frontal airbag deployment that occurred without a collision and resulted in occupant injuries. My son was leaving EÅS Fitness in [XXX]. He entered my 2010 Infiniti FX35 and sat in the driverâs seat. The vehicle was parked and stationary. There was no collision, impact, curb strike, sudden stop, or other crash event immediately preceding the deployment. My son turned the vehicle on.

I am the owner of a 2010 FX35 that started having problems in 2023 with just cutting off in the middle of driving. I took the vehicle to the dealership last year in which they told me the car required an update and the reprogrammed ECM and bumped up RPMS. I started having the issue again and was almost in an accident as the car cut off in traffic as was driving and lost the ability to steer the car. I took the car back to the dealership complaining of the same issue. I was told that Infiniti was aware of the problem and had issued a TSB but not a recall to repair this problem. This is a safety hazard that should be investigated and a recall should be issued to repair ASAP.
- Electrical system
My vehicle gas fuel door opens electronically/automatically. Once motor is turned off, then you can push the door open and proceed to unscrew the gas cap and fuel the car. I recently found out that this simple process malfunctioned and I had to pay Infiniti to unlock the door, so I can fuel my car! To my "Disappointment" I was advised by Infiniti, that a little, tiny part {actuators that power mechanical devices (windows, sunroofs, seats, etc.)} is what's needed to resolve this issue, only it will cost me, out of pocket approximately $800, because the extended warranty, which I had at the time {car shield} does not cover it; even though, that may present a safety hazard for me should…

The contact owns a 2010 Infiniti FX35. The contact stated while driving 40 MPH, an abnormal banging sound was coming from the vehicle without warning. The contact was unaware of what caused the banging noise. The contact slammed on her brakes and the vehicle independently veered to the left. The contact notified the independent mechanic who inspected the vehicle and discovered that the left torque arm had corroded and detached from the subframe. The contact then took the vehicle to a dealer where she was given an estimate for the repair. The manufacturer was also notified of the failure and a case was filed. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 98,000. The…

IN THE SEARCH OF A NEW DASHBOARD FOR MY 2010 INFINITI FX35 DUE TO A SPIDER WEB CRACKING MANUFACTURING ISSUE, I CAME ACROSS ANOTHER 2010 FX35 WITH THE EXACT SAME CRACK IN IDENTICAL SPOTS. I THOUGHT THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE TO BE A COINCIDENCE. THE MAIN ISSUES ARE DASHBOARD CRACKING. DUE TO THE MANUFACTURER DEFECT, THIS LOWERS THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE TREMENDOUSLY. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED COMPARISON PICS BELOW.
