2013 Infiniti JX35 complaints

PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR IS EXTREMELY SENSITIVE TO FRONT PASSENGER POSITION. IF INDIVIDUAL DOES NOT SIT ABSOLUTELY PERFECT, THE INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON INDICATING THE AIRBAG IS OFF. I AM BECOMING VERY CONCERNED. *TR

I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH ON ROUTE 73 IN MARLTON NJ. THE BRAKES LOCKED (WITHOUT ME BRAKING) THIS SEEMED TO BE THE AUTO EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM. THERE WAS NOTHING IN FRONT OF ME- NO CAR, PERSON OR OBSTACLE. THE CAR BEHIND ME NEEDED TO SWERVE TO AVOID ME. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. THIS HAPPENED ONE OTHER TIME AND IT DIDN'T OCCUR TO ME THE SERIOUSNESS THE FIRST TIME BECAUSE I WAS REVERSING SLOWLY. AGAIN THERE WAS NO OBSTACLE AND NO REASON FOR THE CAR TO SUDDENLY BRAKE. THE DCA WAS NOT IN USE AT THE TIME EITHER. THIS IS THE SECOND SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE I HAVE HAD WITH THIS VEHICLE. FIRST WAS THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG - WOULD NOT ENGAGE WHILE AN ADULT PASSENGER WAS SEATED. THIS EVENTUALLY GOT CORRECTED AFTER 4 VISITS TO THE DEALER. *TR

AIR BAG SENSOR TURNS OFF INTERMITTENTLY. IT WILL HAPPEN IN THE MIDDLE OF A DRIVE. TOOK CAR TO DEALER TO HAVE IT SERVICED. THEY TOLD ME THE SENSOR WAS RESET AND IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN THEY WOULD REPLACE IT. WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN ABOUT A MONTH LATER I GOT A DIFFERENT STORY. I TURNED IT IN TO THE DEALER AND LATER IN THE SAME DAY I HEARD THAT NISSAN HAD RECALLED THE AIR BAG SENSOR ON 5 MODELS, INCLUDING THE JX35. WHEN I PICKED IT UP, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT GAVE ME THE SAME STORY, THEY RECALIBRATED THE SENSOR AND TO BRING IT BACK IF THERE WERE MORE PROBLEMS AND IT WOULD BE REPLACED. *TR

OUR 2013 INFINITI JX AWD HAS EXHIBITED REPEATED LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. THE FIRST LOSS OF POWER STEERING OCCURRED ON ABOUT AUGUST 26, 2012. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE, BUT THE PROBLEM APPARENTLY COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. ON OR ABOUT SEPTEMBER 3, 2012, THE VEHICLE AGAIN EXHIBITED A LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE ON ABOUT SEPTEMBER 4, 2012, AND WAS EXAMINED BY AN INFINITI FIELD SERVICE TECHNICIAN. FOLLOWING THIS SERVICE, WE WERE INFORMED THAT THE PROBLEM HAD BEEN FIXED. ON ABOUT FEBRUARY 13, 2013, THE VEHICLE AGAIN EXHIBITED A LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE. *TR

HAVE NOTICED THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF WARNING LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY WITH AN ADULT PASSENGER SEATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH SEVERAL OF THE INFINITI JX35 MODELS. THIS IS A SERIOUS CONCERN AS THE AIR BAG IN NOT ARMED, PROVIDING NO PROTECTION TO THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER. I PLAN TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP ON MONDAY. SO FAR I HAVE NOT HAD A RECALL NOTICE FROM INFINITI ON THIS ISSUE. *TR

THE PASSENGER-SIDE AIRBAG DOES NOT ALWAYS ACTIVATE WHEN THERE IS AN ADULT PASSENGER IN THAT SEAT. THE INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON ABOUT 50-60% OF THE TIME (INDICATING THAT THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION) WHICH PUTS THAT PASSENGER AT A HEIGHTENED RISK FOR SERIOUS INJURY, OR DEATH. *TR

MY JX35 PASSENGER AIRBAG DEACTIVATION LIGHT TURNS ON RANDOMLY. I TOOK MY AUTOMOBILE TO THE DEALER AT LEAST FOUR TIMES AND THEY COULDN'T REPRODUCE IT. I RECORDED SEVERAL VIDEOS OF THIS ISSUE WHERE MY WIFE OR EVEN MYSELF IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND THE DEACTIVATION AIR BAG LIGHT TURNS ON WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. A BIG SAFETY PROBLEM. ALSO EXPERIENCING A PROBLEM WITH THE CITY MPG, I OBTAINING AN AVERAGE OF 10MPG. *TR

I'M EXPERIENCING A PROBLEM WITH THE CITY MPG PERFORMANCE. I OBTAINING AN AVERAGE OF 10MPG DRIVING IN THE CITY ONLY. I TESTED ON THE HIGHWAY AND OBTAINED 20.5 MPG. AVERAGE WILL DEPEND ON THE CITY VS HIGHWAY MILES DRIVEN. *TR

AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE AND AFTER THE STEERING WHEEL ASSUMES ITS DRIVE POSITION, THE STEERING WHEEL WILL HAVE A MOMENT OF FREE PLAY WHERE YOU CAN FEEL THE STEERING WHEEL JUMP AND FINALLY CATCH. I HAVE MENTIONED THIS SEVERAL TIMES TO THE INFINITI DEALER SERVICE DEPT AND THEIR RESPONSE IS THAT ALL JX35'S DO THIS. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY CAR OR INFINITI (I30 OR M35) EXHIBIT THIS LACK OF STEERING CONTROL. I HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED THIS WHILE DRIVING, ONLY ON INITIAL START-UP. *TR

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS "OFF" MOST OF THE TIME THAT I HAVE A PASSENGER IN THE CAR. WHEN I TALKED TO THE DEALER AND INFINITY CONSUMER AFFAIRS, I WAS TOLD THAT THE CAR MEETS INDUSTRY STANDARDS AND THE AIRBAG SHOULD BE OFF WHEN A PASSENGER WEIGHS LESS THAN 120 POUNDS IN THE SEAT. IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT, THE PASSENGER WOULD NOT HAVE A FRONT AIRBAG WHICH SEVERELY LESSENS THE SAFETY OF THE CAR. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY CAN DO. HAVING OWNED A MERCEDES AND A VOLVO IN THE PAST, I KNOW THAT THIS IS NOT COMMON IN ALL LUXURY VEHICLES. *TR

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT TURNS ON WHEN MY WIFE SITS IN THE SEAT. SHE WEIGHS 100 POUNDS AND THE AIRBAG SHOULD NOT BE TURNED OFF. THIS OCCURS ABOUT 85% OF THE TIME WHICH IS UNACCEPTABLE. CLEARLY THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE DEALERSHIP AND INFINITI HAVE NOT OFFERED AN EXPLANATION OR RESOLUTION AFTER REPEATED INQUIRIES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 INFINITI JX35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHILE THE PASSENGER SEAT WAS OCCUPIED BUT DID NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN THE SEAT WAS OCCUPIED BY A LIGHTER PASSENGER. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE OTHER THAN A FORMAL COMPLAINT. THE CONTACT WAS ALSO ADVISED THAT THE SEAT BELTS WOULD PROTECT HER. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 2,000. THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER REPLACED THE AIR BAG CONTROL UNTIL, THAT THEY CLAIMED WOULD STOP THE AIR BAG LIGHT FROM ILLUMINATING. THE CONSUMER STATED THE PROBLEM WAS ONLY REMEDIED FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. ALSO, THE ABS LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER REPLACED A FAULTY ABS SENSOR.

WHILE DRIVING MY INFINITI JX35 I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT, INDICATING THAT THE AIR BAG IS TURNED OFF, WILL COME ON WHILE MY WIFE IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGERS SEAT. SHE WEIGHS ABOUT 150LBS SO THE AIR BAG SHOULD ALWAYS BE ON WITH HER SITTING IN THE SEAT. *TR

SAME SERIOUS PROBLEM AS NOTED BY MANY OTHER CONSUMERS ON HTTP://WWW.ARFC.ORG/COMPLAINTS/2013/INFINITI/JX35/. PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT REMAINS LIT INDICATING AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN ACCIDENT WHILE ADULT PASSENGER IS SEATED. THIS ISSUE WAS NOTED ON THE DAY OF DELIVERY (1/18/2013). CAR WAS TAKEN BACK FOR A FIX. REPORT FROM DEALERSHIP INDICATED IT WAS PROBABLY DUE TO LOCATION OF THE WEIGHT OF THE PASSENGER WHILE SEATED AS THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE CONDITION. WHEN WE WENT BACK TO PICK UP THE CAR, WE NOTICED THAT THE ISSUE HAS NOT GONE AWAY AS THE LIGHT STILL STAYS ON (I.E. PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG IS OFF) EVEN THOUGH A 124LB ADULT IS SEATED. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE ANY FATALITIES HAPPEN. MOST IMPORTANTLY, WE HAD MY WIFE SIT IN ANOTHER JX35 ON THE LOT AND PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT STILL STAYED ON. THIS IS CLEARLY A SYSTEMIC DESIGN ISSUE AND NOT ISOLATED TO ONE CAR. CAR IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE TRYING TO CONFIRM FROM INFINITI IF THERE IS SOME WAY TO LOWER THE WEIGHT THRESHOLD SO LIGHTER PEOPLE WILL BE DETECTED AND AIRBAG WILL BE ACTIVATED. *TR

PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT REMAINS LIT INDICATING AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN ACCIDENT WHILE ADULT PASSENGER IS SEATED. THIS ISSUE HAS CONTINUED AFTER 4 REPAIRS FROM INFINITI IN MAPLE SHADE NJ. CAR NOW HAS 9000 +/-MILES. AND IS BACK IN FOR SAME REPAIR. REPLACED ENTIRE SEAT ASSEMBLY, COMPUTER MODULES, SENSORS, NOW ONTO ANOTHER COMPUTER MODULE. ALL OF THIS WHILE BEING TOLD:" WE CAN'T DUPLICATE IT PLEASE COME IN AND DRIVE WITH OUR TECHNICIAN" "120 POUND FEMALE MAY JUST BE ON THE CUSP OF NOT AIRBAG DEPLOYING" AND THE BEST "AIR BAGS ARE REALLY ONLY A SUPPLEMENTAL SYSTEM FOR SAFETY, YOUR SEATBELT WILL PROTECT YOU IN THE CASE OF AN ACCIDENT". ALL OF THIS CAME FROM SERVICE MANAGERS AT THIS LOCATION. MY CAR IS NOW BACK IN AND BEEN THERE FOR 9 DAYS. *TR

FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING WITH ADULT PASSENGER SITTING WEIGHING MORE THAN 100 LB IN PROPER POSITION AND LIGHT STAYS ON FOR UPTO 30MINS.THIS IS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE PUTTING SAFETY OF PASSENGERS AT RISK. INFINITI FAILED TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AFTER REPEATED COMPLAINTS AND DIAGNOSIS. *TR

THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN EXHIBITING INTERMITTENT PASSENGER AIRBAG ON/OFF WHEN A PASSENGER IS SEATED ON THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF LIGHT COMES ON 40% OF THE TIME WHEN A PASSENGER WEIGHING 120 LBS IS SEATED ON THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WHEN A COLLISION HAPPENS IF 50% OF THE TIME AN AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY. DEALERSHIP CONFIRMS THIS IS NORMAL OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE WHEN SOMEONE WEIGHING 120 - 130LBS IS SEATED IN PASSENGER SEAT. I HAVE VIDEO PROOF OF PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF LIGHT TURNING ON ALL OF THE SUDDEN WHEN DRIVING AT A HIGHWAY AT 80 MPH. *TR

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF RANDOMLY WITH THE ADULT PASSENGER SITTING ON THE SEAT. IN ANOTHER WORD, THE AIRBAG IS DISABLED OR ENABLED. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, AND THE MANUFACTURE INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIR TEAM CANNOT PROVIDE EXPLANATION AND A SOLUTION TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 INFINITI JX35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHILE THE PASSENGER'S SEAT WAS OCCUPIED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WARNING LIGHT WAS AN INDICATION THE PASSENGER'S SIDE AIR BAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND ALTHOUGH THE DEALER COULD NOT GENERATE A FAILURE CODE, THE DEALER STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT SHOULD NOT HAVE ILLUMINATED WHEN THE PASSENGER'S SEAT WAS OCCUPIED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS ADVISED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,696. UPDATED 02/26/13*LJ UPDATED 03/1/2013 *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 INFINITI JX35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND A ZERO POINT RESET WAS PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE. AFTER THE REPAIR WAS PERFORMED THE FAILURE RECURRED IMMEDIATELY. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALER. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING AS DESIGNED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT WITHIN TEN DAYS THEY WOULD LET HIM KNOW WHETHER A FULL REFUND WOULD BE ISSUED FOR THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 2,800.

THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATES (I.E., THE WARNING LIGHT INDICATES THAT THE AIRBAG IS OFF) EVEN THOUGH THERE IS AN ADULT PASSENGER SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND THAT ADULT PASSENGER IS PROPERLY SEATED AND WEARING A SEAT BELT. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN REPORTED BY MANY INFINITI JX OWNERS ONLINE AT WWW.INIFINTIJXFORUM.COM THE DANGER IS THAT WE DO NOT KNOW IF IT IS THE WARNING LIGHT THAT IS FAULTY (I.E., AIRBAG WILL ACTUALLY DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT) OR IF THE AIRBAG SENSOR IS FAULTY (I.E., AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT). *TR

MY 8 YEAR OLD SON WAS SEATING IN THE BACK SEAT AND HAD BENT OVER TO PICK SOMETHING UP FROM THE FLOOR, WHILE BUCKLED WITH THE SEAT BELT. WHEN HE SAT BACK UP AGAIN, THE SEAT BELT WAS IN LOCK-DOWN MODE AND WOULD NOT BUDGE ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. THE MORE HE MOVED THE TIGHTER IT GOT TO THE POINT WHERE HE COULD BARELY BREATH. EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS PARKED AND THE ENGINE TURNED OFF, THE SEAT BELT WOULD NOT BUDGE AND THE ONLY WAY TO GET HIM OUT WAS TO CUT THE SEAT BELT. THERE WAS NO OTHER WAY TO EITHER RELEASE THE BUCKLE OR THE PRESSURE FROM THE SEAT BELT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 INFINITI JX35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN PLACING THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE DURING THE NIGHT HOURS THE DRIVER WAS UNABLE TO SEE WHAT WAS BEHIND THEM. THE DRIVER ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE BACK UP CAMERA DOES NOT HELP EITHER BECAUSE THE REVERSE LIGHTS ARE NOT ILLUMINATED BRIGHT ENOUGH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE SINCE THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO ALTER THE DESIGN OF THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 1,400.....UPDATED 12/20/12 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED INFINTI WILL NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES AND IF LIGHTS WERE ADDED BY THE CONSUMER THE WARRANTY WOULD VOIDED. UPDATED 12/28/2012 *JS

EXITING FREEWAY. HALF WAY DOWN THE OFF RAMP, APPLIED BRAKES -- NO BRAKES, COMPLETE FAILURE. APPLIED EMERGENCY BRAKES AND PUMPED BRAKE PEDDLE VIGOROUSLY. FINALLY CAR CAME TO A HALT AND I WAS ABLE TO AVOID CROSS TRAFFIC AND AVOIDED INJURY AND DAMAGE. *TR

I AM A 140 LB WOMAN. WHEN I SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, EVEN PROPERLY, THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS INTERMITTENTLY TURNED ON INDICATING THERE'S NO PASSENGER OR THE PASSENGER IS OUT OF POSITION. IT OFTEN (IN THE FIRST MONTH) HAPPENED AT THE BEGINNING OF A DRIVE, AND THE RECURRED AT TIMES, PERHAPS LOWER SPEEDS. RECENTLY, (9/23) IT HAPPENED AT A HIGHER SPEED, AND WELL INTO OUR DRIVE. IT STAYED LIT FOR A WHILE, I TRIED TO ADJUST MY POSITION TO SEE IF IT WAS A SENSOR ERROR. ULTIMATELY, IT WENT OFF, BUT IT REMAINS SKETCHY, ALTHOUGH HAPPENS AT LESS FREQUENCY THAN IT DID ON INITIALLY PURCHASING THE CAR. *TR

RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INTERMITTENTLY FAILS TO TURN "ON" WHEN AN ADULT PASSENGER IS SEATED FULLY WITHIN THE SEAT. ON SOME OCCASIONS THE AIRBAG WILL TURN "ON" (INDICATOR LIGHT IS OFF) WHEN AN ADULT PASSENGER IS PRESENT AND THEN WILL SWITCH TO "OFF" (INDICATOR LIGHT TURNS ON). ATTEMPTS TO REPOSITION AND REDISTRIBUTE WEIGHT TO GET THE SYSTEM TO TURN BACK ON HAVE BEEN MADE BUT UNSUCCESSFUL. THEN, MINUTES LATER THE SYSTEM SIMPLY SWITCHES BACK TO "ON". THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER DETECTION SYSTEM IN THE SEAT AND CAN RESULT IN THE AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING IN A FRONTAL COLLISION. *TR

I LEASED THIS VEHICLE FOR MY WIFE ON 5/26/2012. WHILE TRAVELING, THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON THE DASHBOARD. WE SCHEDULED OUR INITIAL SERVICE FOR AN OIL CHANGE ON SATURDAY 8/18 AT 8:30AM AT LEGACY INFINITI. WHEN I FIRST ARRIVED, I WAS TOLD THAT I HAD TO WAIT OR DROP OFF THE VEHICLE. DURING THE VISIT, I WAS ADVISED BY THE SERVICE MANAGER, [XXX], THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE VEHICLE. I WAS ADVISED BY THE SERVICE CONSULTANT, [XXX] THAT THE RECALL WAS DUE TO A DISTANCE SENSOR PERTAINING TO THE CRUISE CONTROL AS WELL AS THE FUEL TANK TUBE WHICH CAUSED THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT TO COME ON. AFTER A TWO HOUR VISIT, THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO ME AND THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT WAS NO LONGER ON. WHEN RETURNING FROM CHURCH WITH MY FAMILY ON SUNDAY 8/19, THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON ONCE AGAIN. I CALLED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND SPOKE TO[XXX] ON MONDAY 8/20 TO ADVISE HIM OF MY CONCERN AROUND THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE. MY WIFE DRIVES THE VEHICLE TO WORK AND TRANSPORTS MY CHILDREN AND I AM VERY CONCERNED WITH THIS MALFUNCTION. I HAD TO BRING IN THE VEHICLE ON WEDNESDAY 8/22. MY VEHICLE WAS AGAIN TAKEN IN FOR SERVICE AND I WAS ISSUED A LOANER CAR BY THE SERVICE CONSULTANT, [XXX]. I WAS CONTACTED IN THE AFTERNOON AND TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE WAS FIXED AND I COULD PICK IT UP THAT AFTERNOON. MY WIFE DROVE THE VEHICLE TO WORK ON 8/23 AND WHEN DRIVING TOGETHER IN THE EVENING, THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON ONCE AGAIN. WE SENT A COMPLAINT TO INFINITI CUST

FUEL GAUGE CLAIMED 45 MILES UNTIL EMPTY; HOWEVER SOMETIME WITHIN THE NEXT MILE, FUEL GAUGE IMMEDIATELY WENT TO "-" AND VEHICLE STALLED AND WAS OUT OF GAS ON HIGHWAY. FORTUNATELY WAS NEAR OFF RAMP. WALKED TO GAS STATION WAS ABLE TO REFILL TANK, VEHICLE STARTED IMMEDIATELY. FUEL GAUGE FAULTY. *TR

I BOUGHT THE JX 35 ON APRIL 17, 2012 LOOKING TO DOWNSIZE AND BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY FEATURES. ABOUT A MONTH INTO OWNING THE CAR, AS I WAS DRIVING THE IBA (INTELLECT BRAKE ASSIST) SUDDENLY STOPPED MY CAR TO A COMPLETE STOP ON A BRIDGE. THERE WERE NO CARS IN FRONT OF ME, AND LUCKILY THE CAR BEHIND ME WASN'T DRIVING TOO CLOSE TO ME OR I WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT. MY SEATBELT TIGHTENED AS WELL. MY 2 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS WITH ME. I IMMEDIATELY DROVE IT OVER TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TURNED THE IBA OFF. 2 WEEKS LATER I WAS DRIVING WITH MY MOM AND DAUGHTER AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN ON THE SAME BRIDGE!!! WE WERE STUNNED AS THE CAR STOPPED AND OUR SEATBELTS TIGHTENED. AGAIN, NO ACCIDENT, AS NO ONE WAS DRIVING TOO CLOSE BEHIND ME. ONCE AGAIN I DROVE RIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY KEPT MY CAR. IT WAS THERE FOR 28 DAYS WHILE TECHNICIANS FROM BOSCH AND INFINITI CAME TO TEST MY CAR OVER SEVERAL TRIPS BACK AND FORTH TESTING NEW SOFTWARE. IT DID HAPPEN TO THE TECHNICIANS WITH MY CAR AS WELL ON HE SAME ROAD ALONG WITH ANOTHER JX FROM THE LOT WITH IBA. NISSAN INFINITI CORPORATION DID NOTHING TO HELP ME GET OUT OF THIS CAR, THEIR CONSUMER AFFAIRS DEPT IS HORRIBLE. MY DEALERSHIP DID HELP, AND GOT ME OUT OF THE CAR WITH MY FULL MONEY BACK. EVEN WITH MY MONEY BACK, I AM UNSETTLED KNOWING THIS CAN HAPPEN TO SOMEONE ELSE. *TR

I LEASED MY JX IN JUNE 2012. THIS IS THE VEHICLE'S 1ST MODEL YR (RELEASED IN APRIL 2012). I LEASED IT BECAUSE I HAVE TWO YOUNG CHILDREN, I AM 24 WEEKS PREGNANT, AND THE JX BOASTS MANY MANY SAFETY FEATURES. ONE OF THESE SAFETY FEATURES IS THE INTELLECT BRAKE ASSIST(IBA). IF THE VEHICLE SENSES YOU ARE ABOUT TO HAVE A FRONT END CRASH, IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY BRING THE VEHICLE TO AN IMMEDIATE STOP. AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, I READ ONLINE THAT THERE IS A GLITCH WITH THE IBA - THAT IT WAS ENGAGING THE BRAKES EVEN WHEN NO ACCIDENT WAS EMINENT. I DROVE STRAIGHT TO THE DEALER ASKING TO DISCONNECT/TURN OFF THE OPTIONS THAT ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO STOP AUTOMATICALLY WHEN IN FORWARD MOTION. THEY SAID THAT WHAT I READ ONLINE WAS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT (IRONICALLY IN THE AREA IN WHICH I RESIDE) AND THAT I SHOULDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS. I EXPLAINED THAT I WANTED IT TURNED OFF ANYWAY - I DIDN'T FEEL SAFE KNOWING THAT IT COULD HAPPEN TO ME. WHEN THE VEHICLE STOPS, IT JERKS THE SEATBELT TIGHT, AND I DON'T WANT THAT RISK TO MY UNBORN CHILD UNLESS AN ACCIDENT IS ACTUALLY ABOUT TO OCCUR. THEY TOOK THE CAR IN AND WHEN IT EMERGED THEY ASSURED ME THAT ALL OF THE FRONTAL BRAKE ASSISTANCE WAS TURNED OFF. 12 DAYS LATER I WAS DRIVING W/MY 7 YR OLD, AND WHEN I DROVE OVER A BRIDGE, THE VEHICLE CAME TO A DEAD STOP, AND ALL OF OUR SEATBELTS LOCKED UP. FORTUNATELY, THE DRIVER IN THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME WAS ABLE TO STOP IN ENOUGH TIME THAT HE DIDN'T HIT ME. I CALLED THE DEALER WHERE I LEASED THE VEHICLE, AND THE SER

THERE IS AN INTERMITENT PROBLEM WITH THE FUNCTIONING OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. APPROXIMATELY 50% OF THE TIME THAT THERE IS A PASSENGER SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS TURNED OFF. THESE ARE ADULT PASSENGERS WITH WEIGHTS FROM 125LBS TO 185LBS AND HEIGHTS 5FT 7IN TO 6FT 6IN. INFINITI ENGINEERS HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THE PASSENGER AIRBAGS SHOULD BE SWITCHED ON ALL THE TIME WITH ADULT PASSENGERS THEREFORE THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. AS ALL THE PASSENGER SEAT SENSORS HAVE BEEN CHECKED AND ARE OK THIS RAISES SERIOUS QUESTIONS ABOUT THE INTEGRITY OF THE COMPUTER SYSTEMS CONTROLLING THE CAR. *TT
