2009 Infiniti EX35 Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 INFINITI EX35. THE CONTACT STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND PLACED THE GEAR IN REVERSE, BUT THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE FORWARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO A LOCAL DEALER. THE DEALER CONFIRMED THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 64,000.

I HAD A TIRE BLOWOUT ON THE LEFT REAR OF THE VEHICLE. AFTER MOUNTING THE SPARE I INSPECTED THE BLOWN OUT TIRE AND COULD NOT FIND A CAUSE FOR THE TIRE TO FAIL. UPON PUTTING THE DAMAGED WHEEL/TIRE IN THE SPARE TIRE WELL OF THE CAR I NOTICED THAT THE WHEEL VALVE STEM WAS MISSING AND HEARD SOMETHING ROLLING AROUND INSIDE THE TIRE. IT WAS THE (TPMS) VALVE STEM. I THEN INSPECTED THE OTHER THREE WHEELS/TIRES AND FOUND THAT THE VALVE STEMS ARE HELD IN PLACE BY A LOCKING NUT/SLEEVE THAT WAS FAILING DO TO CORROSION. THE NUT/SLEEVE IS ALUMINUM AND THE CORROSION IS CAUSING THEM TO CRACK LENGTHWISE AND DETACH FROM THE VALVE STEM. THREE OF THE FOUR ARE CRACKED AND ONE IS ONLY HELD IN BY HALF OF THE NUT/SLEEVE!

THE NEAREST INFINITY FACILITY IS ABOUT 90 MI. FROM MY LOCATION. THEY SAY T...

I PURCHASED 2009 INFINITI EX 35 ONE MONTH AGO(SEPTEMBER 30, 2009). THERE IS A "PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG OFF" LIGHT. ACCORDING TO INFINITI SERVICE CENTER NEARBY, IT IS DESIGNED TO DETECT CHILD OR SMALL ADULT WHO IS LESS THAN 100 POUNDS SEATING ON PASSENGER SIDE AND PREVENT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG FROM DEPLOYING IN ACCIDENT. THEY SAID FOR CHILDREN OR SMALL ADULT LESS THAN 100 POUNDS, IT IS BETTER TO HAVE NO AIRBAG ON CRASH BECAUSE IT WILL CAUSE MORE HARM THAN GOOD. HERE IS THE PROBLEM. MY WIFE IS 130 POUNDS, 5.80 FT TALL (NOT A SMALL ADULT OR CHILDREN SIZE). WHEN SHE SITS IN PASSENGER SIDE, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG OFF" LIGHT TURNS ON AND OFF AND ON AND OFF DURING A SINGLE TRIP. THE SERVICE MANAGER IS SAYING THAT BECAUSE SHE IS IN BORDER LINE OF WEIGHT LIMIT, IF SHE MOVES WHILE SEATING, IT CAN HAPPEN. MY WIFE AND I CLOSELY OBSERVED THE LIGHT AND THE LIGHT TURNS ON AND OFF EVEN THOUGH SHE IS SEATING STILL PERFECTLY(NOT MOVING AT ALL). THE SERVICE CENTER CHECKED THE SENSOR OF PASSENGER SIDE AI...
