Air Bags
02/14/2024
The supplemental air bag warning light came on the dashboard. My local mechanic coded it at B1018, occupant sensor failure. At his suggestion, I brought it to a Nissan dealership (Infiniti is over an hour away from where I live.). They indicated I need to replace both seat sensor and OCS module. They say the seat must be replaced. Checking the Internet, there is a recent recall for Infiniti air bag problems. I contend that if that same system was used in 2011, a recall of that year should exist. In addition, there are many similar issues reported on the Internet.

Steering, electrical System

While car was in operation, Intelligent Key System warning light came on (yellow "KEY" light). After turning off car engine, car will no longer start up. Key fob locks and unlocks doors, but car will not start. Prior to this incident there were no indications of a problem, no wornings. Upon investigation and research, the issue is related to a "Steering Lock Failure", and is widely known for years by other owners, repair shops, and Nissan and Infiniti. Nissan has addressed the issue by recalling and repairing the failure, however Infiniti has ignored the issue even though it is the same part (and same company). Infiniti must be made to repair the failure, as Nissan has done.

While enrooted to work my vehicle just shut off unexpectedly. I had the vehicle towed to nearest mechanic shop and they could not find out why my vehicle stopped, then the vehicle started back up and I drove the vehicle home. A few days later on my way to work again, my vehicle would not start at all. I had AAA come out to try and start the vehicle thinking that it was a dead battery, but I was told that the battery was in good shape. A few days later my vehicle started once again, so I took it to another mechanic shop and was informed that it was possibly the key fob, then the vehicles onboard computer. They proceeded to troubleshoot the vehicle thinking that this maybe the issue, then the vehicle would not start once again. It was not any of the issues that they thought. The vehicle was taken to the dealership to find out what was going on for sure. I was then informed that it was possibly the steering wheel lockbox since the dashboard yellow key light is lighting up as well, and tha...

Electrical System, vehicle Speed Control, unknown Or Other

I was having gas mileage issues and had an engine light come on one day. I checked it for it to come up with mass air flow sensor code. I had them replaced. Once I replaced them I noticed I still had the light and mileage issues. I did some research and found out you need to reprogram the sensors at a dealership after replacement. I scheduled an appointment at Infiniti of Akron and they reprogrammed them. I left and a couple hours of driving later the acceleration is worse and mileage is bad. The engine light comes back on. I call back they check my ECU and said I was missing an update. They couldn’t do the update due to their systems being down at the time and told me they would call me when they were ready. I left to head home. I hopped on the highway towards my house. After about 10 minutes of driving my car begins to slow down to a complete halt and stalls right in rush hour traffic. I had no where to safely pull over. There was no shoulder available due to construction. I immediat...

THIS HAPPENED 9.03.19. I RAN SOME ERRANDS THEN PROCEEDED TO HEAD HOME. EVERYTHING WAS FINE. I WAS PARKED FOR ABOUT 2.5 HOURS WHEN I WENT BACK TO MY CAR. IT LET ME IN AS USUAL SO I DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING WAS A MISS. HOWEVER, WHEN I TRIED TO START IT. IT DIDN'T START. I TRIED CHANGING THE BATTERY ON THE INTELLIGENT KEY FOB AND NOTHING. ON THE DASH WAS YELLOWISH KEY LIGHT APPEARED EVERY TIME I TRIED TO TURN THE CAR ON. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AND HE ORIGINALLY THOUGHT IT WAS THE BATTERY BECAUSE THE LIGHT DIDN'T COME ON. HE TRIED TO GIVE IT A BOOST AND STILL NOTHING. WE BROUGHT IT TO THE SHOP AND IT TURNED OUT TO THE STEERING LOCKBOX. THIS ISSUE COULD CAUSE SOMEONE TO BE IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION. LUCKILY I WAS HOME, HOWEVER, I COULD HAVE BEEN ANYWHERE WITH MY 5 YR OLD CHILD. I WAS NOT PREPARED FOR ANYTHING TO GO WRONG AS I RECEIVED NO INDICATORS THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG. I KEEP UP WITH ALL MAINTENANCE ON MY CAR BECAUSE I RELY ON IT TO GET ME TO POINT A AND SO ON ALONG WITH MY PRECIOUS...
