THEY WILL CALL ME TOMORROW WITH THE INFO ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THE CAR. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL CAR!!!! INFINITI PLEASE FIX THESE PROBLEMS. *TR

TRAVELING ON I95, MINIMALLY SLIPPERY CONDITIONS (SNOW), CAR SUDDENLY STARTS HESITATING/JERKING. UNABLE TO ACCELERATE PAST 44-45 MPH, 2400 RPM. HAD TO MOVE FROM THE FAR LEFT LANE ACROSS 4 LANES SHOULDER. APPARENTLY VEHICLE ENTERED "FAILSAFE" MODE. TOOK TO DEALER LATER IN THE DAY, AT WHICH POINT THE VEHICLE WORKED NORMALLY. DEALER (JBA INFINITI) SAID "CARBON BUILDUP." NO OTHER DEFECTS FOUND. CHARGED APPROXIMATELY $325. ONE OR TWO WEEKS LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPENED. PROBLEM OBVIOUSLY COMPUTER ISSUE. THIS IS DANGEROUS, SIMILAR TO GM INCIDENTS WHEN PROBLEM OCCURS ON HIGH-SPEED ROADWAY WITHOUT WARNING. *TR

THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION IN THE INFINITI M37 SPORT HESITATES AND STRUGGLES TO FIND THE APPROPRIATE GEAR. EVEN UPON SOFT ACCELERATION, THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS BETWEEN THE FIRST 3 GEARS BEFORE REACHING 20MPH AND ALL BETWEEN 1500-2000RPM. THIS CAN CREATE A HAZARDOUS SITUATION WHEN TURNING LEFT ACROSS A MULTI-LANE, DIVIDED ROAD--ESPECIALLY FROM A STOP. THE CAR SIMPLY WON'T ACCELERATE QUICKLY ENOUGH. SAME IS TRUE WHEN ENTERING A HIGHWAY ON-RAMP AT SPEEDS ABOVE 40MPH. THE CAR SIMPLY DOES NOT DOWNSHIFT QUICKLY ENOUGH TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE POWER FOR ACCELERATION. FOR A "SPORT" SEDAN, THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND DANGEROUS. *TR
