2013 Infiniti M37 Complaints

Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2013 Infiniti M37. The vehicle was a local independent dealer sale. The contact stated that after purchasing the vehicle, the contact was informed by the mechanic that there was a mileage discrepancy. At the time of purchase, the mileage was 80,000. The VIN search by the mechanic indicated that the mileage was 180,000.

In December, 2022, the airbag warning light activated. AT a cost to us of over $1500, the Infiniti dealer replaced the failed sensor. What we did not know is that this did not fix the problem and the air bag on the passenger side would never have deployed in the event of an accident. In November, 2023, the airbag warning light again activated. It turns out that the seat assembly had actually failed of which we were unaware. This is a very expensive repair to a part that should never have failed in the first place. After significant discussions with Infiniti, they did decide to cover the cost of the seat assembly itself but not the labor to install it (another $800). At this time, we are still unclear as to whether this will actually solve the problem. Aside from a very expensive repair to a part which never should have failed (especially since the car is very lightly driven) we were and are very concerned that this could have resulted in a very serious injury in the event of a vehic...

The airbag control module failed on this car which has under 25000 miles on it. The airbag would not have deployed if the car was in an accident and insurance claims would have been void so we had no choice but to immediately replace the module at a cost of over $2,000. The dealer inspected and confirmed that this was the case (and also that they have seen it happen on other Infinity's). The warning light was the first indication of the problem and we immediately took it to the dealer who replaced it. We can understand mechanical failures in an older car but it seems ridiculous that this vital piece of safety equipment would fail on a car with very low mileage and we have never had a car where the airbag system failed.

2013 INFINITYM37S PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR MALFUNCTION, APPARENTLY SHUTTING OFF PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND THE NHTSA SHOULD MAKE NISSAN/ INFINITY MAKE CORRECTION TO THIS SENSOR, BEFORE MANY OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLE FAMILY ARE KILLED OR SEVERELY INJURED.

WHEN I ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE DOESN'T SPEED UP AND SOMETIMES IT HESITATES. THIS IS DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY WHEN ENTERING THE FREEWAY IT TAKES A WHILE AFTER I ACCELERATE FOR THE CAR TO GET UP TO SPEED. SEEMS LIKE A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. INFINITI NEEDS A RECALL. I KNOW SEVERAL PEOPLE WITH THIS CAR AND HAVE THE SAME ISSUE.
