Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Driver side leather seat is totally cracked. Dealer said that he's never seen this before and no other cars have had this problem. Since then, I've checked Infiniti forums for service instructions and general help. I have noticed this reported a lot but nothing is ever done. Now I can see complaints here when I went to look for my airbag recall notice. My car is on the airbag list, but I have not been contacted. These seats are an issue that has never been handled. The dealer was not truthful and it has been a very long time now. …”
