Example complaints

Electrical system: “On saturday, may 30, 2015, I experienced three anomalies with my FX35, during two cycles (engine off). The weather was fair, with partly cloudy skies and a temperatures in the high seventies. At about 10am, when the vehicle was started in the garage, it had an unusually high RPM which I noticed as it was shifted into drive so I could pull out. I always back my vehicle into the garage, so it lunged forward with a strong jerk. Although I thought this was odd, I headed to costco in sterling va and had no further problems for the time being. …”

Air bags: “The dashboard has been cracking with Infiniti offer no help. Now I attempted another time to address the issue with them, and the cracking has happened in the passenger airbag area, where my concern is should this airbag deploy, there will be sharp dashboard plastic flying as a result.”

NHTSA complaint #11386590, filed 2021-01, 91,000 miles

Other or unknown: “In the search of a new dashboard for my 2010 Infiniti FX35 due to a spider web cracking manufacturing issue, I came across another 2010 FX35 with the exact same crack in identical spots. I thought this is impossible to be a coincidence. The main issues are dashboard cracking. Due to the manufacturer defect, this lowers the value of the vehicle tremendously. Please see attached comparison pics below.”

NHTSA complaint #11398296, filed 2021-02, 125,000 miles

Brakes: “I proceeded to pull into a parking space and my brakes failed to stop the car. I went approximately 3 feet before the car stopped after I pressed the brakes. I was going approximately 3-5 miles per hour, since I was about to pull in a parking space. I nearly crashed into a vehicle in front of me.”
