“My 2013 JX35 automatic trunk release is not working properly. When I initiate the button to open the trunk it opens completely and immediately starts to close even if someone is in the trunk area which its suppose to rebound. I have to physically stop the trunk from closing on me and this is not an easy task since the hydraulics and weight of the trunk is heavy.”
NHTSA complaint #10717239, filed 2015-05, 52,170 miles“I have replaced the battery in my 2013 Infiniti JX35 3-4 times. Dealership continues to say this is normal. Recently, multiple exterior light bulbs have gone out and the 'instrument cluster' suddenly went dark while I was driving. I cannot see meters like gas, speed, etc. I cannot hear or see my blinker or headlight indicators. Additionally, all the power controls including speed control no longer work. I am concerned there is a significant electrical safety hazard. I no longer feel safe driving this car with my children. …”
NHTSA complaint #11389507, filed 2021-01, 101,000 miles“I have three issues that I have had within 3 days of buying this certified pre-owned JX35. (1) the vehicle information display (I.e., dashboard panel) stopped working while driving on a major city route leaving me without turn signal capabilities, speedometer, fuel gauge and any vehicle information such as tire pressure, maintenance, etc. The display came back on later and so did the malfunction indicator light. The local Infiniti dealership repaired the problem under warranty by replacing a combination meter. …”
NHTSA complaint #10920117, filed 2016-10, 46,200 miles“I parked in my drive-way about 9pm on sun, nov 22, 2014. Upon exiting the car, I smelt and saw faint smoke on the passenger side of the car. I walked to that side and saw orange fire behind the fog light in the lower passenger bumper (inside where the bumper has a flat ledge). I ran in the house for a fire extinguisher and my husband and we tried to extinguish the fire several times, but it would re-ignite. When we realized we could not extinguish, we called 911 for the fire dept. …”
NHTSA complaint #10662434, filed 2014-12, 52,000 miles“Within the initial 12k miles of owning this JX35, we've experienced a serious problem with the JX35 passenger air bag indicator light. My wife is approx. 130 lbs. And the light comes on numerous times indicating that the airbag will not function during an accident. This is a serious and significant safety issue which nissan has been unable to fix. It's been recalled twice and has been to the dealership over five (5) times for this specific problem. It is currently at the dealership and we've told them to buy back the car. …”
