Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The passenger seat occupancy sensor (ocs) mat is not working properly (code b1018) and is causing the passenger side air bags to be turned off. Infiniti has quoted me $3,250 to correct the problem which requires the replacement of the entire front passenger lower seat assembly (1\2 of a seat for $3,250 !!!). After repeated attempts to Infiniti USA, and the president of Infiniti worldwide - roland krger, infinit has said no to providing me any financial assistance to correct this problem. …”
NHTSA complaint #10763503, filed 2015-09, 95,000 miles“The passenger dashboard on my Infiniti is cracking and Infiniti will not warranty part. The crack is occurring over the passenger airbag and I am concerned for the safety and security of my family. Resolution has been unsuccessful and I feel that Infiniti has sold me an inferior produce even if out of warranty. The year of the vehicle is 2008, and there should not be these kinds of deterioration of materials. The lack of customer satisfaction and consideration of the safety of the occupants is unacceptable.”
NHTSA complaint #10551340, filed 2013-11, 62,000 miles“Takata recall airbag in steering wheel if deployed may contain shrapnel that can be fatal to operator of vehicle. Nothing has occurred, I was notified of a class action suite against takata.”

The dealer (Infiniti of south atlanta 4201 jonesboro rd, union city, ga, 30291) stated that the parts were available; however, they experienced issues with the dashboard fracturing due to the remedy. The dealer was waiting on dashboards before repairing the passenger side air bag inflator. The manufacturer was not contacted. …”
NHTSA complaint #11013330, filed 2017-08, 133,000 miles“This complaint is related to NHTSA recall 16v-349 for passenger side airbags. This recall was initiated in early summer of 2016 and I received a letter from infinity about the recall in august of 2016. I was given an original time frame of sept to oct 2016 for completion of repairs on my car. Now infinity is estimating it will be late nov. 2016 or later before parts are available. In the meantime I have a car where you can't use the front passenger seat. And since the possibility of injury or death is that great of a risk, how can anyone be safe on the passenger side of the car front or back. …”
