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

“My 2003 Infiniti Q45 repeatedly stalls [so far, 15+ times] and often will not restart [10+ times]. With my family and me in the car, the stalling of the car puts us repeatedly in jeopardy of a rear-end collision or vandalism or bodily injury in dangerous areas. The car is properly maintained on its service schedule. It took my mechanic a week at a cost of $90 to confirm that the problem is the engine control module [ECM], the 'brain' of the car which controls other vehicle sensors, and this was confirmed by the Infiniti dealer at a cost of $150. …”
