“Traveling at 1 MPH, my 2011 Infiniti QX56 bumped another vehicle. There was no damage to either vehicle, but my driver airbag deployed. Infiniti is refusing to look at the vehicle unless my insurance company asks them to. I feel this low speed deployment is from a defect in this week old vehicle, but cannot get help. I am concerned Infiniti is attempting to ignore the problem and brush it under the rug.”
