PURCHASED CAR, USED, 6/2011. WAS TOLD IT WAS A OWNER BUY BACK DUE TO IT NOT STARTING. FINANCE MANAGER GUARANTEED PROBLEM HAD BEEN FIXED. IN SEPTEMBER 2011 CAR STARTED HESITATING TO START-REQUIRING ME TO LET MY FOOT OFF BRAKE/CLUTCH. INSTRUMENT PANEL WOULD ILLUMINATE BUT CAR WOULD NOT START. IT COULD TAKE UP TO 6 TIMES OF THE BRAKE/CLUTCH EASEMENT FOR CAR TO START. ON 11/19/11 I BROUGHT CAR IN TO ATLANTIC INFINITI TO GET ANOTHER KEY MADE AND TO INFORM THEM RADIO WOULD NOT HOLD A STATION (FADE) AND WOULD NOT PICK UP STATIONS. I RETURNED 1/5/12 DUE TO RADIO STILL NOT FUNCTIONING. I ALSO INFORMED THEM OF THE BRAKE/CLUTCH ISSUE. DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH RADIO BUT D A PART IN THE CLUTCH WAS REPLACED. RADIO CONTINUED TO FUNCTION IMPROPERLY. 1/27/12 CAR WOULD NOT START. HEADLIGHTS WOULD NOT COME ON, UNABLE TO UNLOCK TRUNK AND INTELLIGENT KEY WOULD NOT WORK. CAR TOWED TO ORLANDO INFINITI. MY CAR WAS AT DEALERSHIP TILL 2/6/12. DEALERSHIP ADDRESSED RADIO AND REPLACED ANTENNA AMPHIFIER & REPLACED CLUTCH PEDAL POSITION. DAYS LATER RADIO STARTED MALFUNCTIONING AGAIN. 2/23/11 CAR WOULD NOT START. AS BEFORE, NO LIGHTS, COULD NOT UNLOCK CAR NOR TRUNK. AAA CALLED & THEY COULD NOT START CAR. CAR WAS JUMP STARTED & DIAGNOSTIC TEST PERFORMED. NOTHING WAS FOUND. CAR DRIVEN HOME AND IT WAS TOWED TO ORLANDO INFINITI THE NEXT DAY. AS OF TODAY, 3/6/12, CAR STILL AT DEALERSHIP AND THEY CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I BELIEVE THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS MALFUNCTIONING, PARTICULARLY THE GROUND. I HAVE ASKED INFINITI TO CHECK THIS BUT THEY HAVE NOT. I NO LONGER TRUST THIS CAR AND INFINITI IS NOT BEING PROACTIVE. THEY ARE WAITING FOR MY CAR TO NOT START TO RESEARCH ISSUE. THEIR STATEMENT TO ME "WE GO OUT EVERYDAY AND START IT". I HAVE PUT IN SEVERAL CALLS TO INFINITI USA AND HAVE NOT RECEIVED A RETURN CALL. *TR
