2013 Infiniti G37

I WAS IN A PARKING LOT. I BACKED OUT WHEN I STARTED TO SHIFT INTO DRIVE THE CAR ACCELERATED AND STARTED TO SPIN IN CIRCLES. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED. I WAS NOT IN CONTROL OF THE CAR AND NOTHING WOULD WORKED IN THE CAR. I COULDN'T SHIFT GEARS SO I SHOVED IT INTO PARK. THE CAR FINALLY STOPPED BUT NOT BEFORE IT HIT AN ISLAND CAUSING $7822 IN DAMAGES TO THE REAR OF THE CAR. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I WAS QUITE SHAKEN UP BUT HAD NO SERIOUS INJURY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AT THE LOCAL AND REGIONAL LEVELS. THEY HAD SOMEONE LOOK AT THE VEHICLE BUT AFTER 7 WEEKS THEY STILL HAVE NOT CONTACTED ME WITH THEIR FINDINGS. I AM NOT DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND I HAVE NOT HAD IT REPAIRED. I FEAR THAT IF I HAVE IT REPAIRED AND I SELL THE VEHICLE, IT IS AN UNSAFE CAR AND SOMEONE ELSE WILL GET HURT. I HAVE FOUND SEVERAL REPORTS OF SIMILAR OCCURRENCES ON THE INTERNET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 INFINITI G37X. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 2 MPH, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY WITHOUT WARNING. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND CRASHED INTO A FENCE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT BODY SHOP BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE MILEAGE WAS 1,800.

WHILE DRIVING WITH A FULL SIZE ADULT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED, WHICH INDICATES THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS OFF. THIS HAS CONTINUED TO OCCUR AT VARIOUS SPEEDS INCLUDING WHILE IDLING. THE CAR HAS BEEN RETURNED TO THE INFINITI DEALER FOUR TIMES. THE INFINITI SERVICE WRITER, MANAGER AND TECHNICIAN SAW THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT ON. AN INFINITI ENGINEER CHECKED THE CAR ON 9/10/2014. HIS REPORT STATED THAT THE CAR IS OPERATING ACCORDING TO SPECIFICATION. THEY SEE NO NEED TO PURSUE THIS PROBLEM ANY FURTHER WHILE THIS PROBLEM CONTINUES, JEOPARDIZING THE PASSENGER'S SAFETY. *TR

PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD LIGHT UP (MEANING AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY) WHEN MY WIFE (117 LBS) WAS SEATED ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS WAS ALSO HAPPENING ON MY 2010 NISSAN FRONTIER PRO 4X TRUCK WITH LEATHER SEATS. NISSAN DEALER COULD NOT FIX IT. THEY WERE BLAMING MY WIFE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE! PLEASE HELP. THANK YOU! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 INFINITI G37. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS CONTINUOUSLY ILLUMINATED WHEN A PASSENGER OF ONE HUNDRED POUNDS OR LIGHTER SAT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS WORKING UP TO SPECIFICATIONS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE DEFECT. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 700.

PASSENGER AIR BAGS ON MY G37 ITS BEING TURNED OFF WITH A PASSENGER SEATING IN THE SEAT. FIRST STARTED WITH MY DAUGHTER AGE 17 WEIGHTS ABOUT 120 POUNDS AND INFINITI STATED THAT THEIR AIRBAGS ARE ACTIVATED BY WEIGHT AND THAT SHE MAY BE TOO SMALL WHICH SHE IS 5'4 TALL. THEY DIDN'T ADDRESS THE ISSUE AND IT CONTINUED TO HAPPEN WITH EVERYONE SEATING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT INCLUDING AN ADULT MALE OF 6'2 AND OVER 200 LBS. I TOOK IT BACK TO INFINITI OF TAMPA AND THEY DIDN'T ADDRESS THE ISSUE. FOR THE THIRD TIME I TAKE VEHICLE TO INFINITI AND NOW THEY STATE THEIR AIRBAGS HAVE A SENSOR THAT MEASURES BODY MASS OF A PERSON TO ACTIVATE AND THAT'S THE REASON I AM GETTING THIS ISSUES WITH AIR BAGS AND THEY SUGGESTED THAT I SHOULD SEAT MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS THAT RIDE IN THE FRONT TO GO TO THE BACK SEAT FOR SAFETY. INFINITI THEN TOOK A LOOK AT MY VEHICLE AND GAVE ME A SAME MODEL LOANER FOR THE DAY WHICH THE SAME THING HAPPEN IN THAT CAR. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HAS TO BE ADDRESS AS IT IS A HAZARD FOR THE SAFETY OF OUR LOVE ONES IN CASE OF A COLLISION. *JS
