Hello. My vin number is not showing unresolved recalls, but I believe it is based on my experience. I was parking my car, which involved turning my steering wheel all the way to the right, and heard a crunching, clicking sound. I did some teoubleshooting, and believe it is the clock spring giving out. What concerns me is 1 of the 4 recalls in particular. Infiniti recalled the 2017 and 2018 QX30 compact crossover SUV due to a potential for the driver's airbag to deploy unexpectedly. The recall was issued due to a grounding issue with the steering components that could cause an electrostatic charge to build up. If the airbag clock spring broke, the driver's side airbag could deploy accidentally, which could result in a crash or injury to the driver. When I called Sewell Infiniti in Dallas, TX, I was told they had no recalls showing for my 2017 QX30, and to look at it would cost $240. I am currently not in a place financially to be able to afford this, but am concerned for my safety. I bought this car used from Carmax, but have since taken it to Sewell Infiniti for service and repairs. Please advise the best course of action as I am truly scared to drive my car due to this potentially deadly situation.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
While driving vehicle warning message appeared on cluster saying “ABS INOPERABLE” with ABS and traction control lights on. Minutes later all power steering is gone and vehicle is very difficult to steer. This not only put me in danger but also my passengers and others on the road as well. This has happened multiple times. Brought the vehicle to the infinity dealer to be told I needed 2 new batteries. Bought new batteries and is still happening. The owner manual says to rock steering wheel side to side while driving 12mph to reset. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. I have read multiple complaints on different forums for the same issue I am complaining about. Is Infinity waiting for someone to be injured or killed due to this malfunction before they issue a recall and fix this problem? In addition to this electronic issue I have also had other lights appear for “reverse not possible”, maintenance required, as well as others I can not remember at this time. Clearly there is an electrical issue with these vehicles.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? I am not entirely sure what specific part of my car is causing this issue, but from the research I have done regarding other people with my make/model of the car, it seems like it is something with the electrical system/auxiliary battery. Yes, it can be examined upon request at this time. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? My car has an ecostart button that is automatically on when you get into the car, and there is no way to turn it off unless you remember to press the button to turn it off manually. My car (and many other people's cars with this make/model) have described the exact same issue when driving. The ecostart is malfunctioning. The engine will shut off at a red light, and when I go to lift my foot off the brake to go again, the car will make a loud popping noise and shut off entirely. A message pops up that says "Do not shift gears. See dealership." I have to physically turn the car on and off again to move, and I only figured this out after having been stuck at a red light in the middle of traffic. It is not safe that this car will completely lose functionality in the middle of traffic. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? I took it to a mechanic that confirmed the check engine light was on for an ecostart code, but they could not figure out why the code was being pulled. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? I only received a message when the car started failing. There were times where the car would make the popping noise, the radio would turn off, and then it would slowly come back on without the entire car shutting off.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? I am not entirely sure what specific part of my car is causing this issue, but from the research I have done regarding other people with my make/model of the car, it seems like it is something with the electrical system/auxiliary battery. Yes, it can be examined upon request at this time. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? My car has an ecostart button that is automatically on when you get into the car, and there is no way to turn it off unless you remember to press the button to turn it off manually. My car (and many other people's cars with this make/model) have described the exact same issue when driving. The ecostart is malfunctioning. The engine will shut off at a red light, and when I go to lift my foot off the brake to go again, the car will make a loud popping noise and shut off entirely. A message pops up that says "Do not shift gears. See dealership." I have to physically turn the car on and off again to move, and I only figured this out after having been stuck at a red light in the middle of traffic. It is not safe that this car will completely lose functionality in the middle of traffic. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? I took it to a mechanic that confirmed the check engine light was on for an ecostart code, but they could not figure out why the code was being pulled. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? I only received a message when the car started failing. There were times where the car would make the popping noise, the radio would turn off, and then it would slowly come back on without the entire car shutting off.

Potential Consequences:
I was in a car accident where the front of my car collided with another car damaging and taking part of the front of my car off and pushing it up bulging at the side mirrors and my airbag did not deploy. After the impact, my dashboard had "SRS Malfunction Service Requested" light to come on. This accident occurred on 4.25.22 around 6am in New Orleans located at the I-10 and I-610 EB. The car was deemed as a complete total by both insurance parties even though the airbag did not deploy. I hit my head knocking my glasses off my face and my chest causing severe whiplash, back muscle spasms, and broke a rib from the impact of hitting my steering wheel. I do have a picture of the SRS light that came on. Consumer totaled car with some injuries that could have been avoided had my airbag not malfunctioned and deployed.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
I have been attempting since July to get the recall repaired. I went there in July after calling and making an appointment but they did not have a loaner car so I left. No one could tell me how long the repair would take. Attempt # 2 called Infiniti of Coconut creek and explained that I was calling to get an appointment to have the recall for my steering repaired and I wanted to make an appointment . He told me to come down. I explained to him what happened last time and I didn't want to make an unnecessary trip and I wanted to make sure it was something they could fix today or that they had a loaner car available for me. I then asked for a supervisor who advised me they had no loaner cars and he was not sure how long the repair would take. He said that he would check with the tech and put me on a list for a loaner car after a 10 minute rant on how they have no loaner cars b/c customers like me don't bring them back. That was 4 months ago never to hear from him again. Attempt # 3 in November called again same run around, sent emails to both Infiniti and Infiniti of coconut creek and heard back from the Service manager same person I spoke to in July (although he denies it. I recognize his voice. He stated that they needed to order the part, that it would take 2 to 4 weeks and once it came in he would call me to schedule the repair. Much like last time no call back. It's now been over 5 weeks and I still have not heard back regarding the repair of my recalled car.
