The front side rails of the body of the vehicle have corroded (rusted) from the inside and have perforated the exterior of the members exposing them to further damage. In my opinion, the vehicle is no longer safe to be driven without the risk of the members collapsing and possibly causing an accident.

Went to open driver door and door handle broke off. Vehicle was stationary.
The exterior door handles of my fx35 all came off..when trying to open door. Initially occurred with one of the rear doors. Thought maybe I was too rough with it..so didnt make much of it. When second rear door broke off..I knew something wasnt right. I call infiniti..they replied stating that there wasno recall. The driver side handle then broke off 2 years ago..then finally front passenger last month. I cant believe it. When you spend money on an "luxury" vehicle, all four of the door ahndles should not be coming off.
Infiniti dashboard bubbling excessively causing glare while driving. Apparently there was a recall for this issue but my dealer never told me. I am the original owner and I was taking my car to the dealer for maintenance and repairs up until 2011 and the deal never told me there was a recall. No apparently the recall is expired or something and is not covered. I don't understand how a recall can expire if its an safety issue and how a deal can get away without notifying their clients.
