The car suddenly out of nowhere while driving started to studder and stall. While on street and highway no matter the speed without warning other then a smooth even ride and sound to sounding like a motorcycle feeling like it shifted into low and stalling.
The transmission started slipping when driving forward and then the car would stall and not move. When putting back in parking and then to drive, the car would move but later back to slipping. Took the car to infiniti dealer the same day, they ran the diagnosis and reported that the transmission would have to be replaced completely at the cost of $7000 total. The car has 66000 miles on it and has been maintained for all services regularly. No warning light or alert messages showed on dashboard. Opened the case with "nissan/infiniti consumer affairs" and waiting for their response.
My jx35 has intermittent stalling. Like a stutter where the gears have trouble engaging. Especially when accelerating from a stop or going up hill. It has done this for at least 5 years with no codes ever being thrown from dealership checkups until now. Dealership says it's a CVT error. My daughter has a 2015 nissan altima which is having a similar issue and it is being investigated and fully covered by nissan. I believe this should be covered as well.
Car shudders and stalls when is coming to a stop or slowing down and trying to accelerate will stall and skip rpms I've seen many complaints about the same thing
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 infiniti jx35. While approaching a stop in traffic, the vehicle stalled without warning. The contact was able to restart the vehicle, but it would not move forward or in reverse. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. After approximately two months of being parked, the vehicle was driven to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that a fuel sensor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. A dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 90,000.
This is the 2nd time that my transmission has needed to be replaced. The first time was in 2015 and now the computer is suggesting that my vehicle needs the transmission replaced again. The first time my car would not transition when it was placed into gear. This time my cars RPM's go all the way up even if I barely place my foot on the accelarator and it feels as if it stalls. There is a safety recall but I feel that this vehicle is defective and it should be replaced. My coworker has the same year make and model and his transmission went out too on the highway. This is very dangerous and it seems that fixing it does not resolve the matter.
Vehicle died while driving in parking lot and all interior lights began to strobe with an awd failure light. The vehicle would not restart and the front seats started moving. Vehicle battery died while vehicle was in tow and has been at dealership for almost 2 weeks. Previous problems (within days) include seat memory not pairing with key, key not working to unlock hatch.
Dash went blank and total electronics failed. Vehicle towed to infiniti of tampa on 11/5/2013 and nissan USA infiniti division was advised! We requested that the car be declared unsafe to drive and a replacement or buy back by infiniti was needed. Infiniti entered a stalling tactic. Repairs went from one day to 2 days and now we are being told they will not even have parts till after december 1st, 2013. The dealer infiniti of tampa after a little rocky start has been going above and beyond to be helpful and co operative especially with the loaner car assistance! The problem is with nissan USA infiniti division. We reached a point where we wrote the bbb autoline and the attorney general of forida! In response nissan removed themselves and directed us to go to the bbb autoline if further assistance was needed. Nissan USA infiniti division has divorced itself from trying to assist us once we contacted others as a result of their stalling! We had after over 10 days concluded that infiniti USA was never going to do anything but stll us as long as possible! Consumer beware of the unsavory tactics of nissan USA infiniti division!!
The entire electrical system failed and overheated. This automobile could never again be considered safe in our opinion. The vehicle has been at infiniti of tampa since early november 4, 2013. We were old today that the dealership does not even expect to receive the parts until after december 1st, 2013. This could be a ploy to cover the extensive repairs that may be needed or an attempt to try to keep from replacing the 10 month old defective vehicle with less than 5,000 miles on it!!! This vehicle needs to be replaced with a brand new vehicle of the same color in & out and all the equipment and accessories that were on the vehicle we purchased as brand new!!! Infiniti is of course stalling resolution and the dealer just wants us to pay up and buy a new car w/o consideration of the fact that the present vehicle is defective!!
