Infiniti M35 stalling problems

Filed Mar 1, 2022 · Acceleration · TN · crash

The car accelerated without warning. I did not have my foot on the gas and the car just sped up. This has happened 2 times. The first time I didnt have an accident but today I did. I ran into a pole. I could have killed myself or someone around me when the car sped up. No warning. I took the car to the dealer and they admitted that there had been a recall but stated it was fixed on my car but it has not been fixed....here is the recall information 2010 INFINITI M35 Report Date: September 26, 2013 Campaign Number: 13V430000 Component: VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:ACCELERATOR PEDAL Summary: Nissan North America, Inc.

The recall is expected to begin during November 2013. Owners may contact Nissan at 1‑800‑647‑7261

About a month ago, I was driving my car home from the store and the engine stalled as I was about to pull into the parking space. I thought the battery was dead, so I called a family member to give me a jump. The car started back up and drove fine for about two days. Then it happened again, I was on my way home from picking the kids up from school and the engine stalled again, right in the middle of the highway. The car would still be on but it would not move at all. After turning the car off and waiting for a few minutes, the car started back up. I had it towed to aaa car care center, where they determined that I may need to have the camshaft and crankshaft sensors replaced. However, after doing some research online and reading countless complaints and forum posts from people who were having the same problem, I decided not to pay the $751. I read many posts from other infiniti owners whose car would cut off while being operated, who paid tons of money to get their sensors replaced, only to have the same problem return. I drove my car home from aaa but not without incident. The car cut off in the middle of the interstate with my six year old daughter in the backseat. Very dangerous. After waiting for a few minutes, I was able to start the car again and drive the rest of the way home. I took the car to a local auto zone to check the battery and it was fine. A few days later, I had the car towed to the nissan dealership to have my airbag replaced due to the recent (takata) airbag recall. While there, I had them do a diagnostic on the car. They found a bunch of codes, but could not tell me what the problem is with my car. I am terrified to drive the car for fear of getting into an accident. I don't know if the engine is going to stall on the interstate while I'm driving at 60 MPH. This is obviously a common problem among infiniti owners.

This car should be called, it is unsafe to drive as the engine just stops. I was driving along, when all of sudden my car just died, when I stopped, I couldn't get the vehicle started, it was acting like it didn't have gas or the battery died. A light saying vdc (slipped) turned on as well as the service engine soon. I let it sit for a few minutes and it started. The engine stopped when I was on the freeway with my grandchildren so I started to pull over and the engine came back on. I looked on line and the infiniti g35 was recalled for this reason and since my car is an m35 the dealership would not give me the recall. Here is the info on the g35 recall and see my bill attached.

On march 9th, 2015 my 2006 infiniti m35 stalled while I was driving it and wouldn't start again. I checked the fuses and battery and couldn't find any issues so I had it towed to the local infiniti dealer. Initially the dealer told me that the ECM (brain) needed to be replaced and, after a fair amount of pressure from me to stand behind their product, the nissan factory agreed to cover the ECM replacement (~$2200). On april 9th, 2015 they informed me my car was "fixed and ready" however when driving home it stalled on the freeway (while going ~70mph with my kids in the car with me) and again, it wouldn't start. I had it towed back to the dealer and paid for an advanced diagnostic ($420) at which time they discovered "melted and shorting" wires between the power distribution unit (pdu) and the fuse box... On april 22nd, 2015 they replaced these wires (they never actually diagnosed the cause of the melted shorting wires) and they again told me my car was "fixed and ready"... Yet again, while driving home the car stalled on the freeway and wouldn't start. I had it towed back to the dealer again and they called in an advanced factory technician who determined that the main wiring harness and another wiring harness needed to be replaced and they're quoting me an outrageous amount for the repair ($8400). The car currently shows a ~$10.5k value on kelley blue book...

These defective parks keeps making the idle jump and sometimes stall. I keep replacing them to see if they are bad but will not clear the check engine light.
