My solenoid switch went bad on me and needed to be replaced, took it to the infiniti dealership and they corrected the problem so i thought until oct 13 when i kept hearing this noise coming from my hook like a squealing noise.. took it back to the dealership and found out it was the timing chain, which i was told had nothing to do with the solenoid switch that was previously fixed.. found out that was a lie and that they go hand in hand with each other and they wanted to charge me 1400 dollars just to look at the problem and another 2,000 to fix the issue, well it turns out that infiniti already knew that this was a problem with the solenoid being to small to pump the required old to where its suppose to go and never did a recall or anything but they are trying to say if its out of warranty than they are not required to fix it, this is a safety hazard if not replaced by infiniti this will cause the solenoid switch to go bad then the timing chain, and then your engine will blow up on you.. this should be a recall issue for infiniti to fix because this will be very costly to someone and it shouldn't be... *tr
Tl* the contact owns a 2011 infiniti m56x. the contact stated the vehicle failed to start. the contact was able to start the vehicle. however, shortly after the battery died, the lights failed and the vehicle automatically locked, leaving the contact trapped in the vehicle. the vehicle was taken to a dealer. the technician was unable to diagnose the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure and current mileage was 27,000.
Issue: passenger seat belt light continues to remain on after the passenger is no longer sitting on the seat. root cause from dealer: defective passenger occupancy sensor. only way to turn off the seat belt light is to either put the passenger seat belt on or turn on and off the car. i noticed when i purchased the infiniti 2011 m56 the seat belt light would remain on after a passenger has been sitting on the passenger front seat and exits the vehicle. the passenger just needs to sit on the passenger side for a few minutes to exhibit this problem. this is a safety concern as i don't know if the airbag will deploy properly as the occupancy sensor is falsely triggering a passenger is sitting in the passenger side. the airbag light indicator will sometimes be on or off when the seat belt light comes on. after taking the car back and forth on multiple occasions and to multiple infiniti dealerships, was finally able to to get to the problem. one of the dealership was finally able to conclude it was due to the front passenger occupancy sensor. even had an infiniti engineer from the norther ca region confirm the issue was indeed due to the occupancy sensor. this issue was first reported when under the original warranty however infiniti and infiniti consumer affairs will not honor the original warranty. also i have the extended warranty just for this purpose however this part is not covered.
