I was driving down back street and applied brakes due to a stop sign ahead of me and my vehicle did not stop. i was in total shock at the time of the accident and could not believe i rear ended another vehicle. the date of the accident was 2/9/2018. after speaking with two of my other friends weeks later. my friend that owner a nissan murano rear ended another car when she applied the brakes. my other friend who owns an infinity had her vehicle in the shop for braking problems. to me this seems a little ironic if you ask me. *dsy
This vehicle has an issue with uncontrolled acceleration when i first take off. with my brake pedal applied the engine rpm is approx. 550, which is in specs. as soon as i release the brakes the rpm jumps to 1100 rpm and the vehicle takes off on it's on. my vehicle has been to the dealer twice for this problem and they say they can't help me, my first experience i almost rear ended the vehicle in front of me. this an issue that needs addressed. street conditions, weather conditions don't make a difference, and has done it since i purchased it.
I was a passenger in my infiniti qx80 going about 25 +/- . there were 3 beeps and the car suddenly breaked on its own in the middle of the street. i looked up to find nothing in front of us. the driver said the car breaked suddenly on its own! her foot was on the gas peddle and when she reacted by going for the break it was already to the floor. there was absolutely no reason for this emergency collision feature to go off. luckily there was no one close enough behind us to rearend us, although i'm certain the driver wondered why we slammed on our breaks in the middle of the street. thankfully we had already got off of i80 where our speeds ranged up to 70 mph. the dealership currently has the car and claims they can not find any issues, i'm fearful of getting behind the wheel and taking any chances of it happening again. the general manager asked if it were raining hard when the incident occurred.....this makes me even less confident in this safety feature. the other suggestion was an object in the road. if the feb is et off by rain or a small object in the road that is not visible to the eye, that is not a safety feature,
Driving down a city street at about 25-30 mph with no cars in close proximity in front of vehicle. heard three quick beeps and then the car suddenly stopped in the middle of the street. moved foot from gas peddle to the brake to find the brake to the floor. no injuries or damage was sustained. the vehicle was driven directly to the dealer where they can not duplicate the problem. infiniti consumer affairs department was contacted. they agreed with dealer that it could not be duplicated. could not tell us if similar complaints have been filed regarding the feb safety feature of the qx80. *tr
