NHTSA Complaint #10544405 — 2003 INFINITI I35

WE WERE DRIVING LOCALLY AT NORMAL SPEED AND THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER AS THOUGH WE RAN OUT OF GAS. WE WERE ABLE TO SLIDE SOMEWHAT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER A WHILE, THE CAR STARTED AGAIN AND WE THOUGHT IT WAS JUST SOME KIND OF FLUKE. WE ARE SENIOR CITIZENS AND DO NOT DRIVE A GREAT DEAL HOWEVER WE THOUGHT ALL WAS WELL AND IN AUGUST WE ROAD ON THE HIGHWAY 95 TO CONNECTICUT AND THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED AFTER WE ARRIVED AND WERE PULLING INTO A LOCAL MALL, ONCE AGAIN WE HAD TO BE TOWED. IF THIS HAD HAPPENED TO US ON 95 WE WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. ABOUT A WEEK AGO MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEED IN THIS AREA LOCALLY AND THE SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED, AT NIGHT AND THE CAR WOULD NOT RESPOND AND A TOW TRUCK HAD TO BE CALLED AND THE CAR TOWED TO A SERVICE STATION. THE NEXT DAY WE SPOKE TO THE MECHANIC AND HE SAID HE DROVE THE CAR ALL OVER AND DID TESTING AND FOUND NOTHING. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS MATTER. MY DAUGHTER OFTEN HAS HER BABY IN THE CAR AND SO EVEN MORE DANGER IS INVOLVED. I CONTACTED INFINITY AND THEY SAID THERE IS NO RECALL BUT WE SAW MANY COMPLAINTS BY OWNERS ON THE WEB SEARCH, INFINITY 35 2003, WITH THE EXACT SAME COMPLAINT. DOES THERE HAVE TO BE FATALITY TO FORCE SOME ACTION? *TR
