NHTSA Complaint #10680792 — 2014 INFINITI Q50

I AM MAKING THIS REPORT TO ALERT YOU TO WHAT I BELIEVE IS A DANGEROUS CONDITION IN A NEWLY OFFERED VEHICLE SYSTEM, AS REPORTED BY A WRITER ([XXX] ) FOR MOTOR TREND MAGAZINE. I DO NOT OWN THIS VEHICLE NOR ANY INFINITI MODEL. THE VEHICLE INVOLVED IS BEING USED BY THE MAGAZINE AS A LONG TERM TEST VEHICLE. THE MAGAZINE REPORTED AT HTTP://WWW.MOTORTREND.COM/ROADTESTS/ONEYEAR/SEDANS/1412_2014_INFINITI_Q50S_37_UPDATE_5/ THAT THE ACTIVE LANE CONTROL SYSTEM CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO VEER TOWARD FREEWAY EXITS. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS DANGEROUS AND IS LIKELY TO RESULT IN BOTH SINGLE-VEHICLE AND MULTIPLE-VEHICLE CRASHES. THE SINGLE-VEHICLE CRASHES ARE LIKELY TO OCCUR WHEN THE DRIVER FAILS TO ACT IN TIME. THE MULTIPLE-VEHICLE CRASHES ARE LIKELY TO OCCUR WHEN THE DRIVER SWERVES TO CORRECT THE CAR'S PATH, AND EITHER HITS OTHER CARS, OR CAUSES THEM TO BRAKE AND SWERVE TO MISS THE INFINITI. IN ORDER TO PROTECT ALL MOTORISTS AND PASSENGERS, PLEASE REQUIRE ALL MANUFACTURERS WHOSE SYSTEMS EXHIBIT THIS CONDITION TO DISABLE THE SYSTEM ON ALL VEHICLES AND STOP MANUFACTURING IT. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
