NHTSA Complaint #10767417 — 2013 INFINITI G37

I WAS IN A PARKING LOT. I BACKED OUT WHEN I STARTED TO SHIFT INTO DRIVE THE CAR ACCELERATED AND STARTED TO SPIN IN CIRCLES. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED. I WAS NOT IN CONTROL OF THE CAR AND NOTHING WOULD WORKED IN THE CAR. I COULDN'T SHIFT GEARS SO I SHOVED IT INTO PARK. THE CAR FINALLY STOPPED BUT NOT BEFORE IT HIT AN ISLAND CAUSING $7822 IN DAMAGES TO THE REAR OF THE CAR. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I WAS QUITE SHAKEN UP BUT HAD NO SERIOUS INJURY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AT THE LOCAL AND REGIONAL LEVELS. THEY HAD SOMEONE LOOK AT THE VEHICLE BUT AFTER 7 WEEKS THEY STILL HAVE NOT CONTACTED ME WITH THEIR FINDINGS. I AM NOT DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND I HAVE NOT HAD IT REPAIRED. I FEAR THAT IF I HAVE IT REPAIRED AND I SELL THE VEHICLE, IT IS AN UNSAFE CAR AND SOMEONE ELSE WILL GET HURT. I HAVE FOUND SEVERAL REPORTS OF SIMILAR OCCURRENCES ON THE INTERNET.
