NHTSA Complaint #10822058 — 2012 INFINITI QX56

INFINITI QX56 2012 WITH 100,000 MILES STARTED MAKING WHINING NOISE AT START-UP AND THE ENGINE WOULD RUN AND SPUTTER WITHIN 7K MILES OF A FULL SYNTHETIC OIL CHANGE. CALLED DEALERSHIP AFTER WORKING WITH LOCAL MECHANIC AND THEY KNOW THEIR IS A BULLETIN ON THIS VEHICLE THAT REQUIRES AND NEW TIMING CHAIN BE INSTALLED. SEEMS THIS IS ALMOST A 100% FAIL RATE AND JUST IS A MATTER WHEN VERSUS IF THIS WILL FAIL. SPEAKING TO INFINITI AND NISSAN THEY WILL NOT COVER ONE DIME OF THIS $4,500 REPAIR EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A MANUFACTURING LATENT DEFECT. I SPOKE TO TWO DEALERSHIPS AND THEY DO BETWEEN 30-40 OF THESE $4,500 REPAIRS A MONTH...THIS IS SIMPLY CRIMINAL THAT THERE IS NOT A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE. THIS IS A HIGH LUXURY VEHICLE AND TO HAVE THIS ISSUE IS A CRIME. THANKS.
