NHTSA Complaint #11016236 — 2002 INFINITI I35

I HAD RECENTLY HAD SOME WORK DONE ON MY CAR TO REPLACE THE RIGHT BEARING WHEEL AND THE POWER STEERING LINE, AS THERE WAS A LEAK AND LOUD ROARING NOISE WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AS CONFIRMED BY THE MECHANIC. ABOUT A WEEK LATER, I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY (AT ABOUT 65 MPH) WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I FELT A JERKING IN THE CAR, SUDDENLY THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON, AND THE THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE SHOT ALL THE WAY UP. I PULLED TO SIDE OF THE ROAD AS SOON AS I COULD BECAUSE I SAW WHITE SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I HAD BOUGHT THIS CAR ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO FROM MY UNCLE AND I HAD TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER FOR THE TAKATA RECALL. THEY NEVER MENTIONED ANYTHING ELSE. THEN ABOUT A MONTH BEFORE THIS ALL HAPPEN MY UNCLE SENT ME A LETTER (AS HE HAD MOVED AWAY, REGARDING ANOTHER RECALL ON THE I35. I WAS PLANNING ON TAKING THE CAR TO THE INFINITI DEALER FOR THE RECALL AFTER REPLACING THE POWER STEERING LINE AND FRONT RIGHT WHEEL BEARING. HOWEVER I DID NOT EVEN GET A CHANCE TO DO SO. I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO KNOW IF MY SITUATION HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH A RECALL.
