NHTSA Complaint #11298420 — 2015 INFINITI QX60

I HAVE NOTICED MY CAR STUTTER A BIT WHEN I ACCELERATE AT A LOW SPEED. IT HAPPENED INFREQUENTLY BUT AS TIME HAS GONE ON IT HAS GOTTEN MUCH WORSE. WHEN I BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP THEY CHARGED ME $100 TO PUT IT ON THE COMPUTER TO REPROGRAM IT, OF WHICH I THOUGHT WAS ODD. IT WAS TOLD TO ME IN ORDER TO GET AN ACCURATE READING ON THIS MAKE AND YEAR THIS NEEDED TO BE DONE. AFTER DRIVING ANOTHER 1K MILES, IT WOULD REVEAL THE PROBLEM OF WHICH IS A VALVE SYSTEM ISSUE IN THE ENGINE THAT CAN LEAD TO A FAULTY TRANSMISSION. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM FROM THE RESEARCH I'VE DONE. IT IS KNOWN THAT THE 2013, 2014 AND SOME 2015(IF MANUFACTURED IN 2014) INFINITI'S HAVE THIS ISSUE!! THE DEALERSHIP NOW RECOMMENDS ME FIXING THE WHOLE VALVE SYSTEM. THEY WILL GIVE ME A DISCOUNT BUT THAT THIS IS ON ME AS THE CONSUMER. THIS IS NOT A WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE, IT IS A KNOWN DEFECT THAT THIS MODEL/YEAR HAS AND IM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT I HAVE TO PAY TO FIX SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN AN EXISTING ISSUE WITH THIS CAR AND I'M NOT GUARANTEED THAT IT WILL CORRECT THE PROBLEM EVEN IF I DO FIX IT. AS A HUGE COMPANY AS INFINITI I WOULD THINK THEY WOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR CARS ESPECIALLY WHEN THE VALUE SYSTEM IS IMPERATIVE TO MAKE THE CAR WORK PROPERLY AND COULD LEAD TO TRANSMISSION FAILURE IN THE FUTURE!
