THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN AUTO PARTS RETAILER WHERE A DIAGNOSTIC TEST WAS PERFORMED RELATED TO THE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR.

THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST ALSO DISPLAYED CODE NUMBERS RELATED TO THE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR: C1137 AND C1130. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 69,000.

CURRENTLY, THE VEHICLE IS COMPLETELY OUT OF COMMISSION AND SLIGHTLY OUTSIDE OF ANY MANUFACTURE WARRANTY COVERAGE AS IT IS A 2007 WITH APPROXIMATELY 80,000 MILES. I HAVE CONTACTED INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS IN ATTEMPT TO GAIN THEIR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND ACCEPTANCE OF FULL RESPONSIBILITY TO COVER REPAIR COST WITHOUT ANY SUCCESS. I WAS INFORMED BY A CASE...
