The engine check light came. I also received a letter from infinti for recall. The power of the vehicle declined.

Engine manufactured with porous block causing coolant to mix with oil resulting in bearing failure. Vehicle has less than 60k miles and I have seen numerous reports on Infiniti Q50/Q60 forums with people having the exact same issue. Some vehicles have had multiple engine replacements. Vehicle out of warranty due to age. Have not been able to drive vehicle for over a year and was told I should report issue to the government since Infiniti has not stepped up and done a voluntary recall.

WE TOOK OUR CAR IN FOR ITS FIRST OIL CHANGE AT A OIL LUBE BUSINESS AND AFTERWARD OUR CAR'S ENGINE SEIZED UP ABOUT 4 MILES DOWN THE ROAD, AND COMPLETELY DESTROYED ITSELF. AFTER INVESTIGATING, IT SEEMS THE OIL TECH MAY HAVE DAMAGED THE OIL FILTER ASSEMBLY'S DELICATE END TIP PIECE UNBEKNOWNST TO HIM. IT IS INCONCLUSIVE IF HE DAMAGED IT OR BROKE IT OFF. AT A LATER DATE THIS OIL LUBE BUSINESS GAVE US AN INFINITI TBS THEY GOT FROM OUR INFINITI DEALERSHIP, THAT THEY NOR I, HAD EVER SEEN. ALSO IT DOES NOT SEEM TO BE FILED WITH ANYONE NOR THE NHTSA. THE TBS CLAIMS THAT THIS PART BREAKS VERY EASILY IF NOT PROPERLY HANDLED.
