2015 Infiniti Q50 Electrical System Problems

P07200 code came up, transmission is no good because of a cheap sensor that's impossible to fix. seems to be very common and very inconvenient

My car started acting weird, fob wasn’t working correctly, doors repeatedly lock nonstop and drained battery. I took to Infiniti and they said it’s water damage from my sunroof drains. It damaged my BCM. Infiniti has quoted me 3,700 dollars to fix. I’ve done lots of research and this seems to be a very common problem with the Infiniti q50 models. I believe this is a manufactured defect. This could of left me stranded because car wouldn’t crank.

The contact owns a 2015 Infiniti Q50. The contact stated that while driving at highway speeds, the vehicle inadvertently slowed down. The vehicle failed to accelerate. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer where it was diagnosed that a valve body replacement was needed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, and the contact was informed that the vehicle was not covered under warranty. The failure mileage was approximately 56,000.

All or one of the doors lock preventing someone from exiting the vehicle. This could be extra dangerous during adverse weather conditions or in the event of an emergency.

I WAS SIMPLY DRIVING ON THE STREET WHEN MY VEHICLE STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD CAUSING CARS TO ALMOST HIT ME. I WAS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY ACCIDENT BUT INFINITI HAS INFORMED ME THAT THE EMERGENCY SHUT OFF WAS ACTIVATED FOR UNKNOWN REASON CAUSING MY AC COMPRESSOR TO BLOW AND ENTIRE FUSE BOX TO BE DESTROYED. MY CAR ONLY HAS 70K MILES ON IT SO THIS A SAFETY HAZARD. THESE PARTS NEED TO BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY THERE'S NO LEGITIMATE REASON FOR A NEW CAR TO DO THIS. ACCORDING TO THE MANUAL THE EMERGENCY SHUT OF FOR INFINITI HYBRIDS ONLY HAPPENED WHEN INVOLVED IN MAJOR CAR ACCIDENTS. THIS IS NOT RIGHT.

ON 12-04-2018 MY WIFE AND I BEGAN A ROAD TRIP FROM SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA TO BOZEMAN, MONTANA IN OUR 2015 INFINITI Q50. THE INFINITI Q50 IS EQUIPPED WITH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEAT WARMERS. DUE TO THE EXTREME COLD, MY WIFE (PASSENGER) ACTIVATED HER RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WARMER TO THE HIGH SETTING. THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WARMER WAS ACTIVATED FROM NORTHERN NEVADA TO IDAHO FALLS, IDAHO, APPROXIMATELY FOR 9 HOURS. AS WE APPROACHED IDAHO FALLS, MY WIFE AND I BEGAN TO SMELL A BURNT ODOR COMING FROM WITHIN THE INTERIOR OF THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT OF THE INFINITI. WE IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND MY WIFE LOCATED THE BURNT SMELL COMING FROM THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WHERE MY WIFE'S RIGHT ELBOW HAD BEEN RESTING DURING THE TRIP. THE SEAT WARMER HAD HEATED THE SEAT TO THE POINT WHERE IT HAD BURNED THROUGH THE LAYERING AND SOFTENED THE LEATHER TO THE POINT WHERE MY WIFE'S ELBOW WENT THROUGH. THIS WAS AN IMMEDIATE CONCERN AND WE TURNED OFF BOTH SEAT WARMERS. ON 12-17-2018, UPON OUR RETURN FROM MONTANA WE TOOK THE INFINITI Q50 TO THE PERRY INFINITI DEALERSHIP OF ESCONDIDO, CA WHERE IT WAS LEFT FOR INSPECTION. ON 12-19-2018 WE WERE TOLD BY PERRY INFINITI DEALERSHIP THAT THE DAMAGE WOULD NOT BE COVERED DUE TO THEIR FINDINGS. PERRY INFINITI STATED THAT THEY BELIEVED THE DAMAGE TO BE CAUSED BY AN OUTSIDE SOURCE. THIS TO US WAS IMPOSSIBLE SINCE WE ARE NOT SMOKERS NOR DO WE TRANSPORT ANY FLAMMABLE PRODUCTS IN OUR VEHICLE. WE CONTACTED THE INFINITY CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND REPORTED THE INCIDENT BUT MET WITH THE SAME NEGATIVE RESULTS. A CONSUMER AFFAIRS CASE WAS STARTED AND WE WERE TOLD THAT THE ULTIMATE DECISION WOULD BE MADE BY THE DEALERSHIP. WE FIND THIS VERY DISTURBING AND SEE FUTURE ISSUES WITH INFINITI'S SEAT WARMERS THAT COULD ULTIMATELY LEAD TO BODILY HARM. THANK GOD FOR MY WIFE'S LAYERING OF CLOTHING OR SHE MAY HAVE RECEIVED BODILY HARM.
