I was driving oninterstate 435 w. In kansas city kansas. It was about 4:15 am traveling at 70-72 mph my visibility was ok but i thought that if i use my highbeam it would be better. As soon as i clicked high beam on my car instantly turned off. My headlights my interior lights and my radio powered off. As a panic reaction since i had zero visibility and it was dark outside my foot the brakes.as i remember my sibal had already tightened up before hitting the brakes but before i could realize it my car part powered back on by itself without me doing anything i look at my speedometerand i was going about 67-69. When my car powered on it seems as if it rezoned as if nothing had happened now i believe if i was in kansas city kansas rush-houri would have caused a severe accident . Even though it was maybe for a second or two that my car had powered off it was more that my car came to a complete stop and i believe with everything that was electrical they have power it off i don't believe that my brake lights would have worked as well.if that were the case i would've never have gave the driver behind me any kind of warning for them to be able to slow down.luckily it was 4 am in the morning with no traffic that i didn't cause any kind of accident because it would have been unknown how badly it would've cost if they were traffic. I'm not sure what caused this but i know as soon as i had exited off the the interstate i turn the car off turn it back on seem just fine when i went to go turn on the lights my car again powered off.i waited about 15 minutes before i started the car again and it started up just fine waiting for it to warm up turn my lights on again and it did nothing this time and i was able to resume home.

My car ran out of gas on the freeway.the fuel gauge still read 1/4.i have noticed this several times, that i know i am near empty based on mileage but my gas gauge still reads 1/4.i found a recall on-line that states that this car is affected but when i contact nissan na and my dealer, both say, based on my vin, there is no recall.this is what i found online:recall id # 68281 - fuel system, other:storage:fuel gauge systemrecall date:mar 03, 2010model affected:2009 infiniti qx56summary:nissan is recalling certain model year 2005-2009 titan, armada, and infiniti qx56 vehicles. The instrument panel fuel gauge may inaccurately display that the vehicle still has some fuel, typically about one quarter tank, when the fuel tank is empty.consequences:this could cause the vehicle to run out of gas and stall on the highway, which could cause a crash.remedy:dealers will replace the fuel sender unit inside the fuel tank with a new improved sender card. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on march 22, 2010. Owners may contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.potential units affected:340000notes:nissan north america, inc.read more: http://www.motortrend.com/cars/2009/infiniti/qx56/recalls/#ixzz3tlp7mac9http://www.motortrend.com/cars/2009/infiniti/qx56/recalls/
My 2009 infiniti qx56 has a serious issue with the rear suspension that started about a year after i got the car when it was at about 100,000 miles and has gotten worse, even though repair shops and dealer keep telling me it's 'fine'... When traveling down the highway at speeds over 50mph, if i hit or drive over any bump or pothole or dip or uneven pavement, the backend of the car feels like it is going to fishtail or swing out of control and has gotten worse. Now, at slow speeds when i hit any of the aforementioned typical road / pavement issues, the back end sounds like it is slamming down on itself.also, the brakes now sometimes feel like the pedal is "loose" and goes nearly to the floor.if i pump the brake again, it goes back to normal. I have taken the vehicle in and been told the "brakes are just fine" and they act like they don't know what i am talking about.the same with the suspension, except for now there is a "tinging" sound sometimes upon starting or accelerating.the repair shop told me the struts and shocks etc 'are fine', but that there may be an issue with the suspension the dealer acted like they didn't know what i was talking about, but after research here ... I see that this exact problem is common with this vehicle and the 2011, such that there is a recall for the models manufactured nov. 2009 and 2010. All of these vehicles should be fixed by manufacturer. They know this is an issue and even recalled some vehicles. This truly could kill us some day... Brakes don't work or the car'sback-end swings out of the lane and fishtails out of control on the interstate.it happens all the time now. I researched because i need to drive my son to college and knew it didn't feel safe. I found you may already be investigating these issues and i would like a resolution and to have my testimony included.it's dangerous.
The contact owns a 2009 infiniti qx56. After grocery shopping, the contact opened the trunk with the remote. While putting the groceries inside the trunk, the trunk automatically closed without warning. The contact was able to stop the trunk from falling down with her hands.
