I received a recall notice in october indicating that my vehicle IS not safe and there IS the possibility of metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants causing serious injury or death. My families life and safety IS in jeopardy. My vehicle IS my primary mode of transportation and used for transportation to/from work and to transport my family. I have been patient, not allowing passengers in my front seat for months. it IS now the end of february, over five months have passed and nothing has been done to correct the life threatening defect in my car. This IS not acceptable! Infiniti has disregarded the safety of my family by the lack of action taken in this matter. this will influence future purchasing decisions and the possibility of pursuing a class action law suit.

River's seat collapsed and came off tracks while car was being driven. Defective welds (as stated by infiniti certified dealer service center) holding seat assembly determined to be cause. Infiniti diagnosis; seat track broken. Requiring replacement of front adjuster assembly; part # 87450-eh00a. Cost of part $~1000 to install; $~300. This IS a nissan/infiniti problem reported previously to nhtsa on numerous occasions. Dealer service department stats that weld failure causes seat to collapse. Problem IS longstanding, well documented, and known to infiniti. In spite of this, no remediation, other than repair at owner's expense, has been offered by infiniti. This weld failure IS a serious safety related matter that IS not the result of abuse, maintenance neglect, or overstress to seat or seat assembly. The has been acknowledged by repair personnel at dealership that carried out the repair.

Michelin pilot sport as plus are starting to fall apart in the tread area. Michelin tire salesman informed me that they were "chunking" a condition that has been noted on cars brought in for evaluation of the tires. tires are actually falling apart in the tread area and could lead to premature blowouts or massive change of balance which can result in loss of life if being driven by an unsuspecting driver. I have reported this to michelin and they tell me there IS no defect in the tire, but if I want to change the tires out, I have to pay for the amount of wear. wear varies now across these tires since they are loosing rubber in the tread area thus shortening the life of the tire. these tires are a real safety concern. *tr

My 2007 infiniti M45 suddenly lost all electrical power throughout the vehicle resulting in the engine stalling which potentially could have resulted in a crash. the vehicle was immediately towed to passport infiniti of alexandria for diagnosis and repair. the diagnostic test revealed a failed intelligent power distribution module, ipdm which after in-depth research, has proven to be faulty in multiple nissan & infiniti vehicles ranging from years 2004 - 2006. there are current manufacture recalls on several nissan vehicles to replace faulty ipdm's and it IS my belief that the M45 IS affected likewise. 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 worker that there IS no reported evidence of ipdm failure in the 2007 infiniti M45 and as a consumer I have to absorb all cost to get the vehicle repaired and returned back to full operational status. the preliminary dealer assessment suggests replacing the ipdm at a very expensive $1300.00 price tag with a 12 month or 12K warranty. according to the dealer service manager, the cost could be more depending on possible other identified electrical issues that my have triggered the ipdm failure.

- Desiccated Air Bag Inflator Rupture
From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant…
From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 Blomquist Report at www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.gov/files/documents/expert_report-hrblomquist.pdf.Consequently, all frontal inflators using propellant 2004 that do not contain a "desiccant" (a substance that traps and holds moisture) in US vehicles are under recall. These "non-desiccated" inflators either have been or are required to be replaced.In some cases, the remedy part for these recalled inflators was, or will be, an inflator using either propellant 2004 or 2004L that does contain a desiccant. None of these "desiccated" remedy parts (which were installed in older model year vehicles) are currently under recall for a degradation concern. Certain subsets of desiccated PSAN inflators using propellant 2004 for use as original equipment, however, have been recalled for a degradation concern. All Takata inflators produced with propellant 2004L contain desiccant, and none of these desiccated inflators using propellant 2004L are under recall for a degradation concern. There have been no reported field ruptures in any non-recalled desiccated PSAN inflators.It is understood that desiccants fully saturate at some threshold, at which point any additional moisture will not be captured. This means the degradation process observed in non-desiccated inflators using propellant 2004 may also occur in non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004, assuming additional moisture enters the inflator and high temperature cycling occurs. Based on available information, desiccant saturation can occur within the first five years in the worst environments, and the time required for full saturation is affected by multiple factors. While no present safety risk has been identified, further work is needed to evaluate the future risk of non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004.Three entities -- Takata (now known as TK Global), the Independent Testing Coalition, and Exponent -- have been studying the long-term behavior of Takata desiccated PSAN inflators using propellant 2004L (as well as 2004) in the presence of moisture and temperature cycling. The research efforts, which include development of predictive modeling techniques and field sample analysis, are ongoing. To date, none of the researchers have identified field evidence showing that propellant 2004L is undergoing a degradation process that leads to aggressive deployment and potential rupture. However, the time in service of such inflators remains short compared to that of the inflators using propellant 2004. Further study is needed to assess the long-term safety of desiccated inflators using propellant 2004L.The Office of Defects Investigation is opening this investigation to examine whether a safety defect related to propellant degradation exists in non-recalled desiccated PSAN frontal inflators manufactured by Takata. This investigation will require extensive information on Takata production processes and surveys of inflators in the field. Lists of recall actions that may have used desiccated PSAN inflators as remedy parts, as well as the makes and models originally manufactured with them, is available with the downloadable version of this document (see nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=EA21002 -- note this information is subject to change/revision as the investigation proceeds). This investigation does not supersede EA15-001, which remains open.
