  SEATS

  THE CHILD SEAT VEHICLE LATCH ANCHORS ARE PRACTICALLY INACCESSIBLE. THE ANCHORS ARE POSITIONED UNDER THE SEAT CAUSING GREAT DIFFICULTY IN ATTACHING THE CHILD SEAT TO THE BRACKETS. THIS HAS CAUSED INJURY TO THE PERSON ATTEMPTING TO ATTACH THE LATCH TO THE ANCHOR. ALSO IT HAS RESULTED IN IMPROPERLY SECURING THE CHILD SEAT. IT SEEMS TO BE A FACTORY DEFECT, WHEREAS THE ANCHOR WHICH IS SHAPED LIKE AN "L" BRACKET WAS INSTALLED UPSIDE DOWN. THE LOCATION OF THESE ANCHORS ARE UNDER THE SEAT RATHER THAN BETWEEN THE GAP OF THE SEAT CUSHION AND THE BACK CUSHION ARE VERY UNREASONABLE TO USE. ATTEMPTING TO UTILIZE THE ANCHOR HAS CAUSED UNDUE AMOUNT OF TIME, STRESS AND INJURY. I HAVE REPORTED THIS ISSUE TO THE DEALER.

  ENGINE

  THE CAR STARTED NORMALLY AND AFTER DRIVING ABOUT A QUARTER OF A MILE I WAS SUDDENLY COASTING WITHOUT POWER. THE ENGINE JUST QUIT. WITHOUT POWER STEERING AND BRAKES I WAS STILL ABLE TO GUIDE IT TO THE CURB AND COME TO A SAFE STOP. WHAT I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE CAR IT ACTED AS IF THE BATTERY DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO TURN OVER THE ENGINE, ALTHOUGH LIGHTS, HORN AND RADIO STILL WORKED FINE. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT AND AFTER WEEK OF UNSUCCESSFUL TROUBLESHOOTING THE INFINITI REPS GOT INVOLVED. WHEN THE OIL PAN WAS REMOVED THEY FOUND NUMEROUS PIECES OF METAL OF VARYING SIZES AS IF SOMETHING IN THE ENGINE HAD DISINTEGRATED. IF THEY KNOW WHAT CAUSED IT THEY HAVEN;T TOLD ME, AND I SINCE I HAD LEASED IT JUST TWO WEEKS PRIOR I'VE ASKED FOR A NEW VEHICLE RATHER THAN TO HAVE THE ENGINE IN THIS ONE REPLACED. AS OF TODAY, NEARLY 2 WEEKS AFTER THE INCIDENT, I AM STILL AWAITING A DECISION. LUCKILY I WAS ON A SIDE STREET WHEN THIS OCCURRED. HAD IT HAPPENED MINUTES LATER I WOULD HAVE BEEN ON A HIGH SPEED MULTI-LANE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY AND THE RESULTS COULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC. *TR
