I WANT TO KNOW DID YOUR HAVE A RECALL ON THE 2000 I30. EVERYBODY I TALKED TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. AND PLUS I READ ABOUT IT COULD BE A MALFUNCTION WITH THE 2000 I30INFINITI. CARS. *TR”

“I HAVE A WELL MAINTAINED 2000 INFINITI I30 WITH 168,000 MILES . THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. APPROXIMATELY 2009 THE LOWER RADIATOR SUPPORT (FRONT CROSS FRAME TIE BAR) STARTED TO RUST NEAR THE CENTER OF THIS BOXED FRAME MEMBER. PORTIONS OF THE TOP AND FRONT SIDE OF THIS FRAME MEMBER RUSTED THROUGH COMPLETELY SOME TIME IN 2011. THE HOOD LATCH MECHANISM AND HORN ARE FASTENED TO A VERTICAL STEEL SUPPORT THAT IS BOLTED TO THE FRONT OF THIS FRAME MEMBER, JUST LEFT OF THE RUST PERFORATION. I INTEND TO DRIVE THIS CAR FOR MANY MORE YEARS AS WE HAVE IN THE PAST WITH SEVERAL OTHER CARS IF THIS DOES NOT BECOME A SAFETY PROBLEM, . I WILL NEED TO HAVE THE FRONT FRAME TIE BAR REPAIRED IF POSSIBLE TO AVOID FUTURE HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS (IE. HOOD POPPING OPEN WHILE DRIVING AND/OR UNSTABLE FRONT END CONTROL). THIS RUST PERFORATION MORE THAN LIKELY LESSENS THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE CAR IN A FRONT END COLLISION. THIS APPEARS TO BE A WIDELY KNOWN SAFETY PROBLEM ON VARIOUS NISSAN AUTOS. EVEN IF NISSAN IS NOT REQUIRED TO RECALL THESE AUTOS FOR INSPECTION AND REPAIR, THEY SHOULD AT LEAST NOTIFY OWNERS OF THE POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUES AND POSSIBLE MECHANICAL FIXES THAT…”

“TL*- THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 INFINITI I30. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED THE CONTACT A SENSOR OR A COIL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALERSHIP MADE THE REPAIRS. THERE WAS ANOTHER OCCURRENCE APPROXIMATELY 3 YEARS LATER. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE COIL PACK. THREE MONTHS LATER THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO ROUGH IDLE. THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED THE CONTACT THIS WAS A NORMAL OCCURRENCE, AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO IMPROVE IDLING. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 43,000. *AK THE CONSUMER STATES "SES" TSB OR RECALL INFORMATION WAS HIDDEN FROM CONSUMER AND DENIED OF SUCH. THE CONSUMER PROVIDED VARIOUS INVOICES OF DIAGNOSTICS AND REPAIRS.

“DRIVE TO GAS STATION A MILE AWAY WAS A DANGEROUS EXPERIENCE, THE ISSUE I THOUGHT WAS A TIRE BLOWN OUT HAS BEEN INSPECTED BY LOCAL POLICE OFFICER UPON OCCURRENCE AND DETERMINED IT IS SUSPENSION DEFECT. RIGHT REAR AXLE IS WHERE THE LOUD GRINDING STARTED”

“WHILE WORKING UNDER MY CAR, I NOTICED THAT THE SUPPORT STRUCTURE UNDER THE RADIATOR IS RUSTING BADLY AND CAN BE MOVED BY HAND. THIS IS NOT SAFE AND APPEARS TO BE A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I CAME ACROSS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME MODEL OF NISSAN INFINITI. I FEEL THAT SINCE THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE, THE COMPANY SHOULD WARN OWNERS AND RECALL THE VEHICLES FOR REPAIR AT NO COST TO THE OWNERS. THIS IS PREMATURE RUSTING AND APPEARS TO BE VITAL TO THE ENGINE STABILITY AS WELL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN MOTION BUT I THINK THAT IS WHAT I HEAR RATTLING WHEN ENCOUNTERING BUMPS.”

“THE PASSENGER FRONT TIRE BLEW, THE CAR THEN LOCKED UP, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP, THE CAR SPED OUT OF CONTROL (POLICE ESTIMATED UP TO 70 MILES PER HOUR), THE CAR RAN INTO A BRICK BUILDING. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY! I WOKE UP SURROUNDED BY A CROWD OF PEOPLE. ALTHOUGH, I PRESSED THE BRAKES TO THE FLOOR, AND THERE WERE BLACK MARKS ON THE PARKING LOT LEADING UP TO THE CAR INSIDE THE BRICK BUILDING, THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE, OUT OF CONTROL.”
