Verbatim excerpts from NHTSA complaints, by component

Electrical system

5 reports
“This vehicle has been to the dealership five times for the car alarm will randomly go off. This issue is hard to replicate. In the final time that I took it to the dealer, I had a rental car and what we found is that when the car is parked and it’s locked and you pull in next to it. The car alarm will go off the car was never touched. It just goes off. does it go off in that situation every single time no. So it’s at the point where if the alarm goes off, it doesn’t mean anything to me. There is no concern. It’s like the boy who cried wolf this car just the alarm will just go off anytime it’s locked and in a parking lot or just sitting by itself I have asked Infinity corporate to get involved and they said that they have done everything to help and they are unable to fix the problem”
