What 2013 Infiniti M37 owners say

Steering

I own a 2013 Infiniti AWD m37xs that I feel is unsafe because of a steering issue or something. The vehicle continually veers from side to side unless the road travelled is perfectly flat without any imperfections and it is not often a road is flat without imperfections.. I have to continual course corrections and it is very easy to overcompensate the steering, which could potentially lead to veering off the road especially if the road is a narrow track/country road, crashing and or crashing into another vehicle. I use to live in nc and md and to be honest, I cannot imagine driving this car in ice or snow. This vehicle is hard to control making it unsafe. I've sent my concerns to baker Infiniti in charleston, sc late yesterday evening after returning from a road trip and feared for my life. …

While driving my car on the van wyck expressway and the queensborough bridge in nyc, I noticed that the car steering started pulling and I momentarily lost control of the vehicle for 2-3 seconds. It was if the car started following the change in pavement or the grooves in the road. I was terrified to the point where I had to reduce my speed from 50mph to 25mph and I switched to the outer lanes. Years ago in my 20's I noticed this with my brothers g35, but since I was a new driver I just assumed that since it was a fast car, maybe I couldn't handle it. But as I am now in my 30's and have over 12 years of driving experience behind me, compared with driving Chrysler 300's, altima's, jetta's, passenger vans for work, etc. I am beginning to think that this May be an Infiniti flaw. It would be really great if someone could look into this. …

Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2013 Infiniti M37. The vehicle was a local independent dealer sale. The contact stated that after purchasing the vehicle, the contact was informed by the mechanic that there was a mileage discrepancy. At the time of purchase, the mileage was 80,000. The VIN search by the mechanic indicated that the mileage was 180,000.

About 2 weeks ago my 4was and traction light came on while driving under 35 MPH in my subdivision in a straight line and nothing seems to fix it, now on wet roads car feels loose in the rear. I have heard lots of complaints about this system and feel it is a safety concern and should be a recall. Thanks

Air bags

In December, 2022, the airbag warning light activated. AT a cost to us of over $1500, the Infiniti dealer replaced the failed sensor. What we did not know is that this did not fix the problem and the air bag on the passenger side would never have deployed in the event of an accident. In November, 2023, the airbag warning light again activated. It turns out that the seat assembly had actually failed of which we were unaware. This is a very expensive repair to a part that should never have failed in the first place. After significant discussions with Infiniti, they did decide to cover the cost of the seat assembly itself but not the labor to install it (another $800). At this time, we are still unclear as to whether this will actually solve the problem. …

Dec 2022

The airbag control module failed on this car which has under 25000 miles on it. The airbag would not have deployed if the car was in an accident and insurance claims would have been void so we had no choice but to immediately replace the module at a cost of over $2,000. The dealer inspected and confirmed that this was the case (and also that they have seen it happen on other Infinity's). The warning light was the first indication of the problem and we immediately took it to the dealer who replaced it. We can understand mechanical failures in an older car but it seems ridiculous that this vital piece of safety equipment would fail on a car with very low mileage and we have never had a car where the airbag system failed.
