RUNNING BOARDS ARE COMPLETELY RUSTED, THEY WILL EITHER FALL OFF WHILE DRIVING AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR AN UNSUSPECTING PERSON COULD BE RELYING ON THEM TO ENTER THE SUV AND HURT THEM SELVES. THE SUV WAS WELL TAKEN CARE OF, 1 OWNER, AND THE FRAME RAILS AND CHASSIS ARE CONSIDERABLY RUST FREE. HOW COME THESE ARE IN SUCH BAD CONDITION? WHY DON'T INFINITI HAVE REPLACEMENTS FOR THEM ALONE AND NOT THE WHOLE RUNNING BOARD FOR OVER $1300 PER SIDE! THAT'S INSANE AND NO ONE IS GOING TO PAY THAT FOR A 11+ YEAR OLD SUV! *TR

THERE IS A PULSING FEEL IN THE BRAKES. HAVE CHECKED ONLINE AND REALIZED THAT IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ENOUGH COMPLAINT BY OTHER OWNERS. ON HARD STOPS THE PUSH BACK BY THE PEDAL IS HARD ENOUGH THAT THE BRAKES LOCKUP INTERMITTENTLY. THIS IS DIFFERENT FROM THE PULSING FEEL OF THE ANTI-LOCK SYSTEM. IT FEELS AS THOUGH THE ROTORS ARE WARPED. IT IS FELT IN THE STEERING WHEEL ALSO, AND INCREASINGLY IN THE VEHICLE IN NORMAL DRIVING WITHOUT APPLYING THE BRAKES. IT IS NOT THE TIRES WHICH ARE FASTIDIOUSLY KEPT NEW OMI. NO INCIDENT YET BUT I BELIEVE THERE IS A TREND THAT NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. *TR
