MY 2009 INFINITI QX56 HAS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH THE REAR SUSPENSION THAT STARTED ABOUT A YEAR AFTER I GOT THE CAR WHEN IT WAS AT ABOUT 100,000 MILES AND HAS GOTTEN WORSE, EVEN THOUGH REPAIR SHOPS AND DEALER KEEP TELLING ME IT'S 'FINE'... WHEN TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT SPEEDS OVER 50MPH, IF I HIT OR DRIVE OVER ANY BUMP OR POTHOLE OR DIP OR UNEVEN PAVEMENT, THE BACKEND OF THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT IS GOING TO FISHTAIL OR SWING OUT OF CONTROL AND HAS GOTTEN WORSE. NOW, AT SLOW SPEEDS WHEN I HIT ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED TYPICAL ROAD / PAVEMENT ISSUES, THE BACK END SOUNDS LIKE IT IS SLAMMING DOWN ON ITSELF. ALSO, THE BRAKES NOW SOMETIMES FEEL LIKE THE PEDAL IS "LOOSE" AND GOES NEARLY TO THE FLOOR. IF I PUMP THE BRAKE AGAIN, IT GOES BACK TO NORMAL. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE IN AND BEEN TOLD THE "BRAKES ARE JUST FINE" AND THEY ACT LIKE THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT. THE SAME WITH THE SUSPENSION, EXCEPT FOR NOW THERE IS A "TINGING" SOUND SOMETIMES UPON STARTING OR ACCELERATING. TH
