What owners wrote
On mildly rutted highway surfaces, such as I-5 and I405, vehicle jerks to the left and right, requiring aggressive steering wheel management to keep the car in the proper lane of travel. On heavily worn surfaces, like I-90 in spokane, the car will jerk hard enough to the left and right to swerve into the next lane on either side. Dealer says this is a common complaint on m35x (all wheel drive) only. Was advised by infiniti dealer to increase tire air pressure to 37psi front and 33psi rear.
Vehicle tramlines, causing the steering to become erratic. New tires and alignment do no fix this issue. It is related to the steering component.
