What owners wrote
The contact owns a 2017 Infiniti Q50. The contact stated that while his son was driving at approximately 45 mph, the vehicle shut off without warning. Due to the failure, his son lost complete control of the vehicle and drove into a ditch. The air bags did not deploy. The contact's son was not injured as a result of the accident and did not seek medical treatment. The police were not called to the scene and a report was not filed.
While driving on a highway (I95, speed 55 MPH) the engine suddenly died, was able to pull over and restart the engine, which now made a terrible mechanic noise. Could drive off to a smaller road where the engine stalled again. Had to tow the car to the dealer, who advised that the engine needed to be changed. Two weeks later the engine was finally changed but now this time they stated that the turbos needed to be changed.
