Tl* the contact owns a 2018 infiniti q60. While driving approximately 60 MPH, the contact drove over black ice and lost control of the vehicle. The vehicle struck the median on the highway. None of the frontal or side air bags deployed. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed by the insurance company to a body shop. The contact was taken to the hospital by a family relative, treated for his injuries, and released. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing.
I was driving on the freeway saw something on my lane so I try to avoid it by changing lane but my wheels locked and power steering sign came on so I ended up driving over an object. I forced my wheel to the emergency lane safely after vehicles zooming by me on both lanes and to a complete stop. Shut the vehicle off, exited the vehicle to see scratches on my bumper. It was rather hard for me to force the wheel due to my medical disability from the military.
My car is brand new and was purchased on 12/26/2017. 12/27: after a 3+hour drive w/ 350~ miles on the car at this point, an indicator light with a steering wheel and exclamation point lit up the dash and the steering wheel locked up and became extremely hard to turn. I pulled over turned my car off and waited about 5 minutes and crank it back up and the light was gone.
Was told my service advisor that I need new tires at less than 20,000 despite having them rotated, balanced and/or aligned on a regular basis at dealer. Ride is extremely loud and tires sway erratically at slightest deviation in pavement. Reviews state that these tires often bubble up and explode causing a serious safety issue.
