After the repair was completed, the driver assistance package options and the moving object detection at the front no longer works. It has been at the collision center and infiniti dealership for over 2 months and they can not figure out the cause of the malfunction. All the infiniti dealership has done was said the computer does not show an error.

First off there is a safety bulletin already released. And I know 2 others who own this vehicle who have the exact same issues. It's time to actually take care of your clients and fox the drive train issue. Where when driving and turning especially at slow speeds there is a violent vibration that comes from the front of the vehicle. Please take care of your customers. The dealership originally told us this issue would be replaced under recall. Then said sorry it's just a bulletin now.
