I read the title of this thread in George Lopez's voice. The one he uses when he's acting extra Mexican. Haha

The first thing to check is the individual cells in your battery.

Use a battery hydrometer

Then check the positive and negative cable connections with a voltmeter

How old is your battery?

Any corrosion on the battery terminals or cables?

I see you've started three different threads.

If you don't have the ability to use a voltmeter and follow instructions in the FSM I would suggest you have your vehicle put on a flatbed to the nearest Infiniti dealer to have them find the root cause of your problem.
If you are a AAA member there is no charge.
If you are not a AAA member you should probably join immediately.
Yes it is going to cost some money but what good is a vehicle that doesn't start.
It is not unusual to have a one year old battery fail
Battery terminals that look good mean nothing and sending photos is a waste of time.
You need to do logical testing or pay someone qualified to do it for you.
Being cheap about it may end up costing you more in the end.
If you did something to your vehicle prior to having this problem, undo it.

Good luck
