WTF!! Throttle body replacement!
@ 27K So I was getting off the freeway, hauling ***.. make the left turn @ about 50-55 and the car just goes non-responsive!! Everything shuts off including of course power steering!! Anyhow, long story short.. I called Infiniti. They're gonna take a look, but they've been having a lot of people come back with same problem. Anyone been through this yet?? I'm if Nor Cal.. Bay Area.

I had mine replaced at 7k. I brought my car in for an oil change and when i got the car back, i noticed the "Service Engine Soon" light on and let the service writer know. They took the car back and they looked up the code. Said the TB needed to be replaced. Also said this was a common problem and it's a fairly easy fix. Something goes weird with the sensors.
My engine is stock, BTW. So it's not mods that cause it.
I'm just happy it happened while at the dealer and not while driving.

Good to know. I dropped my G off late afternoon yestersday. I explained the problem to the guys their resoponse was "can YOU duplicate the problem"? I thought to myself.. sure let me kill myself in the process. Anyhow, they seem shocked and my discovery.. they'd get back to me when they found something.
