Hey all, my mom called me today on her drive to work about a problem with her 2012 m37 with around 1500 miles on it, she described service maintenance soon came up on the LCD screen and she said the car is shaking and there is a huge lack of power and when she has foot on brake its fine but idling forward it starts shaking...I didn't have time to call Infiniti today but does anybody have any ideas of what the problem could be? Thanks

 

According to our service advisors, there are no known defects that is causing this, however since it's this early and under warranty take it in immediately, we have a salesman here who identified an M that didn't want to accelerate, but no check engine light, please have it seen immediately, and if possible, report back here, so we can see what the issue was!

 

Ok thanks, yeah I'll try to call my local service dept first thing tomorrow, but I'm gonna drive it first thing when I get home to try to figure it out if it could be anything simple

 

Check the gas cap..

 

lmao...um...glad to know this wasnt a defect of any kind...um..rats chewed through some of the electrical wiring in the car causing the problem

 

wow..... yep those critters love wiring, seen a Q45 come in one time, needed ALL new vacuum hoses it was like 500$ worth of hoses..... darn those little creatures! Does warranty cover Varments?

 

Lol unfortunately not, it was like $1k for new wiring and they put mothballs in the engine bay for free lmao

 

There is some spray you can buy too, it's like Rats-Off or something, supposed to make them not chew on it, because it's nasty.... might look into that also
