The rear passenger door stopped working , a month later the rear drivers door stopped working, 2 weeks later the drivers door stopped working on my 1997 infiniti j30 (which i purchased new, only 107,000 miles on it).Now the only door that works is the front passenger door. There are no blown fuses. It seems there is a problem with the actuator that electronically opens and closes the mechanism. If the other door fails , i will not be able to enter or exit the vehicle. If this should happen while i am driving the vehicle, it could be life threatening. *tr

While making a left turn out of a business onto highway 59 south , into oncoming traffic. It was raining, i had turned on my turn signal and i was turning on my wipers, as i turned my my windsheild wiper the knob caught inside my steering wheel locking me from turning. I had oncoming traffic coming at me so i yanked real hard and broke the wiper knob.I do not know how that could have happened. I would like to kow if anyone else has had that type of problem. If the knob had not broken, i would have been broad sided by two lanes of oncoming traffic. Talk about weak knees...I have not reapired yet, afraid it may happen again.

When i turned the key to start my car that morning the battery blew up. It had enough force that it damaged my hood. When i told my service advisor about it she didn't sound at all suprised. She merely told me that the battery must have gotten too dry. Later i told her that the battery shouldn't have exploded like that even if it was dry. I said i had never known anyone who had a bottery blow up like that, and she said "oh, it happens all the time." she went on to tell me that they have "about one per week." this seems extremely dangerous to me because someone could have been severely injured if they had their face anywhere close to that battery when i turned the ignition. *ak
