Description of the problem | My solenoid switch went bad on me and needed to be replaced, took it to the infiniti dealership and they corrected the problem so i thought until oct 13 when i kept hearing this noise coming from my hook like a squealing noise.. Took it back to the dealership and found out it was the timing chain, which i was told had nothing to do with the solenoid switch that was previously fixed.. Found out that was a lie and that they go hand in hand with each other and they wanted to charge me 1400 dollars just to look at the problem and another 2,000 to fix the issue, well it turns out that infiniti already knew that this was a problem with the solenoid being to small to pump the required old to where its suppose to go and never did a recall or anything but they are trying to say if its out of warranty than they are not required to fix it, this is a safety hazard if not replaced by infiniti this will cause the solenoid switch to go bad then the timing chain, and then your engine will blow up on you.. This should be a recall issue for infiniti to fix because this will be very costly to someone and it shouldn't be... |
