 I am having 'accelerator lag'; many times when i try to accelerate the car from a stop, it will move very slow. this is very dangerous when i am pulling out in fast traffic. i tried to have this repaired at my dealer, but they said they had no fix for this.

 My brand new ex35 infinity adaptive and standard cruise control (acc)crashed (quit working) on me 4x in the first 2 months i owned the car. in addition during that period when the adaptive cruise control worked, it did not work fully or properly. finally, infiniti declared a recall for the crashing acc and purportedly fixed it on 01/20/10. however, after the fix it became evident that a safety warning feature of the that chimes and flashes when another car cuts in between you and the car in front. this feature existed on the 2010 ex35 before the fix, is described in the ex35 manual and worked on my previous car (a 2008 fx35) that had acc. infiniti's response is that this feature is no longer part of the system and if the manual states otherwise, their 2010 ex35 manual is wrong.
