Some Infiniti QX4 owners report experiencing battery drain issues after two days of inactivity, despite no visible fuse problems. This problem may be attributed to a parasitic draw caused by faulty electric consumers, such as a malfunctioning door lock or trunk lock switch, which can lead to the battery losing charge over time. Additionally, a faulty alternator may not adequately charge the battery while the vehicle is running, contributing to the drain. Human error, such as forgetting to turn off lights or accessories, can also play a role in slowly depleting the battery. To address these concerns, owners are advised to have a mechanic check for parasitic draws, inspect the alternator for proper functionality, and review all electrical consumers to ensure they are not inadvertently draining the battery. Taking these steps can help maintain the operational integrity of the Infiniti QX4 and ensure the battery retains its charge effectively.
