CHECK SAYS ALL HAVE BEEN FIXED BY PREVIOUS OWNER. THE SAME PROBLEMS ARE HAPPENING AGAIN. YOU SHOULD DO ANOTHER RECALL

The ignition switch will not return to selection 3 after cranking.

The car engine cuts off / stalls while driving. This has happened multiple times. When driving on highway, the engine stops running, the car loses all power, and it is very difficult to restart the car. I had the car inspected and the local mechanic stated the crankshaft sensor/ camshaft censor is not working properly and he believed this was on recall, but Infiniti stated that my car is not covered. This is extremely dangerous - call stalls in the middle of the road with no power at all.

The contact owns a 2003 Infiniti. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds with the accelerator pedal was depressed, the transmission lever shifted inadvertently into neutral(N) for several few seconds and then remained in drive(D). The contact stated that the check engine, automatic transmission, and ABS warning lights were illuminated. Additionally, the contact stated that there was a constant gasoline odor present inside and outside of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed.

The failure mileage was 98,515.

Complete center console not working. Stuck on auto a/c with no way to defrost windshield and it was raining. No modes work, no cd, no radio, no heat, no defrost- front or rear. I have already had this happen before, replaced motherboard and it cost me 1200.00 and that was in 2011. Now it has happened again. This is very unsafe. I had my children with me and it started raining and we couldnt get the windshield or rear to defrost so I couldnt see. Why arent all 2003's covered under the recall?????

Twice while driving approximately 70 mph on the freeway, the engine shut off without warning and the service engine soon warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle coasted. There was no shoulder to pull over to. I put it in neutral and it restarted. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the camshaft and crank sensor failed. I looked online and saw a recall for the cam shaft and crank sensors for the, 2003 Infiniti G35. However, when I called, I was told that my vin was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was 230,000.

SOMETIMES, THE CAR WON'T START BECUASE OF THE SAME ISSUE. HOWEVER, MY LOCAL INFINITI DEALER AND THE INFINITI CUSTOMER SERVICE LINE HAVE BOTH INFORMED ME THAT THEY CANNOT FIX THIS ISSUE BECUASE MY VIN WAS NOT LISTED ON THAT RECALL. I BOUGHT THIS CAR AROUND 6-7 YEARS AGO, SO I WOULD NOT HAVE EVEN BEEN ABLE TO TAKE IT IN TO GET FIXED SINCE THEY NOTED IT WAS ONLY 2003 FOR A CERTAIN TIME. THIS JUST RECENTLY STARTED HAPPENING A FEW MONTHS AGO, AND I FINALLY FOUND THE EXACT ISSUE ON YOUR WEBSITE. I VERIFIED THAT MY CARS COMPUTER NOTED THAT THOSE SPECIFIC SENSORS ARE BAD! I'M VERY UPSET WITH INFINITI NOT EVEN CARING TO HELP ONE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS FOR A MAJOR SAFETY AND LIABILITY ISSUE!

PLEASE HELP!

BURNS OIL AT 5 QUARTS A WEEK OR MORE. PISTON RINGS ARE DEFECTIVE. COMMON FOR THIS CAR I'VE READ AND THERE WAS A RECALL THAT INFINITI ISSUED BUT THIS HAS NOT INCLUDED MY VEHICLE. SUSPENSION ALSO WEARS DOWN BRAND NEW TIRES IN LESS THAN 3 MONTHS. MY BOYFRIEND HAS THE EXACT SAME CAR AND THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH HIS VEHICLE ALSO.

MY CAR SEAT MOVED ALL THE FORWARD WHILE DRIVING TO WORK IN DENVER METRO'BENCH AND BACK SUPPORT BOTH PUSHED ME A FEW INCHES FROM THE STEERING WHEEL. I HAD TO MOVE MY LEG WITH MY HAND TO REACH THE BRAKE PEDAL. ONE WEEK LATER, MY CAR HORN BEGAN BEEPING AND WOULD NOT STOP WHILE DRIVING. MY VDC AND BRAKE LIGHTS NOW STAY ON CONSTANTLY BECAUSE THE ANTI SKID DOES NOT WORK'I ALMOST WRECKED ON A SNOWY HIGHWAY. THE FRONT TIRES WEAR EXPONENTIALLY FASTER THAN THE BACK TIRES. I HAD BLOWOUTS TWO SEPARATE TIMES ON THE INTERSTATE. THE FRONT WINDOWS ARE NOW GLUED SHUT BECAUSE THEY ROLL DOWN ON THEIR OWN. THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON NOW TOO. I REALIZE IT'S AN OLD CAR; I BOUGHT IT FOR $8,000 4 YEARS AGO WHEN IT HAD ~95,000 MILES. NOW IT HAS ~140,000. THE LEVEL OF QUICK DECLINE IS TRULY FRIGHTENING THOUGH. I DON'T DRIVE MY 2003 INFINIT G35 ANY MORE AND AM APPREHENSIVE TO SELL IT TO ANYONE ELSE. THE CAR I LOVED IS NOW LIKE DRIVING A HORROR MOVIE.

LOST CONTROL OF CAR ON ICE GOING 55, CAR WENT AIRBORNE 70 FEET CAME DOWN HIT A TRUCK, CAR WAS TOTALED. PASSENGER AIRBAG WENT OFF BUT DRIVERS DID NOT DEPLOY, SUFFERED A CONCUSSION, HIT HEAD ON STEERING WHEEL.

THE CONTACT WAS UNCERTAIN IF THE VEHICLE MAY BE REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 03V455000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 136,000.

THE CAR WON'T BACK UP WHEN IT'S ON REVERSE, SOMETIMES IT WON'T MOVE AT ALL EVEN WHEN IT'S ON DRIVE.

I HAVE REPLACED THE CAM POSITION SENSOR AND THE CRANK SENSOR AND MY CAR CONTINUES TO STALL CAUSING THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT TO APPEAR WITH A LOSS OF POWER AND INTERMITTENT STALLING. INFINITI HAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM (SERVICE BULLETIN: NHTSA: 03V455000 CAM SHAFT SENSOR DEFECTIVE) BUT THEY SAY MY CAR IS NOT INCLUDED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE CAR LOOSES POWER AND STALLS INTERMITTENTLY. THE PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION USUALLY AT HIGHWAY SPEED WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED.

AIRBAG LIGHT: THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IN THE DASHBOARD IS FLASHING. THE REASON I AM BRINGING THIS UP IS BECAUSE THE OWNER'S MANUAL FROM INFINITI STATES THAT WHEN THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IS FLASHING, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE AIRBAGS MAY NOT DEPLOY IF INVOLVED IN A CRASH. I HAVE SEARCHED ON INFINITI AND G35 FORUMS AND THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG OWNERS. IT ALSO APPEARS AS THOUGH INFINITI WILL NOT COVER REPAIRS EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM FOR OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES. LUCKILY THERE HAS BEEN NO INCIDENT WITH MY CAR YET AND I INTEND TO GET IT FIXED SO THAT I HAVE MY AIRBAGS OPERATIONAL IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. I WANTED TO KNOW WHAT NHTSA RECOMMENDS WHEN I TAKE MY CAR INTO A AN AUTHORIZED INFINITI/NISSAN SERVICE CENTER? CAN I ASK FOR THE REPAIR COSTS TO BE COVERED BY INFINITI/NISSAN SINCE THIS APPEARS TO BE A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE RENDERING MY VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE IF LEFT UN-REPAIRED. I HAVE TRIED TO DO A SOFT RESET OF THE SYSTEM AS DESCRIBED IN A NUMBER OF INFINITI/NISSAN FORUMS AND WHILE THIS INITIALLY HELPED ABOUT 12 TO 18 MONTHS AGO, THE PROBLEM HAS RESURFACED AS FLASHING LIGHT HAS RETURNED AND THE SOFT RESET NO LONGER WORKS.

TWICE NOW, THE VEHICLE HAS COMPLETELY DIED WHILE IN MOTION, ONCE WHILE BACKING OUT OF A DRIVEWAY, ANOTHER TIME WHILE DRIVING. TOOK TO A MECHANIC (NOT DEALER MECHANIC) WHO SAID IT WAS THE CAM SHAFT AND CRANK SENSORS. I LOOKED ONLINE AND SAW THAT THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS PART FOR THIS YEAR, 2003 FOR INFINITI G35. YET WHEN I CALLED, I WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THIS TO ME SEEMS HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS. MY 17 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING THE CAR AT THE TIMES IT SPONTANEOUSLY DIED. I WAS VERY GLAD THAT SHE WAS NOT ON THE FREEWAY OR SOMEWHERE ELSE BUSY WHEN IT HAPPENED! THIS VEHICLE HAS OTHERWISE BEEN COMPLETELY DEPENDABLE OVER THE PAST 14 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP, TO HAVE IT SPONTANEOUSLY DIE WHILE DRIVING IS VERY FRIGHTENING FOR A DEPENDABLE VEHICLE!

HORN STARTED HONKING AND STAYED ON CONTINUOUSLY I THEN OPEND THE DOOR PUT KEYS IN IGNITION AND TURNED IT AS IF I WAS GOING TO TURN VEHICLE ON AND THEN CAR STOPED HONKING I STARTED THE CAR ON AND HORN NOISE STAYED OFF I PRESSED THE HORN AND IT HONKED AS NORMAL BUT ONCE I TURNED VEHICLE OFF I PRESSED THE HORN AGAIN TO SEE IF CAR WOULD HONK AS NORMAL AND HORN STARTED HONKING AGAIN CONTINUOUSLY STAYED ON UNTIL I AGAIN TURNED KEYS IN IGNITION SWITCH ON AND CAR STOPPED HONKING KEEPS DOING THIS CANT SEEM TO FIND THE PROBLEM

AUDIO "FINISHER" BOARD SHORTS OUT, THE RADIO IS COMPROMISED BUT THE SAFETY ISSUE IS THAT THE HEATER CONTROLS SWITCH TO HIGH, AND ON FLOOR HEATER VENTS.

MY SLIP LIGHT AND VCT LIGHT HAS CAME ON IN MY 2003 INFINITI G35 AND ALSO THE EBRAKE LIGHT AND NON OF THEM WILL GO OFFF. I RECENTLY HYDRO PLANED IN THE RAIN DUE NOT BEING ABLE TO TURN MY TRACTION CONTROL ON ABS DID NOTHING TO STOP MY CAR FROM LOOSING TRACTION THIS WOULD NEVER OF HAPPENED IF MY CAR DID NOT HAVE THESE PROBLEMS. FURTHER LOOKING INTO IT THEY HAVE HAD MADE A TSB TALKING ABOUT HOW THE ABS AND ANTI WHEEL LOCK MAY MALFUNCTION. I WAS IN A 5 CAR PILE UP AND ALMOST DIED. IF MY TRACTION CONTROL WAS ABLE TO BE TURNED ON WITCH IT WOULDN'T LET ME I WOULD NOT OF HYDRO PLANED MY WHOLE BACK END JUST SWUNG FORWARD OUT OF NOWHERE PEOPLE THOUGH SOMEONE IN MY CAR PULLED MY EBRAKE THE WAY THE BACK END JUST SWUNG FORWARD. BOTH THE SLIP LIGHT AND THE VCT LIGHT REMAINED ON ALONG WITH MY EBRAKE LIGHT. I DRIVE MY CAR LIKE A BABY AND TO BARLEY PUSH THE GAS SHOULD NOT RESULT IN MY BACK END SWINGING FORWARD RESULTING IN COMPLETELY WRECHING MY CAR ALONG WITH 4 OTHER DRIVERS. I FEEL INFINITI IS DEFINITELY RELIABLE AND SHOULD OF RECALLED THESE PARTS DUE TO PUTTING PEOPLE IN DANGER INSTEAD OF MAKING IT A TSB LIKE ITS NOT A BIG DEAL. I AM ALSO NOT THE ONLY ONE IV FOUND A FEW PEOPLE THAT CRASHED THERE CAR DUE TO RAINY WETHER AND THE TRACTION CONTROL NOT WANTING TO TURN ON. I WAS ON THE FREEWAY DOING ABOUT 60 TO 65. IF I NEW INFINITI HAD SO MANY PROBLEMS I WOULD NOT OF PURCHASED ONE 77 BULLETINS AND AFTER READING ABOUT ALL THE PROBLEMS THE 2003 HAD AND ALL THE RECALLED PARTS I WOULD NOT OF PURCHASED IT AND PUT MY LIFE AT RISK. I FEEL INFINITI SHOULD BE RELIABLE IT'S COMMEN SENSE TO KNOW THAT FIRST HAND NOT FIXING THOSE PROBLEMS WOULD LEAD TO SERIOUS INJURIES AND I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE. LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK I WILL BE EMAILING INFINITI TO. IT MAY NOT BE A RECALLED PART BUT IT' PUT ME AND EVERYONE ELSE ON THE FREEWAY AT RISK AND TOTALED MY CAR. BELLOW IS SOMEONE WHO ALSO HAD THE ISSUE
