2003 Infiniti G35 Electrical System Problems

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

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?????

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 INFINITI G35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CLIMATE CONTROL FEATURE ON THE VEHICLE WAS INOPERABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT DUE TO THE FAILURE, THE DEFROSTER WAS ALSO INOPERABLE. HOLMAN INFINITI LOCATED AT 577 NJ-38, MAPLE SHADE TOWNSHIP, NJ 08052 WAS CONTACTED BY PHONE AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SUBJECTED TO A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 140,000.*DT*JB

WHILE YOUR DRIVING YOU LOSE CONTROL OF HEATING CONTROLS. IT WAS RAINING AND I HAD TO DEFROST WINDOWS. WELL IT STARTED HEATING THE FLOOR AND I COULD NOT CONTROL WHERE TO DIRECT HEAT. AND NOTE THE RADIO DOESN'T WORK WHEN IT OCCURS AS WELL.

CRANKSHAFT ANGLE SENSOR AND CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR BOTH FAILED CAUSING VEHICLE TO STALL AT LOW RPM'S (ENGINE DIES LOOSING BRAKES AND STEERING). INFINITY RECALL #R3021 HAS THIS PROBLEM YET MY VEHICLE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL FOR SOME REASON. CALLED INFINITY AND THEY WILL NOT HELP ME. WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS? MY COST IS $621.86 REPAIRS AND DIAGNOSIS.

MY INFINITI CLIMATE CONTROL HAS QUIT WORKING WHICH HAS LEFT ME WITH A CAR WITH NO HEAT OR DEFROST UNABLE TO DRIVE IN THE WINTER. THEIR WAS A RECALL ON MANY 2003 G35 BUT I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT MY CAR ISNT COVERED. SEEMS TOO MUCH OF A COINCIDENCE MY CAR IS DOING EXACT COMPLAINT ON MANY OTHER CARS.

THE CHARGER PORT HAD SOME SORT OF MALFUNCTION AND MY CAR WAS BURNED TO THE FRAME. IT WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVE WAY AND HAD BEEN SINCE 8:00 P.M POLICE OFFICERS WHERE COMING IN MY FRONT DOOR AT AROUND 2:00 A.M. MY CAR WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES.

THE COMPLETE CONSOLE LIGHTING HAS GONE OUT IN MY CAR. IT ONLY WORKS WHEN THE EXTERIOR LIGHTS ARE OFF. NOT ABLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND DIFFICULT TO DRIVE DURING DAYLIGHT DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE THE SPEEDOMETER. VERY MUCH A SAFETY ISSUE.

2003 INFINITI G35 AIR-CONDITIONING UNIT SUDDENLY WILL NOT TURN OFF. UNABLE TO TURN ON THE DEFROSTER BECAUSE OF THIS MAKING VISIBILITY POOR AND VERY DANGEROUS AT TIMES. RADIO WILL NOT TURN ON. THIS IS WIDESPREAD PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE BUT NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT.

MY CRANK POSITION SENSOR AND CAM POSITION SENSORS KEEP FAILING CAUSING THE CAR TO KILL WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING IT VERY HARD TO START.

WAS DRIVING MY CAR AND THE AC AND STEREO BUTTON LIGHTS WENT OUT, THE AC WAS THEN STUCK ON FULL BLAST AT 70 DEGREES AND COULD NOT BE SHUT OFF OR CHANGED AND THE STEREO WAS INOPERABLE AS WELL.

'TAMARA RECALL' MY RADIO AND COMPLETE COLUMN TO ADJUST AC WENT OUT. THERE WAS A RECAL FOR MY SAME YEAR AND MODEL VEHICLE, BUT INFINITI IS SAYING MY VIN ISN'T COVERED. I TOOK THE STEPS TO HAVE THE RECALL MY FIXED BY A LICENSED MECHANIC AND STILL NOTHING WORKS. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS I HAVE A YOUNG CHILD AND THE CAR ONLY BLOWS HEAT. IN CA IT IT STILL VERY HOT RIGHT NOW AND CANNOT AFFORD ANOTHER VEHICLE.

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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 INFINITI G35. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAS RESTARTED. THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED (JIM LUPIENT INFINITI, 7200 WAYZATA BLVD, BURNSVILLE, MN, 763-546-5577) AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE FAILURE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 150,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 INFINTI G35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE TRAVELING VARIOUS SPEEDS AND THE CHECK ENGINE, BRAKE, AND VDC OFF WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE INFINITI OF NORWOOD DEALER (866 PROVIDENCE HWY, NORWOOD, MA) WAS CONTACTED AND DIAGNOSED THAT THE CAMSHAFT ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 140,000.

I WAS FILLING GAS UP SUDDENTLY MY CAR DID NOT WANT TO START. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT SOON WHEN ON. WHEN I STARTED DRIVING MY CAR WAS MOVING POORLY. MY ENGINE LIGHT WHEN ON AFTER. I WHEN TO AUTOZONE TO CHECK MY CODE. THEY SAID IT WAS DUE TOO CAMSHAFT SENORS.

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!

VEHICLE WAS PARKED AS I PRESSED THE LOCK BUTTON ON THE CONTROL. 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. THERE IS NO LONGER A DEFROSTER AND THE CONTROLS ARE INOPERABLE. INFINITY IN THE PAST ISSUED THE FOLLOWING: 2003 G35 SEDAN AUDIO FINISHER CIRCUIT BOARD VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN.

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
