2006 Infiniti G35 Complaint Log

The fuel gauge in my Infiniti G35x is malfunctioning and does not show the correct fuel levels. As a result, my vehicle has unexpectedly run out of fuel multiple times, causing it to stop on the side of the road. This poses a significant safety risk as it can lead to sudden and dangerous situations for both myself and other drivers. Stopping on the side of the road in such conditions can also result in potential traffic violations. This issue needs to be addressed to ensure safer driving.

Fuel gauge in instrument cluster malfunctioned, inaccurately reading more than half full. This caused me to run out of gas on a public road. In addition to the risk of becoming a stationary road hazard, I lost power brakes and steering when the gas ran out which caused me to almost hit the car in front of me. The problem has not been reproduced by a dealship or service center, however I had the sending units replaced which a mechanic said would fix the issue and it didn't. The gauge is still inaccurate. I have not had the cluster inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representative. I have researched the issue myself and learned that the cluster is commonly defective, I also have an intermittent left turn signal. There was a check engine light (P0462) intermittently on, which was temporarily fixed by replacing the sending units but has since come back. I don't know when they first appeared.

The airbag light keeps blinking. I have had no incidents. I saw that there was an issue with this year model. i would like it covered with the repair.

WHILE I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70MPH, THE GLASS FROM MY SUNROOF FLEW OFF OF MY VEHICLE ONTO ON COMING TRAFFIC. THERE IS NO ACTIVE RECALL FOR THIS AND IT SEEMS THAT MAY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY 50 MY WAY TO WORK THE FOLLOWING DASH LIGHTS CAME ON VDC OFF, ABS, SLIP. AFTER PULLING OVER TO EXAMINE WHAT WAS WRONG I DISCOVERED I HAD NO BRAKE LIGHTS & THE 10 AMP BRAKE FUSE HAD BLOWN. I THEN GOT BACK IN MY CAR TO DRIVE TO A PARTS STORE & THE SHIFT LOCK WOULDN'T DISENGAGE. SO I MANUALLY ENGAGED THE SHIFT LOCK & DROVE TO THE PARTS STORE & REPLACED THE FUSE BUT THE DASH LIGHTS WERE STILL ON SO I BEGAN TO DRIVE HOME & THE BRAKES BECAME TIGHTER & WOULDN'T RELEASE & THEY EVENTUALLY WERE COMPLETELY LOCKED WITH ALL 4 SO HOT THEY WERE SMOKING SO I PARKED IT. THE NEXT DAY I WENT TO DRIVE TO A MECHANIC & THE BRAKES HAD RELEASED BUT THE MORE I DROVE THEY STARTED ENGAGING ON THEIR OWN WITHOUT RELEASING & BECAME HOT AGAIN SO I PARKED IT AGAIN. BASICALLY AFTER IT SETS THE BRAKES RELEASE BUT AFTER DRIVING FOR A SHORT DISTANCE 2-5 MILES THEY BEGIN TO ENGAGE & NOT RELEASE CAUSING THEM TO OVERHEAT. I'VE SEARCHED THE INTERNET FOR SOLUTIONS & IT APPEARS NUMEROUS PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM & SOME HAVE HAD A SHORT IN A BRAKE WIRE HARNESS & OTHERS HAVE REPLACED SPEED SENSORS OR ABS PUMPS BUT THEY CAN'T TELL WHICH CAUSED THE PROBLEM SINCE IT'S INTERMITTENT. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE I WAS IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY WITH A TRACTOR TRAILOR BEHIND ME & MY BRAKES BEGAN ENGAGING ON THEIR OWN & I WAS TERRIFIED OF BEING REAR ENDED & POSSIBLY KILLED. NOW I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW IF IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN OR HOW TO FIX IT. *TR

THE STEERING COLUMN ADJUSTER TO MOVE THE STEERING COLUMN INTO A POSITION NOT ONLY OF COMFORT FOR THE DRIVER BUT THE POSITION TO DRIVE SAFELY HAS STOPPED WORKING. THE ADJUSTMENT CAN NO LONGER BE MADE FOR EACH SPECIFIC DRIVER. THE COLUMN IS STUCK IN ITS LOWEST POSITION. THE COLUMN CAN MOVE IN AND OUT FOR DISTANCE, BUT WILL NOT ADJUST FOR THE VERTICAL UP AND DOWN POSITIONS. THE SWITCH DOES NOT MAKE ANY NOISE FOR THE VERTICAL ALIGNMENT. YOU CAN HEAR THE MOTOR RUNNING FOR THE IN/OUT MOVEMENT THE COLUMN DOES HOWEVER, THERE IS NO NOISE FOR THE UP AND DOWN ADJUSTMENT.

IGNITION LOCKED - UNABLE TO TURN KEY. INFINITI IS A REAL [XXX] AT $153/HOUR. IS THIS A NATS / NASH UNIT PROBLEM WITH THE SIGNAL, THE ANTENNA OR THE WIRE HARNESS. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I AM UNABLE TO PUT FUEL IN MY CAR. THE GAS JUST RUNS OUT OF THE GAS TANK WHEN I AM TRYING TO ENTER THE GAS. IT KEEPS MAKING A CLICKING SOUND. I FEEL UNSAFE BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW IF I HAVE ANY GAS IN THE CAR AND I AM AFRAID THE CAR WILL RUN OUT OF GAS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 INFINITI G35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEFROSTER AND HEATER PANEL SHUT OFF AND ON WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT CALLED BERMAN INFINITI OF NILES AT (847-828-8001, LOCATED AT 5757 W TOUHY AVE, NILES, IL 60714) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO THEIR FACILITY FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED TO CALL NHTSA. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 86,000. *TP

MY 2006 INFINITY G35 MANUAL TRANSMISSION HAS 86,000 MILES AND HAS EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. I PUT 3 QUARTS OF OIL IN AFTER JUST 700 MILES OF DRIVING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. THEY CONFIRMED THAT THERE ARE NO LEAKS. THEY PERFORMED AN OIL CHANGE AND PLACED DYE IN THE OIL. I'M TO TAKE IT BACK AFTER 500 DRIVING MILES. THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET REGARDING THIS EXACT ISSUE; HOWEVER, TO DATE, NISSAN HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. I HAVE TAKEN EXCELLENT CARE OF MY CAR AND NOW THIS - NO SUPPORT FROM NISSAN. PLEASE NHTSA HELP!

AIR BAG LIGHT IS FLASHING ON DRIVERS SIDE. HORN QUIT WORKING A YEAR AGO AND INFINITY DEALERSHIP IN TULSA OKLA ALWAYS CHECKS ON THE MAINTENANCE FORM THAT THE HORN WORKS.... I GET THE CAR SERVICED AT JACKIE COOPER INFINITY, TULSA OKLA.EACH TIME THE OIL NEEDS CHANGING. I HAVE BROUGHT THIS UP TO THE SERVICE MGR. SERVICE ADVISOR INFORMED ME THERE'S NO RECALL ON MY CAR. BUT RECALL WEBSITE SAYS DIFFERENT. I JUST WANT THE TRUTH.

MY CAR IS BURNED TO MUCH OIL I HAVE OIL CONSUMPTION

MY CAR WAS INVOLVED IN A ACCIDENT WHERE THE FRONT END CRUMPLED BUT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. MY DAUGHTER WAS THE DRIVER AND SHE WAS TRAVELING DOWN A 6 LANE HIGHWAY AT 30 MILES AN HOUR WHEN A VAN COMING OUT OF A MEDIAN CROSSED IN FRONT OF HER. SHE ENDED UP "T" BONING THE VAN.

MY CAR STALLS WHILE DRIVING ANYWHERE .. HWY,INTERSTATE, DRIVEWAY...AND SOMETIMES DIES WHEN SLOWING DOWN. THE SLIP LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THIS HAPPENS. IT USUALLY LOSES POWERFUL A FEW SECONDS AND THEN JOLTS BACK TO POWER SCARING ME TO DEATH. IT HAS DIED COMPLETELY TOO WHEN I PULL INTO A VERY SLOW DOWN MODE. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY MANY TIMES.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS FLASHING AND IT WON'T GO OFF.

THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT THAT SITS IN THE WINDOW DOESN'T NOT LIGHT WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED WHEN POWER WAS ATTACHED TO THE LIGHT IT WORKED BUT NOT WHEN PLUGGED IN TO THE HARNESS IN THE CAR THE TAIL BRAKE LIGHTS WORK HOWEVER

INFINITY G35 SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING VCD LIGHT COMES ON SLIP LIGHT COMES ON AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. THE G35 DIES, LOW POWER, OR SPUTTERS AT LOW OR SLOWING ENGINE SPEED E.G. WHEN SLOWING FOR TRAFFIC SIGNALS, OR TURNING (USUALLY ACROSS A LANE OF TRAFFIC!). I HAVE HAD IT HAPPEN ON THE INTERSTATE IT WAS IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING A SHARP RELEASE OF THE ACCELERATOR, AS WHEN PUNCHING IT TO PASS THEN RELEASE, OR REACHING SPEED LIMIT, AND RELEASE, FROM ACCELERATION LANE. ONCE RIGHT AFTER ENTERING THE FREEWAY, I WAS SETTING MY CRUISE CONTROL WHEN IT SPUTTERED AND I WAS AFRAID IT WAS GOING TO DIE BUT IT FINALLY KICKED IN WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL. I DON'T KNOW THE ECM CODE BUT IT INDICATED: CAM SHAFT POSITION SENSOR. I WONDER IF THERE ARE ANY OTHERS WITH THIS CODE OR PROBLEM? LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, MINE IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY OF THE RECALLS. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO THE DEALER SHOP SEVERAL TIMES WITH THE COMPLAINT OF STRONG GAS SMELL PRIOR TO THIS CODE/ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON. THEY TELL ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. I'M NOT SURE WHETHER THIS IS CONNECTED TO THE CAM SHAFT SENSOR OR NOT, BUT THE SMELL OF GAS INSIDE THE CABIN IS VERY STRONG WHILE DRIVING AT TIME. THE GAS FUMES CAN BE SMELLED OUT SIDE THE VEHICLE WHEN NOT IN MOTION EITHER AFTER JUST STARTING OR PARKING THE VEHICLE.

IT DOESN'T HAVE NO EFFECTS

HIGH MOUNT BRAKE LIGHT OR 3RD BRAKE LIGHT HAS STOPPED FUNCTIONING DUE TO A UNDERRATED DIODE ON THE CIRCUIT BOARD. THIS CREATES AN UNSAFE SITUATION IN ALERTING OTHER DRIVERS OF BRAKING/SLOWING AND IS NOT PASSABLE FOR TEXAS STATE INSPECTION.

AIRBAG LIGHT BLINKING. RECALL FOR THIS CAR YEAR AND MODEL BUT NOT MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE?? DEALERSHIP & INFINITI REFUSING TO FIX THIS UNDER RECALL...

WINDOW MOTORS HAVE HAD TO BE REPLACED MULTIPLE TIMES. RANDOMLY END UP OPENING FOR NO REASON AND GET STUCK IN THE DOWN POSITION.

DEALER STATING THAT I NEED BOTH CATALYTIC CONVERTERS REPLACED. MY LOCAL MECHANIC STATES, THAT HE HAS SEEN MANY INFINITI AND NISSANS 2005-2007 HAVE CATALYTIC CONVERTER PROBLEMS. MY CAR HAS 110,000 MILES

THE FUEL GAUGE IS MALFUNCTIONING AND SHOWING HALF FULL DESPITE THE AMOUNT OF FUEL IN THE TANK. GAUGE CLUSTER TEST CONFIRMED THIS ISSUE. GAUGE ISSUE OCCURS REGARDLESS OF SPEED AND/OR LOCATION OF VEHICLE. TEST METHOD: HOLD THE TRIP RESET BUTON AND TURN THE IGNITION ON. NOW PUSH THE TRIP BUTTON 10 TIMES IN ABOUT 5SEC. THIS WILL ENTER SELF DIAG MODE. ALL THE NEEDLES WILL DROP NOW PUSH IT AND HOLD ALL THE NEEDLES SHOULD GO. HALFWAY. IF THE FUEL GAUGE NEEDLE STICKS THEN YOU HAVE YOUR ANSWER.

"TAKATA RECALL" - WHEN STARTING AND DRIVING THE CAR, THE SEAT BELT/AIR BAG LIGHT FLASHES CONSISTENTLY. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR MORE THAN A WEEK. I TOOK IT TO THE INFINITI DEALER ON 7/2 AND HAD A DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED AT WHICH TIME I WAS TOLD IT HAD TO DO WITH A PREVIOUS RECALL AND THEY WERE ABLE TO RESET IT. HOWEVER WHEN I STARTED THE CAR, THE FLASHING LIGHT INDICATOR FOR THE SEAT BELT/AIR BAG CAME ON AGAIN. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER'S ATTENTION AND ANOTHER DIAGNOSTIC WAS PERFORMED AND I WAS ADVISED THAT I NEEDED A NEW AIRBAG AND THAT I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CHARGE. THE AIRBAG WAS NEVER DEPLOYED, SO I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING OR ABSORBING THE COST. I NEED TO KNOW IF THIS ISSUE IS ASSOCIATED TO THE TAKATA RECALL AND ASKED THAT YOU INVESTIGATE AND LET US KNOW IF THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE. I AM VERY CONCERNED, WORRIED AND UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING THE CAR IN THIS CONDITION. EAGERLY AWAIT YOUR RESPONSE ON NEXT STEP NEEDED TO RECTIFY THIS ISSUE.

DASHBOARD CRACKING

THE ENGINE STALLED WITH OUT WARNING WHILE I WAS DRIVING. NOW THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON, VDC, AND SLIP LIGHT COMES ON, THE ENGINE SOMETIMES WILL NOT START, I'VE ALSO EXPERIENCE REDUCED POWER AND HESITATION. I HAVE SEEN A RECALL FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM FOR MY YEAR AND MODEL, BUT NOT FOR MY VIN.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ON. BOTH FUEL SENSOR UNITS WERE REPLACED ON VEHICLE. GAS GAUGE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. --P0462 OBD-II TROUBLE CODE: FUEL LEVEL SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW INPUT.

AIRBAG LIGHT BLINKS CONTINUOSLY

BOTH OUTSIDE AND INSIDE DOOR HANDLES ON DRIVER'S DOOR FAILED THUS MAKING DOOR MECHANISM IMPOSSIBLE TO ACTIVATE AND DRIVER'S DOOR IMPOSSIBLE TO OPEN FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE UNDER ANY CONDITIONS. DOOR CANNOT BE PUSHED OPEN FROM INSIDE BECAUSE LATCH MECHANISM IS IN CLOSED POSITION SECURING DOOR CLOSED AND HANDLES DO NOT WORK. CONTACTED DEALER AND DEALER SAID IT IS PROBABLY A FAILED HANDLE CABLE AND THAT IT IS NOT UNCOMMON ON THIS MODEL AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY RECALL, REIMBURSEMENT, OR SAFETY PROGRAM. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE DOOR LATCH MECHANISM TRAPS THE DRIVER IN THE CAR; IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE FOR AN ADULT-SIZED DRIVER TO GET OUT BECAUSE THEY CANNOT EFFECTIVELY CRAWL OVER THE CENTER CONSOLE AND GEAR SHIFT TO THE PASSENGER SEAT, ASSUMING THE PASSENGER DOOR IS NOT BLOCKED. A RECALL OF THIS KNOWN DEFECT IS REQUIRED IMMEDIATELY TO SAVE LIVES AND ALLOW TRAPPED DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS TO GET OUT OF CAR IN REASONABLE TIME AND WAY. *TR

WAS GOING DOWN RAMP ONTO INTERSTATE 85 NORTHBOUND. I HAD A BUS IN FRONT OF ME, I WAS SWITCHING LANES, HE SWITCHED LANES RIGHT I FRONT OF ME. ALL OF A SUDDEN A PIECE OF METAL FROM THE BACK END OF THE BUS FLEW UP AND HIT MY BUMPER. PULLED OVER AND INSPECTED. BUMPER PAINT IS SCRATCHED OFF. I HAVE THE LICENSE PLATE OF THE BUS. *TR

CAR RAN OUT OF GAS TWICE. WAS INFORMED THE FIRST TIME THAT GAS SENSOR WAS DEFECTED SO IT WAS REPLACED. THE SECOND TIME, LAST WEEK, IT RAN OUT OF GAS AND WAS TOLD THA THE UNIFIED METER ASSEMBLY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED FOR $940. THIS MAKE AND MODEL CAR SEEMS TO HAVE DEFECTS IN OIL CONSUMPTION AS WELL AS DEFECTIVE FUEL GAUGES. ACCORDING TO THIS SITE, THE FUEL GAUGE PROBLEM WAS ADDRESSED BY NISSAN, HOWEVER, NOT ALL VEHICLES WERE REPAIRED. *TR

FUEL GAUGE READS INACCURATELY CAUSING VEHICLE TO RUN OUT OF FUEL. VERY COMMON PROBLEM ON THIS MODEL ACROSS THE YEARS OF 2003 - 2006. NISSAN HAS ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM WITH SOME OF THEIR MODELS, BUT NOT ALL. IF VEHICLE RUNS OUT OF FUEL, IT CAN DISABLE THE VEHICLE CAUSING INCREASED STEERING EFFORT AND POSSIBLY A CRASH. *TR

THIS VEHICLE WAS IMPORTED FROM CANADA AT BLAINE, WASHINGTON IN 2014. THIS VEHICLE STILL REPORTS SPEED IN KILOMETERS AND RECORDS MILEAGE IN KILOMETERS EVEN THOUGH IT NOW HAS A WASHINGTON TITLE..

NOT SURE THIS IS SOMETHING YOU WOULD PURSUE BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET SATISFACTION FROM LAKE NORMAN INFINITI LOCALLY OR THEIR NATIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE SUPPORT DESK. I HAVE A 2006 INFINITI COUPE WITH 24K MILES ON IT. I HAD AN ISSUE WITH WHAT WAS DETERMINED TO BE THE COOLING FANS FOR THAT CAR. I WAS TOLD BY THE PARTS MANAGER(JOHN) AT THE DEALERSHIP THAT CAR HAS KNOWN ISSUES WITH THE COOLING FANS. THE SERVICE MANAGER (VICTOR) SENT ME TO THE NATIONAL TEAM. THE CAR WENT INTO SERVICE ON 08/05/06. THE PART FAILED ON OR ABOUT 08/15/14. I AM BEING TOLD BY THE NATIONAL TEAM THAT THE PART HAD A 8 YR ' HARD' WARRANTY ON IT. THERE HAVE SINCE BEEN DENIALS ABOUT THE PART BEING DEFECTIVE SINCE MY INITIAL CONTACT WITH LAKE NORMAN DEALERSHIP. I WAS THERE IN MARCH OF 2014 FOR SERVICE AND WAS NEVER COMMUNICATED AN ISSUE WITH THAT PART. THE CAR HAS LOW MILEAGE AS IT SITS IN THE GARAGE MOST THE TIME. I WAS DRIVING IT TO WILMINGTON WHEN I SAW THE FIRST EVIDENCE OF A PROBLEM ON 08/16. AS A RESULT OF THE ISSUE, I HAD TO REPLACE THE COOLING FANS AND THE RADIATOR ON THE CAR. *TR

THE CAR IS HAVING TONS OF ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH CLIMATE CONTROL , RADIO AND PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSORS. BODY CONTROL MODULE AND SEATS. CAR WON'T START AND I HAVE TAKEN TO 3 DIFFERENT SHOPS AND EXPERTS AND CANNOT FIGURE OUT ISSUE WITH CAR. CAR IS NOT OPERABLE AND WON'T START. CONTACTED INFINITY AND THEY TOLD ME THEY DON'T HAVE ANY OPEN RECALLS.THEY DON'T OFFER ANY INFORMATION OR HELP ON MAJOR CAR ISSUES FOR A 2006 MODEL. PLEASE ASSIST ON THIS MATTER.INFINITY IS REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE ALL ISSUES WITH ELECTRICAL AND BCM ISSUES ON G35'S. *TR

VEHICLE ACCELERATED RAPIDLY WHILE COMING TO A STOP IN A SLOT PARKING SPACE. OPERATORS FOOT WAS ON THE BREAK PEDDLE AT THE TIME OF THE RAPID ACCELERATION. VEHICLE THEN CRASHED INTO A TREE AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE CRASH CAUSED EXTENSIVE FRONT END DAMAGE TO THE HOOD AND FRONT BUMPER AND THE ENERGY ABSORBING SYSTEM. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY BUT THE AIR BAG INDICATOR LAMP IS ON. *TR

I HAVE ALWAYS HAD MY MECHANIC DO SERVICING ON MY INFINITI UNTIL HE CLOSED THE BUSINESS. SINCE THEN, I HAVE BEEN DOING MY OWN OIL CHANGES AT HOME. DOING SO, I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE AMOUNT OF USED ENGINE OIL IS ROUGHLY 2.5 QUARTS. IN THE OWNERS MANUAL, WHEN CHANGING THE ENGINE OIL WITH OIL FILTER, THE VEHICLE INTAKES 5 QUARTS OF OIL. IT SEEMS LIKE THE ENGINE IS BURNING OIL BECAUSE I DON'T SEE ANY OIL LEAK MARKS ON MY DRIVEWAY. *TR

MY FANS QUIT WORKING IN MY CAR WE REPLACED ALL FUSES AND FANS 3 TIMES ALREADY AND NOW HAVE WIRES MELTING FROM THE FAN TO THE HARNESS WE LOOKED AT ALL WIRES MADE SURE THEY WERE NOT MELTED THE FIRST TIME BUT NOW THEIR MELTED AND FANS NOT WORKING FUSES EITHER. PLUS IT OVER HEATS. *TR

I WAS HEADING SOUTH ON I 75 IN FLORIDA HEADING TOWARDS BRADENTON IN THE PASSING LANE DOING BETWEEN 75 & 80 WHEN MY ENGINE SHUT DOWN MAKING A LOUD NOISE. I IMMEDIATELY PUT MY FLASHERS ON AND WAS ABLE TO MOVE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN THE EMERGENCY LANE, LUCKILY THERE WAS ONE. THE CAR BEHIND ME WENT TO THE MIDDLE LANE AT THAT POINT. I AM SO FURIOUS THIS HAPPENED AS I JUST HAD MY CAR SERVICED THE WEEK BEFORE AND I AM 72, A SENIOR CITIZEN. THE COOLING FANS APPARENTLY KNOCKED OUT THE THERMOSTAT. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER IN TAMPA WHO THEN INFORMS ME THE WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED ON A RECALL TILL OCTOBER AND THAT INFINITI WOULD PAY FOR THE COOLING FANS BUT NOT THE THERMOSTAT... I THINK ALL INFINITI OWNERS SHOULD'VE BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS PROBLEM AND HAD IT FIXED BUT NO LETTERS WERE WRITTEN, ITS AN UNWRITTEN RECALL APPARENTLY BECAUSE THEY HAVE HAD PROBLEMS. I FIND FAULT WITH THIS SITUATION BECAUSE I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED WAITING FOR HELP JUST BEING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD LIKE THAT ON AN INTERSTATE.... SHAME ON INFINITI FOR NOT MAKING THIS A TRUE RECALL.... ARE THEY WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO GET KILLED BEFORE THEY OFFICIALLY RECALL IT?? I NO LONGER HAVE ANY CONFIDENCE IN INFINITI AND AM LOOKING FOR A DIFFERENT VEHICLE TO PURCHASE, THIS ONE IS OFF MY LIST NOW... THIS CAR HAS BEEN VERY EXPENSIVE TO KEEP UP.... *TR

I FIRST COMPLAINED TO A CONSUMER AFFAIRS REPRESENTATIVE FOR INFINITI IN APRIL, 2014, AT THE TIME THE VEHICLE HAD APPROXIMATELY 42,000 MILES. I AM RETIRED AND DON'T DRIVE VERY MUCH, ABOUT 3,000 MILES A YEAR. I HAVE OWNED INFINITIES SINCE 1990 WHEN I BOUGHT AN M CLASS, I'VE HAD ALL THE CLASSES; J, G WHATEVER. UNTIL 2005 I WOULD BUY AND OR LEASE A NEW CAR EVERY 2 TO 3 YEARS. HOWEVER, SINCE I'VE BEEN RETIRED THE NEED TO REPLACE A GOOD RUNNING CAR, WHICH HAS BEEN MECHANICALLY SUPERB AND WITH LESS THAN 49,000 MILES WOULD BE AN EXTRAVAGANT AND UNNECESSARY MOVE. I HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT IN OVER 20 YRS. THE PROBLEMS ARE REGARDING THE EXTERIOR PAINT, WHICH SHOWS MINOR RUST AND THE FADING OF THE COLOR IN AREAS THAT ARE NOT NECESSARILY OVERLY EXPOSED TO THE SUN, I.E. BELLOW THE ROOF AND OVER THE REAR DOORS. HOWEVER, MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS THE INTERIOR DOOR PANELS WHICH HAVE PULLED AWAY FROM THE DOORS DUE TO A SKIMPING OF PERHAPS AS LITTLE AS 1/4" OF MATERIAL UNDER THE HORIZONTAL STRIP WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO KEEP THE PANEL IN PLACE. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO RE-GLUE THE PANELS, HOWEVER DUE TO THE SHRINKAGE OF THE MATERIAL; MY ATTEMPTS HAVE BEEN LESS THAN SUCCESSFUL. SINCE THIS IS THE FIRST VEHICLE THAT I HAVE EVER OWNED FOR A PERIOD GREATER THAN 4 YEARS, I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE OBVIOUS LACK OF COMPANIES, INFINITI AND NISSAN WITH THEIR SEEMING LACK OF ACTION FOR A LONGTIME LOYAL CUSTOMER. SADLY, IN MY CORRESPONDENCE TO INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS, THEIR RESPONSE WAS A JOLT TO MY SENSIBILITY AND COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.

I AM UNSURE OF THE ORIGINAL DATE THAT I NOTICED. I DID CALL MY LOCAL INFINITI DEALERSHIP TO INQUIRE ABOUT A RECALL AND THEY STATED THAT THERE WAS NONE. MY DASHBOARD HAS MELTED AND IS CRACKING IN SEVERAL SPOTS. I CANNOT CLEAN IT AND IT IS EXTREMELY STICKY SO EVERYTHING GETS STUCK TO IT. *TR

I RECENTLY NOTICED RUST POPPING THROUGH THE UPPER DOOR TAPE ON BOTH FRONT DOORS ON THE 06 INFINITI G35X. CLOSER INSPECTION SHOWED THAT BOTH FRONT DOORS DUE TO A DESIGN OR QUALITY ISSUE WAS RUSTING FROM THE INSIDE OUT ON BOTH DOORS. MY MAIN CONCERN, OUTSIDE OF HOW BAD THE RUST LOOKS IS THE CRASH AND SAFETY INTEGRITY OF THE DOORS IN A CRASH. I BROUGHT THE CAR BY THE DEALER AND THEY IDENTIFIED THERE WAS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR 03-04 G35 AND THE 06 G35 AND THEY COULD NOT ASSIST FURTHER. I CONTACTED NISSAN CUSTOMER CARE AND OPENED A CASE AND THE END RESULT WAS A DENIAL FOR INDICATING THE CAUSE WAS ENVIRONMENTAL AND NOT THERE PROBLEM. I COULD NOT ACCEPT THIS AND INDICATED BOTH OF MY 2006 G35 FRONT DOOR ARE RUSTING FROM THE INSIDE AND IS CLEARLY A DESIGN OR PART INTEGRITY ISSUE AND NOT A ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE. HE AGAIN STATED THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE HE COULD DO AND OFFERED A SERVICE SPIFF INSTEAD. I INDICATED THIS WAS NOT ACCEPTABLE AND REQUESTED A CALL BACK FROM HIS SUPERVISOR. A CALL WAS RECEIVED THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY FROM HIS SUPERVISOR WHO STATED THEIR DECISION STANDS AND DOORS ARE RUSTING FROM THE INSIDE OUT DUE TO ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS AND WAS NOT NISSAN ISSUE AND THEIR DECISION WAS FINAL. ADVISED I STILL WOULD NOT ACCEPT THIS AND SHE STATED THIS WAS END OF THE LINE FOR MY FILE. I AM POSTING THIS SO ALL CAN BE INFORMED HOW NISSAN STANDS BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS AND HOW THEY REALLY FEEL ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS-THEY DO NOT CARE. MY MAIN CONCERN OUTSIDE OF THE UNSATISFACTORY LOOK OF THE RUST IS THE SAFETY AND INTEGRITY OF THE DOORS IN CRASH. I OFTEN HAVE MY SMALL CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE AND NOW FEEL THE DOORS INTEGRITY IS CLEARLY COMPROMISED AS THE DOORS ARE RUSTED OUT AND GETTING WORSE.IT IS SAD NISSAN/INFINITI IS NOT CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY AND INTEGRITY OF THE PARTS USED ON MY VEHICLE TO ASSIST FURTHER WITH THIS UNACCEPTABLE RUST ISSUE THAT CAN EASILY BE RESOLVED. *TR

1. CAR WAS HARD TO STOP WHEN BRAKING FOR A LIGHT 2. CAR ACCELERATED ON IS OWN WHEN ENTERING DRIVEWAY HAD TO SLAM ON BRAKES 3. CHECKED AROUND THE PEDALS FOR ANY THING THAT MAY HAVE CAUSED THIS. NOTHING WAS FOUND SO I TOOK THE CAR FOR A TEST DRIVE. AND WHEN I SLOWED ON MY STREET PRIOR TO TURNING INTO MY DRIVEWAY THE CAR TOOK OFF ON IT'S OWN AGAIN. I HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL TO STOP IT. WHEN I DID THE ENGINE REDLINED BY ITSELF. *TR

LIGHT OF AIR BAG ON DRIVER'S COMPANION SEAT TURN ON AND OFF FROM TIME TO TIME, EVEN IF NO ONE IS SITTING ON SEAT. ALSO MULTIPLE CRACKS WERE PRESENT IN THE DASHBOARD AND WERE LOCATED NEAR THE AIR BAG. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT ONE CRACK EXTENDED FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE TO THE DRIVER SIDE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED.

DRIVER SEAT HAS A LOT OF MOVEMENT/PLAY (LOOSE) EVERYTIME BRAKE IS APPLIED SEAST MOVES FOREWARD CAUSING THE DRIVER TO MOVE ALONG WITH IT. SEAT IS BOLTED TIGHTLY POSSIBLE TRACK MALFUNCTION. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS CONSTANTLY WEATHER VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR IN MOVEMENT.

CLUTCH PEDAL STICKS AND MAKES NOISE ALL THE TIME. DEALERSHIP REPLACED SLAVE CYLINDER AT 72,000 MILES, BUT THE PROBLEM HAS RETURNED AT 92,000 MILES.

I HAVE A 2006 MANUAL TRANSMISSION G35 THAT IS CONSUMING UP TO 2 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES. I DID NOT REALIZE THIS WAS HAPPENING UNTIL MY ENGINE MADE A LOUD REPETITIVE TICKING NOISE AND WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL THERE WAS LESS THAN A QUART IN IT. I'VE SINCE CONTINUED TOPPING OFF MY OIL WEEKLY AND CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIPS. SINCE I AM OUT OF WARRANTY THE ONLY THING I CAN DO IS REPLACE THE BLOCK MYSELF. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED HOW THEY ARE HANDLING THIS SITUATION WITH NOT ONLY ME BUT MANY OTHER INFINITI OWNERS. ANY INPUT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. *TR
