2007 Infiniti G35 Complaint Log

PURCHASED A NEW 2007 INFINITI G35, VEHICLE HAS UNDER 10000 MILES AND HAS HAD ISSUE ON AT LEAST 6 OCCASIONS. THE CLUTCH PEDAL HAS ONLY PARTIALLY DISENGAGED WHILE SHIFTING. SLOWING THE VEHICLE AND PUMPING THE CLUTCH WILL RELEASE IT. THE SMELL OF CLUTCH IS PRESENT FOLLOWING THE EVENT. INFINITI COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM SO NO WORK WAS DONE ON MY CAR. IT STILL HAPPENS. ALSO OCCURED ON THE HIGHWAY, LOSS OF POWER ETC. SAFETY CONCERN! *CN

I'VE OWNED MY VEHICLE FOR JUST A LITTLE OVER TWO MONTHS AND I REGRET MY CHOICE. THE DRIVER WINDOW ACTS UP. I'VE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE WINDOW FOR ABOUT A MONTH NOW. I GOES UP EXTREMELY SLOW! THE AUTO BUTTON DOESN'T WORK. JUST TODAY I LOWERED MY WINDOW ALL THE WAY DOWN AND IT WOULDN'T GO UP. I HAD TO USE MY HANDS TO PRY IT UP. THIS WILL BE THE SECOND TIME I TAKE MY VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. *TR

THERE ARE METAL PAINT FLAKES LODGED IN THE CLEAR-COAT OF THE PAINT JOB, ALL OVER THE VEHICLE. IT SHOWS UP AS SMALL SPECS OF COLOR IN THE PAINT FINISH, REALLY OBVIOUS WHEN YOU HAVE A BLACK CAR. *TR

ENGINE CONSTANTLY USING EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 INFINITI G35. THE VEHICLE HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. THE FAILURE OCCURS WHILE TURNING OR DRIVING FORWARD AND WAS NOTICED AT 10 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS AND THEY DUPLICATED THE FAILURE; HOWEVER, THEY STATED THAT THERE WAS NO REMEDY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 2,500.

I BELIEVE THE PAINT ON THE 2007 INFINITI G35 IS DEFECTIVE. THE DEALER DID NOT TELL ME WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE THAT IT NEEDED TO BE SEALED. AFTER ONLY HAVING THE VEHICLE 2 MONTHS, THE PAINT ON MY HOOD IS RUINED FROM BIRD DROPPINGS. I WAS AT WORK AND BY THE TIME I WAS ABLE TO WASH IT OFF MY PAINT WAS RUINED. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER ABOUT THE PROBLEM HE TOLD ME THE PAINT WAS SUCH 'HIGH TECH' PAINT THAT IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN SEALED AND THEN HE TOLD ME THE DEALERSHIP SPENDS THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS EVERY YEAR HAVING CARS REPAIRED FROM THEIR LOT BECAUSE OF BIRD DROPPINGS. IF THE PAINT IS THAT BAD, IT SHOULD BE SEALED COATED FROM THE FACTORY! *TR

WHEN USING CRUISE CONTROL AND GOING DOWNHILL THERE IS A CONSTANT BRAKING FEELING THAT MAKES THE RIDE FEEL JERKY. NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS ON ANY OTHER VEHICLE. SPOKE WITH OTHER OWNERS AND THEY HAVE SAME EXPERIENCE AND DEA;ER ADVISED NOTHING CAN BE DONE. SUNROOF IS VERY NOISY WHEN OPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE FLAP THAT POPS UP WHEN THE ROOF IS OPENED IS THE CULPRIT. WHEN YOU HOLD DOWN WITH YOUR HAND IT IS MUCH QUIETER. *TR

THE INTELLIGENT KEY OFFERED WITH THE NEW TECHNOLOGY PACKAGE IS NOT BUILT TO WITHSTAND NORMAL USE. MY UNIT COMPLETELY DIED WITH 48 HOURS OF OWNING THE VEHICLE, LEAVING ME STRANDED AND MISSING MOTHER'S DAY LUNCH. INFINITI HAS ACKNOWLEDGED CONFLICTS WITH THE KEY AND MOBILE PHONES, HOWEVER A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ENACTED. *TR

WHEN MY MOST FREQUENT PASSENGER OF 140 LBS SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THE AIRBAG OFF LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE TAKEN THIS INTO THE DEALER ABOUT 6 TIMES AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO RECREATE THE ISSUE AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND ANY ISSUE WHEN RUNNING TESTS ON THE COMPUTER. THIS MAKES ME VERY UNEASY AS AN ACCIDENT CAN HAPPEN AT ANYTIME AND I AM RISKING THE LIFE OF MY PASSENGER. *TR

I HAVE HAD MANY PROBLEMS WITH MY G35X MOST NOTABLY THE CAR JERKS VIOLENTLY AT OR AROUND 38 MPH, I HAVE CALLED CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THE DEALER AND THEY BOTH DENY THERE EVEN BEING A PROBLEM. THE COLOR IS LIQUID PLATINUM AND THERE SEEMS TO BE METAL FLAKES IN THE CLEAR CAUSING THERE TO BE THOUSANDS OF TINY RUST SPOTS ON THE PAINT. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 INFINITI G35X SOMETIMES WHEN I AM DRIVING THE CAR ABOUT 60 KM/H AND ACCELERATE THE CAR ALARM COMES UP "ENGINE SERVICE SOON" AND "SLIP" AND "VDC" AND IT STARTS GOING CRAZY DOESN'T SHIFT TO THE NEXT GEAR AND WHEN I HIT THE BRAKE IT STOPS DIFFERENTLY. IT IS HARD TO EXPLAIN BUT SCARY IT HAS LESS THAN 5000 KM IN. ALSO THERE IS SOME NOISE TOO. THE DEALER SHIP TRY TO FIND IT NOW BUT I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THESE GUYS. WITH THE FIRST THING WITH ALL THE ALARMS. IF I TURN THE ENGINE OFF LEAVE IT FOR A MINUTE AND TURN IT BACK IT RESETS THE ALARM BUT NOT THE SERVICE ENGINE ONE. THEY SAYING THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. I WISH I CAN CHANGE THIS CAR TO ANOTHER BRAND. THIS IS SCARY TO DRIVE. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE SEND ME AN EMAIL. ALSO CAN YOU PLEASE GIVE ME INFO ABOUT CANADIAN GOV. WEBSITE I CAN FILE MY REPORT TOO. THANKS ZOLTAN. *NM
