2003 Infiniti G35

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 INFINITI G35. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE AIR CONDITION WOULD SPORADICALLY FAIL. THE FAILURE WORSENED AND INCLUDED THE RADIO AND CD PLAYER AS WELL. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THERE WAS A VOLUNTARY RECALL FOR THE EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL:RADIO/TAPE DECK/CD ETC.; HOWEVER, THEY WOULD NOT REPAIR THE VEHICLE FOR FREE BECAUSE HIS VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE VIN RANGES ARE JNKCV51E*3M000014-026621. THE CONTACT IS IN THE PROCESS OF REPAIRING THE AUDIO FINISHER CIRCUIT BOARD AT THE COST OF $1,400. THE RECALL NUMBER WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 64,000.

CD GOT STUCK IN CD PLAYER. RADIO STARTED CUTTING IN AND OUT. THEN THE DASH PANEL THAT CONTROLLED THE STEREO, CD, HEATER, AC, ETC DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE A/C DOES NOT SHUT OFF, WHEREAS ALL THE OTHER DEVICES DO NOT TURN ON. I CAN STILL USE THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL BUT THE OTHER CONTROLS ON THE DASH (EXCEPT NAVIGATION) STOP WORKING. *TR

2003 INFINITI G35 WITH A RECALL ON THE ENGINE. CUSTOMER STATES THAT THE DEALER TOLD HER THAT HER CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH THE SYMPTOMS WERE THE SAME. DEALER REFUSED TO FIX IT UNLESS SHE PAID 11,000 DOLLARS TO FIX IT. *KB THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONSUMER THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN BECAUSE THE PISTON BROKE CAUSING IT TO HIT THE ENGINE WHICH PUT A HOLE IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. THE CONSUMER HAD A USED ENGINE PUT IN THE VEHICLE ON JULY 24, 2006 BUT, ONE YEAR LATER THE ENGINE FAILED. THE CONSUMER STATED SHE HAS HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES, THE DRIVER'S SEAT MADE A CONSTANT NOISE, THE 6 CD CHANGER MALFUNCTIONED AND CEASED TO OPERATE AND THE WINDOW MOTOR WAS REPLACED. *JB

NOISE COMING FROM ENGINE WHEN AIR-CONDITIONING IS ON. SEEMED TO GET LOUDER. TOOK INTO DEALER, ASSUMED IT WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. HAD 60,000 WARRANTY WAS AT 54,000. ALSO GAS TANK NOT SHOWING FULL WHEN FILLING UP. BOTH REPAIRS TOTALED 1100.00 APROXIMATELY FELT AT 54,000 MILES THESE SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED AND WAS TOLD I HAD THE REMAINDER OF FACTORY WARRANTY WHICH WAS 4 YEARS/60,000. I WAS NOT AWARE THE FIRST SALE DATE WAS LATE 2002 APPARENTLY. *JB

UPON TAKING MY 2003 G35 SEDAN TO INFINITI OF NASHVILLE TO HAVE MY OIL CHANGED AND THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH REPLACED BASED ON A NATIONAL RECALL, THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH WAS IMPROPERLY INSTALLED CAUSING MY BRAKES TO BE LOCKED. I WAS ALLOWED TO DRIVE OFF THE LOT WITH MY VEHICLE IN THIS CONDITION CAUSING WEAR ON MY BRAKES AS IT APPEARED THAT NO ONE TEST DROVE MY CAR PRIOR TO THE MAINTENANCE TO ENSURE EVERYTHING WAS OPERATING EFFECTIVELY. IN ADDITION, MY TRANSMISSION APPEARS TO BE SLIPPING BASED ON THE INCIDENT. *LA

BOUGHT MY INFINITI G35 IN MAY OF 2002, EVER SINCE DAY ONE, THE DRIVER'S SEATS SEEMS TO BE MOVING, ROCKING DURING ACCELERATION AND BRAKING.. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM ON A LOT OF G35'S. DEALER'S AND INFINITI HAS NOT RELESASE A FIX THAT WORKS YET AFTER A YEAR... I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM, BECAUSE TWICE MY FOOT SLIPPED OFF OF THE BRAKE PEDAL DURING BRAKING AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT..... THERE ALSO SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH LIFE OF THE BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS WHERE THEY MIGHT FAIL PREMATURELY... MOST DRIVERS OF THE G COMPLAIN THAT THEIR PADS AND ROTORS ARE NEEDING TO BE REPLACED AS SOON AS 8,000 MILES AND ARE NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY.*AK
