I'VE RECENTLY BEEN HAVING ISSUE WITH THE ENGINE WHERE THE CAR STALLS. THE CAR START FINE WHEN I DO A COLD START BUT WHEN THE CAR WARMS UP THE CAR STALLS AT TIMES. I'VE BEEN HEARING A LOT OF THE STORIES FROM OTHER PEOPLE ON DIFFERENT FORUMS WHERE THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE FOR THIS MODEL. THE CULPRIT ARE EITHER THE THROTTLE BODY WHICH I HAD ALREADY REPLACE THREE YEARS BACK, THE 2 CAM POSITION SENSORS AND CRANK POSITION SENSOR. I RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON THE CAM POSITION SENSORS AND CRANK POSITION SENSOR. I'M HOPING THAT MY VIN# IS PART OF THAT RECALL. THE SECOND ISSUE I HAVE BEEN HAVING WITH THIS CAR IS THE RADIO AND TEMPERATURE CONTROL. THAT I RECENTLY HAD CHANGED WITH THE FACTORY RADIO ATTACHED TO THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL. THE RADIO WOULD STOP WORKING. I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND THE AC UNIT WOULD TURN ON BY IT SELF. I RECENTLY JUST INSTALLED AN AFTER MARKET RADIO. WITH EVERYTHING AFTER BUYING WHAT WAS REQUIRED TO DO A DOUBLE DIN CONVERSION AND INSTALLATION. IT COST ME A GOOD AMOUNT OF MONEY. ANOTHER ISSUE THIS CAR HAS IS THE SEAT BELT ISSUE. IT DOESN'T RETRACT PROPERLY AND THE PASSENGER SIDE IT'S A CHORE JUST TRYING TO PUT ON THE SEAT BELT. *TR

INFINITI G35 COUPE DRIVER SEAT BELT DEFECTIVE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER IN FRESNO CA IN OCT. 08. THEY TOLD ME IT IS FINE AND A FEW DAYS LATER IT BROKE AT THE ANCHOR BOLT. I HAD TO TOE IT BACK TO THE DEALER AT MY EXPENSE AND THEY REPLACED THE BOLT. IN OCT. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO THAT DEALER TO CHECK THE SEAT BELTS THEY TOLD ME THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT IN FRONT IS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDS REPLACED. WHEN WE TOOK IT BACK TO REPLACE IT THEY TOLD ME IT IS WORKING FINE NOW AND DOES NOT NEED REPLACEMENT. I AM WORRIED THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT MIGHT BREAK JUST LIKE THE DRIVER SEAT BELT DID A FEW DAYS AFTER THEY GAVE ME A CLEAN CHIT THAT IT WAS FINE. *TR

DRIVERS SIDE SEAT ROCKS ON BRAKING/TURNING. I HAD THE CAR IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND ASKED ABOUT THE SEAT. THE DEALER TOLD ME THEY REPLACED A PART IN THE SEAT. IT HELPS SOMEWHAT BUT THERE IS STILL TOO MUCH PLAY IN THE DRIVERS SEAT. IT MAKES YOU WONDER IF THE SEAT IS ACTUALLY SECURED TO THE CAR PROPERLY, AND ALSO IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, WOULD THE SEAT HOLD UP APPROPRIATELY? ALSO THE BRAKES ARE SQUEALING AT 10,000 MILES. ACTUALLY, THEY'VE BEEN SQUEALING FOR THE LAST 4,000 MILES. THEY ARE STARTING TO MAKE A GRINDING NOISE AS WELL SOMETIMES. I HAVEN'T BEEN TO THE DEALER ABOUT THIS YET, BUT IT IS A CONCERN THAT THE BRAKES COULD FAIL. I PREVIUOSLY HAD AN EXPEDITION AND HAD PROBLEMS WITH THOSE BRAKES AS WELL, BUT WOULD NORMALLY GET 20,000 TO 25,000 MILES OUT OF THEM.*AK

I AM A 5'2" FEMALE AND HAVE A NEW G35 SPORT COUPE. THE SEAT BELT SHOLDER STRAP CUTS INTO MY NECK DO TO THE FACT THE STARTING POINT OF THE SEAT BELT IS TOO FAR BACK WHEN I ADJUST MY SEAT FORWARD IN ORDER TO REACH THE FOOT PEDALS. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND THE CONSUMER DEPT. AT INFINTI AND THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. IF I WERE TO BE IN AN ACCIDENT, THIS SHOULDER BELT WOULD SURLEY CUT INTO MY NECK AND CAUSE MORE HARM THAN GOOD. PLEASE ADVISE. *AK
ON CERTAIN PASSENGER AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE FUEL FILLER HOSE MAY CRACK AND RESULT IN FUEL LEAKAGE FROM THE HOSE WHILE REFUELING.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: FUEL LEAKAGE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE COULD RESULT IN A FIRE.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FUEL FILLER HOSE. RECALL BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 27, 2006, FOR NISSAN OWNERS, AND ON MARCH 13, 2006, FOR INFINITI OWNERS. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261 OR INFINITI AT 1-800-662-6200.
ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, THE CIRCUIT BOARD FOR THE CRANK POSITION SENSOR OR CAM POSITION SENSOR MAY HAVE AN IMPROPER SOLDER JOINT DUE TO SOLDER DEFORMATION CAUSED BY HEAT STRESS ACCELERATED BY THE EXISTENCE OF FLUX RESIDUE DURING THE SOLDERING PROCESS.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS COULD CAUSE THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" WARNING LIGHT TO COME ON, CREATE A NO START CONDITION, CAUSE REDUCED ENGINE POWER, OR CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STOP RUNNING WITHOUT WARNING DURING VEHICLE OPERATION, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE CRANK POSITION SENSORS. CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR(S), AND IN SOME CASES, THE VARIABLE TIMING CONTROL SENSOR(S). VEHICLES INVOLVED IN A PREVIOUS RECALL CAMPAIGN, 01V357, ARE ALSO INCLUDED IN THIS NEW CAMPAIGN. THE REPLACEMENT SENSORS USED IN THAT CAMPAIGN ARE ALSO AFFECTED. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON DECEMBER 22, 2003. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261 OR INFINITI AT 1-800-662-6200.
ON CERTAIN SEDAN AND COUPE MODEL VEHICLES, THE BRAKE STOP LAMP SWITCH MAY MALFUNCTION.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THIS OCCURS, THE BRAKE LAMPS WILL NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN THE BRAKE IS APPLIED, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE BRAKE LAMP SWITCH. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON JUNE 23, 2003. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT INFINITI AT 1-800-662-6200.
CERTAIN SEDANS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 108, "LAMPS, REFLECTIVE DEVICES, AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT." IN THE ASSEMBLY OF THE HEADLAMPS, IT IS NECESSARY TO HAVE A MEANS TO ADJUST THE HEADLAMPS. TAMPERPROOF CAPS TO PREVENT HORIZONTAL ADJUSTMENT OF THE HEADLAMPS ARE THEN INSTALLED. SOME OF THESE VEHICLES ARE MISSING THE TAMPERPROOF CAPS.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: Not supplied
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL THE MISSING TAMPERPROOF CAPS ON THE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLIES. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN JANUARY 20, 2003. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT INFINITI AT 1-800-662-6200.
ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, THE FUEL HOSE CONNECTION FOR THE OUTLET OF THE FUEL PUMP WHICH IS LOCATED AT THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK MAY NOT HAVE BEEN PROPERLY ATTACHED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ASSEMBLED AND COULD COME LOOSE WHILE DRIVING OR WHEN STARTING THE ENGINE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THE CONNECTION COMES LOOSE WHILE DRIVING, THE ENGINE WILL STOP RUNNING DUE TO LACK OF FUEL, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. ALSO, IF THE CONNECTION COMES LOOSE WHILE DRIVING OR ATTEMPTING TO START OR RESTART THE ENGINE, SOME FUEL WILL DISCHARGE FROM THE FUEL PUMP. IF THIS SHOULD OCCUR IN THE PRESENCE OF AN EXTERNAL IGNITION SOURCE, A FIRE COULD RESULT.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND, IF NECESSARY, PROPERLY ATTACH THE FUEL HOSE TO THE FUEL PUMP. OWNER NOTIFICATION IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN OCTOBER 7, 2002. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT INFINITI AT 1-800-662-6200.
