2008 Infiniti G37

VEHICLE PULLS AND JUMPS ALL OVER THE PLACE, THIS IS SO PRONOUNCED THAT THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE ON MOST ROADS. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER 3 SEPARATE TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE, ON EACH OCCASION THEY HAVE PERFORMED AN ALIGNMENT BUT IT DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. ON THE FOURTH VISIT TO THE DEALER AN INFINITI REPRESENTATIVE LOOKED AT THE VEHICLE AND DECLARED THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE BUT CONFIRMED IN WRITING THAT THE VEHICLE DOES INDEED EXHIBIT THIS BEHAVIOR. ADDITIONALLY, THE VEHICLE WILL OCCASIONALLY HAVE A COMPLETELY UNRESPONSIVE THROTTLE AND WHEN I TRY TO ACCELERATE - THE VEHICLE WILL JUST SIT IDLING, THIS HAS BECOME EVEN MORE COMMON SINCE THE LAST VISIT TO THE DEALER (THE DEALER REPROGRAMMED THE ECU FOR REASONS THAT STILL HAVE NOT BEEN MADE CLEAR TO ME) CONCERNING THE ABOVE ISSUE. *TR

ON OCTOBER 23, 2009 I WAS DRIVING IN A PARKING STRUCTURE WITH MY INFINITI G37 2008 AND A PASSENGER. THERE WERE SEVERAL PARKING SPACES ON THE FOURTH FLOOR. THE PARKING STRUCTURE WAS VERY BUSY AND SLOW MOVING. I COASTED INTO THE PARKING SPORT SINCE I WAS DRIVING AT A CRAWL. WHEN I TOUCHED THE BRAKE LIGHT TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP THE CAR SURGED FORWARD WITH SUCH A FORCE THAT IT HIT THE WALL THAT WAS APPROXIMATELY 3 FOOT IN FRONT OF PARKING CURB. IF IT HADN'T HAVE BEEN FOR THE WALL THE CAR WOULD HAVE GONE OVER. *TR

THE ENGINE MAKES CLICKING/TAPPING SOUND AT START-UP, DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT CONTACTED. I WAS INFORMED THAT I NEED A "SPECIAL" OIL CHANGE, AND THEY'RE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. AFTER RESEARCHING FOR THE SAME PROBLEM, IT LOOKS LIKE THIS 'SPECIAL' FACTORY OIL WILL BE NEEDED AND COST MORE THAN CONVENTIONAL OIL. HOWEVER, I WAS NOT INFORMED OF THIS SPECIFIC MATTER WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NOR DOES IT SAY ANYWHERE IN MY OWNER MANUALS. APPARENTLY, ONLY THE DEALERSHIP HAD SUCH OIL AND I AM REQUIRE TO USE IT AFTER THE FACT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 INFINITI G37. THE VEHICLE HAS BRIDGESTONE POLE POSITION, SIZE 24540W19 TIRES. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A FLAT ON THE DRIVER SIDE REAR TIRE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WERE ABNORMAL TEARS ON THE SIDEWALL OF THE REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRE CAUSED BY A TIRE IMPERFECTION. THE DEALER REPLACED THE TIRE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,370 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 2,145. THE CONSUMER STATED HE DID NOT KNOW WHAT WOULD CAUSE THE TIRE TO FAIL. THE TIRE WOULD NOT HOLD AIR AFTER IT WENT FLAT. THE DEALER STATED THE TIRE HAD AN IMPERFECTION. THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT DID NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN THE TIRE WHEN FLAT. UPDATED
