2003 Infiniti G35 complaints

I TOOK MY G35 IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION AT 15,000 MILES AND WAS INFORMED I ONLY HAD 5% OF MY BRAKE PADS LEFT. THEY HAD THE NERVE TO BLAME IT ON CITY DRIVING. AS MUCH AS I LIKE MY G35, THIS WHOLE OCCURRENCE AND HOW INFINITI DEALT WITH ME HAS SOURED ME AGAINST THEM. *LA

ABS BRAKING SYSTEM LIGHT APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD INTERMITTENTLY AND WITHOUT WARNING. BRAKES HAD TO BE REPLACED PREMATURELY, MORE FREQUENTLY EVERY 30,000 MILES. DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE BRAKES, BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. *AK

THE FRONT BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS ON MY G35 (ONE YEAR OLD WITH 11,000 MILES) NEED TO BE REPLACED AS WELL AS THE REAR BRAKE PADS, THE CAR IS NOT DRIVEN HARD AND THE WEAR IS EXTREMELY PREMATURE. IT MAY CAUSE A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE MANUFACTURER DOES NOT ADMIT/INFORM CUSTOMERS THAT THIS PREMATURE WEAR IS AN ISSUE, THEY CLASSIFY IT AS NORMAL WEAR WHICH IT MOST CERTAINLY IS NOT.

I TOOK MY INFINITI G35 TO SF PENINSILA INFINITI FOR CREALKING SOUND COMING FROM THE BRAKES. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT MY FRONT BRAKES PADS NEED REPLACEMENT. THE DEALER ALSO TOLD ME THAT THE PADS WORE OUT THE ROTORS AND THE ROTORS HAVE TO BE REPLACED AS WELL. ACCORDING THE DEALER MEASURMENTS, MY ROTORS THICKNESS WHERE 23.91 MM, SO 1.09 MM WAS EATEN BY THE PADS. I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR MOSTLY ON FREEWAY AND THE BRAKES HAVE NOT BEEN ABUSED BY ANY WAY. THAT LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT IN HARDER USE THE ROTORS WILL BE COMPROMISED. THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT MOST OWNERS MUST REPLACE BRAKES AND ROTORS IN LESS THAN 15000 MILES. I SUBMIT TWO ISSUES WITH THE BRAKES OF G35: 1. SAFETY - THE ROTORS ARE SUBSTANDARD AND CAN GO UNDER SAFE LIMIT VERY EASY SINCE MOST CUSTOMERS DOES NOT EXPECT EXTREME EARLY WEAR. THE SAME POINT CAN BE MADE FOR THE PADS. IT IS POSSIBLE THE BRAKE SYSTEM INTERACTS IN UNEXPECTED WAY WITH VDC AND ABC SO THE PADS BECOME ENGAGED IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS. 2. WARRANTY COVERAGE - I WAS CHARGED $510 FOR FRONT BRAKE PADS AND NEW ROTORS. THE INFINITI G35 MAINTENANCE AND WARRANTY BOOK EXPLICITLY LIST THE PADS AS REPLACEBLE ITEMS, BUT DOES NOT MENTION THE ROTORS. THE DEALER COULD NOT POINT OUT WHERE IN THE INFINITI WARRANTY BOOK THE ROTORS ARE EXCLUDED FROM WARRANTY COVERAGE. SINCE INFINITI WROTE THE WARRANTY BOOK, IF SOMETHING IS NOT EXPLICITLY EXCLUDED FROM THE WARRANTY, IT SHOULD BE COVERED. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT INFINITI SPECIFICALLY PRONHIBITS HIM FROM REPLACING THE ROTORS UNDE

1. SQUEEKS FROM PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WITH MUSIC LOUD. 2. DID NOT HAVE ASH TRAY WHEN CAR BOUGHT. COINS HAVE FALLEN IN AND NOW CANT CLOSE ASH TRAY. 3. THE PAINT ON THE BUMPER CLEARLY DOES NOT MATCH TRUNK. POSSIBLY IN ACCIDENT, EVEN THOUGH CAR HAD 10 MILES ON IT WHEN BOUGHT. 4. THE CD CHANGER TAKES 9 SECONDS TO CHANGE CD? 5. THE HEADLIGHT SENSOR TURNS ON HEADLIGHTS WHEN PASSING UNDER SHORT BRIDGE-TO SENSITIVE. 6. DOCUMENTATION DOES NOT EXPLAIN WHAT THE AUTO VOLUME DOES. HAD TO LEARN BY TRIAL AND ERROR. 7. SEVERAL SQUEEKS AND RATTLES. ONLY 8000 MILES AND IT SOUNDS LIKE 60,000 MILES WITH ALL THE SQUEEKS AND RATTLES. 8. CANT TURN OFF THE TRACTION CONTROL, SOMETIMES YOU WANT TO HAVE FUN OR NEED TO GET OUT OF SNOWY TERRAIN. 9. HEATED SEATS ONLY HAVE 2 SETTINGS, TO HOT AND OK DURING COOL WEATHER. 10. GAS MILEAGE IS NOT WHAT IS REPORTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE NEVER GOTTON BETTER THEN 19 MPG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SOMETIMES AS LOW AT 12 MPG. 11. REAR DEFROSTER TAKES FOREVER TO EVEN GET FOG OFF THE GLASS, LET ALONE SNOW. 12. BRAKES ARE SQUEEKING. WHY, THE CAR IS BRAND NEW. 13. FRONT SEAT IS NOT AS COMFORTABLE AS I WOULD EXPECT FOR A CAR OF THIS PRICE. 14. NEED A VOLUME CONTROL THAT IS ROUND, SO YOU CAN ADJUST QUICKLY IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY, IE; DO I HEAR SIRENS?

AT 11,784 MILES (AFTER 16 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP) I TOOK MY CAR TO MY LOCAL SHOP FOR ITS FOURTH OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION. MY MECHANIC INFORMED ME THAT THE FRONT BRAKES AND ROTORS ON MY 2003 INFINITI G35 SEDAN WERE VERY CLOSE TO BEING WORN OUT. I DROVE TO THE LOCAL INFINTI DEALER (INFINITI OF WILLOW GROVE, PA) THAT SAME DAY AND ARRANGED FOR A SERVICE APPOINTMENT. THE FOLLOWING FRIDAY I DROPPED OFF MY CAR, AND WAS LATER INFORMED BY THE SERVICE WRITER THAT YES, THE FRONT ROTORS WERE WORN BEYOND SPECIFICATION AND THAT THE FRONT PADS WERE WORN VERY CLOSE TO REQUIRED REPLACEMENT. SERVICE WRITER SAID THAT INFINITI WOULD COVER THE COST OF REPLACEMENT ROTORS AS A ONE-TIME GOODWILL GESTURE DUE TO THE LOW MILEAGE ON THE CAR, BUT I WAS TO BEAR THE COST OF BRAKE PAD REPLACEMENT. I ORDERED OEM FRONT BRAKE PADS FROM GRUBBS INFINITI OF TEXAS. I LATER BROUGHT THE CAR BACK TO INFINITI OF WILLOW GROVE FOR ROTOR REPLACEMENT UNDER WARRANTY. I THEN TOOK THE CAR BACK TO MY LOCAL SHOP, WHERE THEY INSTALLED NEW OEM FRONT BRAKE PADS. I WAS ALSO TOLD BY INFINITI CUSTOMER SERVICE REPS THAT THESE ARE EUROPEAN-STYLE BRAKES THAT WEAR OUT QUICKLY IN EXCHANGE FOR GREATER STOPPING POWER. IN MY PREVIOUS CAR (1990 MAXIMA), UNDER SIMILAR DRIVING HABITS AND PATTERNS, I WOULD NORMALLY GET 30-35,000 MILES ON PADS AND NEVER HAD TO REPLACE ROTORS, ONLY RESURFACE. INFINITI SHOULD BE UP FRONT WITH PROSPECTIVE BUYERS REGARDING THE LOW LIFE EXPECTANCY OF THE BRAKES ON THE G35 SEDAN.

I TOOK IN THE CAR FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND SERVICE FOR RECALLS AND THE SERVICE DEPT. NOTIFIED ME THAT THE FRONT BRAKE PADS ON BOTH SIDES WERE ALMOST COMPLETELY WORN OUT AND THE ROTORS WOULD NEED RESURFACING. I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM THE SAME DEALER IN APRIL 2002 AND THE CAR WAS BUILT IN MARCH 2002. THE CAR PRESENTLY HAS 17.5K MILES ON IT. IT IS RIDICULOUS, EVEN WITH PERFORMANCE BRAKES, FOR THEM TO FAIL AT SUCH A LOW MILEAGE. MY PREVIOUS CAR THAT I TRADED IN TO THIS DEALER WAS A 1998 320 HP PONTIAC T/A WITH AN EVEN GREATER WEIGHT AND POWER THAN THIS CAR, AND THE BRAKES LASTED 40K MILES. I BELIEVE THE BRAKES INFINITI USES IN THE G35 SHOULD BE REPLACED FOR FREE FOR THE DURATION OF THE WARRANTY SINCE THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. ALSO, MAKE SURE YOUR DEALER PUTS SOMETHING IN WRITING THAT THEY WILL REPLACE THE ROTORS ONCE THEY ARE SERVICED BEYOND REPAIR. DON'T LET THE INFINITI SERVICE DEPT. FOOL YOU INTO THINKING THE PADS SHOULD ONLY LAST 10-20 MILES BECAUSE THEY ARE PERFORMANCE BRAKES. COMPLAIN ENOUGH AND THEY MAY ISSUE A RECALL. *PH

DRIVER'S SEAT ROCKED WHILE DRIVING. DEALER HAD NO REMEDY, ADVISED CONSUMER TO DRIVE WITHOUT SEAT BELT, STATING THIS WOULD MAKE THE SEAT ROCK LESS. *AK

WHEN APPLYING BRAKES AT ANY SPEED BRAKES PULSATE. THERE IS ALSO A HIGH PITCHED SOUND, AND EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE. ROTORS WERE WARPED. DEALER REPLACED ALL FOUR ROTORS 3 TIMES, AND RESURFACED THEM ONCE. AT THIS TIME ROTORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. *AK

MY G35 BRAKES ARE ALREADY IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT AT LESS THEN 20000 MILES. MY PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE WITH BRAKES ON OTHER CARS WAS ALWAYS IN EXCESS OF 50K MILES. THIS SHORT BRAKE LIFE SHOULD BE NOTED IN INFINITI OWNERS MANUAL ALONG WITH AN EXPLAINATION OF WHY THE OWNER SHOULD EXPECT A POOR QUALITY SERVICE LIFE.*AK

ALMOST 99% OF THE TIME WHEN I ROLL MY G35 WITHIN 10 MPH I HEAR A CRACKLING OR GRINDING NOISE (LIKE FAN JUST STARTED) AND A "VIBRATION" WOULD TRANSFER FROM THE BRAKE TO MY FOOT. FTER TROUBLESHOOTING (SHUT DOWN ALL SOUND DEVICE INCLUDING AC/FAN) AND RESEARCHING THE OWNER'S MANUAL, IT STATED WHAT I DESCRIBED ABOVE IS NORMAL. IT'S A SELF-DIAGNOSTIC FEATURE ON ABS SYSTEM WHEN THE CAR IS MOVING SLOW. THE NOISE IS KINDA LOUD AND NOTICEABLE. IS IT THE NORM FOR ALL ABS SYTEMS BY OTHER MANUFACTURERS??*AK

CONSTANT BRAKE NOISE. *NLM

WHILE DRIVING AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DOESN'T SHIFT PROPERLY. SHIFTS FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL. DEALER HAD INSPECTED VEHICLE, BUT PROBLEM STILL OCCURRING . *AK

WHEN VEHICLE IS AT A COMPLETE STOP WITH FEET DEPRESSED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, AND AIR CONDITIONER IS ON, VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY ACCELERATE. BRAKE PEDAL HAS TO BE DEPRESSED VERY HARD TO STOP VEHICLE. CAUSE OF SUDDEN ACCELERATION IS UNDETERMINED.*AK

I OWN AN INFINITI G35, AND I JUST HAD A GENERAL REQUEST I WANTED TO MAKE. THE BRAKES ON G35'S WEAR OUT AFTER ABOUT 15000 MILES, AND IT HAPPENS TO ALMOST ALL G35S YET INFINITI DOES NOT HAVE A RECALL ON THE BRAKES, NOT THE BRAKE LIGHTS, OR GIVE A FREE SERVICE FOR THE BRAKES, WHICH COST ABOUT 900 BUCKS. I KNOW THAT THIS IS NOT AN EMERGENCY OR WHAT NOT, BUT I JUST WANTED YOU TO TAKE THIS INTO YOUR CONSIDERATION AND REVIEW THE BRAKES ON INFINITI G35S. SINCE IT IS THE OFFICE OF DEFECTS INVESTIGATION, I AM SURE YOU'LL REVIEW THE BRAKES ON G35S. THANK YOU. SINCERELY, [XXX]. *NLM INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

CONSUMER STATES THAT BOTH FRONT SEAT BELTS ARE NOT POSITIONED CORRECTLY. DEALER NOTIFIED.*AK

AT 9.5K SERVICE (3RD), CAR HAD SLIGHT PULSING IN THE BRAKES. DEALER CONFIRMED WARPED ROTORS AND MACHINED. ESTIMATED REMAINING PAD LIFE ONLY ABOUT 50%. CAR AND BRAKES HAVE BEEN WELL MAINTAINED IN MAINLY CITY DRIVING. THIS IS THE FASTEST WEAR I HAVE SEEN ON ANY CAR I HAVE OWNED IN 35 YEARS INCLUDING NUMEROUS PERFORMANCE CARS. DEALER ACKNOWLEDGES MANY COMPLAINTS FOR PREMATURE BRAKE WEAR. THIS HAS ALSO BEEN A RECCURING TOPIC ON INFINITI WEB FORUMS. DEALER INDICATED INFINITI USED TO COVER THIS AS WARRANTY BUT IS NOW BALKING AT REPLACEMENT UNDER THE GUISE THESE ARE "HIGH PERFORMANCE" BRAKES AND NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR ULTRA SHORT BRAKE LIFE, SOME CONSUMERS MAY NOT BELIEVE THE BRAKE WEAR INDICATOR SQUEAL AND NOT GET THE BRAKES CHECKED IN TIME TO PREVENT FAILURE. THIS COULD TURN INTO A LONG TERM SAFETY ISSUE. THIS ALSO MAYBE DUE TO AN UNRECOGNIZED INTERACTION WITH THE STABILITY CONTROL, ELECTRONIC BRAKE ASSISTANCE AND TRACTION CONTROL LEADING TO HIGHER BRAKE STRESSES AND SHORT LIFE. THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED AT FOR A TECHICAL SERVICE BULLETIN AND WATCHED AS A LONG TERM SAFETY ISSUE AS THE CARS AGE.

LTR BEHALF OF PAUL REAVIS (CA) FEELS THE LOCATION OF THE LIGHT SWITCH ON THE 2003 INFINITI G35 IS DANGEROUS AND NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED. *MR THE CONSUMER ACCIDENTALLY TURNED OFF THE HEADLIGHTS WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, DUE TO THE INADVERTENT ROTATION OF THE HEADLIGHT SELECTION CONTROL TO THE NEXT POSITION WHICH WAS "OFF. *SCC *CB *JB

MY BRAKE ROTORS HAVE BEEN SERVICED, CUT OR REPLACED, (5) FIVE TIMES STARTING ON 09/18/02 WITH 5,350 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. WHEN THE BRAKES WERE SERVICED AT 15,409 MILES, THE FIFTH TIME, I WAS TOLD INFINITI WILL NO LONGER SERVICE THE ROTORS UNDER WARRANTY. I MADE A COMPLAINT TO INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS WHO ADMITTED THERE WERE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT BRAKES WEARING OUT QUICKLY. BUT, THERE WAS NO ANSWER AS TO WHY MY ROTORS WARPED REPEATEDLY, AND WHY A MASTER TECHNICIAN WOULD NOT LOOK AT MY CAR.*AK

FRONT BRAKE PADS ON INFINITY G35 CAUSE A PULSATING ACTION AND ARE WEARING PREMATURELY. THE DEALER TURNED THE ROTORS AND THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. INFINITY CORPORATE WILL NOT LET THE DEALER REPLACE THE BRAKE PADS, DESPITE A PUBLIC OUTCRY FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE. MOREOVER, THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS APPLIED. INFINITY CORPORATE DID ALLOW THE DEALER TO REPLACE THIS UNDER RECALL R3011.*AK

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

DRIVERS SEAT "ROCKS" BACK AND FORTH, SOMETIMES EMITTING A "POPPING" OR "CLICKING" NOISE, ESPECIALLY WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP OR WHILE CORNERING UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE MOVEMENT OF THE DRIVERS SEAT WHILE DRIVING THE CAR HAS CAUSED DISRUPTION OF NORMAL DRIVING HABITS, RESULTING IN ERRATIC ACCELERATION AND OVER AND UNDERSTEERING. I HAVE FOUND CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SEAT REDUCE THE MOVEMENT, BUT THESE ADJUSTMENTS MAKE THE SEAT UNCOMFOTABLE AND DO NOT PROVIDE THE PROPER SITTING POSITION I NEED TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE SAFELY. I SEE THIS AS A SAFETY ISSUE AND HAVE THUS NOTIFIED TWO SEPERATE INFINITI DEALERSHIPS, BOTH OF WHOM WERE UNABLE TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM AND ONE OF WHICH MADE THE MOVEMENT WORSE DURING THEIR "INSPECTION" OF THE FAULTY SEAT. I OWN AN INFINITI G35 WITH THE PREMIUM PACKAGE, WHICH INCLUDES LEATHER UPHOLSTERY AND A FULL-POWER DRIVERS SEAT.*AK

I PURCHASED MY 2003 INFINITI G35 IN AUGUST 2002. WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED MY VEHICLE I NOTICED A LOT OF BRAKE DUST ON MY FRONT BRAKES. I INFORMED THE SERVICE DEPT OF THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE AND WAS TOLD THIS IS NORMAL. ABOUT A MONTH LATER I BEGAN HEARING A SQUEALING SOUND WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES, I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS NORMAL. THE DEALER EVEN BEGAN TO READ ME AN ARTICLE/PUBLICATION SUGGESTING THAT THIS WAS BECAUSE THESE WERE HIGH PERFORMANCE BRAKES. NEEDLESS TO SAY AFTER BACK AND FORTH WITH THIS DEALER AND INFINITI FOR OVER 4 MONTHS, TO NO AVAIL I LEFT THE ISSUE ALONE. NOW 6 MONTHS LATER, I REQUIRE NEW FRONT BRAKES AT ONLY 19,000 MILES. *NLM

REAR SPEAKER MAKING NOISE. *JB

TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT ONLY 5000MPH. *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

2003 G35 CP 6 SPD I WAS DRIVING ON THE 60 FWY GOING WEST @ 2:30 AM, TRAVELING ABOUT 65 MPH & ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE CAR SPIN OUT & SKIDDED ACROSS THE FREEWAY ONTO THE DIRT ALMOST HIT THE CENTER DIVIDER. I WAS SHOCK! I WAS THINKING MAN... WHAT DID IT JUST HAPPEN? FIRST I THOUGHT THERE WERE STUFF LIKE GREASE ON THE FWY THAT CAUSE THE SPIN OUT. BUT I WALK TO THE FREEWAY & THERE WAS NOTHING ON THE FWY. SO I GOT BACK INTO MY CAR TRY TO MOVE THE CAR, BUT IT WOULD NOT MOVE. IT SEEMS LIKE THE REAR-WHEEL BRAKE IS LOCKED, THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE. SO I CALL THE TOW TRUCK & TOW MY CAR TO THE DEALER IN RIVERSIDE. THEN WHEN THE CAR GOT TO THE DEALER, THE MECHANIC WENT UNDERNEATH AND FOUND OUT THERE WERE PLASTIC GOT CAUGHT AROUND THE DRIVESHAFT. THEN THEY JACKED UP THE CAR TO REMOVE THE PLASTIC, THEY'VE FIND OUT THAT THE BRAKE LINES ARE TWISTED, THAT'S WHY THE REAR BRAKE LOCKED UP. SO AFTER THE DEALER GAVE ME A QUOTE TO REPLACE THE BRAKE LINES. AND I ASK THEM ISN'T THAT A DEFECT FROM MANUFACTURE? THEY TOLD ME NO, THEY BLAME ON ME THAT I RAN OVER THE PLASTIC & CAUSE THE BRAKE TO LOCKED. DOES IT MAKE SENSE TO YOU? BRAKE IS CONTROL BY THE DRIVER, NOT ANY OBJECTS ON THE ROAD. LUCKY THERE WAS NO CARS AROUND AT THAT TIME. AND ALSO THERE WAS NOT A FREEWAY DIVIDER RIGHT NEXT TO ME, OR ELSE WHO KNOWS WHAT COULD OF HAPPEN. I COULD CAUSE A BIG ACCIDENT. SO TO ME, THIS IS A VERY MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE & NOW I DO NOT FEEL SAFETY & COMFORTABLE DRIVING THAT CAR ANYMORE, AFTER I HAD ALMOST LOST MY LIFE. THIS INCID

I OWN A 2003 INFINITI G35. THE CAR IS 7 MONTHS OLD WITH LESS THAN 10,000 MILES ON IT. I WAS TOLD BY MY DEALERSHIP THAT I HAD NO FRONT BRAKES. I BROUGHT THE CAR IN BECAUSE 3 LIGHTS WERE LIGHTING UP ON MY DASH FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS: THE BRAKE LIGHT, THE SLIP LIGHT, AND THE VDC OFF LIGHT. I WAS SHOCKED TO LEARN THAT I DIDN'T HAVE ANY FRONT BRAKES. TO ME, THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE. *JB
