I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW FROM BOMMARITO INFINITI IN ELLISVILLE, MO IN 2003. I HAVE INTERMITTENTLY HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE STEREO SYSTEM AND AIR-CONDITIONING/HEATER CONTROLS WORKING. AT THIS POINT, THE HEATER IS STUCK ON 90 DEGREES, CONTROLS NOT WORKING, AND ALSO THE RADIO WILL NOT WORK FROM THE CONSOLE BUT I CAN CONTROL IT FROM THE STEERING WHEEL. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ONLINE AND SEE THAT IT IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR AND YEAR BUT WHEN I CALLED THE INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT I WAS TOLD THAT THIS PARTICULAR PART WAS NOT RECALLED ON MY CAR BUT OTHER CARS HAD BEEN AFFECTED. THIS CLEARLY IS A ONGOING ISSUE WITH THIS CARS CIRCUIT BOARD THEY SHOULD CONTINUE THEIR RESEARCH. I HAVE TO SAY AT LEAST IT IS WINTERTIME IN ILLINOIS RIGHT NOW OTHERWISE I WOULD BE DYING OF A HEAT STROKE DRIVING THIS CAR....

THE CLIMATE CONTROL/ AUDIO CONTROL UNIT IN MY G35 FROZE A FEW WEEKS AGO MAKING THE SYSTEM INOPERABLE. AS A RESULT THE THE FRONT AND REAR DEFROSTERS HAVE BECOME INOPERABLE CREATING A DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITION SPECIALLY IN THE RAIN. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE FOR ALL G35S MADE FROM 2003 -2005 AND INFINITI IS VERY WELL AWARE OF IT. HOWEVER THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING TO ADDRESS IT. BACK IN 2003 THEY HAVE DONE A RECALL BUT ONLY TO A LIMITED NUMBER OF CARS THAT HAD A PARTICULAR PART NUMBER. BUT THE TRUTH IS EVERY G35 WITH THE OEM UNIT IS VULNERABLE TO THIS ISSUE. IN ABILITY TO CONTROL THE DEFROSTERS AFFECTS THE VISIBILITY WHICH MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT THAT MAY RESULT IN INJURIES AND OR DEATH.

MY VEHICLE AIR BAG LIGHT ON. STAYS ON INSPECTED AT DEALER. THEY STATED AIR BAG WILL NOT WORK DURING A POSSIBLE ACCIDENT, SAFETY ISSUE.

IT WAS ABOUT A YEAR AGO WHEN I FIRST STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH MY A/C AND RADIO. A/C BLOWS INTERMITTENTLY AT WHAT EVER TEMPERATURE AND AIR LEVEL IT FEELS LIKE AND CANNOT BE ADJUSTED. THE RADIO AT THE SAME TIME CANNOT BE ADJUSTED. THE FIRST TIME THIS ISSUE HAPPENED IT LASTED FOR ABOUT A WEEK AND THEN IT JUST STARTED WORKING AGAIN. NOW IT IS LIKE IT HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN. THIS IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO USE THE DEFROSTER IN THE MORNINGS AND LATE AT NIGHT. NOT ONLY IS IT A SAFETY ISSUE BUT IT IS ALSO UNHEALTHY TO GET A CONSTANT FULL BLOW OF 62 DEGREE AIR BLASTING AT YOU WHEN IT IS 40 TO 50 DEGREES OUT SIDE. EVEN THOUGH I ADJUST THE VENTS CLOSED IT STILL BLOWS COLD AIR THROUGH THEM. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THESE CARS AND CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY NISSAN WONT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS DESIGN FLAW. I ENDED UP TAKING MY CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND HAD TO PAY A DIAGNOSTIC FEE, NO CODES CAME UP. BUT THEY ARE TELLING ME THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THESE CARS AND THE AUDIO FINISHER CIRCUIT BOARD WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF 700.00.! THERE ARE SO MANY NHTSA COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE IF YOU CANNOT SEE OUT YOUR WINDOW, BECAUSE YOU CANNOT WORK THE DEFROSTER!

HAD MY CAR IN A NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSTIC FOR AC PROBLEMS AND WAS TOLD THAT MY 3RD REAR BRAKE LIGHT WAS ALSO OUT. I WAS NOT EVEN AWARE OF THIS. THEN I WAS TOLD THAT I COULD NOT JUST REPLACE THE BULB, THAT I WOULD HAVE TO BUY A COMPLETE ASSEMBLY UNIT FOR THAT AND IT WOULD RUN ME $287.00 PLUS TAX!!!!! EVERY TIME I TURN AROUND SOMETHING IS COSTING ME SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I JUST PUT OUT OVER $700.00 FOR THE A/C, RADIO FINISHER CIRCUIT BOARD, ALSO NOT ON A RECALL!

THE ENTIRE CONSOLE INCLUDING DEFROSTER ETC. WENT OUT. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND A VOLUNTARY RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR SEDANS BUT NOT COUPES. HOWEVER, THE COUPE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. IT IS THE FINISHER ELECTRICAL CARD WHICH FAILED AND APPARENTLY HAS BEEN FAILING CONSISTENTLY FOR THIS YEAR AND MODEL. INFINITI IS FORCING THEIR CUSTOMERS TO PAY FOR THIS ORIGINAL FLAW. OTHERWISE YOU ARE STUCK WITHOUT ANY ABILITY TO ALTER THE CONSOLE SETTINGS INCLUDING THE ABILITY TO DEFROST/DEFOG YOUR WINDSHIELD WHICH CREATES A SAFETY CONCERN. I WILL NO LONGER BE IN THE MARKET FOR A NISSAN PRODUCT, ALONG WITH MY NEIGHBORS, FRIENDS AND RELATIVES THAT I HAVE SHARED THIS WITH. *TR

I RECENTLY BOUGHT A USED 03 INFINITI G35 COUPE, THE FIRST PROBLEM THAT I FOUND IS THAT WHEN REFUELING THE CAR SHUTS THE GAS PUMP NOZZLE OFF ABOUT EVERY 20-30 AND HAPPENS EVERY TIME I REFUEL REGARDLESS OF WHAT GAS STATION I GO TO. THE SECOND PROBLEM IS THE BRAKES IT'S HAPPENED TO ME TWICE IN THE LAST MONTH, BOTH TIMES WERE DRIVING SLOW AROUND 5-10MPH IN THE MORNING WHEN IT'S COLD REGARDLESS IF I LET MY CAR WARM UP FOR A FEW MINUTES OR START UP AND GO. *TR

VEHICLE HAS AN OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE. PREVIOUS OWNERS HAVE OWNED THE CAR WITH UNDER 100K MILES AND ALWAYS HAVE HAD OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR. CURRENTLY THE VQ35DE ENGINE CONSUMES ABOUT 2 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 2 WEEKS/300 MILES..THE CAR IS ALWAYS UNDER LIGHT LOAD. CAR RARELY EVER SEES HARD ACCELERATION OR HIGH RPMS. PREVIOUS OWNER WARNED ME OF THE OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM WHICH THEY DEALT WITH FOR THE FULL TIME OF OWNING THE VEHICLE. I ALSO OWN A 2002 NISSAN MAXIMA WITH THE SAME VQ35DE ENGINE AND HAS AN OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM AS WELL BUT NOT NEARLY AS BAD.. ITS VERY SIMPLE TO GOOGLE VQ35 OIL CONSUMPTION AND FIND A PLETHORA OF LINKS TO ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. SEEMS LIKE THE BORE ON THE BLOCK IS MILLED INCORRECTLY WHICH CAUSES THE OIL GETTING PAST THE TOP RING. *TR

RADIO, CD, AND A/C CONTROL CONSOLE DO NOT WORK. ALSO THE DASHBOARD CRACKED. I CALLED INFINITI AND I WAS TOLD NO RECALL HAD BEEN ISSUE. I'M EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED BY THIS BRAND. I WILL TAKE MY BUSINESS TO HONDA WHO MAKE BETTER QUALITY CARS. *TR

SINCE I BOUGHT MY G35 COUPE, I'VE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY DRIVER SIDE WINDOW, CURRENTLY STOPPED WORKING, IT WOULDN'T GO DOWN. IT WOULD BE MY 4TH TIME I REPLACED WINDOW MOTOR, IS NOT CHEAP. OUT OF NOWHERE MY WINDOW GO DOWN WHEN IS CLOSED, WATER GETS IN WHEN RAINING. THEN WHEN FINALLY I GET TO CLOSE THE WINDOW, IT WOULD NOT GO DOWN. INFINITI NEEDS TO MAKE THIS PROBLEM AN OFFICIAL RECALL AND REPLACE ALL THE WINDOW MOTORS. I LOVE MY CAR, I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO. I CANNOT AFFORD PAYING FOR NEW WINDOW MOTOR. PLEASE HELP ME AND ALL INFINITI OWNERS. THANKS *TR

THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF ON THE ROAD WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. IT HAPPENED 2 YEARS AGO FIRST TIME. REPLACED CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR BANK 1 AND BANK 2. IT HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY, WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY PREGNANT WIFE. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO AVOID ANY ACCIDENT AND PARKED ON THE SHOULDER. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME UP. CODE P0340 . SAME PROBLEM LIKE 2 YEARS AGO. SO THE PROBLEM COMES BACK AGAIN AND AGAIN ,EVEN WHEN THE SENSORS WERE REPLACED (OEM PARTS.) THERE WAS INFINITI RECALL ON THAT PROBLEM (RECALL # R3021) . I REQUEST INFINITI DEALERSHIP TO FIX THIS PROBLEM WITH NO COST. THANK YOU *TR

THE RADIO WILL STOP OPERATING AND THE AIR CONDITIONER WILL BLOW AT ITS HIGHEST LEVEL. YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY CONTROL OVER REGULATING THE TEMPERATURE OR FLOW. OBVIOUSLY, I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON TO ENCOUNTER THIS PROBLEM. *TR

AS I WAS ACCELERATING TO ACCESS HIGHWAY, I WAS NOT ABLE TO ACCELERATE MY VEHICLE. IT WAS AS IF I WAS RUNNING OUT OF GAS. I KEPT PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL AND IT SLOWLY STARTED TO ACCELERATE AND SEEMED FINE. A FEW MINUTES LATER WHEN I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT, THE CAR DIED. I PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTARTED AND IT WAS FINE. A FEW DAYS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED AS I WAS IN THE CARPOOL LINE AT MY DAUGHTER'S SCHOOL. CAR WAS RUNNING, WHILE I WAITED AND IT SUDDENLY SHUT DOWN. WHEN I RESTARTED, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED AND REMAINED ON. I CHECKED MY MANUAL AND THOUGHT IT COULD BE THE GAS CAP WASN'T ON TIGHT ENOUGH OR BAD GAS. FILLED UP MY TANK AND A FEW HOURS LATER CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT OUT. TODAY THE CAR DIED AS I WAS PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY, HOWEVER IMMEDIATELY RESTARTED. RESEARCHED RECALL INFORMATION AND CONTACTED INFINITI AND WAS TOLD MY VEHICLE WAS NOT PART OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 03V455000. *TR

BELOW IS WHAT INFINITI SENT OUT. I AM EXPERIENCING THE ISSUE AND NONE OF MY CONTROL PANELS WORK. THIS MEANS THAT MY DEFROSTERS ON BOTH WINDOWS ARE NOT AN OPTION FOR ME TO CLEAR MY WINDSHIELDS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD EARLY MORNING NOW AS CONDENSATION SITS ON BOTH REAR AND FRONT WINDSHIELDS. EVEN THOUGH MY SYMPTOMS ARE EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED, I AM REFUSED A SOLUTION. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND IS A KNOWN DEFECT IN THIS MODEL AND YEAR CAR. 2003 G35 SEDAN AUDIO FINISHER CIRCUIT BOARD VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN ON SOME MODEL YEAR 2003 G35 SEDANS MANUFACTURED THROUGH AUGUST 21, 2002, THE AUDIO AND TEMPERATURE CONTROLS MAY NOT OPERATE AS EXPECTED. WHEN USING THE AUDIO EQUIPMENT OR THE TEMPERATURE CONTROLS, THE UNIT MAY BECOME INOPERATIVE. IN SOME CASES, THIS CAN BE CORRECTED BY TURNING THE IGNITION SWITCH OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN. IN OTHER CASES, THE UNIT REMAINS INOPERATIVE AND REQUIRES SERVICE BY AN INFINITI TECHNICIAN. TO PREVENT THIS CONDITION, INFINITI HAS INITIATED A VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN TO REPLACE THE AUDIO FINISHER CIRCUIT BOARD ON THESE VEHICLES AT NO CHARGE TO THE CUSTOMER FOR PARTS OR LABOR.
