2003 INFINITI G35 Complaints

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 INFINITI G35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE BRAKE AND SERVICE ENGINE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED BEFORE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT ABOUT RECALL 03V45500 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING) RELATED TO THE CRANK POSITION SENSOR. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER WHO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 107,181.

THE CAR IS A 2003 INFINITI G35. MY WIFE WAS CROSSING AN INTERSECTION WHEN THE CAR JUST STOPPED. TRAFFIC COMING THE OTHER WAY HAD TO ALSO STOP TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. SHE WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR AND GET IT GOING AGAIN, ONLY FOR IT TO STOP RUNNING ONE MORE TIME BEFORE GETTING HOME. I PULLED THE DIAGNOSTIC CODES FROM THE CAR. IT FAILED WITH A P0345 CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR A CIRCUIT BANK 2. THIS SENSOR HAD A VOLUNTARY REPLACEMENT FROM INFINITI ON THE SAME YEAR MODEL CAR, EXCEPT OUR VIN NUMBER FALLS JUST OUTSIDE OF THE RANGE. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT SHOULD BE EXPANDED, AS THIS CAN CAUSE A FATAL ACCIDENT SHOULD IT FAIL AT THE WRONG TIME. THE CAR DIES, WHICH MEANS YOU LOSE THE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. I WILL REPLACE THE SENSORS AS THE DEALER I SPOKE WITH WOULD NOT COVER IT UNDER THE VOLUNTARY REPLACEMENT DUE TO THE VIN NOT BEING COVERED. THERE ARE 4 OF THESE SENSORS ON THIS CAR SO THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR FAILURE. PLEASE LOOK INTO GETTING THE RECALL FOR THIS PART EXPANDED TO COVER ALL CARS. THERE IS TOO MUCH AT STAKE TO NOT DO THAT. *TR

TODAY, I FOUND 2003 INFINITI G35 SEDAN LEAK OIL INTO SPARK PLUG HOLE. OIL LEAK INTO THE SPARK HOLE WOULD CAUSE ENGINE FIRE WITH HIGH VOLTAGE FROM IGNITION COILS. I ALSO FOUND THIS ISSUE WAS NOT LIMITED TO MY VEHICLE BUT MOST OF INFINITI/NISSAN VEHICLES HAD THIS PROBLEM. I BELIEVE NISSAN ALREADY HAS KNOWN THIS ISSUE. I HOPE NHTSA WOULD DO SOMETHING FOR ALL OF NISSAN/INFINITI VEHICLE OWNERS. *TR

THIRD BRAKE LIGHT IN MY 2003 INFINITI G35 IS NO GOOD . IM SCARED I CAN GET INTO A ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF IT, I FEEL NISSAN/INFINITI SHOULD RECALL THIS PROBLEM. I AM A MEMBER OF A ONLINE INFINITI FORUM AND SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS SAME CAR MODEL AND YEAR. *TR

THIRD BRAKE LIGHT IS OUT AND WILL NOT WORK ON THIS VEHICLE. THE OLD PART IS STILL AVAILABLE. *TR

THE 3RD BRAKE LIGHT ON MY 2003 INFINITI G35 DOES NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN PRESSING DOWN THE BRAKE PEDAL. AFTER READING MANY POST THIS IS A ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS FORCING SAFETY ISSUES AS WELL AS INSPECTION PROBLEMS. MEASURES NEEDS TO BE ENFORCED FOR A SOLUTION. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 INFINITI G35 SEDAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CENTER CONSOLE CONTROLS MALFUNCTIONED CAUSING THE AIR TO BLOW CONTINUOUSLY AND ALSO CAUSING ALL OF THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS TO MALFUNCTION. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE CENTER CONSOLE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER DID NOT SPECIFY WHAT'S CAUSED THE CENTER CONSOLE TO MALFUNCTION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE FRONT AND REAR DEFROSTER DOES NOT WORK IN COLD WEATHER WHICH IMPAIRED THE CONTACTS VISION. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

2003 INFINITI G35. THE RADIO, A/C, & HEAT CONTROLS GO OUT DUE TO A TERRIBLE MISTAKE BY THE ENGINEERS IN ROUTING THE RADIO AND CLIMATE CONTROLS TO ONE CIRCUIT BOARD. LIVING IN THE MID-WEST THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE BECAUSE I CANNOT DEFROST MY WINDOWS WHEN IT'S SNOWING. INFINITI ISSUED A VOLUNTARY RECALL, BUT MOST LIKELY MISSED AROUND 90,000 CARS. THIS IS A LARGE PROBLEM AND THEY DO NOTHING, IT'S A HUGE SAFETY RISK. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 INFINITI G35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, THE BRAKE AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED.

THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT ON MY CAR WORKS INTERMITTENTLY. THIS IS THE BRAKE LIGHT THAT RESIDES ON THE REAR ACCESSORY PACKAGE ON THE INSIDE OF THE CARS ALONG WITH THE SPEAKERS. THE LIGHTS ARE NOT REPLACEABLE IN THIS UNIT BECAUSE THEY ARE LED AND HAVE NOTICE MANY OTHER G35 WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND ITS AN OUTRAGEOUS 125 DOLLAR REPLACEMENT FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD LAST INDEFINITELY SINCE THEY ARE LEDS. *TR
