2003 INFINITI M45 Complaints

PURCHASED NEW INF. M45 WHEN CAR REACHED ABOUT 24000 MILES. I TOOK IT IN TO BE SERVICED. INFINITI SERVICE WAS UNABLE TO REPRODUCE PROBLEM. WOULD CALL ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS INFORMING DEALERSHIP THAT THEIR PRODUCT WAS DEFECTIVE. I FINALLY GOT TONS OF PROBLEMS (PERFORATED LEATHER SEATS HAD MESH COMING, CD CHANGER JAMMED, AC COMPRESSOR BUSTED, BELTS ON THE MOTOR HAD TO BE REPLACED, GLOVE BOX HAD TO BE READJUSTED, HOOD HAD TO BE READJUSTED TO STOP THE SQUEEKING WHEN CLOSING THE DOORS, FRONT WINDOW GUIDES AND STABILIZER-INNER DOOR HAD TO BE REPLACED TO STOP ALL THE SQUEALING WHEN LETTING THE WINDOWS UP/DOWN) AND SCHEDULE ANOTHER VISIT TO SEE IF THE ENGINE/EXHAUST PROBLEM COULD BE REPAIRED. THE DEALERSHIP HAD MY CAR FOR 3 WEEKS...AND CLEANED OUT THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER AT THEIR COST AND THE DAY I GOT IT BACK, IT WAS STILL SMOKING OUT THE PIPES. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY KNOW NOTHING ELSE TO DO BUT TO REPLACE THE MOTOR IF IT'S CONSUMING OIL. I FOUND THESE OTHER COMPLAINTS WHICH ALREADY STATE THAT INFINITI KNOWS ABOUT THIS OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM AND APPEARS TO BE GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND. IF THE MOTOR IS REPLACED WITH ANOTHER NISSAN V8, THE SAME PROBLEM IS LIKELY TO REOCCUR. THEIR PRODUCT IS DEFECTIVE.*AK

VEHICLE CONSUMES 1 QUART OF MOTOR OIL EVERY 1000 MILES. IT CAUSES CARBON BUILDUP IN THE COMBUSTION CHAMBERS. I WAS TOLD I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO GET THE CARBON CLEANED PERIODICALLY. VEHICLE HAS 24000 MILES AND IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. MANUFACTURER SAYS THIS TYPE OF CONSUMPTION IS NORMAL AND DOES NOT WANT TO ANYTHING. SERVICE REP STATED THAT THEY ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES WITH ALL MODELS WITH THIS V8. *LA

2003 INFINITI M45 CONSUMES 4 ML OF OIL AFTER ONLY 1000 MILES AND TOLD BY DEALERSHIO AND MANUFACTURER THAT THIS IS NORMAL.*AK

MICHELIN PILOT HX MXM4 ALL SEASON TIRES FAILED IN 1" WET SNOW CONDITION. MICHELIN ISREFUSING TO ACCEPT TIRES DO NOT WORK IN SNOW. THEY WERE SOLD AS ALL SEASON AND HAVE A M+S ON THE SIDE FOR MUD AND SNOW. MY CAR SLID OFF THE CROWN OF THE ROAD INTO THE GRASS. THE CONDITIONS WERE NOT ICY. ALL OF OUR OTHER CARS HAD NO TROUBLE. I WANT MICHELIN TO COMPENSATE ME FOR THE SNOW TIRES I HAD TO BUY AND INSTALL SO THAT I COULD DRIVE IN SNOW FO A TOTAL OF $800.*AK
