SERVICE BRAKES, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 INFINITI G35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO RECOMMENDED REPROGRAMMING THE ECM AND THE TCM SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN: 03V455000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

ENGINE
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

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
FUEL GAUGE READS INACCURATELY CAUSING VEHICLE TO RUN OUT OF FUEL. VERY COMMON PROBLEM ON THIS MODEL ACROSS THE YEARS OF 2003 - 2006. NISSAN HAS ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM WITH SOME OF THEIR MODELS, BUT NOT ALL. IF VEHICLE RUNS OUT OF FUEL, IT CAN DISABLE THE VEHICLE CAUSING INCREASED STEERING EFFORT AND POSSIBLY A CRASH. *TR

AIR BAGS
WHILE DRIVING NORMALLY ON THE HIGHWAY, THE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT ON THE DASH CAME ON AND STARTED TO BLINK. AFTER STOPPING AND TURNING THE CAR OFF AND ON, THE LIGHT STILL BLINKS. TRYING TO PERFORM AN ECU RESET, THE BLINKING STOPS FOR ABOUT 1 MINUTE AND RESUMES. TOOK THE CAR TO THE INFINITI DEALERSHIP IN PALM SPRINGS, CA AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE RECALL HAS ALREADY BEEN APPLIED TO MY VEHICLE. THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS AND I WAS INFORMED THAT IF I DON'T FIX IT, THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. IF THE RECALL HAS BEEN APPLIED, THEN THE PROBLEM SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
NOT SURE THIS IS SOMETHING YOU WOULD PURSUE BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET SATISFACTION FROM LAKE NORMAN INFINITI LOCALLY OR THEIR NATIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE SUPPORT DESK. I HAVE A 2006 INFINITI COUPE WITH 24K MILES ON IT. I HAD AN ISSUE WITH WHAT WAS DETERMINED TO BE THE COOLING FANS FOR THAT CAR. I WAS TOLD BY THE PARTS MANAGER(JOHN) AT THE DEALERSHIP THAT CAR HAS KNOWN ISSUES WITH THE COOLING FANS. THE SERVICE MANAGER (VICTOR) SENT ME TO THE NATIONAL TEAM. THE CAR WENT INTO SERVICE ON 08/05/06. THE PART FAILED ON OR ABOUT 08/15/14. I AM BEING TOLD BY THE NATIONAL TEAM THAT THE PART HAD A 8 YR ' HARD' WARRANTY ON IT. THERE HAVE SINCE BEEN DENIALS ABOUT THE PART BEING DEFECTIVE SINCE MY INITIAL CONTACT WITH LAKE NORMAN DEALERSHIP. I WAS THERE IN MARCH OF 2014 FOR SERVICE AND WAS NEVER COMMUNICATED AN ISSUE WITH THAT PART. THE CAR HAS LOW MILEAGE AS IT SITS IN THE GARAGE MOST THE TIME. I WAS DRIVING IT TO WILMINGTON WHEN I SAW THE FIRST EVIDENCE OF A PROBLEM ON 08/16. AS A RESULT OF THE ISSUE, I HAD TO REPLACE THE COOLING FANS AND THE RADIATOR ON THE CAR. *TR

MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND I HAD IT FIXED UNDER THE RECALL. A SHORT WHILE AFTER THAT, IT CAME BACK ON AND WAS TOLD I NEEDED AN AIRBAG MODULE. I FIND IT WEIRD THAT MY VEHICLE AND A LOT OF OTHER INFINITI G35S HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM IN THIS ORDER. ALSO EVERY TIME I LEFT DEALERSHIP, A WEEK AFTER, I REALIZED THE THEY HAD DAMAGED THE BRACKETS THAT HOLD THE PLASTIC COVER TO THE FRONT OF THE SEATS. *TR
