ENGINE, SEATS
VISITED INFINITY DEALERSHIP IN REGARDS TO SPORADIC ENGINE STALLING WHILE IN 1ST GEAR ONLY TO LATER FIND THAT A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED ON SAME YEAR AND MODEL OF MY VEHICLE. VEHICLE STALLED ON HIGHWAY NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE IN 1ST GEAR. NO ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON ELUDING TO THE FACT THAT THEIR IS AN ISSUE. ISSUES HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR MONTHS AND DEALERSHIP IS AWARE. SUSPICIOUSLY, MY VEHICLE WAS NOT NAMED BUT A VERY BASIC SEARCH ONLINE DOES UNCOVER THAT NUMEROUS CONSUMERS HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS PUTTING CONSUMERS IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION WHICH COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. SAME SCENARIO WITH MY PASSENGER SEAT WORKING SPORADICALLY.

ENGINE
ALMOST DAILY STALLING AT LOW SPEEDS. WHEN COMING TO A SLOWDOWN, THE VEHICLE WILL STALL WITH NO ERROR CODES OR LIGHTS GIVEN EXCEPT FOR POWER COMPLETELY TURNING OFF. THIS HAS RESULTED IN NUMEROUS NEAR MISSES SINCE STEERING IS THEN NOT POWERED AND AT TIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. RESTART IS POSSIBLE BY PUTTING THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND RESTARTING. I WORRY THAT THIS CAN CAUSE A WRECK WHEN STALLING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION WITH TRAFFIC COMING. AT TIMES, WHEN COMING TO A SLOWDOWN, THE CAR WILL STUTTER AS IF RPMS DROP VERY LOW BUT DOES NOT STALL. THE STALL AND NEAR STALL HAPPENS FREQUENTLY.

AIR BAGS
PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT INDICATES "AIRBAG OFF" WHEN THERE IS AN ADULT OCCUPANT SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT (WEIGHING 140+ POUNDS). THIS HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY WHILE STATIONARY, IN MOTION, AND UNDER VARIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES. THE VEHICLE HAS 137,000 MILES ON IT AND THE ISSUE HAS BECOME MORE FREQUENT. THE ISSUE WAS FIRST NOTICED YEARS AGO BUT WAS NOT AS FREQUENT.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
THE DASHBOARD NEAR THE WINDSHIELD IS MELTING CAUSING A STICKY RESIDUE WHICH CAUSES A GLARE WHEN DRIVING. THE GLARE IS SO BLINDING THAT I HATE TO DRIVE WHEN IT'S SUNNY OUTSIDE AND IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. I'VE READ AND SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE REGARDING MY MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR BUT NISSAN IS REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THESE COMPLAINTS AND ISSUE A RECALL. THERE APPEARS TO BE ISSUED RECALLS FOR CERTAIN MODELS SUCH FX35, M35 AND SOME ALTIMAS BUT THE ISSUE APPEARS TO BE MUCH LARGER PROBLEM ACROSS THE BOARD. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE PEOPLE START TO LOSE THEIR LIVES OVER THIS EGREGIOUSNESS AND NEGLIGENCE AND THE GOVERNMENT NEEDS/SHOULD FORCE NISSAN TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SOMEONE DIES BECAUSE OF THIS.

ENGINE
THERE IS HESITATION, ALMOST STALLING, WHEN I AM EITHER GOING SLOW, WHEN I AM TAKING OFF FROM A STOPPED POSITION, OR WHEN I AM GOING UP A HILL BEHIND VEHICLES AT A LIGHT, SO I AM STARTING AND STOPPING BECAUE WE ARE NOT GETTING THROUGH THE LIGHT. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AND NOT JUST A BULLETIN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. IF I TRY TO PULL OUT AND MY CAR HESITATES, STOPS, OR STALLS IT CAN PUT ME AND OTHER DRIVERS IN DANGER. I CANNOT UNDERSTAND HOW THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN MADE A RECALL. I'VE HAD IT FIXED ONCE ALREADY AND THE ISSUE IS HAPPENING AGAIN. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE BULLETIN # ITB11-018. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR HAVING A SAFE VEHICLE TO DRIVE BECAUSE THEY MADE IT WRONG. HESITATION IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE THE CAR TO NOT TAKE OFF PROPERLY FROM LIGHTS OR PULLING OUT ONTO STREETS. PLEASE RESOLVE THIS ISSUE QUICKLY. THIS HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE TIME I DRIVE THE CAR. THANK YOU.

ENGINE, SUSPENSION
BURNS OIL AT 5 QUARTS A WEEK OR MORE. PISTON RINGS ARE DEFECTIVE. COMMON FOR THIS CAR I'VE READ AND THERE WAS A RECALL THAT INFINITI ISSUED BUT THIS HAS NOT INCLUDED MY VEHICLE. SUSPENSION ALSO WEARS DOWN BRAND NEW TIRES IN LESS THAN 3 MONTHS. MY BOYFRIEND HAS THE EXACT SAME CAR AND THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH HIS VEHICLE ALSO.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
INFINITY G35 SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING VCD LIGHT COMES ON SLIP LIGHT COMES ON AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. THE G35 DIES, LOW POWER, OR SPUTTERS AT LOW OR SLOWING ENGINE SPEED E.G. WHEN SLOWING FOR TRAFFIC SIGNALS, OR TURNING (USUALLY ACROSS A LANE OF TRAFFIC!). I HAVE HAD IT HAPPEN ON THE INTERSTATE IT WAS IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING A SHARP RELEASE OF THE ACCELERATOR, AS WHEN PUNCHING IT TO PASS THEN RELEASE, OR REACHING SPEED LIMIT, AND RELEASE, FROM ACCELERATION LANE. ONCE RIGHT AFTER ENTERING THE FREEWAY, I WAS SETTING MY CRUISE CONTROL WHEN IT SPUTTERED AND I WAS AFRAID IT WAS GOING TO DIE BUT IT FINALLY KICKED IN WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL. I DON'T KNOW THE ECM CODE BUT IT INDICATED: CAM SHAFT POSITION SENSOR. I WONDER IF THERE ARE ANY OTHERS WITH THIS CODE OR PROBLEM? LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, MINE IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY OF THE RECALLS. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO THE DEALER SHOP SEVERAL TIMES WITH THE COMPLAINT OF STRONG GAS SMELL PRIOR TO THIS CODE/ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON. THEY TELL ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. I'M NOT SURE WHETHER THIS IS CONNECTED TO THE CAM SHAFT SENSOR OR NOT, BUT THE SMELL OF GAS INSIDE THE CABIN IS VERY STRONG WHILE DRIVING AT TIME. THE GAS FUMES CAN BE SMELLED OUT SIDE THE VEHICLE WHEN NOT IN MOTION EITHER AFTER JUST STARTING OR PARKING THE VEHICLE.

AIR BAGS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE DASHBOARD OF THE COUPE 2005 INFINITI G35 IS MELTING AND BECOMES STICKY REGARDLESS OF CLEANING. TODAY I NOTICED THAT THE DASHBOARD HAS BECOME CRACKED AND COMPROMISED, WHICH MAY LEAD TO AN AIRBAG ISSUE DOWN THE LINE. ASIDE, FROM THE AIRBAG, I BELIEVE THIS MATERIALS COULD BE HAZARDOUS AS THEY MUST BE OF LOW QUALITY TO "MELT" WHEN IT ISN'T IN MUCH SUNLIGHT. THE VEHICLE IS ALWAYS GARAGED EVERY DAY AND HAS ONLY AROUND 70000 MILES. I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD. UPON LOOKING AT FORUM AND PICTURES FROM OTHER INFINITI AND NISSAN OWNERS, IT LOOKS AS THOUGH I AM NOT ALONE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE FURTHER.

RECALL NUMBER R2022 INFINITI RECALL R3021 THERE IS A RECALL FOR SOME INFINITIS BUT NOT MINE BUT IM HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AS THIS RECALL A FAILED CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR AND FAILED CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR LIKE ON THE RECALL ABOVE EXCEPT MY VIN DID NOT MATCH THE VEHICLES THAT WERE RECALLED ALTHOUGH THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME MY VEHICLE FALLS INTO THE MAKE MODEL AND YEAR OF WHICH THE RECALL WAS MADE. OUT OF NOWHERE MY CAR WILL SHUT OFF AT HIGH RATES OF SPEED AND AT LOW RATES OF SPEED WITHOUT ANY WARNING MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AS WELL AS OTHER LIGHTS AND THE CODE IS FOR THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR FAULTING AND THE CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSORS FAULTING. THE CAR CAN BE IN MOTION AT 5MPH OR EVEN AT 70MPH AND THE CAR WILL COMNPLETELY DIE WITH NO CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE AS THE STERRING WHEEL LOCKS UP COMPLETELY. NOT SURE WHY OTHER INFINITI G35 COUPES WERE COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL BUT IM HAVING THE VERY SAME ISSUES AS THE OTHERS WITH FAILED SENSORS

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SEATS
MY CAR SEAT MOVED ALL THE FORWARD WHILE DRIVING TO WORK IN DENVER METRO'BENCH AND BACK SUPPORT BOTH PUSHED ME A FEW INCHES FROM THE STEERING WHEEL. I HAD TO MOVE MY LEG WITH MY HAND TO REACH THE BRAKE PEDAL. ONE WEEK LATER, MY CAR HORN BEGAN BEEPING AND WOULD NOT STOP WHILE DRIVING. MY VDC AND BRAKE LIGHTS NOW STAY ON CONSTANTLY BECAUSE THE ANTI SKID DOES NOT WORK'I ALMOST WRECKED ON A SNOWY HIGHWAY. THE FRONT TIRES WEAR EXPONENTIALLY FASTER THAN THE BACK TIRES. I HAD BLOWOUTS TWO SEPARATE TIMES ON THE INTERSTATE. THE FRONT WINDOWS ARE NOW GLUED SHUT BECAUSE THEY ROLL DOWN ON THEIR OWN. THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON NOW TOO. I REALIZE IT'S AN OLD CAR; I BOUGHT IT FOR $8,000 4 YEARS AGO WHEN IT HAD ~95,000 MILES. NOW IT HAS ~140,000. THE LEVEL OF QUICK DECLINE IS TRULY FRIGHTENING THOUGH. I DON'T DRIVE MY 2003 INFINIT G35 ANY MORE AND AM APPREHENSIVE TO SELL IT TO ANYONE ELSE. THE CAR I LOVED IS NOW LIKE DRIVING A HORROR MOVIE.
