13 problems related to air bag have been reported for the 2005 Infiniti FX35. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The airbag was recalled on may 23, 2016 due to the takata defective airbags. Till today Infiniti has failed to provide a replacement for the defective airbag citing no available parts. Their advice is only not to sit in the seat where the defective airbag is present which is not an acceptable solution. I am not sure how much longer I need to wait or if they are just playing the waiting game for my car to be retired before they need to do work on it.

Takata recall. I received a notice from infinity about recall 16v-349 in August or September of 2016. I called my local dealer and they said they were expecting the new airbags by the end of the month so I set an appointment, because they did not receive the air bags I have made new appointments each month since September through January of this year but they still don't have the parts. They called other dealers but they only had parts for 2007 and later, not 2005. It appears that my local dealer has made every effort, and it's the corporate office of infinity that doesn't send the dealer the parts to complete the recall. Can you help my dealer get the parts needed to complete the recall?.

Safety recall 16v-349: the front passenger airbag could rupture unexpectedly, "causing injury or death. " my Infiniti retailer has failed to resolve this issue, and told me on my most recent call that it was the airbag manufacturer's issue, and I should contact them. Instead, I am contacting you.

I recently found out about a recall on my vehicle it has since than been over a month and yet my dealership has not notified me to fix the issue at the moment I am not allowed to ride anyone in my passenger seat which is a huge inconvenient for me and my family.
I have not experienced any problems with the airbag and my VIN has not been specifically identified for the takata recall. That though is the issue. In view of the inifinti recall of similar model cars in high humidity states, and NHTSA's call for a full recall of the takata airbags, as well as Toyota, gm & Honda's recent expansion of the recall, I do not understand why Infiniti has not taken similar additional action. I live in virginia - an area of high humidity for at least 3 months per year. A recent death occurred to a virginia resident related to the airbags. I drive to florida several timaes a year spending as many as 4-6 weeks there annually. It seems quite reckless for the company not to be acting on this recall. As it stands I have been reluctant to drive the vehicle for my safety and that of my passengers, especially since toyata is advising consumers to have the airbag disabled and post warning not to sit in the passenger side. While I could do a similar thing until Infiniti wakes up and acts, I cannot see why I should have to absorb the cost for it. Please help if you can. I appredciate the opportunity to vent regarding this issue.
