Steering lock inplace had to break the ignition to drive my wheel was at 1:00 my tires straight.
The contact owned a 2005 Infiniti G35. While driving 35 mph, the steering wheel became difficult to maneuver. The contact lost control and crashed into a tree. The front driver side air bag failed to deploy. The contact sustained head and neck injuries that required medical attention. A police report was filed. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was destroyed and towed. The VIN was not available. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000.
Made a right turn onto a round about street and when I tried to turn left my steering wheel locked straight like if the car was parked. The wheels wouldn't turn and I hit a parked truck where a person was working on. He did get injured but I am not aware of the exact injuries he sustained. I was driving a 2005 G35 sedan which I've had for around 4 months.
My 2005 Infiniti G35 unexpectedly shut off while I was driving it today. Thankfully, I was not on the freeway at the time. The service engine soon, vdc off, and slip lights all came on. I tried to restart the car, and only after multiple attempts (about five) did the car start, and I was able to park in a safe place. Something very similar happened with this car in July 2010. After the July 2010 incident, I had to replace a couple of sensors, which cost over $1,000. I did not expect to have to relive the experience of having my car shut off without warning while driving. I believe that the older (2003) version of the Infiniti G35 had a recall for a similar problem. It is unacceptable that Infiniti / Nissan has not found a permanent solution to this problem. I had my car towed to an Infiniti dealership this evening, and I await the diagnostic reading tomorrow. I will be petrified to drive my car now.
Approximately 3 months ago I purchased a 2005 Infiniti G35 for my daughter. Two weeks ago the car began to shut completely down while she was driving it with no warning whatsoever - regardless of speed. There would be a complete loss of power, including power steering, so it would be difficult for her to get the car off the road before attempting to restart it. This problem has continued to occur at random every time the car is driven creating a very dangerous situation; particularly, for a teenage driver. I googled the car's issues, and learned that Nissan has a recall on 2005 Infiniti G35's for the replacement of a camshaft position sensor which has been described as causing this loss of power problem. I called Nissan to see if my daughter's car was on the recall list and was told it was not. An Infiniti dealer ran a diagnostic on the car this morning and confirmed that the car's camshaft position sensor had failed and needs to be replaced. I believe Nissan should honor this recall on every 2005 Infiniti G35 vehicle - not just those vehicles whose VIN numbers appear on the recall list - especially those vehicles who have had the sensor fail. The repair totals $425. 00 and I am seeking reimbursement of that amount from Nissan.
Tl-the contact owns a 2005 Infiniti G35. The contact stated that while driving 30 mph, the steering wheel became difficult and was unable to engage the brakes and accelerator pedals. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic they were unable to diagnosed the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 100,000. Lb.
I purchased a 2005 G35 coupe in July of 2005. Since taking receipt of the vehicle the car has pulled right. This occurs on all road surfaces and is more pronounced at higher speeds. The dealer told me the car was aligned to factory specifications. Then they changed out the tires and wheels with ones from a loaner car that didn't pull (and had similar miles). Then they told me it was due to road crown. The last time (4th) time I took it in they said all Infiniti's pull to the right. A quick survey among four other Infiniti owners at work revealed that none of their Infinitis pull right. The dealer refuses to rectify the problem. [side note: there were service bulletins for the 2003 and 2004 G35's for the same problem. ].
