general problems of the 2005 Infiniti G35

The contact owns a 2005 Infiniti G35. The contact stated that the seat failed to recline. The service engine light was illuminated. Upon investigation the contact linked the failure to NHTSA campaign number: 10v175000 (air bags, seats). The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who determined that the cause was a faulty fuse. The fuse was replaced, but the failure recurred. The contact called the local dealer, who confirmed the recall repair was previously completed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact called another local dealer, douglas Infiniti (430 morris Ave, summit, NJ 07901), but there was no response. The manufacturer was contacted, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 190,000.

I think the clutch wasn't connected right because when I drove it the clutch fell off the car and now I cant drive anyware.

The contact owns a 2005 Infiniti G35. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle locked up and stalled on four occasions. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. The check engine and slip warning lights were illuminated. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to NHTSA. The contact researched the matter and stated the failure was due to a possible camshaft failure. The approximate failure mileage was 130,000.

The fuel gauge is not reading correctly, and I have to rely on knowing my mileage and how much I last filled in my tank. I have to keep the car running longer than necessary to even duplicate the problem, and when I do the gas gauge just suddenly starts dropping. And if for some reason I even let my gas get low enough to have the low fuel lamp come on, it's almost too late and I barely make it to a gas station. I have not had the issue reproduced/confirmed by any independent servicer. I have seen in many G35 forums that this is an issue that has not had a recall yet. All of the other models for Nissan/Infiniti 2005 were recalled for the fuel sensor in 2010, but not the G35/g37 model. If this keeps happening I will eventually be involved in an accident when my gas runs out unexpectedly on the highway.

Service engine soon, vdc off, and slip lights all come on from start up of vehicle. Engine bogs a lot, specially when slightly more agresive acceleration. I changed hid wire by pulling out the headlight unit and the next time I drove it this happened.

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.

While driving the car the engine lights come on and the car shuts completely off, no power at all, no control of car at all. I almost had an accident. The car does start again. This has happened two more times since. Very scary. This is a huge safety concern. It happens without notice. I called Infiniti and was told my car was not manufactured at the plant they were calling recalls for. Well excuse me Infiniti your problem is wide spread and extremely dangerous (my infinity case number for this problem * well as my passenger airbag sensor problem they are not willing to address is 15697563). They informed me the airbag sensor was replaced in 2010 - it was not. I have the car-facts to prove this. Infiniti stated to bring my car back to norwood, massachusetts Infiniti for a diagnostic. I will do this this week but sadly expect the same run around I have received before. This car between the two safety issues I have reported above is at extreme crash and injury risk.

I was pulling out of a parking space - put car from reverse into drive - engine suddenly raced to red line. My foot was not on the accelerator at this moment. Even with maximum pressure on brake pedal car moved forward to other parked cars and would not return to idle. I turned off ignition. Car stopped 12 inches from a parked car. When restarted, car behaved normally and I have been unable to reproduce incident. Very dangerous problem!.
