Six problems related to other fuel system tank assembly have been reported for the 2005 Infiniti G35. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I ran out of gas on my commute home from work. My gas hand read a quarter of a tank when I completely ran out of gas leaving me stranded on the interstate. Since this happened I've done some research and it's a common problem for G35 Infiniti's. They gave a recall on the Nissan and Infiniti SUV for this exact problem same year my 2005 Infiniti was made. The G35 sedan and coupe should be included in this recall.
I have 118k miles on my vehicle. I recently have had many issues with my fuel gauge. I've read hundreds of complaints online regarding the instrument cluster and fuel gauge issues. This is very dangerous because the other day I almost lost control of my vehicle I think because it was almost out of fuel. The gas gauge read over 1/2 tank. I called the local Infinitilupient and they said there were no recalls. There should be. Hundreds of people have said that this happens around 120,000. This needs to be a recall.
Fuel guage not reading correct level. Fuel needle is fluctuating up and down whenever it wants. Ex1. . . Gas light comes on with needle on e empty. . . Car die. . . Then put gas full til gas is spillin out of car. And needle goes full just under the f full line. Sometime goes by driving and the needle will fluctuates down to half way mark. Shut off car. . . Go shopping and come back start car and needle at 3/4 mark. Drive hm. Shut off. Start car next day and needle at 3/4 mark again. Not accurate as u can tell. After drivin awahile the gas would go down and gas light comes on. Drive home. Turn car off. Nxt morning start car and the needle is at half way to 3/4 way mark gain. This not possible bcause yesterday the needle was low and gas light came on. Now its back at 3/4 mark. Sometime its at 1/2 way. Sometime its at 1/4 mark. Three times my car died on me due to no gas. . . While the needle is at 1/4, 1/2, or 3/4 way. And the gas light did not come on either when it died on me b. C needle was above the e mark. This is a very dangerous and a safety recall issue that needs to b address.

The contact owns a 2005 Infiniti G35. The contact stated that while driving approximately 10 mph, the fuel gauge displayed a full tank however the fuel tank was empty, which caused the vehicle to stall. Additionally, the speedodometer reading fluctuated. The failure occurred on numerous occasions. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer who was unable to duplicate the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 124,466. The VIN was unavailable.
Fuel gauge registers over half a tank when tank is actually very near empty. When tank is filled up, gauge goes to just above full, and slowly decreases to just over half a tank as the tank nears empty. I have to watch my mileage and guess to know when I'm almost out of gas. This seems unsafe.
The vehicle was a 2005 Infiniti G35. On 11/8/12, I was driving on the freeway in the middle lane going approximately 65 mph and the car suddenly lost all acceleration. It dropped from 65 mph to 0 mph within minutes and the car seized up and was not responsive to pressing on the gas pedal. I was barely able to get to the right shoulder without causing an accident. The shoulder was extremely narrow and the car was immobile. The gas gauge on the dash said there was still a quarter of a tank of gas left. I walked to the gas station and put a gallon of gas in the tank to see if it would start up. As soon as I did that, the car started up with no problem. I went to fill up my tank and when I got there, I poured about 16 gallons of gas. I'm afraid that this could happen at any time, and I would be stranded with my car in jeopardy of getting hit. This gas fuel system problem happened on 11/8/12.
