Two problems related to power train have been reported for the 2012 Infiniti G37. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
This vehicle has a generic problem with acceleration: under some circumstances, especially at low speed when the accelerator pedal is pushed hard for rapid acceleration, the car will not accelerate, but hesitate, for almost 2 seconds, before finally accelerating. In some circumstances, this can be a serious safety issue: merging into (rapidly moving) traffic, seeking to cross an intersection, striving to avoid inattentive or careless drivers, etc. I have complained about this repeatedly to the dealership. They say it is a transmission issue, but they admit it is a known issue. Yet nothing has been done. I regard this as so serious that I am ready to sell the vehicle (tho we like it in every other respect): an oncoming train, or any other vehicle traveling 60 mph, travels 176 feet in 2 seconds, while we are sitting in the car going nowhere. !.
Did not bring back the gear to park and pressed the start button. Left the vehicle not hearing the very weak signal. Wrote to manufacturer about this design issue. They did not care, even they responded that it is the way it is designed. Any driver with european or manual gear background will make the same mistake. The car was positioned on a slope, in a garage after I arrived at my destination. An agent had the reflex to jump in the car (I left the door opened) and stop the vehicle. Without this initiative, the car would have crashed against another car down the slope (very steep in a new york garage) and get the whole front crashed and the other car's side. But in a street anywhere, it can just kill someone!.
