| Hood problems | |
| Paint problems |
Purchased new inf. M45 when car reached about 24000 miles. I took it in to be serviced. Infiniti service was unable to reproduce problem. Would call on several occasions informing dealership that their product was defective. I finally got tons of problems (perforated leather seats had mesh coming, cd changer jammed, ac compressor busted, belts on the motor had to be replaced, glove box had to be readjusted, hood had to be readjusted to stop the squeeking when closing the doors, front window guides and stabilizer-inner door had to be replaced to stop all the squealing when letting the windows up/down) and schedule another visit to see if the engine/exhaust problem could be repaired. The dealership had my car for 3 weeks. . . And cleaned out the combustion chamber at their cost and the day I got it back, it was still smoking out the pipes. The dealership says they know nothing else to do but to replace the motor if it's consuming oil. I found these other complaints which already state that Infiniti knows about this oil consumption problem and appears to be giving me the run around. If the motor is replaced with another Nissan v8, the same problem is likely to reoccur. Their product is defective.

I am the owner of a white 2003 Infiniti M45. A few years ago, I noticed a small chip right above he windshield on the roof of the car. I contacted Infiniti back then to see if there were any recalls, but there were not. At this point, there is no paint covering the top of the vehicle. As of today, Infiniti still has no recalls/campaigns for chipped paint of this particular model. But, I did find during research that there new models with defective (white) paint that has been reported. The vehicle was never damage, I have seen a couple other 2003 M45's with chipping paint. Which would leave be to believe that there must have been defective paint. My vehicle is unrecognizable. This vehicle had been garaged kept and not driven for 1-2 years, yet the paint continued to peel. I got an estimate to have the car painted, which would have been close to $4,000! I would just like for this to be researched through your agency if at all possible. Thanks.
