STEREO AUDIO CUT OFF AND A/C TURNED ON TO FULL BLAST. CONSOLE CONTROLS AND TEMPERATURE CONTROLS STOPPED WORKING. TURNED OFF CAR THEN ON TO SEE IF IT WOULD FIX THE ISSUE, BUT ONCE IT WAS ON THE A/C TURNED TO FULL BLAST AGAIN AND CONTROLS DON'T WORK. THIS ISSUE HAS MY MOTOR RUNNING HARDER BC THE A/C IS ON CAUSING MY CAR TO OVERHEAT WHILE DRIVING UPHILL. EVER SINCE THE CONTROLS HAVE NOT WORKED CONSTANTLY FOR OVER A YEAR. *TR

I GOT MY CAR IN APRIL 2013 NOT A YEAR YET. I WAS AT WORK WHEN THEY SAID THE LIGHT STARTED TO BLINK AND THEN THE ALARM STARTED TO GO OFF WHEN THE SECURITY CAME BY AROUND IT WAS SMOKING AND ON FIRE IT WAS COMING FROM THE HOOD. THE POLICE AND FIRE STATION SAID THEY THINK IT WAS A ELECTRIC PROBLEMS. I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT I SHOULD DO NOW. *TR

AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, I WAS DRIVING IT AROUND FOR ABOUT A WEEK. I CAME TO A STOP ONE DAY AND MY OIL LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND ASKED THEM TO CHECK IT. THE DIPSTICK IS VERY HARD TO READ, UNLIKE MOST CARS, LONG STORY SHORT THE DEALERSHIP CHANGED IT. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THEY DID WHEN I GOT IT BECAUSE OF THE COLOR. EVER SINCE I HAVE BEEN KEEPING TRACK OF THE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE THAT I HAVE BEEN HAVING. I HAVE A AFTERMARKET WARRANTY BUT THEY ARE NO LONGER HELPING ME WITH MY ISSUES (OR FEEL AS THOUGH I AM NOT BEING HELPED) WITH MY CAR AT SUCH LOW MILES I HAVE LOOKED AND THERE ARE SEVERAL ISSUES WITH VQ35DE MOTORS WITH OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUES THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED. I HAVE AND AM HAVING SEVER ISSUES WITH OIL CONSUMPTION. I JUST HAS A COMPRESSION TEST AND I HAVE #'S BUT I HAVE TO CALL THE DEALERSHIP, THEY ALSO JUST DID A LEAK DOWN TEST TO SEE IF IT MIGHT BE THE RINGS JUST IN CASE THE COMPRESSION TEST DIDN'T GET IT. ** I NOW CURRENTLY BURN 1.2 QUARTS OF OIL IN 800 MILES. WAS THE LAST AND LATEST OIL CONSUMPTION TEST THAT THE DEALERSHIP HAS RUN. AFTER PASSING BOTH TESTS. THE MOST I HAVE SEEN MY CAR USE IS 3QTS IN 3K. NOT GOOOD! I CURRENTLY HAVE 98895 ON THE CAR RIGHT NOW. PLEASE IF YOU CAN HELP :) THANK YOU! *TR

AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. IT WAS BASICALLY A MOVING PARKED CAR!!! THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED SO IT WAS REALLY HARD TO PULL OVER. THANK GOD I WAS ON A LOCAL STREET. I DIDN'T FORCE THE STEERING TOO MUCH B/C THAT COULD AFFECT THE POWER STEERING. ONCE ON THE SIDE, THE CAR TOOK REALLY LONG TO START UP, I MEAN ABOUT 5 SECONDS FROM HEARING THE CRANK TO ACTUAL STARTUP. USUALLY IT?S INSTANTANEOUS. NOW, THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON, VDC OFF, AND SLIP LIGHTS WERE ON. I GOT MY CAR CHECKED OUT WITH A SCANNER/DIAGNOSIS AND IT RETURNED CODE ?P0340 CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR.? I JUST FIND IT REALLY HARD TO BELIEVE NISSAN/INFINITI DOES NOT COVER SUCH A DANGEROUS PROBLEM. I CAN UNDERSTAND THAT EVERY CAR HAS MECHANICAL/ELECTRICAL ISSUES BUT FOR A CAR TO STOP WORKING ON THE ROAD LIKE THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE BUT ACCORDING TO NISSAN/INFINITI MY CAR VIN IS NOT FOR THIS CAMPAIGN SO I WAS REJECTED. ITB03-072 SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN 2002 Q45, 2003 M45, G35, 2002-2003 I35; VOLUNTARY RECALL CAMPAIGN ENGINE SENSORS INFINITI HAS DETERMINED THAT SOME 2002-2003 MODEL YEAR INFINITI VEHICLES MAY HAVE A DEFECT WHICH RELATES TO MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY. THE ENGINE MIGHT STOP RUNNING WHILE BEING DRIVEN IF THE CRANK POSITION SENSOR OR CAM POSITION SENSOR FAILS. THIS MAY ALSO RESULT IN THE ?SERVICE ENGINE SOON? LIGHT COMING ON OR REDUCED ENGINE POWER. IF THE ENGINE STOPS RUNNING WHILE DRIVING, THIS COULD RESULT IN A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING. *TR

THE CAR SIMPLY DIED AFTER PULLING ON TO A BUSY HIGHWAY. IT WOULD NOT START FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. AFTER TAKING THE CAR TO THE INFINITY DEALERSHIP I WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS A CAM SHIFT SENSOR FAILURE. NOT JUST ONE, BUT TWO SENSORS. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS MODEL BUT I CANNOT GET THE INFINITY TO COMPLY WITH THIS RECALL AND THE SUBSEQUENTLY CHARGED ME $500+ TO REPLACE THE TWO FOULED PARTS. VERY DISAPPOINTING. *JS
