2004 Infiniti G35

HELLO I PURCHASED A 2004 INFINITI G35 SEDAN FROM STAR MAX IN ORLANDO FL EAST COLONIAL DRIVE I'VE ONLY HAD IT 3 DAYS TOPS , FIRST OF ALL I LEFT AND THE GAS GAUGE ISN'T WORKING OR THE SPEEDOMETER , ALSO MY RADIO KEEPS GOING IN AND OUT MY LEFT WINDOW SEEMS TO GO UP AND DOWN WHEN IT WANTS TOO, MY TIRE PRESSURE LIGHTS ON AND MY CARS MAKING A VERY FUNNY ROARING NOISE IN THE BACK. ALSO WHEN I GO TO MAKE TURNS ,MY WHEEL JUST KEEPS TURNING ON ITS OWN AND HARD TO TURN BACK STRAIGHT IT LOCKS UP . AND I BELIEVE THERE MAY BE A FUEL PUMP ISSUE AS WELL I'VE SPOKEN TO SEVERAL SALES MEN THERE AND COMPLAINED SAYING I NEED TO FIX THINGS THE RIGHT WAY OR I NEED A DIFFERENT CAR IM PAYING $325 A MONTH WAY OUT OF MY BUDGET ON A BUY HERE PAY HERE CAR THAT'S NOT EVEN WORTH IT AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME I NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS FAST! *TR

CAR FALTERED AT NORMAL TRAFFIC SPEED, THREATENED TO STOP RUNNING, SHIFTED AWKWARDLY, DROVE ERRATICALLY -- TO THE POINT THAT THE VEHICLE SEEMED A DANGER TO MYSELF AND OTHER DRIVERS -- THEN WAS DIFFICULT TO START ONCE STOPPED. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE SAME AFFECTED PART ON THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL AND YEAR, BUT DIDN'T INVOLVE MY PARTICULAR VIN -- THIS CAMPAIGN (03V455000) PERHAPS SHOULD BE READDRESSED TO INCLUDE ADDITIONAL VEHICLES. *TR

I HAVE OWNED MY 2004 G35X OUTRIGHT FOR 9 YEARS NOW. BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW IN 2005. I HAVE KEPT UP ALL THE MAINTENANCE, AND HAVE LOVED MY CAR UP UNTIL THIS POINT. I WAS DRIVING ON A TWO LANE ROAD, AND DECIDED TO PASS THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. MY SPEED WAS APPROX 70 MPH AND I HAD NOT QUITE PASSED THEM WHEN THE CAR LOST ALL POWER. THE VDC LIGHT/SLIP LIGHT/SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT ALL CAME ON. DASH LIT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE. MY STEERING WAS NON EXISTANT, AND HAD COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER. LUCKILY NO ONE ELSE WAS ON THE ROAD!!! AND I COASTED INTO A DRIVEWAY. WAITED A FEW MINUTES, AND THE CAR STARTED UP FINE. FAST FORWARD TO JANUARY, AND I WAS DRIVING IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC GOING ABOUT 40 MPH WHEN THE SAME THING HAPPENED. LUCKILY, AGAIN, I WAS ABLE TO GET CAR TO A SAFE PLACE. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS A FAILURE ON 2 SENSORS. CAM AND CRANKSHAFT, THE SAME SENSORS THAT HAD BEEN RECALLED ON THE 2003 MODELS AND 2005!!!! VERY HARROWING, AND FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE. ALSO MEMORABLE ON MY PURSE AS THE COST TO FIX WAS $770, HOWEVER THE DEALER WAS KIND TO GIVE ME A DISCOUNT AND A LOANER CAR, AND GOOD SERVICE. SHOULDNT THE 2004 BEEN RECALLED AS WELL!!!???? SEEMS THERE ARE A LOT OF OTHER COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME MAKE/MODEL AND SAME DEFECTIVE PART. I AM GLAD I WAS NOT AND THAT ANOTHER CAR WERE NOT INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT STEMMING FROM THIS DEFECT. THIS CAR WILL CLEARLY BE OUT ON THE ROADS FOR AWHILE, AS SOME MIGHT GIVE IT TO THEIR KIDS FOR THEIR FIRST CAR, EVEN THOUGH IT IS 10 YEARS OLD. I'M CLEARLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE! *TR

THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT ON THE REAR DECK HAS FAILED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THE CAR WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION. THEY WANT SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE UNIT. I HAVE RESEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND THIS IS A VOLUMINOUS PROBLEM FOR THIS MODEL YEAR. IT WAS RECALLED AND ADDRESSED BY INFINITI FOR THE 2003 MODEL YEAR G AND IT IS STILL A PROBLEM FOR THE 2004 YEAR. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND FIXED ACCORDINGLY AT THE MANUFACTURER COST. ALL THESE OWNERS ARE NOT HAVING THE SAME FAILING ISSUES WITHOUT CAUSE. I OWN TWO 2004 INFINITI G35 SEDANS. I USED TO LOVE BOTH OF THEM. THIS ONE HAS PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKE LIGHT AND NOW THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS MYSTERIOUSLY BLINKING FOR NO REASON! THE OTHER ONE HAS HAD ISSUES FOR YEARS WITH BEING ABLE TO PUT GAS IN AND I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS AT THE GAS STATION TRYING TO FILL THE CAR! RIDICULOUS! IF INFINITI DOESN'T DO SOMETHING ... I'LL BE SWITCHING MAKERS. THIS ONE LISTED ALSO HAS FUEL PRESURE REGULATOR/DAMPER FAILURES ... WHILE MY OTHER '04 G (WITH OVER 200,000 MILES ON IT) HAS NONE. EXPLAIN THAT. I LIVE THE REAL ... BETWEEN TWO OF THE SAME MODEL YEAR. FIX THE PROBLEMS INFINITI! *TR

CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN AT ABOUT 65MPH WHEN IT LOST POWER AND THE VDC, SLIP AND CHECK ENGINE SOON LIGHTS ALL CAME ON THE CAR REGAIN POWER BUT AT LESS AMOUNT AND WAS HARD TO START. WAS TAKEN TO DEALER. AND WAS FOUND TO NEED A CAM POS SENSOR. IF THIS LOSS OF POWER HAPPEN WHEN PASSING ON A 2 LANE ROAD I MAY NOT BE WRITING THIS . THE 2003 MODELS HAD A RECALL I THINK THIS MODEL NEEDS ONE TO. THE COST WAS OVER 350.00. *TR

YESTERDAY, JULY 9, 2012, WHILE DRIVING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS ON A MAIN CITY STREET THE ENGINE ON MY 2004 INFINITI G35 JUST STOPPED RUNNING. LOST POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. MANAGED TO MANUALLY STEER THE CAR OFF THE ROAD INTO A PARKING LOT. THE VDC OFF AND SLIP LIGHTS AND THE CHECK ENGINE SOON LIGHTS CAME ON. I TURNED OFF THE IGNITION AND JUST SAT THERE, STUNNED, FOR A FEW MINUTES. I DECIDED TO TRY TO START IT UP AGAIN, AND IT DID START AND SOUNDED OK, SO I SLOWLY DROVE IT ON HOME. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ONLINE FOR THE NEXT HOUR, I KIND OF FIGURED IT MIGHT BE THIS DEFECTIVE CAM POSITION SENSOR, AS THE SYMPTOMS MY CAR DISPLAYED SOUNDED JUST LIKE WHAT SO MANY OTHERS WERE DESCRIBING, PLUS INIFINITI AND NISSAN HAD A RECALL FOR THIS VERY PROBLEM ISSUED ON THE 2003 G35. I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH OTHERS THAT THE 2004 G35 SHOULD BE UNDER THIS SAME RECALL. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION TO BE DRIVING AND SUDDENLY, WITHOUT WARNING, LOSE ALL ENGINE POWER. I WILL ADD THAT LATER THAT EVENING I HAD TO GO SOMEWHERE, SO I TOOK A CHANCE THAT IT WOULD MAKE IT. IT QUIT ON ME TWICE IN THE AREA AROUND MY HOME WITHIN 10 BLOCKS. SO, OBVIOUSLY I CANNOT TAKE THIS CAR VERY FAR FROM HOME WITHOUT GETTING THIS REPAIRED AND REPLACED. I TOOK IT TO AUTOZONE TODAY TO HAVE THEM FIND OUT THE CODE FOR THE CHECK ENGINE SOON LIGHT. IT'S WHAT I SUSPECTED, 0340, WHICH IS THE PASSENGER SIDE CAM POSITION SENSOR. THE VERY THING ON THE 2003 INIFINITI G35 MODEL RECALL. *TR
