I HAVE A 2005 INFINITI G35X. I HAVE OWNED IT SINCE APPROXIMATELY 50K MILES. FRIDAY NIGHT, ON MY WAY DRIVING FROM DC TO NY, THE AC GOT STUCK AT 90 DEGREES, AND IN AUTO MODE, THE BACKLIGHT FOR THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WENT COMPLETELY DEAD, AND THE STEREO WENT OUT COMPLETELY. I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER ANY OF THESE 3 DEVICES. SINCE I LIVE ON THE EAST COAST AND ALL THE DEALERSHIPS IN THE AREA ARE CLOSED, I CALLED ONE IN RIVERSIDE, CA - RIVERSIDE INFINITI. THEY SAID THE STEREO IS DEAD AND THEY'VE SEEN THE PROBLEM "COUNTLESS TIMES" (QUOTE). I MADE A POSTING ON SEVERAL INFINITI FORUMS ON THE INTERNET REQUESTING ADVICE. THE CONSENSUS IS THE SAME - STEREO IS BAD. I FEEL THAT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND MY HVAC SHOULD NEVER BE CONNECTED TO THE STEREO AS THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. ALSO, SINCE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM, INFINITI SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL/TSB. *TR
