2006 Infiniti G35

THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM MODULE (ABS) HAS BURNED OUT AND IS HAPPENING SO OFTEN, INFINITY IS UNABLE TO SUPPLY THE DEMAND AND THERE IS A NATIONWIDE BACK ORDER FOR THE PART. AFTER WAITING 2 WEEKS FOR THE PART BEGINNING 10/31/13, MY MECHANIC DISCONNECTED THE ABS MODULE, SO THAT I CAN HAVE TRANSPORTATION BECAUSE HE DOES NOT KNOW WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE. I NO LONGER HAVE USE OF ABS AND THIS ALSO KEEPS VEHICLE DYNAMIC CONTROL FROM FUNCTIONING. AS OF TODAY'S DATE 12/09/13, I AM STILL WAITING FOR THE PART AND DRIVING WITHOUT THE USE OF SAFETY FEATURES DURING THIS WET WINTER MONTHS. IT MAY BE WORTH NOTING THAT THE LOW END OF THIS REPAIR AT AN INDEPENDENT SHOP IS $1400 AND HIGH END $2100. A COST MANY PEOPLE MAY NOT BE ABLE AFFORD LEADING TO MORE DISCONNECTED ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEMS ON THE ROAD. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 MANUAL TRANSMISSION G35 THAT IS CONSUMING UP TO 2 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES. I DID NOT REALIZE THIS WAS HAPPENING UNTIL MY ENGINE MADE A LOUD REPETITIVE TICKING NOISE AND WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL THERE WAS LESS THAN A QUART IN IT. I'VE SINCE CONTINUED TOPPING OFF MY OIL WEEKLY AND CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIPS. SINCE I AM OUT OF WARRANTY THE ONLY THING I CAN DO IS REPLACE THE BLOCK MYSELF. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED HOW THEY ARE HANDLING THIS SITUATION WITH NOT ONLY ME BUT MANY OTHER INFINITI OWNERS. ANY INPUT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT TRACK ON MY 2006 INFINITE G35X HAS BROKEN ON 3 OCCASIONS AND HAS RENDERED THE CAR UNDRIVEABLE WITHOUT EXPENSIVE REPAIR. THERE IS A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN DATED ON JULY 2007 AS SEATS BULLETIN 02080. THIS TSB SHOULD BECOME A RECALL BECAUSE IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND ALMOST CAUSED ME TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. AND IS VERY COSTLY TO REPAIR FOR THE CONSUMER. THIS IS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM FOR THE MAKE AND MODEL OF THIS VEHICLE AND INFINITE NEEDS TO DO A RECALL. *TR

I OWN A 2006 INFINITI G35 COUPE THAT HAS LESS THAN 60K MILES AND BURNS TWO QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES. I ORIGINALLY BECAME AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BACK IN 2008. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BEGIN EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION TESTING. AT THAT TIME I ONLY DROVE ABOUT 200 MILES A MONTH AND THE DEALER SAID I NEEDED TO BE DRIVING 2500 MILES TO PERFORM THE TEST. I EXPLAINED THAT THERE WASN'T A WAY TO PUT THE MILEAGE ON MY CAR WITHOUT UNNECESSARILY DRIVING AROUND TOWN. MY CAR REQUIRES PREMIUM GAS AND IT'S ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS FOR SOMEONE TO THINK I WOULD SPEND THOUSANDS IN GAS TO SHOW MY CAR HAS A OIL BURNING ISSUE. LAST MONTH AFTER LESS THAN A THOUSAND MILES SINCE MY LAST OIL CHANGE, MY SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK TO THE DEALER IMMEDIATELY AND THEY SAID MY CAR DEFINITELY HAS A OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM. THEY ALSO SAID THEY WOULD NOT FIX IT BECAUSE MY WARRANTY IS EXPIRED BY TIME NOT MILEAGE. THE MANUFACTURER AS WELL AS THE DEALER ARE FULLY AWARE THAT THERE IS TSB ISSUED ON MY VEHICLE. I HAVE OPENED A CASE WITH INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS AS WELL AS THE BBB. ANY HELP YOU CAN PROVIDE WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

I WAS ALMOST A COMPLETE STOP WHEN I WAS REAR ENDED. THE IMPACT WAS PRETTY HARD, AND THE VEHICLE WAS ULTIMATELY A TOTAL LOSS. AT THE TIME OF COLLISION, MY DRIVERS SIDE SEAT COLLAPSED BACK ON ME ALMOST TO A FULL RECLINE POSITION. DUE TO THIS, MY SEAT BELT WAS COMPLETELY LOOSE, AND FELT AS IF I DID NOT HAVE ONE ON. I SLID DOWN, AND MY ANKLES WERE BRUISED ON TOP, AND MY BASEBALL CAP FLEW OFF INTO THE BACK SEAT. ALSO, THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 INFINITI G35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED WITH THE ILLUMINATION OF THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR. A LOUD NOISE WAS ALSO HEARD AFTER THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE ENGINE WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO A MASSIVE CRACK IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,860.
