THE SYSTEM CONTROLLING THE AC AND THE RADIO COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING AND THERE IS NO LONGER ANY WAY TO CONTROL IT. ALL THE POWER WINDOWS QUIT WORKING AS WELL. WITH SO MANY REPORTS WOULD BE NICE IF INFINITI TOOK SOME RESPONSIBILITY AND ADDRESSED THE ISSUES. *JS
INFINITI G35 HEATER AND AC CONTROLS ARE INOPERATIVE WHICH CAN BE DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING IN THE WINTER IF DEFROSTERS DON'T WORK! *JS

AIR CONDITIONING BLASTS AT ALL TIMES THAT CAR ENGINE IS RUNNING. NO WAY TO CONTROL, LOWER OR CHANGE THE A/C DEFROSTER, HEAT OR DEFOGGER. RADIO PANELS ARE SIMILARLY "BLACKED OUT" MEANING THEY ARE NOT WITHIN THE CONTROL OF THE OPERATOR. MULTIPLE SAFETY COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN ISSUED REGARDING THIS PROBLEM AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS ADVISED SIMILAR OWNERS IT WILL BE $4,000 TO RECTIFY THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS LARGELY A SAFETY CONCERN. I HAVE NOTIFIED MY INSURANCE COMPANY OF THIS ISSUE AS WHEN TOYOTA'S WERE RECALLED AND PEOPLE WERE INJURED IT WAS THE INSURANCE COMPANY, (STATE FARM) THAT REALIZED THE SEVERITY OF THE SITUATION FIRST. *KB
THE AC/RADIO CONTROLS GO OUT INTERMITTENTLY ON BY 2003 G35, EVEN THOUGH A FEW G35'S WERE COVERED UNDER A VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN - MY VIN # WAS NOT ON LIST - AC NOW STUCK ON AND SNOW IS DUE IN 2 DAYS! INFINITI SAYS NOT A SAFETY HAZARD AND THEY WILL NOT COVER???? I NOT A SAFETY HAZARD IN COLD WEATHER I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS.. THERE ARE 100'S OF POST SIMILAR TO MINE ON INTERNET - WHEN IS SOMEONE GOING TO TALK SOME SINCE INTO INFINITI. THIS IS THE THING THAT IS KEEPING ME FROM EVER BUYING ANOTHER INFINITI - NOT SO MUCH THE PROBLEM, THINGS HAPPEN- BUT IT THE WAY INFINITI IS HANDLING IT. THEY KNOW IT WAS AN ENGINEERING BOO BOO AND THEY ARE REFUSING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. THEY NEED TO GROW UP!!! *LN

RADIO/AC WENT OUT AND ARE MALFUNCTIONING. I STARTED MY CAR AND WHEN TURNING ON THE RADIO THE AC WENT TO AUTO AC AND WENT UP TO LEVEL 5 WITH OUT ANY WARNING. MY RADIO FOLLOWED BY NOT WORKING. ALL LIGHTS ON THE RADIO AC CONSOLE WENT OUT AND I AM UNABLE TO CONTROL EITHER FROM STEERING WHEEL OR CONSOLE. THE AUDIO FINISHER CIRCUIT BOARD WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED. OVER 1700 COMPLAINTS FOUND RELATED TO THIS TOPIC WITH 2003 G35 INFINITI'S. *TR
AC STUCK ON BLOWING AIR, BUTTONS NOT WORKING, RADIO CONTROLS ONLY WORKS THROUGH STEERING CONTROLS. *TR
RECENTLY THE AUDIO/AIR CONDITIONING CONTROL UNIT IS INOPERATIVE. THE DISPLAY ON THE AUDIO SOURCE GOES BLANK. SINCE I CAN'T CONTROL MY HEAT/COOL SETTING I FEEL HELPLESS WHEN I WANT TO ADJUST FOR COMFORT. I HAVE BEEN READING A FEW COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE ISSUE AND IT SEEMS LIKE THE HAVE A VOLUNTEER SERVICE RECALL FOR THE CIRCUIT BOARD, BUT IT ONLY COVERS THROUGH APRIL 2002. MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED ON DECEMBER 2002. CAN YOU TELL ME IF THEIR HAS BEEN AN ADJUSTMENT TO THE SERVICE RECALL THAT WOULD PUT ME IN A BETTER POSITION? *TR
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 INFINITI G35. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE AIR CONDITION WOULD SPORADICALLY FAIL. THE FAILURE WORSENED AND INCLUDED THE RADIO AND CD PLAYER AS WELL. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THERE WAS A VOLUNTARY RECALL FOR THE EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL:RADIO/TAPE DECK/CD ETC.; HOWEVER, THEY WOULD NOT REPAIR THE VEHICLE FOR FREE BECAUSE HIS VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE VIN RANGES ARE JNKCV51E*3M000014-026621. THE CONTACT IS IN THE PROCESS OF REPAIRING THE AUDIO FINISHER CIRCUIT BOARD AT THE COST OF $1,400. THE RECALL NUMBER WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 64,000.
CD GOT STUCK IN CD PLAYER. RADIO STARTED CUTTING IN AND OUT. THEN THE DASH PANEL THAT CONTROLLED THE STEREO, CD, HEATER, AC, ETC DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE A/C DOES NOT SHUT OFF, WHEREAS ALL THE OTHER DEVICES DO NOT TURN ON. I CAN STILL USE THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL BUT THE OTHER CONTROLS ON THE DASH (EXCEPT NAVIGATION) STOP WORKING. *TR
NOISE COMING FROM ENGINE WHEN AIR-CONDITIONING IS ON. SEEMED TO GET LOUDER. TOOK INTO DEALER, ASSUMED IT WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. HAD 60,000 WARRANTY WAS AT 54,000. ALSO GAS TANK NOT SHOWING FULL WHEN FILLING UP. BOTH REPAIRS TOTALED 1100.00 APROXIMATELY FELT AT 54,000 MILES THESE SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED AND WAS TOLD I HAD THE REMAINDER OF FACTORY WARRANTY WHICH WAS 4 YEARS/60,000. I WAS NOT AWARE THE FIRST SALE DATE WAS LATE 2002 APPARENTLY. *JB
