RETURNING FROM A VACATION TRIP COMING FROM MISSOURI TO LOUISIANA ON INTERSTATE 10 I NOTICED A VIBRATION IN THE REAR OF MY 2003 INFINITI G35. I THOUGHT THAT I HAD A TIRE THAT WAS GOING FLAT. I EXITED THE INTERSTATE AND DROVE ABOUT 2 MILES AND CHECKED THE TIRES, ALL TIRES WERE INFLATED. I DROVE AND DROPPED OFF A PASSANGER AND MY SON, THE CAR CONTINUED TO VIBRATE. DRIVING SLOWLY (NO MORE THA 25 MPH) THE VIBRATION CONTUED TO GET WORSE, SINCE MY WIFE AND I WERE ONLY ABOUT TWO MILES FROM OUR HOME I CONTINED. THE ENTIRE WHEEL OF THE RIGHT PASSANGER SIDE FELL OFF! THIS HAPPENED ABOUT 1AM. I WAS ABLE TO PULL THE CAR OFF OF THE ROADWAY AND PARKED THE VEHICLE. THE NEXT MORNING I CALLED INFINITI ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AND HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO RAY BRANDT INFINITI IN METAIRIE, LA. THE DEALER CALLED ME AT ABOUT 3PM AND SAID THE COST TO REPAIR WOULD BE ABOUT $900.00 PLUS THE BODY REPAIR. I TOLD THEM THAT I WOULD NOT PAY IT AND WAS REFERRED TI INFINITI'S TOLL FREE NUMBER. INFINITI HAS AGREED TO REPAIR THE CAR AND HAS NOT ACCEPTED ANY LIABILITY. I WILL BE REQUIRED TO SIGN A RELEASE. I'VE TOLD INFINITI NOT TO REPAIR THE CAR UNTIL I SEE THE RELESSE FORM AND THE REPAIRS ARE DETAILED IN WRITING. AT THIS POINT THE OLD PARTS MAY BE AVAILABLE. *AK

NISSAN HAS ORDERED A TSB/ RECALL FOR THE 350-Z FOR FRONT END ALIGNMENT PROBLEMS THAT CAUSE PREMATURE TIRE WEAR. I OWN A 2003 INFINITI G-35 COUPE. THE 350-Z AND THE G-35 COUPE SHARE THE SAME PLATFORM AND VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL SUSPENSIONS. MY CAR IS SUFFERING FROM THE SAME ALIGNMENT PROBLEMS, YET NISSAN WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE A CONNECTION BETWEEN THE TWO. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUES AND WOULD LIKE THE NHTSA TO LOOK INTO THIS MATTER. *LA
