2004 INFINITI G35 Problems

Car has unintended acceleration that can only be stopped by turning off ignition key. This happens without warning. When stopped and foot on brake car accelerates to top rpm then brake goes to floor resulting in no control of car.

Desconocido

Lock actuators on passenger side have NEVER worked, fuel pump stops working when filling up tank even though not nearly full (have to repush the pump in several times - sometimes it doesn’t let me fill up tank totally because it thinks it’s full), right headlights fog up and can't be polished, light bulbs went out. Cruise control NEVER worked, a/c stopped working at 77,000 miles, window motor on both doors broke before 75,000 miles

My heater and AC lights kicks on and off causing my windows to fog making it easy to have an accident. There is a ticking as well but no lights

THIRD LIGHT FAILED AT APPROX 62800 MILES 5/24/2013 .THIS IS A WELL DOCUMENTED ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE, CAUSING AN UNSAFE CONDITION DUE TO IMPROPER WARNING TO FOLLOWING VEHICLES. THIS IS A VERY COSTLY REPAIR AND SHOULD BE COVERED BY A RECALL. TO DATE INFINITI HAS DONE NOTHING TO CORRECT.

WHILE DRIVING 3 WARNING LIGHTS COME ON (VACATION, NO SLIP, AND CHECK ENGINE) THEN I LOOSE CONTROL OF ACCELERATION. I HAD THE CHECK ENGINE CODE READ AND THE CODE IS P2138, WHICH IS THE THROTTLE CONTROL/ PEDAL POSITION SENSOR

I was driving my car and heard a loud sound and then my airbags went off. I lost control on my steering and was able to coast the car to shoulder. The airbags deployed even though there was no collision with another car. Under further inspecting it looks as if all the bolts came loose on the drive Trane. I have no idea why the airbags went off. I did sustain an minor injury to my hand. police were called, fire trucks checked for possible fire hazards. I looked for recalls and or air bag malfuctions for this year make and model but did not find any. Had I not been in the far right lane I could have been in a serious accident. The airbags deploying scared me. Both the driver and passenger side airbags went off. I was the only one in the vehicle.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET WHEN THE ENGINE SEEMED TO ACQUIRE A LIFE OF ITS OWN AND SPED UP, UNRESPONSIVE TO DRIVERS APPLICATION OF BRAKES FOR SEVERAL SECONDS.AS DRIVER BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO A STOP, A PUFF OF WHITE SMOKE EMERGED FROM UNDER THE HOOD.

AIR BAG SENSOR IS NOT WORKING AIR BAG LIGHTS REMAINS BLINKING DRIVER SEATS MOTOR NOT WORKING

MY INFINITI SEAT BRACKET BROKE AND IT ROCKING BACK AND FORTH LIKE A ROCKING CHAIR. IT IS VARY DANGEROUS AND I HAVE READ SEVERAL OTHER REPORTED CASES INCLUDING FIVE OR SIX REPORTED ON THIS SITE. I HAD THE SAME RESPONSE THAT ONE OTHER HAD ON THIS SITE FROM THE INFINITI DEALER, THE DRIVER'S WEIGHT. I TOO, AM THE ONLY DRIVER OF THIS VEHICLE AND THIS IS MY 4TH NISSAN PRODUCT INCLUDING MY LAST MAXIMA THAT I HAD FOR 14 YEARS WITHOUT ANY ISSUES. THE DEALER HAS ESTIMATED A COST OF 1,300 TO FIX THE PROBLEM. IT ALMOST CAUSED ME TO CRASH ON THE FREEWAY, AND NOW I AM DRIVING A VERY DANGEROUS CAR WITH ONLY 47,000 MILES. APPEARS TO BE A DEFECT AND NOT ONLY AN EXPENSIVE AND IRRITATING ISSUE, BUT A DANGEROUS ONE. PLEASE INFINITI, STEP UP AND STAND BEHIND YOUR PRODUCT. ITS A GREAT PRODUCT, BUT THE SEAT DESIGN (BRACKET) IS TERRIBLE AND DANGEROUS. *TR

REPORTING A SUDDEN ACCELERATION. CAME TO A STOP (TRAFFIC LIGHT)SUDDENLY THE ENGINE ROARED AND THE CAR TOOK OFF WITH FULL SPEED. HIT A VAN AT THE DRIVERS SIDE BACKWHEEL AREA.THE CAR WAS TOTALLED. THE INSURANCE CO.(21ST CENTURY) HIRED AN ENGINEER WHO DID NOT FIND ANY FAULT WITH THE ENGINE..THIS HAPPENED 2 TIMES BEFORE.I COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM EITHER BEFORE. LOOKED ON THE INTERNET .SEVERAL DRIVERS HAD THE SAME TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE. (ALLWORLDAUTO.COM /2004INFINITI G35 USER COMMENTS/COMPLAINT) I AM REPORTING THIS BEFORE SOMEONE WILL DIE. *TR

THERE WAS NO CRASH OR RESULTING INJURIES--BUT HAVING A CLUTCH WHICH STICKS MAY EVENTUALLY LEAD TO A CATASTROPHIC INCIDENT. THE DEALERSHIP ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM AT 50,000 MILES, BUT IT HAS SINCE RETURNED. THERE ARE MANY G35-DEVOTED WEBSITES AND BLOGS WHERE G35 OWNERS COMPLAIN ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT IT DOES NOT APPEAR THEY HAVE FOLLOWED UP BY FILING A COMPLAINT. MANY OWNERS REPORT THE SAME STICKY CLUTCH PROBLEM AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. FOR ME, IT'S HAPPENING AT ANY SPEED WHETHER IT IS SLOW OR FAST. INFINITI CLAIMS THIS REQUIRES A NEW CLUTCH--GIVEN THAT THE OWNERS HAVE HAD THEIR PROBLEMS AT VARIOUS POINTS OF MILEAGE, I AM NOT CONVINCED THIS IS RELATED TO THE CLUTCH ITSELF. THANKS VERY MUCH. *TR

THERE WAS CONSTRUCTION DONE ON MY ST 15 NINTH STREET LAST WEEK CONES WERE PUT ON THE STREET AND THEN RECENTLY REMOVED AFTER. AFTER WORK I PULLED UP TO PARK MY CAR AND IT SUNK IN A HUGE HOLE WHERE THE CONSTRUCTION WAS DONE MY CAR IS NOW STUCK AND CAN NOT MOVE AT ALL IT NEEDS TO BE TOWED IN ORDER TO MOVE THERE IS SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE DONE TO MY VEHICLE AND NO TELLING WHAT OTHER DAMAGES WILL OCCUR WHEN PULLING MY VEHICLE FROM HOLE, I FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE WITH WAITING FOR CITY TO COME AND INSPECT AND PULL MY VEHICLE OUT DUE TO THE FACT IAM NOT AT FAULT AND I WILL NOT BE RELIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES THAT OCCUR WHEN PULLING MY VEHICLE FROM HOLE.

I HAVE A 2004 INFINITI G35 SEDAN. MY AUDIO FAILED AND A/C STUCK . . . THE SAME PROBLEM THEY VOLUNTARILY REPAIRED IN 2003. (SERVICE BULLETIN #03007A AND NHTSA ITEM #10001253) IT IS CAUSED BY A FAILURE OF THE AUDIO FINISHER CIRCUIT BOARD. BECAUSE OF THIS, I AM UNABLE TO TURN ON THE WINDOW DEFROSTER AND HAVE DIFFICULTY SEEING THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD WHEN THERE IS CONDENSATION DUE TO CERTAIN WEATHER CONDITIONS. WHEN I BROUGHT MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP IN ROSEVILLE WHERE I BOUGHT IT, THEY SAID THEY WOULD CHECK ON IT BUT KNOWING THERE WAS ONLY 10 DAYS UNTIL MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WAS UP, THEY NEVER FOLLOWED UP. I HAVE SEEN MANY 2004 OWNERS ON LINE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM BUT NISSAN/INFINITI DON'T SEEM TO CARE. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE AS MY WINDSHIELD FOGS UP WHEN I DRIVE TO WORK, WHICH IS ALWAYS EARLY SINCE I AM A NURSE AND AF RESERVIST. *TR

The transmission continuously slipping and putting code u1000

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 INFINITI G35. WHILE PULLING IN THE DRIVEWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 4 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE POWER STEERING SEIZED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,000.

I DROVE TO BALTIMORE FROM DC AND BACK WITH NO ISSUES, THEN TURNED TO GO INTO THE ALLEYWAY BEHIND MY HOME. ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND WOULD NOT TURN AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD CAME ON, INCLUDING THE BRAKE LIGHT. MY BRAKE PAD FROZE MIDWAY DOWN, STOPPING THE CAR, BUT NOT BUDGING, EVEN WHEN I TAPPED THE GAS PEDAL. I PUT ON AND OFF THE PARKING BRAKE, TO NO AVAIL. I TRIED TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AROUND, BUT COULD NOT. THEN I TRIED TO TURN OFF THE CAR AND RESTART IT, BUT IT TOOK ME THREE TRIES. WHEN I RESTARTED THE CAR, THE BRAKE PAD STARTED FUNCTIONING NORMALLY AGAIN AND THE CAR HAS BEEN NORMAL EVER SINCE. ADDITIONALLY, NOTHING LIKE THIS HAS EVER HAPPENED BEFORE. *TR

MY PROBLEM IS WITH THE DASH, WHERE THE HEATING CONTROLS AND THE RADIO CONTROLS ARE. WHEN I AM DRIVING, THE HEATER AND RADIO CONTROLS JUST CUT OUT. IT GETS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN IT IS RAINING, BECAUSE THE WINDOWS WILL FOG UP, AND IN THE WINTER IT GETS VERY COLD. ....UPDATED 04/02/15 *BF

WHILE DRIVING, AC CAME ON FULL BLAST AND I COULD NOT CONTROL IT. NONE OF THE BUTTONS WORKED ON THE UNIT AT ALL. I HAVE READ SIMILAR COMPLAINTS AND THEIR FIX IS THE CONTROLLER BOARD OR AFTERMARKET RADIO SYSTEM. I HAVE AN AFTERMARKET RADIO/GPS UNIT INSTALLED, BUT IT STILL HAVE ZERO CONTROL OVER AC UNIT. NO PROBLEM WITH RADIO EVER. ALL OF THIS IS INTERMITTENTLY. SOMETIMES I CAN CONTROL IT, BUT IT WANT LAST LONG. DON'T KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN THIS WINTER, SINCE I HAVE ONLY OWNED THE CAR FOR 5 MONTHS. I'LL KEEP RESEARCHING. *TR

REAR SEAT BELTS COME OUT OF BRACKET ON REAR OF SEAT. THIS CAUSES THE BELT TO RUB ON THE NECK OF PASSENGERS. THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN A CHILD IN A BOOSTER SEAT IS BELTED IN. MY GRANDSON COMPLAINS THAT THE BELT HURTS HIS NECK. DEALER REPLACED THE BRACKETS AND SAME HAPPENS. DEALER NOTED SAME PROBLEM ON OTHER G35S. INFINITI CLAIMS THAT CHANGING THE BRACKET IS ALL THEY CAN DO.*JB

THE DRIVER'S-SIDE SHOULDER HARNESS PORTION OF THE SEATBELT INTERMITTENTLY LOCKS IN POSITION, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO REACH THE DASHBOARD, UNLESS THE DRIVER UNBUCKLES THEIR SEATBELT FIRST. I BROUGHT THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALER, ORLANDO INFINITY, AND THEY SAID THE SEATBELT WAS OKAY. I HAVE HARDCOPY OF THEIR STATEMENTS. TWICE I HAVE NEARLY CRASHED, SECONDARY TO NOT BEING ABLE TO REACH THE DASH DURING ALL TOO TYPICAL ORLANDO DRIVING CONDITIONS. I QUESTION IF THIS INTERMITTENT PROBLEM IS INHERENT IN OTHER G35 COUPES (2004). PLEASE NOTE, THE INCIDENTS OF THE SEATBELT FREEZING IN A LOCKED POSITION ARE INTERMITTENT, SUCH THAT THE DATE BELOW REFLECTS WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR.*AK

BOUGHT THIS CAR USED LESS THAN 2 WEEKS AGO AND DROVE IT BACK FROM CHICAGO 6.5 HOURS. CAR HAD A TERRIBLE TIRE HUM/VIBRATION WHICH SEEMED TO BE COMING FROM THE FRONT RIGHT AND WAS ALMOST UNBEARABLE. I CHOCKED IT UP TO MAYBE THE TIRES NOT BEING ROTATED ON SCHEDULE AND DECIDED TO PURCHASE 2 NEW TIRES FOR THE FRONT ASAP. I HAVE HAD THE NEW ONES ON NOW FOR LESS THAN 100 MILES AND THE PASSENGER SIDE HAS ALREADY STARTED FEATHERING. SO I FIGURED IT WAS AN ALIGNMENT ISSUE, HAD THE ALIGNMENT CHECKED, WHICH WAS ON POINT, AND NO ISSUES COULD BE FOUND WITH THE SUSPENSION DURING THEIR INSPECTION EITHER. DECIDED OKAY, MUST BE THE TIRE OR THE RIM SO I SWAPPED THE FRONT RIGHT WITH THE LEFT AND IN ONE (1) DAY (20) MILES IT TOO HAS STARTED TO FEATHER AND I STILL GET THE SAME HUM/VIBRATION FEEL AND NOISE. THE NOISE AND VIBRATION IS PATTERN LIKE IN NATURE. SO I DECIDED HIT THE GOOD OL INTERWEB TO RESEARCH THIS AND FIND THAT I'M NOT ALONE. SEEMS A GOOD MANY OF OWNERS COMPLAIN ABOUT THE VERY SAME ISSUE WHICH IS VERY COMMON WITH THE G35 AND IT'S COUSIN THE NISSAN 350Z. APPARENTLY, IT'S ACCEPTABLE AND YOU'RE LUCKY IF YOU GET 12000 MILES OUT OF TIRES AND THE NOISE AND VIBRATION IS JUST ONE OF THOSE THINGS OWNERS HAVE TO DEAL WITH. I'M SORRY BUT I FIND THAT TO BE UNACCEPTABLE! I UNDERSTAND THERE'S MAINTENANCE COST INVOLVED IN OWNING A CAR, NEW OR USED, BUT TIRES ARE NOT CHEAP IN THE FIRST PLACE AND HAVING TO PURCHASE A PERFORMANCE TIRE TO BOOT ONLY STINGS THE POCKET THAT MUCH MORE. NOT TO MENTION A SAFETY ISSUE. INFINITI SHOULD REALLY LOOK INTO THIS AND FIND OUT WHAT THE REAL PROBLEM IS AND FIX IT. ONE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT TIRES GOING BAD SO QUICKLY, MUCH LESS HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT BUDGETING FOR A NEW SET OF TIRES EACH YEAR OR SOONER BECAUSE THEY'RE WEARING TO THE POINT OF CONCERN OF SAFETY.

WHILE DRIVING OUR 2004 INFINITY G35 ON THE FWY GOING ABOUT 40 MPH (THE GROUND WAS WET) WE FELT THE TRACK CONTROL STARTED TO SHIFT SIDE TO SIDE, A TRUCK CUT IN FRON US US, WHICH MADE MY HUSBAND PUT ON BRAKES, AS HE PUTTED ON BRAKES, THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT BRAKE LOCKED, WHICH CAUSED FOR THE CARD TO TURN SIDEWAYS AND HIT THE CENTER DIVIDER FULL SPEED. THE BRAKES AFTER THEY LOCKED, NEVER STOPPED THE CAR, THE ONLY THING THAT STOPPED US WAS THE CENTER DIVIDER. THE AIRBAGS NEVER POP, AS WE HIT THE WALL GOING 40 MILES PER HOURS. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER RECENTLY AND HAD THE BRAKES CHANGED (2 TIMES IN 11 MONTHS) AND THE LAST TME I TOOD THE CAR I INFORMED THE DEALER THAT THE BRAKES FELT HARD, AND THEY WERE HARD TO STOP THEY STATED THAT THE BRAKES WILL GET BETTER WITH USE, AND THAT'S HOW IT USUALLY FELT AFTER THE BRAKES WERE CHANGED. THE CAR DID NOT DRIVE THE SAME, THE TRACTION WAS NOT WORKING, THE BRAKES LOCKED AND TO TOP IT ALL THE BAGS DID NOT DEPLOYED AFTER IMPACT.*AK

TIRE CRACKING IN TWO PLACES AT INSIDE SIDEWALL / TREAD MOLD LINE. MILEAGE ON TIRES < 24,500. WARRANTY 60,000. TIRES STORED AS PER DUNLAP RECOMMENDATION DURING WINTER. FACTORY WHEELS. TIRES MOUNTED ONLY ONCE AT PURCHASE. DUNLAP OFFERED CREDIT OF $32 ON $160.00 TIRE - NO REPLACEMENT AVAILABLE - DISCONTINUED.

NEW 2004 INFINITY G35 COUPE PURCHASED 12/11/03 SKIDDED OUT OF CONTROL 12/14/03 ON EXPRESSWAY WHEN LIGHT SNOW WAS FALLING AND STICKING TO ROAD SURFACE. THE TIRES SOLD WITH THE CAR WERE "SUMMER ONLY" TIRES WITH AN N/A TRACTION RATING ON THE SIDEWALL. THIS FACT WAS NOT MENTIONED BY THE DEALERSHIP NOR ON THE CAR WINDOW STICKER NOR IN THE BROCHURE THAT GIVES THE DETAILS ABOUT THE CAR. WHEN I MADE THIS PROBLEM KNOWN TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY WERE INDIFFERENT. I HAVE JUST SPENT $1400 TO PURCHASE 4 WINTER PERFORMANCE TIRES FOR THIS CAR. THESE CARS ARE BEING SOLD IN WINTER MONTHS WITHOUT CONSUMERS BEING ABLE TO KNOW THAT IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE THEM IN WINTER CONDITIONS. *LA

I HAVE A 2004 INFINITI G35 AND BROUGHT IT IN FOR MY REGULAR SERVICE AND BECAUSE MY AC WAS NOT WORKING. I WAS THEN TOLD THAT MY AC WAS NOT WORKING BECAUSE A PEBBLE HAD FLEW THROUGH MY GRILL AND PUNCTURED A WHOLE IN MY CONDENSER CAUSING THE FREON TO ESCAPE. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS NOT COVERED IN MY WARRANTY BECAUSE IT WAS NOT A DEFECT. BUT, IN MY OPINION, THIS GRILL IS SUPPOSED TO PROTECT THE INSIDES OF MY CAR FROM OUTSIDE DAMAGE. THE GRILL IS DEFECTIVE IF IT IS NOT PROTECTING THE INSIDES OF MY CAR. THIS COST ME UPWARDS OF 800 DOLLARS. MY GRILL SHOULD BE FIXED AND THIS SHOULD BE COVERED AT NO COST. I DRIVE ON NORMAL ROADS AND AT NORMAL SPEEDS. THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR. *TR
