THE TRANSMISSION HAS FAILED MORE THAN ONCE ALREADY AND BASED ON MY RESEARCH I'VE COME TO BELIEVE THAT IT IS DUE TO THE COOLANT MIXING WITH TRANSMISSION FLUID IN THE RADIATOR.

WE RECEIVED THE CAR APRIL 18, 2020. WE WERE TOLD THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR BESIDES THE GAS GAUGE ON THE DASH. ON APRIL 20,2020, WE WERE ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR STOPPED. WE TURNED THE CAR OFF FOR A BIT AND THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTED. THE ENGINE WILL REV BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T GO FORWARD NOR REVERSE. WE LET THE CAR REST FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES AND IT STARTED TO WORK. WE THEN TOOK THE CAR TO THE MECHANIC THE NEXT DAY AND HE TOLD US THAT THE TRANSMISSION WASN'T NO GOOD AND THAT'S THERE WAS AN EXHAUST LEAK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 INFINITI G35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DYNAMIC CONTROL LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A MECHANIC AND HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPAIRED, BUT THAT DID NOT CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS RELATED TO THE CRANK SHAFT POSITION SENSOR OR THE CAM SHAFT POSITION SENSOR. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 142,000.

THE VEHICLE THAT I HAVE DONE SO MUCH RESEARCH ON IS THE 2003-2006 G35 WHICH I OWN NOW HAS A ISSUE WITH THE CLUTCH PEDAL STICKING AND GETTING STUCK DURING DRIVING SITUATIONS WHICH TO ME IS A VERY HORRIBLE HAZARD FOR US IF DO TO HIGH MILES ON FREEWAY AND CLUTCH STICKS TO THE FLOOR, WHICH HAD OCCURRED TO ME AND MADE ME PANIC AND ALMOST HAD CAUSES A ACCIDENT REALIZING THAT IT HAD GOT STUCK AND I HAD TO YANK IT OUT THE BOTTOM OF THE FLOOR. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE A EXTREME ISSUE TO YOU GUYS AND SHOULD BE NOTIFIED IMMEDIATELY TO INFINITY DEALERSHIPS SO THAT THIS CAN BE TAKEN CARE OF. I HAVE LOOKED ALL OVER AND TO MANY OTHERS WHO HAD THE EXACT SAME DEFECT AS MY VEHICLE NOW. *TR

WAS COMING TO A STOP AT RED LIGHT, JUST BEFORE CAR STOPPED MOVING IT FELT LIKE THE TRANS DOWN SHIFTED HARD. I HAD MY FOOT ON BRAKE, ALREADY STOPPED AND CAR LUNGED FORWARD. IT FELT LIKE IT WAS GOING TO TAKE OFF AND HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, I PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND THE CAR REVVED UP TO ABOUT 6500 RPM FOR 3 TO 4 SECONDS THEN DROPPED DOWN TO NORMAL. I AN POSITIVE I DID NOT HAVE MY FOOT ON THE GAS AND THE FLOOR MAT WAS NOT PUSHING THE PEDAL, I TALKED TO MY MECHANIC AND HE THINKS THE THROTTLE HAD TO BE OPEN AS THIS IS A DRIVE BY WIRE CAR. *TR

I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH MY CAR. THE MOST SEVERE HAVE BEEN A REPLACEMENT BOLT ON THE AXLE THAT MADE A CLICKING SOUND WHEN I PUT IT IN REVERSE. THAT TOOK PLACE WITHIN 2 MONTHS OF MY OWNING THE CAR. THE OTHER HAS BEEN MY BRAKES. THEY WERE MAKING SQUEALING SOUNDS WHEN THEY WERE DEPRESSED, AT 4500 MILES. I KEPT COMPLAINING TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY FINALLY REALIZED THAT THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE FRONT BRAKES. IT WAS FIXED AT 9,000 MILES. THE SQUEALING SUBSIDED SOMEWHAT, BUT THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A SOUND. I TOOK MY CAR IN AGAIN RECENTLY FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND COMPLAINED THAT THE SOUND HAS STILL NOT GONE AWAY. THEY SAID THERE WAS DUST ON THE BRAKES, AND THAT ONCE IT WAS CLEANED UP, IT SHOULD BE FINE. THEY SAID MY BACK BRAKES WERE NOW AN ISSUE. MYSTERIOUSLY, AFTER PICKING UP MY CAR, THE SQUEALING WAS WORSE AND WAS NOW COMING FROM THE BACK OF THE CAR. THE SERVICE REP SAID THAT I NEED TO FIX THEM WITHIN THE 1500 MILES. I WAS NOT HAVING ANY ISSUES WITH BACK BRAKES UP UNTIL THIS POINT. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT THE SERVICE TECH TAMPERED DID SOMETHING TO THEM. FINALLY, MY SUNROOF STARTING GIVING OUT AND REQUIRES A NEW MOTOR. THIS ALL HAPPENED WITHIN 2 YEARS WITH BARELY 14,000 MILES! *JB
