“The seats on this and two other FX35's we own from Infiniti rock back and forth while driving. The seat position is not stable. This is also widely reported with the g35 and Infiniti cannot fix it. I believe it to be critically dangerous. The sway back to front is sudden and significant enough to jar the driver causing loss of control. My seat literally rocks about 1/3 back and forth like a rocking chair. We have another one that does exactly the same thing. In the snow I can imagine the sudden sway to be significant enough that a driver may lose control. I also wonder about crash durability. …”

“Ever since I bought my infiniti the air bag light flashed rapidly on the dash. I received notice a couple years ago about the air bags being recalled.I took my vehicle to Roseville Infiniti and supposedly the airbags were replaced I expected it to take a couple hours it was in and out in under 2 hours. When i left the deLership the light was still blinking and never quit blinking. My concern was to call and ask why it was still blinking ? I was told that it probably wasnt reset however the air bag was replaced . …”

“The recall on the air bags has kept me from being able take my kids to their events, take prospects/clients out and when I called infinity of charlotte, nc-where I purchased the car they would not offer me a rental until fixed. Instead they offered to replace the air bag with the exact same model air bag. The service department rep said there was only a 1% chance the bags would deploy spraying shrapnel throughout the cabin. There have been 15 deaths already and I would never risk someone being killed or disfigured. I unfortunately don't have a rental car so I risk it everyday. …”
