“Well I bought this car from bellflower auto mart thinking that I bought a pretty dependable car come to find out the previous owner was drinking and driving and totaled the car, so now the car should have a salvage title but it doesnt the airbag system in the car does not work at all, the dealer bought the wrecked car from auction and repaired it themselves and sold it to me as if it was never in any accident, I asked for the carfax report but it unfortunately slipped my mind after all the paper work, but I went the next day to return the car after I found all this out and was kicked off the…”
NHTSA complaint #10280176, filed 2009-08, 135,000 miles“2003 G35 sedan central console A/C, selected lights, and audio controls stopped working suddenly. Cannot control heat/defrost/air conditioning. Caused windows to fog up quickly impairing visual field while driving on highway. This is very hazardous because of its unexpected and unpredictable onset.”
NHTSA complaint #10362132, filed 2010-10, 84,500 miles“My G35 and many other G35 owners all seem to have problems with our rear high mount brake light (third brake light inside the back windshield). If that many people are having problems with it, there should be a recall to fix this issue. I've heard even replacement bulbs go out very quickly, similar to the power window motors that always fail even after replacement. This could be very dangerous, especially if the owner of the car is not aware his light went out. Also more costly than it should be.”
NHTSA complaint #10394501, filed 2011-04“2003 Infiniti g-35 blown up in driveway and house caught fire. The fire department determined the fire originated inside of the trunk where the trunk light bulb became so hot that the light bulb exploded, the hot particles from the light bulb caught the trunk and the contents in the trunk on fire. The consumer stated she forgot to close the trunk securely. Before the fire, the consumer stated she had electrical problems with the window and sunroof.”
NHTSA complaint #10113717, filed 2005-03“Problem started with radio not displaying any lights or script across display. After about a week the radio would not come on until the engine had been running for a few minutes and still would not display any lights the whole time. A few days later the temperature controls stopped being accessible. The buttons for the radio and the temp controls don't work. The temperature now does whatever it wants based on the auto controls. It will randomly change whether the air blows from the floor level or on top, and change force of air that blows out. There is no way of setting defrost. …”
