“As previously mentioned and depicted copious times on multiple sites, my 2004 G35 (built in 2003 and purchased 11/03 w/ only 43,544 miles) stalls w/o warning. Engine and vdc lights show only after engine stalls. If idle rpms are increased to 1,000, to prevent stalling, the engine idle lopes noticeably. This safety issue has occurred both while stopped (stop lights/signs) and while driving 4 out of the last 4 times driven. Research indicates the fix consists of camshaft position sensor and crankshaft angle sensors. It is patently obvious that regardless of mileage (I.e. …”
NHTSA complaint #10881347, filed 2016-06, 43,544 miles“The fuel gauge on my car has been incorrect for the past 3 months. It would suddenly dip down to empty even after traveling only 20 miles on a full tank of gas. The gage would bounce up and down and has caused me to panic many times while diving on the freeway. The only way to truly know how much is left in the tank is by resetting my trip monitor after each fueling and not to exceed 220 miles before my next refill. I have a cousin who has the same exact car with the same problem.”
NHTSA complaint #10318721, filed 2010-03, 42,000 miles“I was filling gas on my 2004 Infiniti G35 coupe. After filling the gas tank ($35 worth), I started driving off only to be stopped by another driver 100 feet away fromthe gas station. The driver stopped me to let me know that my car was leaking gas. After looking at it, gas was just pouring from underneath my car, in less than minutes my gas tank was empty and the car will not start. After doing some research online, I read that there are recalls on the 2004 inifniti G35 (fuel leakage problems). …”
NHTSA complaint #10322661, filed 2010-03, 17,000 miles“I exited the beltway (i495) and the engine quit with no warning. I was able to restart the car and proceed. . A few days later I was driving and the engine quit again and the service engine light came on. I checked the manual and it said I could continue to drive the car. I took the car to a repair shop and they checked he computer codes and said it was a cam sensor, a crank position sensor or a variable timing control sensor or combination or all three. They thought that this was a recall item. I searched and discovered that Infiniti recall 3021 was issued as well as recall 01v357. …”
NHTSA complaint #10762814, filed 2015-09, 78,161 miles“The third brake light on the rear deck has failed for no apparent reason. The car will not pass inspection. They want several hundred dollars to replace the entire unit. I have researched online and found this is a voluminous problem for this model year. It was recalled and addressed by Infiniti for the 2003 model year g and it is still a problem for the 2004 year. This needs to be recalled and fixed accordingly at the manufacturer cost. All these owners are not having the same failing issues without cause. I own two 2004 Infiniti G35 sedans. I used to love both of them. …”
