2005 Infiniti G35 Tires Problems

“Front tires feathering. At around 6000 miles, I noticed that there was an unusual amount of tire roar coming from the front. I have taken the car in for service to 2 different Infiniti dealerships and both said I should simply replace my tires and align . I have less than 15,000 miles on the car. The 350z has a very widespread problem that is similar to this, and as the G35 coupe and 350z share many components, including suspension, I am LED to believe there is a reason for the similarity.”

“2005 Infiniti G35 sedan. Consumer found many problems with car and feels been fooled by dealership. The consumer stated two days, after he purchased the vehicle, he noticed defect. A mechanic confirmed the air bag was not functioning, as the light was flashing, the tires were overly worn, the cd player was not working, the passenger door would not shut properly, the wheels were not aligned and the lower cat shield made a noise.”

“Low tire pressure monitoring systems must be reprogrammed by the dealer if wheels are rotated, if a full size spare tire replaces a wheel the reprogramming is at consumer's cost. This forces consumers to have to go back to the dealership for something which used to be done at home. I blame NHTSA for pushing tire pressure monitoring systems, without enforcing manufacturers making it possible for consumers to set their own tire pressures , and this added unnecessary cost to regular maintenance which used to be free.”

“The contact stated the front driver side tire had a bulge present. Further examination showed a crack on the sidewall tire caused it to fail. The vehicle was taken to a tire shop, who determined the problem was due to hitting a pothole and not a manufacturer defect. The contact viewed many similar complaints via the NHTSA website about this issue. No repairs had been made. This was a goodyear eagle, size: 245/35r19.”
