2002 Infiniti I35 Transmission and drivetrain Problems

“I own a 2002 Infiniti I35. While I was driving at approximately 35 miles per hour, making a left turn, I was hit on the rear driver's side (t-boned). Non of my air bags deployed and I was severely injured. I sustained injuries to my neck, both shoulders and my back. The driver of the other vehicle illegally ran a stop sign. My vehicle was taken to my residence and was not repaired. As a direct and proximate result of the accident I have been permanently disabled and constantly dealing with the pain. I'm sure I would be in much better shape if the airbag would have deployed. …”

“I have had two transmissions in this 2002 Infiniti I35 and now may have to have the third. Summer of 2011 I experienced intermittent issues with the engine racing and the transmission apparently disengaging, with no power to the wheels. First time I took it to the dealer they couldn't detect any problems as there was no service engine soon warning on the dash board so their computer couldn't detect a problem. Happened again and the technician told me not to turn the ignition off when I got to the shop but to let the engine keep running. …”

“Traveled approx 25 miles. Was first in line to approach a red stop light. As the accelerator was let up and brakes applied, the car did not stop. As the car crossed into the intersection of on-coming traffic, I took the automatic transmission from drive into neutral . The car stopped and rpms increased indicating a stuck accelerator. I tapped the accelerator pedal twice and the car went to idle. I had the car towed to the Infiniti dealership who still has it and has not been able to duplicate the problem. …”

“1) traveling at high speeds 50-60 MPH for a considerable time frame, one-two hours. On a highway with stop lights-when trying to stop, my Infiniti I35 (yr.2002) accelerates while I am trying to brake. The car lurches foward with the engine going from 1500 RPM to 7000 rpms. The incident repeated itself later on 8/16. We were traveling from baltimore to virgina on route 50--good road accomodating high speeds but has lights as one passes through eastern shore towns. The car was towed to infinite's nearest dealership in va beach. …”

“The vehicle was traveling about 35 MPH when all of a sudden driver heard a loud noise coming from the passenger side. Owner got out the vehicle, and noticed that the axle bearing sheered off. Manufacturer was notified by consumer.”
