2003 INFINITI G35 Engine Problems

my g35 dies randomly i tried to have nissan in garden city kansas to fix they said they dont work on recalls not safe to drive 3 hours to Wichita kansas im not sure what todo

The car engine cuts off / stalls while driving. This has happened multiple times. When driving on highway, the engine stops running, the car loses all power, and it is very difficult to restart the car. I had the car inspected and the local mechanic stated the crankshaft sensor/ camshaft censor is not working properly and he believed this was on recall, but Infiniti stated that my car is not covered. This is extremely dangerous - call stalls in the middle of the road with no power at all.

Twice while driving approximately 70 mph on the freeway, the engine shut off without warning and the service engine soon warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle coasted. There was no shoulder to pull over to. I put it in neutral and it restarted. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the camshaft and crank sensor failed. I looked online and saw a recall for the cam shaft and crank sensors for the, 2003 Infiniti G35. However, when I called, I was told that my vin was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was 230,000.

SOMETIMES, THE CAR WON'T START BECUASE OF THE SAME ISSUE. HOWEVER, MY LOCAL INFINITI DEALER AND THE INFINITI CUSTOMER SERVICE LINE HAVE BOTH INFORMED ME THAT THEY CANNOT FIX THIS ISSUE BECUASE MY VIN WAS NOT LISTED ON THAT RECALL. I BOUGHT THIS CAR AROUND 6-7 YEARS AGO, SO I WOULD NOT HAVE EVEN BEEN ABLE TO TAKE IT IN TO GET FIXED SINCE THEY NOTED IT WAS ONLY 2003 FOR A CERTAIN TIME. THIS JUST RECENTLY STARTED HAPPENING A FEW MONTHS AGO, AND I FINALLY FOUND THE EXACT ISSUE ON YOUR WEBSITE. I VERIFIED THAT MY CARS COMPUTER NOTED THAT THOSE SPECIFIC SENSORS ARE BAD! I'M VERY UPSET WITH INFINITI NOT EVEN CARING TO HELP ONE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS FOR A MAJOR SAFETY AND LIABILITY ISSUE! THIS KEEPS HAPPENING OVER AND OVER AT RANDOM, AND I'M HONESTLY NERVOUS TO DRIVE MY CAR. THIS COULD EASILY POSE DANGER TO OTHERS OR MYSELF IF THE CAR DOES THIS WHILE DRIVING IN THE FUTURE!

VEHICLE HAS AN OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE. PREVIOUS OWNERS HAVE OWNED THE CAR WITH UNDER 100K MILES AND ALWAYS HAVE HAD OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR. CURRENTLY THE VQ35DE ENGINE CONSUMES ABOUT 2 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 2 WEEKS/300 MILES..THE CAR IS ALWAYS UNDER LIGHT LOAD. CAR RARELY EVER SEES HARD ACCELERATION OR HIGH RPMS. PREVIOUS OWNER WARNED ME OF THE OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM WHICH THEY DEALT WITH FOR THE FULL TIME OF OWNING THE VEHICLE. I ALSO OWN A 2002 NISSAN MAXIMA WITH THE SAME VQ35DE ENGINE AND HAS AN OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM AS WELL BUT NOT NEARLY AS BAD.. ITS VERY SIMPLE TO GOOGLE VQ35 OIL CONSUMPTION AND FIND A PLETHORA OF LINKS TO ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. SEEMS LIKE THE BORE ON THE BLOCK IS MILLED INCORRECTLY WHICH CAUSES THE OIL GETTING PAST THE TOP RING. *TR

AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, I WAS DRIVING IT AROUND FOR ABOUT A WEEK. I CAME TO A STOP ONE DAY AND MY OIL LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND ASKED THEM TO CHECK IT. THE DIPSTICK IS VERY HARD TO READ, UNLIKE MOST CARS, LONG STORY SHORT THE DEALERSHIP CHANGED IT. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THEY DID WHEN I GOT IT BECAUSE OF THE COLOR. EVER SINCE I HAVE BEEN KEEPING TRACK OF THE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE THAT I HAVE BEEN HAVING. I HAVE A AFTERMARKET WARRANTY BUT THEY ARE NO LONGER HELPING ME WITH MY ISSUES (OR FEEL AS THOUGH I AM NOT BEING HELPED) WITH MY CAR AT SUCH LOW MILES I HAVE LOOKED AND THERE ARE SEVERAL ISSUES WITH VQ35DE MOTORS WITH OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUES THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED. I HAVE AND AM HAVING SEVER ISSUES WITH OIL CONSUMPTION. I JUST HAS A COMPRESSION TEST AND I HAVE #'S BUT I HAVE TO CALL THE DEALERSHIP, THEY ALSO JUST DID A LEAK DOWN TEST TO SEE IF IT MIGHT BE THE RINGS JUST IN CASE THE COMPRESSION TEST DIDN'T GET IT. ** I NOW CURRENTLY BURN 1.2 QUARTS OF OIL IN 800 MILES. WAS THE LAST AND LATEST OIL CONSUMPTION TEST THAT THE DEALERSHIP HAS RUN. AFTER PASSING BOTH TESTS. THE MOST I HAVE SEEN MY CAR USE IS 3QTS IN 3K. NOT GOOOD!

AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. IT WAS BASICALLY A MOVING PARKED CAR!!! THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED SO IT WAS REALLY HARD TO PULL OVER. THANK GOD I WAS ON A LOCAL STREET. I DIDN'T FORCE THE STEERING TOO MUCH B/C THAT COULD AFFECT THE POWER STEERING. ONCE ON THE SIDE, THE CAR TOOK REALLY LONG TO START UP, I MEAN ABOUT 5 SECONDS FROM HEARING THE CRANK TO ACTUAL STARTUP. USUALLY IT?S INSTANTANEOUS. NOW, THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON, VDC OFF, AND SLIP LIGHTS WERE ON. I GOT MY CAR CHECKED OUT WITH A SCANNER/DIAGNOSIS AND IT RETURNED CODE ?P0340 CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR.? I JUST FIND IT REALLY HARD TO BELIEVE NISSAN/INFINITI DOES NOT COVER SUCH A DANGEROUS PROBLEM. I CAN UNDERSTAND THAT EVERY CAR HAS MECHANICAL/ELECTRICAL ISSUES BUT FOR A CAR TO STOP WORKING ON THE ROAD LIKE THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE BUT ACCORDING TO NISSAN/INFINITI MY CAR VIN IS NOT FOR THIS CAMPAIGN SO I WAS REJECTED.

THE CAR SIMPLY DIED AFTER PULLING ON TO A BUSY HIGHWAY. IT WOULD NOT START FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. AFTER TAKING THE CAR TO THE INFINITY DEALERSHIP I WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS A CAM SHIFT SENSOR FAILURE. NOT JUST ONE, BUT TWO SENSORS. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS MODEL BUT I CANNOT GET THE INFINITY TO COMPLY WITH THIS RECALL AND THE SUBSEQUENTLY CHARGED ME $500+ TO REPLACE THE TWO FOULED PARTS. VERY DISAPPOINTING. *JS

HELLO, I OWN A 2003 INFINITI G35 AND HAVE AN ISSUE WITH MY CAR OVERHEATING AFTER DRIVING IT FOR SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. ALSO HAVE NOTICED A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON. I'VE HAD MULTIPLE MECHANICS LOOK AT THE CAR AND REPLACE ITEMS SUCH AS THE WATER PUMP, THERMOSTAT HOUSING, AND ENGINE FANS AND CONTINUE TO STILL HAVE THE ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE ON AND OFF BETWEEN MECHANIC VISITS FOR ALMOST A YEAR NOW. THIS IS A SERIOUS HAZARD, CONSIDERING THAT THESE INCIDENTS HAVE HAPPEN WITH ME ALSO DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AND HAVING TO PULL OVER AND GET MY CAR TOWED TO MY PLACE OF RESIDENCE. I HAVE NOTICED THAT I AM NOT THE FIRST PERSON WITH THIS ISSUE AND A NUMBER OF DRIVERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. JUST DO A GOOGLE WEB SEARCH FOR "2003 INFINITI G35 OVERHEATING" AND YOU WILL HAVE A NUMBER OF RESULTS COME UP ON THIS ISSUE AND ALSO A NUMBER OF OTHER DRIVERS POSTING ON THE SAME ISSUE WITH NO RESOLUTION. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THIS IS PART OF RECALL THAT MY CAR HASN'T BEEN IDENTIFIED AS PART OF. IF NOT, I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT A RECALL FOR THIS MODEL NEEDS TO HAPPEN FOR THIS ISSUE SINCE THIS IS A SERIOUS HAZARD TO DRIVE THE CAR IN THIS STATE. ANY ASSISTANCE ON THIS ON GOING ISSUE WILL BE APPRECIATED. *TR

PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT WHEN THE ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING ALL OF A SUDDEN. THE POWER STEERING ALSO WENT OUT. EVERYTHING ELSE INCLUDING THE ELECTRICAL SEEMED TO STILL WORK. SERVICE ENGINE SOON, "SLIP" AND "VDC OFF" LIGHTS DISPLAYED ON THE DASHBOARD IMMEDIATELY. THIS SEEMS TO BE RELATED TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID # 03V455000. I CALLED THE MANUFACTURER WHO INFORMED ME MY VIN WAS NOT WITHIN THE RANGE OF THIS RECALL. SEARCHING ONLINE REVEALS OTHER OWNERS WHOSE VINS ARE NOT WITHIN THE RANGE ALSO HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE. IT SEEMS TO ME THIS RECALL SHOULD BE RE-INVESTIGATED AND REEVALUATED AS THIS IS A SERIOUS DANGER TO THE PUBLIC (IMAGINE THIS HAPPENING ON A FREEWAY WHICH HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER OWNERS). *TR

ENGINE BECAME INOPERABLE WHILE DRIVING CAUSING A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON SIMULTANEOUSLY (CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, SLIP LIGHT, VDC LIGHT) AT THE TIME. CAR WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED WITH SOME TROUBLE. PROBLEM REPEATED ITSELF (STALLING, LOSS OF POWER, STARTING DIFFICULTY) OVER NEXT COUPLE DAYS, ALTHOUGH WARNING LIGHTS NEVER WENT OFF. INDEPENDENT MECHANIC IDENTIFIED PROBLEM AS CAM POSITION SENSOR FAILURES & ADVISED THERE WAS A NHTSA SAFETY RECALL (NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID 03V455000) FOR THE PROBLEM WITH 2003 G35S, BUT THAT MY VIN WAS OUTSIDE THE CAMPAIGN RECALL VINS. HE SUGGESTED I CONTACTED INFINITI. I CONTACTED BOTH DEALER AND INFINITI NATIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE WHO ACKNOWLEDGED THERE WAS A CAM POSITION SENSOR PROBLEM WITH 2003 G35S, BUT BECAUSE MY VIN WAS NOT IN THE CAMPAIGN THEY REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING TO ADDRESS THE SAFETY ISSUE. I HAD THE DEALER REPLACE THE CAM POSITION SENSORS AT MY EXPENSE (ABOUT $1500). THERE ARE A NUMBER OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS FILED WITH THE NHTSA ABOUT THIS PROBLEM WITH NO APPARENT RESOLUTION WITH INFINITI. THE RECALL CAMPAIGN 03V455000 NEEDS TO BE EXTENDED TO COVER ALL PROBLEM VEHICLES. *TR

CAR WOULD STOP RUNNING (ENGINE WOULD DIE OUT) THE REASON FOR MY COMPLAINT IS THAT I WENT TO INFINITI DEALER TO GET THEM TO FIX THE PROBLEM, WHICH THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE "CAM POSITION SENSOR" THAT WAS BAD, YET DIDN'T TELL ME AND NOW I FIND OUT THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS ITEM (ITB03-072 SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN) I HAD MY PERSONAL MECHANIC FIX AT MY EXPENSE. SHOULD THEY HAVE FIXED AT THEIR EXPENSE AS PART OF RECALL? PLEASE HELP ME RECUPERATE MY MONEY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
