2009 INFINITI G37 Air Bags Problems

Light blinks for (no airbag on passenger side) working. Light also blinks on dashboard showing no airbags. My car has just over 76,000 miles with meticulous maintenance and no crashes, accidents or even bumps. There are countless complaints, inquiries and threads on the internet regarding the above mentioned problem. I don't know if anyone has taken the time to make an official inquiry but it requires your scrutiny. The fix is a new seat and or an old one that the components still work. There are countless people drivng this vehicle without airbags. We need a fix that won't cost $10,000 (estimate from dealership). Also, where can one find a seat??? Inifinity needs to provide a fix that allows the airbags to function properly without the consumer having to find a new/used seat (and none are available nationwide). The modules are a mere $200 but integrating them into a seat is impossible, so the "fix" is a new seat. This problem exists as the cars age. I project that all inifinities with this style seat have, or are going to have, the same problem as they age. If not, what remedy did Infinity offer in its newer models, leaving the rest of us driving death traps, with no means or opportunity for safely find a "fix". Attached is a copy of the scan from an auto body delearship regarding the lights.

Front passenger air bag occupancy sensor failure. Sensor is located on front passages seat and activates or deactivates passenger air bags based on occupancy and or weight. The vehicle has less than 90,000 miles. Passenger airbag/seat belt warning lamp on. Passenger airbag off indicator light remain on even when passenger seated. Repair cost estimated over $5,000. Vehicle will not pass inspection.

I am the original owner of this 2009 G37 sedan with only 12K miles. This car has never been in an accident. It is perfectly maintained and sits in a garage 99% of the time. Last week the airbag light flashed on. The dealer said the error code was B1018 (Occupant Classification Sensor malfunction). The cost of the passenger seat cushion alone is $7,500. This problem was also found on the 2007 & 2008 G37 models and part of a NHTSA recall (#08V521000). I found this problem all over the internet and this NHTSA site for this model year G37. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM. Why isn't this part of the 2007/2008 recall when the sensor is bad in both instances?

The passenger airbag does not work. The light on the dashboard indicated it needed service. When I took it into the dealer, they said it was $7,000 to fix. (More than the car is worth for resale.) After some research, I’ve come across complaints about this on multiple sites & comment boards. This is a serious safety issue. I can no longer have passengers in my car (such as my children). Something has to be done.

At only 35,500 miles on my 2009 G37 the Passenger Safety Air Bag sensor light continues to blink. Forums are filled with same 2009 passenger safety air bag sensor problems. Infiniti will not cover. Suggested repair is $6,050.00

This vehicle has been in our ownership since July 2011, making us the second owner. Currently there is approximately 92,219 miles on the car. The airbag light began blinking without any incident or accident. We took it to the local dealership this week. We were told the occupant sensor failure code B1018 was the issue. Per their words on our invoice "cannot get sensor from Infiniti. Will need seat bottom to correct the issue." The estimated price for this repair is $6,400. I noticed the same problem was reported in the 2007 and 2008 models, and these models were recalled. So now I have no airbag protection which makes this a safety issue. I have spoke with Infiniti corporate office regarding this issue without any assistance in resolving the problem. In my opinion this is a manufacturing defect just as it was in the 2007 and 2008 models, and should be recalled.

Single owner G37 sedan diagnosed with error code B1018 after reporting a flashing passenger air bag light that suddenly came on. Service provider unbolted seat, disconnected occupant sensor component, cleaned all connections, reconnected and secured so that connector couldn't move. Tried to erase code but unable to do do. Was told I would need a new bottom seat cushion and frame at a cost of approx $3-4k (not including labor). Advised to look at NHSTA for recall information for myself as technician indicated there is no recall for my vehicle. My prior car was a G37 sedan which did have a recall for the exact same issue and it's illogical that this one does not. In reviewing this site, more than 50% of the complaints for this vehicle are tied to the air bags and I stopped reading other complaints when the first five I read all had the exact same issue. Namely, that the light came on suddenly without cause and the only way to correct it, was to replace the seat and sensor. Personally, there is rarely a passenger in my car and the only logical conclusion is that this part is faulty and the original G37 issue was not corrected. Subjecting consumers to the significant repair expense and more importantly, the inherent safety issue a faulty air bag can create, the manufacturer ought to bear the responsibility to correct.

My dad gifted his 2009 infinity G37, which he purchased new, to my daughter. it has ~50,000 miles. One week into driving the car the air bag sign started flashing. Diagnosis indicated a B1018 error. Infinity of Escondido confirmed a failed OCS sensor for front passenger seat. Replacement cost: part $4100 bottom cushion with frame + $650 labor. Since the car has been hardly driven since originally purchased by my dad, it is clearly a case of a defective sensor, also considering that infinity G37 2007 & 2008 model years have been recalled for the same issue (recall # 08V521000). The entire airbag system in the car has been disabled due to this faulty sensor - this should fall under federal safety mandate and Infinity is refusing to assist. Called their consumer affairs department with case elevated to regional manager (case # [XXX]) making a request to at least meet me halfway through cost of parts - Their answer is sorry "NO". such complaints are prevalent across the internet with stories similar to mine and Infinity is not taking responsibility. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

On my 2009 Infiniti g37, the supplemental airbag warning light keeps flashing. I was told by the dealer that the problem is the sensors in the seat cushion and the cost of fixing it is $7,050.00. I asked if that was a common problem and they said yes. This light just start flashing one day without any apparent cause. My issue is that there should be a recall on this since this affects so many of the Infiniti g series. This is a problem that so many owners face and it is not caused by wear and tear or accident or any disturbance whatsoever. In my case, my right front seat is seldom used. I searched the internet and visited the infiniti forums and well as facebook and other platforms and the number of infiniti owners with this woe are many. I honestly think this happens due to some manufacturers defect and if there is an accident, the appropriate airbags may not deploy so this is a potentially dangerous situation. Infiniti needs to issue a recall for this item.

A recall was issued for a faulty passenger side airbag sensor on the Infinity G37 model year 2007 -2008 (08V521000). I own a 2009 G37 and it would appear this car is experiencing the same safety issue. The airbag off light for the front passenger seat remains illuminated even with a 200 pound adult seated in it. I also have a constantly flashing airbag warning that is displayed on the dashboard. I am extremely concerned that should my vehicle be involved in a crash, passenger side airbag will not deploy even though there is someone seated in that seat. Infiniti has stated that to repair this issue will cost over $5000 which is nearly the entire value of the car. This recall should be extended to additional model years of the G37.

The contact owns a 2009 Infiniti G37. The contact stated that the passenger’s side air bag warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who informed the contact that the seat needed to be replaced. The passenger’s side seat wiring and sensor were faulty. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 53,000. The consumer stated he has taken is vehicle to the dealer and filed a complaint with Infiniti and both parties are stating there is nothing that they can do.

Mileage: 53,000

Car got a flashing airbag light after battery replacement. Reset multiple times just for light to come back. Took to Mears Nissan dealership for diagnosis. Diagnosed with bad occupant detection sensor. Dealership quoted me $4,500 for part without labor. Perfectly good car no longer has operating airbags, my personal safety is now at risk because the cost of repair is greater than the cars value, and the part is on back order for an extended unknown period of time. Vehicle is available for inspection. No other lights at time of incident.

The contact owns a 2009 Infiniti G37. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the airbag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the passenger’s side airbag sensor was damaged and needed to be replaced. The contact was informed that the part to fix the vehicle was no longer being manufactured. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage is approximately 100,000.

Mileage: 100,000

In 2018 dash and passenger airbag light illuminated. Took it to dealer and was told that occupancy sensor in passenger seat needed to be replaced. In 2021 dash airbag light flashing and passenger airbag light off illuminated. Code determined occupancy sensor. Cost to repair basic car safety feature $7000.00 which is prohibitive.

THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IS FLASHING ON MY - I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND ASK THEM TO INVESTIGATE OR IF THERE WAS A RECALL I'M CONCERNED THAT THE AIRBAG IS IN DEFAULT THEY CLAIMED THERE WAS NO RECALL AND THAT IT WOULD COST ME LOT OF MONEY FOR THEM TO FIX IT .ITS STILL FLASHING AND THAT WAS ABOUT A YR AGO DEALER SHOULD HAVE RECORD KERNEY MESA INF SAN DIEGO

UPON STARTING THE 2009 G37 WITH JUST OVER 73K MILES ON IT, THE AIRBAG LIGHT BEGAN FLASHING.THE FOLLOWING WEEK, ON DECEMBER 28, 2020, I TOOK THE CAR TO SEWELL INFINITI OF FT. WORTH TO HAVE THE PROBLEM DIAGNOSED. THE FAULT CODE "B1018 OCCUPANT SENSOR UNIT FAIL" WAS FOUND. THE ONLY REMEDY IS TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SEAT LOWER CUSHION ASSEMBLY FOR $6575.89. THE UPSHOT IS THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE WITH A PERSON IN THE PASSENGER SEAT BECAUSE THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY.

Mileage: 73,200

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT IS BLINKING DUE TO A FAULTY SENSOR CONTAINED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. IF THIS LIGHT DOES NOT TURN OFF, NO AIRBAGS WILL DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT, WHICH IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. INFINITI CHARGES MORE THAN $7000 TO REPLACE THE SENSOR AND THE SEAT TO FIX THIS OUT OF WARRANTY. INFINITI REFUSES TO DO A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE WHICH HAS BEEN FOUND TO BE VERY COMMON IN NISSAN AND INFINITI VEHICLES.

Mileage: 66,500

I TURNED ON MY CAR IN MY DRIVEWAY ONE DAY AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON. IT TURNS OUT THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR HAS GONE BAD IN MY CAR. THE CAR HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF AND HAS 50,000 MILES. THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON AND EXPENSIVE ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL. NOT TO MENTION THAT IF YOU'RE IN AN ACCIDENT AND HAVE A PASSENGER SITTING IN YOUR CAR, THEIR AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY.

Mileage: 50,000

FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG WEIGHT SENSOR FAILURE. AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY DUE TO SENSOR FAILURE. REPLACEMENT PART IS AN ENTIRE SEAT AND WORTH APPROXIMATELY THE VALUE OF THE CAR. 67K MILES ON THE VEHICLE, STARTED WHILE PARKED. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL.

THE AIRBAG SENSOR LOCATED IN BASE OF PASSENGER SEAT IS FAULTY RENDERING THE AIRBAG NOT FUNCTIONAL. THE SENSOR IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR REPLACEMENT AND THE BOTTOM SEAT UNIT MUST BE REPLACED AT THE COST OF $7,000. AFTER RESEARCHING THE ISSUE, IT APPEARS TO BE WIDESPREAD TO THE MODEL AND YEAR. THE AIRBAG LIGHT BLINKS ON THE DASHBOARD INDICATING AN ISSUE. THE ISSUE WAS CONFIRMED AT HE INFINITI DEALER AND ALSO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC.

Mileage: 84,000

THE AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED BLINKING, I GOT IT CHECKED AND I WAS TOLD THE INFANT SEAT SENSOR WAS BAD AND ALL THE SEAT HAS TO BE CHANGED $6000. I CHECKED A COUPLE OF ONLINE FORUMS AND IT SEEMS LIKE IN THE PAST 2 YEARS PEOPLE WITH THE SAME CAR MODEL HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM. BASICALLY THE PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR IS NOT WORKING SO IT SHUTS OFF THE AIRBAG SYSTEM FOR THE PASSENGER.

Mileage: 80,000

AIRBAG SENSOR WAS BLINKING ON MY DASH AFTER STARTING IT IN MY DRIVEWAY TO DRIVE TO WORK. I TOOK IT IN TO AN INFINITY DEALERSHIP AND ONLY TO FIND OUT IT WAS A SEAT SENSOR TO BE REPLACE WITH ONLY 40K MILES ON THE VEHICLE. THE PART ALONE COST $6340.00 WHICH ISN'T WORTH FIXING. I WASN'T TOLD OF ANY OTHER OPTION AND SEEMS TO HAVE HAPPENED A LOT WITH OTHER OWNERS AND NO RECALL OF ANY SORT IS TO BE ISSUED.

Mileage: 40,500

NEED TO REPLACE EITHER OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM CONTROL UNIT WHICH IS PART OF THE LOWER SEAT ASSEMBLY. COST APPROX. 4000 TO 5000 THOUSAND DOLLARS OR REPLACE AIR BAG DIAGNOSIS SENSOR UNIT WHICH IS UNDER CENTER CONSOLE. COST APPROX. 1700 DOLLARS. CANNOT TELL ME WHICH ONE TO REPLACE. CAR HAS 34000 MILES ON IT. INTERNET TELLS ME THAT THIS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE.

AIRBAG LIGHT IS BLINKING SO TOOK TO DEALERSHIP CHARGED $149.00 AND SAID THEY CLEARED CODES...SERVICE MAN SAID THAT SOMETHING ABOUT PASSENGER SEAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED FOR AROUND $7000.00...LIGHT HAS COME BACK ON😬

Mileage: 23,522

AIR BAG LIGHT RECENTLY CAME ON. I TOOK TO THE DEALER AND AFTER PAYING A DIAGNOSTIC FEE OF $170 THEY SAID "THE SEAT CUSHION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, OCCUPANT SENSOR IS PART OF IT AND IT WOULD COST ABOUT $7,000+. WITH SO MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL.

Mileage: 85,000

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR REMAINS OFF EVEN WHEN AN ADULT IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. INFINITE DOESN'T CONSIDER IT A SAFETY ISSUE EVEN THOUGH MANY OF THEIR G37 MODELS HAVE THIS ISSUE SO NO RECALL. THE ONLY FIX IS TO REPLACE THE SEAT FOR$6,000 OR MORE ON A CAR WORTH $8,000 NOW.

Mileage: 72,000

AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON & BLINKING FOR ABOUT A MONTH. 2009 INFINITI G37. TOOK CAR FOR REPAIR & WAS ADVISED OVER 5K TO REPAIR SENSOR UNDER PASSENGER SEAT. CAR HAS ONLY 35,000 MILES & HADN'T EVEN BEEN DRIVEN ALL SUMMER AND NO ONE EVER SITS IN PASSENGER SEAT! THIS IS DEFINITELY A DEFECT THAT WARRANTS A RECALL BECAUSE THERE ARE MANY, MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM ALL OVER INTERNET. INFINITI NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS DEFECT.

Mileage: 35,000

PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR BLINKS CONTINUOUSLY. BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD ENTIRE SEAT MUST BE REPLACED. PRICE FOR SEAT IS MORE THAN WHAT THE CAR IS WORTH. SO PASSENGER WILL NOT BE PROTECTED IN CASE OF ACCIDENT.

Mileage: 127,000

MY AIR BAG LIGHT HAS BEEN FLASHING THE LAST FEW MONTHS I TOOK IT TO A SHOP TO SEE IF THE COULD SCAN IT TO SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. WELL IT HAPPENS TO BE THE OCCUPANCY SEAT SENSOR, AND INFINITI DOESS NOT SELL JUST THAT PART, THEY WANT YOU TO BUY THE WHOLE LOWER PART OF THE SEAT, WHICH COMES TO LITTLE OVER 5 THOUSAND DOLLARS??!! SERIOUSLY, NOW THAT THIS ISSUE IS ON THE TABLE ANYONE WITH THE SAME ISSUE GET INTO A SERIOUS WRECK AND THE AIRBAGS DO NOT DEPLOY AS THEY SHOULD THAT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR EVEN DEATH. PLEASE GET THIS RECALLED.

AIR BAG DASHBOARD LIGHT BEGAN FLASHING AND WOULD NOT TURN OFF, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANYONE WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. FAULT CODE B1018 SHOWN WHEN CAR TAKEN TO SHOP. NO WAY TO REPAIR OTHER THAN TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE SENSOR AND PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION, WHICH IS QUOTED AT $5000-$6000 FROM THE MANUFACTURER FOR PARTS. THERE IS NO REASON THAT A DEFECTIVE PASSENGER-SIDE SEAT SENSOR SHOULD DISABLE ALL THE AIRBAGS IN THE VEHICLE. THIS STRONGLY DESERVES A RECALL, AS IT SEEMS TO HAVE SUDDENLY BEEN HAPPENING TO LARGE NUMBERS OF 2009 G37S THIS YEAR. THIS DEFECT PUTS THE DRIVER AT SIGNIFICANT RISK EVEN THOUGH HIS/HER OWN AIRBAG AND ALL OTHER AIRBAG SENSORS SHOULD STILL FUNCTION NORMALLY.

Mileage: 90,000

WARNING LIGHT CAME ON FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SYSTEM THAT IT WAS NOT OPERATIONAL. I RESEARCHED IT AND BELIEVE IT IS A FAULTY SENSOR. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER G37S OF THE SAME MODEL YEAR. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS I BELIEVE THE WHOLE SRS SYSTEM IS NOT WORKING.

PASSENGER AIR BAG OCCUPANT SENSOR IS NO LONGER WORKING. AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT IS ALWAYS FLASHING. FAILURE STARTED DURING NORMAL HIGHWAY DRIVING. REPLACEMENT OF SENSOR IS ESTIMATED AT OVER $7,000. CAR HAS LOW MILEAGE AND RUNS GREAT, BUT WITH THIS SAFETY ISSUE, IT IS A RISK TO DRIVE AND IS WORTHLESS TO SELL AS THE PRICE TO REPAIR IS AS MUCH AS THE VALUE OF THE CAR. NOTICED THIS ISSUE IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE MODEL THROUGH THE YEARS; HOWEVER, NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN MADE. ACTION IS NEEDED.

Mileage: 75,000

THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON MY 2009 INFINITY G37 CONVERTIBLE WAS FLASHING SO I TOOK THE CAR TO THE INFINITY DEALER ON 8/22/19 AND THE PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED AS A BAD OCCUPANT SENSOR (CODE 1018). DEALER SAID THAT THE SENSOR WAS A PART OF THE LOWER SEAT AND THAT IT HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A GROSSLY EXCESSIVE COST OF $6911.13. DEALER SAID THAT BECAUSE THE SENSOR WAS BAD THE ENTIRE SRS SYSTEM IN MY CAR IS COMPROMISED AND WILL NOT DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT. I'VE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND IT APPEARS THAT HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF G37 OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS SAME ISSUE. I AM RESPECTFULLY REQUESTING THAT NHTSA ISSUE A SAFETY RECALL FOR THE MANUFACTURER TO FIX THIS PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 INFINITI G37. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE OWNER'S MANUAL STATED THAT IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, THE AIR BAG MAY NOT DEPLOY. INFINITI OF NASHUA (LOCATED AT 11 MARMON DR, NASHUA, NH 03060, (603) 891-1400) WAS CONTACTED BY PHONE AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT HE DECLINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE.

B1018 DTC CODE FOR A FAILED OCCUPANCY SENSOR. MANY MANY REPORTED FAULTS AND INFINITI CHOOSES TO IGNORE THE SERIOUS PROBLEM. IN MOST CASES, THE REPAIR IS $6,000+. SOMETIMES 80-90% OF TRUE VEHICLE'S MARKET VALUE.

Mileage: 88,500

PASSENGER OCCUPANCY SENSOR IS KNOWS TO FAIL ON THESE CARS, AND THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY BECAUSE THE COMPUTER DOESNT KNOW IF ANYONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. THE REPAIR COSTS 60-80% OF VEHICLE'S VALUE, AND NOT FEASIBLE FOR ANY SANE INDIVIDUAL TO PAY FOR THIS FAULTY SENSOR. NISSAN/ INFINITI FAIL TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS FAULTY SENSOR AND WILL NOT REPLACE UNDER SAFETY RECALL. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE.

Mileage: 88,600

I HAVE A 2009 INFINITI G37 WITH 89000 MILES, JUST RECENTLY THE AIR BAG LIGHT STARTED FLASHING FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I TOOK IT TO THE INFINITI DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT THAT WAS BAD, AND WOULD COST OVER $6K TO FIX. MY RESEARCH SUGGESTS THIS IS A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE AND A COMMON PROBLEM WITH INFINITIS THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND CORRECTED BY NISSAN CORP.

Mileage: 89,000

AIRBAG PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR IS FAULTY. AIRBAG SYSTEM REMAINS OFF EVEN WITH NO ONE IN THE SEAT. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ON FORUMS REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEM. DEALER SUGGESTED REPLACING THE ENTIRE SEAT FOR $10,000. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.

Mileage: 70,000

THE AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED BLINKING. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE PASSENGER SEAT OCCUPANCY SENSOR; THEY NEED TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE PASSENGER SEAT. THEY SAID THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY AT THIS TIME AND TOTAL COST OF REPAIRS WILL BE APPROX $8000. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS "JUST SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS" BUT WHEN I SEARCHED ONLINE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME COMPLAINT! THIS ISN'T LIKE REPLACING BRAKES THAT HAVE WORN DOWN; I'VE NEVER USED THE AIRBAGS. AND UNLESS I PAY $8K FOR A KNOWN MALFUNCTION, THEY WON'T DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT AND THE VEHICLE HAS LOST ALL RESALE/TRADE-IN VALUE.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT FLASHES RED ON THE DASH PANEL INDICATING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS NOT ON. IT ALSO SHOWS ON THE PANEL UNDER THE AIR CONDITIONER CONTROLS THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS OFF. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND IT IS DUE TO A FAULTY SAFETY RESTRAINT SYSTEM SENSOR THE IN THE PASSENGER BOTTOM SEAT. INFINITI HAS HAD RECALLS AND ISSUES WITH THIS SRS SYSTEM IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WHILE THEY DID NOT RECALL THE 20109 INFINITI G37. MY G37 HAS APPROXIMATELY 50,500 MILES AND THEY WANT OVER $6,700. 00 TO REPLACE THE WHOLE DRIVER'S SEAT. THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT AND SOMEONE NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. TO TURN OFF THE BLINKING LIGHT REQUIRES THE AIRBAG SYSTEM TO BE DISABLED. THIS PRESENTS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE SINCE I AM NOW DRIVING A VEHICLE WITHOUT ANY AIRBAG PROTECTION.

Mileage: 50,500

TAKATA RECALL SAME PROBLEM AS OTHER HAVE STATED AIRBAG LIGHT, DUE TO PASSENGER SEAT SENSORS. ALSO MELTING DASHBOARD, THAT CAUSES GLARE TO VISIBILITY AND A SAFETY HAZARD IF THE AIRBAGS DID WORK. UNFORTUNATELY, THE AIRBAGS HAVE BEEN DISABLED DUE TO THE SENSOR. BOTH THE DASHBOARD AND AIRBAG SENSORS HAVE BEEN RECALLED IN OTHER NISSAN AND INFINITI MODELS BUT NOT THIS MODEL. PRETTY MUCH ALL THE SAME PARTS FOR THE THE DASH AND AIRBAGS BUT THIS MODEL HAS BEEN EXCLUDED.

AIRBAG LIGHT FLASHING. CAR HAS 75K MILES ON IT. TOOK IT TO INFINITI FOR REPAIR. THEY SAY THE PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR IS BAD AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THEY ARE SAYING IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THIS ISSUE.

MY COMPLAINT IS IN REGARDS TO THE UNAVAILABILITY OF AN AIRBAG REPLACEMENT PART. I ORDERED A NEW PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG SENSOR FOR OUR INFINITY G37 ON MAY 23. THE PART HAS BEEN ON BACKORDER SINCE THEN, WITH THE LATEST EXPECTED SHIP DATE(NOT ARRIVAL OR REPAIR DATE) BEING AUGUST 31, WHICH IS OVER THREE MONTHS! THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT IF ONE PART OF THE AIRBAG SYSTEM HAS A FAULT, THEN THE WHOLE AIRBAG SYSTEM IS DISABLED. SO, I AM DRIVING A CAR WITH NO AIRBAGS BECAUSE THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER DOESN'T HAVE THE PART CURRENTLY AVAILABLE, WITH NO OTHER SOLUTION GIVEN. THIS IS AFTER WAITING FOR A MONTH TO GET THE INFLATED REPLACEMENT COST LOWERED. FOR A PART THAT COMPROMISES THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND ANY PASSENGERS, I FIND THIS DELAY UNEXCEPTABLE. THE DEALERSHIP CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT, SO I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH INFINITY CONSUMER AFFAIRS. ALL THEY COULD DO WAS CONFIRM THE EXPECTED SHIP DATE, AND DOCUMENT MY COMPLAINT.

COLLISION CENTER STATES IT'S NOT DUE TO THE COLLISION AS THE FRONT OF THE CAR AIR BAG SENSORS ARE FUNCTIONAL AND NOT DAMAGED. THEY STATE THE PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR FOR THE AIRBAG HAS MALFUNCTIONED. SOUNDS LIKE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO SEVERAL OTHER G37'S. HOPEFULLY IS ENOUGH PEOPLE VOICE THEIR COMPLAINTS THEN A RECALL WILL BE INITIATED. I CAN'T BEAR THE THOUGHT OF A LOVED ONE GETTING HURT BECAUSE THE SENSOR IS NOT WORKING AND PEOPLE CAN'T AFFORD TO FIX IT.

TAKATA RECALL AIRBAG LIGHT BLINKING ON THE DASH. WENT TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT AND WAS TOLD IT WAS FAULTY PASSENGER AIRBAG MODULE. WAS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY ACCIDENT. I CAN SEE SOME AIRBAG RECALL FOR OTHER MODELS AND SEEMS LIKE MINE IS NOT INCLUDED. DEALER REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT

Mileage: 112,000

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT BLINKING. PER DEALER THIS IS CAUSED BY A FAULTY OCCUPANT SENSOR CAUSING THE AIRBAG TO NOT DEPLOY. DEALER STATES PART IS 4400.00 AND MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE PLUS THE COST TO INSTALL COULD BE NEAR 2000 TOTAL AROUND 6400.00. I WOULD THINK THAT THEIR AIRBAG SENSOR WOULD LAST LONGER THAN 9 YEARS AND THE BURDEN OF SUCH A HIGH COST SEEMS LIKE PRICE GOUGING NOT TO MENTION THEY ARE NOT SURE IF PART IS READILY AVAILABLE. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR SOMEONE WHO PAID GOOD MONEY FOR A VEHICLE THAT CAN NOT BE SAFELY DRIVEN.

TAKATA RECALL INDICATOR LIGHT ON DASHBOARD FOR AIRBAGS IS FLASHING CONSTANTLY FOR PAST 2 MONTHS. IRONIC THAT NO RECALL FOR THIS PARTICULAR MODEL ON A 2009 INFINITI G37 HAS NOT BEEN INCLUDED, ALTHOUGH OTHER MODELS ARE BEING RECALLED

AIR BAG PROBLEM INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING. DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED TO BE FAULTY AIR BAG AND WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THAT TO BEGIN WITH. VEHICLE MAINTAINED REGULARLY AND NO INDICATIONS AS TO WHY AIR BAG WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. OTHER INFINITI G37 CAR OWNERS ARE ALSO COMPLAINING ABOUT HAVING TO REPLACE/FIX FAULTY AIR BAGS, SO LOOKS LIKE A SYSTEMIC PROBLEM

THE FRONT SEAT OCCUPANCY-CLASSIFICATION SENSOR (OCS) IS NOT WORKING. THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR OVER A YEAR. NISSAN/INFINITI HAS RECALLED MILLIONS OF CARS IN 2013-1015 AND HAD A VOLUNTARY INSPECTION IN 2008 AND 2009 FOR THIS ISSUE. HOWEVER, MY CAR IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE OFFICIAL RECALL. UPON ONLINE RESEARCH, THERE ARE MANY OTHERS WITH MY SAME MAKE/MODEL/YEAR HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AND WE ARE UNABLE TO GET THIS RESOLVED. I HAVE CONTACTED INFINITI CUSTOMER SUPPORT AND THEY HAVE OFFERED UP TO $2000 FOR ME TO GET THIS FIXED. HOWEVER, THE TOTAL REPAIR FOR THIS IS $6900, SO I AM STILL PAYING $5,000 FOR A REPAIR ON A 2009 VEHICLE WITH A KNOWN ISSUE. DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW IN THE CARS, YOU CANNOT REPLACE OR REPAIR THE SENSOR, BUT YOU MUST REPLACE THE ENTIRE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THE COST OF THIS REPAIR IS OVER 50% OF THE TOTAL VALUE OF THE CAR. I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO USE MY CAR WITH OCCUPANTS IN THE FRONT SEAT FOR OVER A YEAR FOR FEAR OF A TRAGIC ISSUE IF WE HAD AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. IT IS OBVIOUS FROM INIFINITI'S WILLINGNESS TO CONTRIBUTE $2000 THAT THEY KNOW THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE CAR, BUT SINCE IT IS NOT PART OF A RECALL, THEY CLAIM THAT IS THE MAX THEY ARE ABLE TO PROVIDE. A FATHER SHOULD NOT HAVE TO MAKE THE DECISION ON WHETHER HIS CHILDREN ARE WORTH THE $5000 REPAIR WHEN THE ISSUE IS A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN PERVASIVE THROUGHOUT NISSAN/INFINITI FOR YEARS AND EVEN INVESTIGATED BY THE NHTSA ALREADY. I'M FEARFUL THAT SINCE MY VEHICLE TYPE IS NOT AS COMMON THAT THERE WERE NOT ENOUGH COMPLAINTS OF THAT MODEL TO CLASSIFY IT AS A RECALL. BUT, IT USES THE EXACT SAME PARTS AS THE OTHER NISSAN'S AND INFINITI'S, SO I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THIS IS NOT COVERED.

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IS BLINKING. DEALER SAID OCS (SEAT) SENSORS ARE MALFUNCTIONING. IT COST $6200 TO REPAIR. CONTACT INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS FOR HELP, BUT THEY REFUSE TO ASSIT. I BELIEVE 2009 G37 SHOULD BE ON THE RECALL LIST. THERE IS NO REASON THE OCS SENSOR SHOULD FAIL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 INFINITI G37. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR INTERMITTENTLY ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO INFINITI OF MEMPHIS IN BARTLETT, TN WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE AIR BAG SEAT SENSOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED DUE TO THE REPAIR FEES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THEY COULD NOT ASSIST. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 71,000.

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ARE BLINKING. DEALER SAYS SEAT SENSORS HAVE MALFUNCTIONED AND AIRBAGS WON'T DEPLOY CORRECTLY IN A WRECK. THEY WANT OVER 6500 DOLLARS TO REPAIR. THERE IS A NISSAN RECALL ON THESE PARTS IN OTHER MODELS AND THE FORUMS ARE FULL OF G37 OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM BUT SINE THIS MODEL IS NOT UNDER RECALL, WE HAVE TO PAY TO REPAIR. THIS MODEL NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO THE RECALL LIST. 71K MILES, 100 % GARAGE KEPT. NO REASON THIS SHOULD MALFUNCTION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 INFINITI G37 CONVERTIBLE. WHILE A PASSENGER WAS OCCUPYING THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, THE AIR BAG WARNING SENSOR TURNED OFF. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL DEALER (GASTONIA NISSAN LOCATED AT 2275 E FRANKLIN BLVD GASTONIA, NORTH CAROLINA, 28054) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ORC SENSOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO AN INFINITI DEALER. THE CONTACT REACHED OUT TO INFINITI OF CHARLOTTE WHO STATED THAT THEY WOULD CALL BACK. THE DEALER CALLED BACK AND LEFT THE CONTACT A VOICEMAIL STATING THAT THE FAILURE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND CONFIRMED THAT THERE WERE REPORTS OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS PROVIDED WITH CASE NUMBER: 26607927. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 80,298.

MY 2009 INFINITI G37 CONVERTIBLE HAS DEVELOPED EXTENSIVE CRACKS OF THE DASH COVERING THE FRONTAL AIR BAGS. MY SAFETY CONCERN IS THAT THE DASH PART WOULD NOT RESPOND AS INTENDED BY DESIGNERS DURING AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT, AND CAUSE INJURY TO THE VEHICLE OCCUPANTS IN SPITE OF THE EXPECTED AIRBAG SAFETY FUNCTION. FOR INSTANCE, INJURY COULD BE CAUSED BY DASH SPLINTERS, DETACHING EASILY IN CORRESPONDENCE OF EXISTING CRACKS, BEING THROWN AT LARGE VELOCITY TOWARDS VEHICLE OCCUPANTS IN THE EVENT OF AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. ONE CAN READILY IMAGINE HOW DANGEROUS THESE SPLINTERS WOULD BECOME, LIKE DARTS DELIVERED AT ULTRASONIC SPEEDS THEY COULD KILL OR PERMANENTLY INJURE PEOPLE. INFINITI ALREADY HAS A 10 YEAR UNLIMITED MILE WARRANTY FOR THE SEAT BELTS, ANOTHER SAFETY-RELATED FUNCTION OF A VEHICLE DESIGN. THEY SHOULD EXTEND SUCH A WARRANTY TO AIRBAGS, AS WELL AS ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT THAT MAY OPERATE TIGHTLY, OR BE ALTERED BY DESIGN, IN CONJUNCTION WITH AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. G37 DASH CRACKS ARE A WELL KNOWN DESIGN DEFECT OF G37 MODELS, A SIMPLE ONLINE SEARCH WILL SHOW THAT. THE LEAST INFINITI SHOULD DO IS TO MAKE SURE THAT SUCH A COSMETIC AND FUNCTIONAL DEFECT WOULD NOT ALSO CONSTITUTE A DANGEROUS SAFETY HAZARD.

THE FLASHING AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE DASH IS A CONSTANT EVENT. THIS AIRBAG LIGHT FLASHES INDICATING THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS OFF. THIS OCCURS ALL THE TIME, WHETHER THERE IS A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT OR NOT, AND REGARDLESS OF ANY PASSENGER WEIGHT OR HEIGHT. THE ONBOARD DIAGNOSTICS, BASED ON THE FLASHING PATTERN ON THE CONSOLE, INDICATE A PROBLEM WITH THE OCS (OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM). BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY, CREATING A SIGNIFICANT PASSENGER SAFETY HAZARD. THE LIGHT FLASHES ALL OF THE TIME THE VEHICLES HAS THE POWER ON, STOPPED OR MOVING. NISSAN HAS ISSUED A RECALL FOR OVER A MILLION VEHICLES GLOBALLY FOR SIMILAR ISSUES. HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE ISN'T INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL, EVEN THOUGH THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE RECALLS ON OLDER MODEL G35/G37 AND NEWER VEHICLES WITH THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. THEREFORE, MY 2009 INFINITI G37 SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL AS WELL. I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS, BECAUSE THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE!

Mileage: 86,000

THE PASSENGER SIDE SRS WARNING LIGHT IS ON AND INDICATES THE AIRBAG IS DISABLED. THERE IS ALSO EXTENSIVE CRACKING OF THE DASH THAT COULD POSSIBLY ALTER AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN EXTREMELY FREQUENT OCCURRENCE WITH THESE CARS. THE REPAIR COSTS ARE IN THE MULTIPLE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS, AND THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD. SOME MODELS HAVE HAD RECALLS FOR THESE ISSUES, BUT APPARENTLY INFINITY HAS NOT INCLUDED THE 2009 MODEL. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THE ISSUE FURTHER. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS AND WEBSITES FILLED WITH COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET DIRECTED AT THIS SPECIFIC COMPLAINT.

Mileage: 50,400

NISSAN/INFINITI SHOULD RECALL THE 2009 G37 AIRBAGS ALONG WITH THE OTHERS THEY HAVE RECALLED. THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH CRACKING MELTING DASHES ON MANY OF THE 2008/2009 DASHES THAT MAY AFFECT THE ABILITY OF THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY. MY DASH IS CRACKING AND MELTING (THIS ALSO AFFECTS VISIBILITY) AND INFINITI SAYS THIS IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE INDIVIDUAL. THEY KNOW THIS IS AN ISSUE AS THEY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY AND REPLACED THE DASHES OF THE INFINITI FX MODELS. THANK GOODNESS I HAVEN'T HAD A WRECK WHERE MY AIRBAG HAS HAD TO DEPLOY, BUT WHY WAIT UNTIL IT'S TOO LATE. THE 2009 INFINITI NEEDS TO BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL NOT ONLY FOR THE AIRBAG, BUT THE DASH NEEDS TO BE INCLUDED TO AS THE VISIBILITY IS AN ISSUE WITH THE GLARE FROM THE MELTING DASHES.

THE AIRBAG OF THE FRONT ROW PASSENGER SEAT TURNS OFF EVEN THERE IS AN ADULT PASSENGER SITTING ON IT. I'VE SEARCHED ONLINE AND DID SOME DIAGNOSTICS, AND BASED ON THE FLASHING PATTERN ON THE CONSOLE, IT SEEMS THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE SRS (SAFETY RESTRAIN SYSTEM) OCS (OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM), AS SUCH EVEN AN ADULT IS SITTING THERE, IN AN ACCIDENT THE AIRBAY MAY NOT BE DEPLOYED. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS THREAT TO THE SAFETY OF A PASSENGER. NOTE MY CAR HAS NEVER BEEN INVOLVED IN ANY ACCIDENT OR COLLISION. MORE GOOGLE SEARCH LED ME TO THIS LINK: HTTPS://WWW.NYTIMES.COM/2014/03/27/AUTOMOBILES/NISSAN-RECALLS-990000-CARS-AND-TRUCKS-FOR-AIR-BAG-MALFUNCTION.HTML?HPW&RREF=AUTOMOBILES&_R=1 THIS IS EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY CAR. WHILE NISSAN RECALLED THOSE CAR, I THINK THE REGULATORY SHOULD ENFORCE NISSAN TO EXPAND THE RECALL TO INCLUDE MY CAR (INFINITI G37, 2009) AND OTHERS. THERE ARE LOTS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ONLINE.

JUST LIKE THE 2008, MY 2009 G7 COUPE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE AND NO LONGER WORKS. I CALLED INFINITI BUT WAS TOLD THAT MY 2009 DID NOT QUALIFY. THEY WANT OVER $4000 TO REPLACE THE BOTTOM CUSHION (WITHOUT LABOR). $4000!!!! 2008 INFINITI G37 AIR BAGS RECALL 08V521000. OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (OCS) CONTROL UNITS. A VARISTOR IN THE OCS CONTROL UNIT LOCATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION MAY HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED OUT OF SPECIFICATION. UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, THIS COULD CAUSE AN INTERRUPTION OF SIGNAL BETWEEN THE OCS AND THE AIR BAG CONTROL UNIT (ACU).

THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR IS FAULTY. IT SAYS THAT THE AIRBAG IS OFF EVEN WHEN SOMEONE IS OCCUPYING THE PASSENGER SEAT. INFINITI QUOTED $7,000.00 TO REPAIR THE SENSOR. THE ENTIRE SEAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT.

THE AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE STOPPED FUNCTIONING AND TRIGGERED A FAULT MESSAGE WHICH THE AUTO DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED. NO INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED OTHER THAN MY AIRBAGS BEING NONFUNCTIONAL. IS THIS PART OF A LARGER AIRBAG PROBLEM, OR AN ISOLATED PROBLEM?

PASS AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AS IT IS MALFUNCTIONING. IT WILL NOT GO OFF. TOOK IT TO DEALER IN GREENVILLE SC THEY SAID THAT THE SENSOR IN THE SEAT IS LIKELY THE PROBLEM BUT DID NOT KNOW FOR SURE. COST WOULD BE BETWEEN $1500 AND $3000 TO REPLACE. I CALLED INFINITY SERVICE NATIONWIDE THEY SAID THERE IS NO RECALL. I SEE ON THIS REPORTING WEBSITE THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO OTHERS AND THAT IT ALSO WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE 2008 G35 AND THAT FOR THE 2008 IT IS A RECALL ISSUE. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THE 2009 G37 ALSO.

WHILE DRIVING WITH A PASSENGER, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR INDICATED THAT THE AIRBAG WAS OFF. I REPORTED IT TO INFINITI, AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON AT LEAST A HALF A DOZEN OR MORE OCCASIONS. IT OCCURS AT ALL SPEEDS. WHEN INFINITI CHECKED INTO THE ISSUE THEY ASKED ME HOW MUCH THE PASSENGER WEIGHED. THE PASSENGER HAS BEEN MYSELF AND MY BOYFRIEND ON VARIOUS OCCASIONS. WE EACH WEIGH ABOUT 170 POUNDS - NO EXCUSE FOR THE AIRBAG BEING OFF. NOW THAT THERE IS A RECALL, I AM WONDERING WHY MY INFINITI G35 IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. IT OBVIOUSLY HAS THE SAME ISSUE. SHOULD WE HAVE AN ACCIDENT, AND THIS ISSUE IS OCCURRING, WE FEAR THAT WE WILL NOT HAVE THE SAFETY THAT I INTENDED TO HAVE WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. *TR

HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE ISN'T INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL HOWEVER THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE REPORTS OF OLDER MODEL G35/G37 VEHICLES WITH THE EXACT SAME ISSUE.
