What 1994 Infiniti G20 owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
My daughter was involved in a car accident, she was on the freeway going 65 MPH when the speed limit was 75 MPH. She was driving a 1994 infiniti g20. The front and back of the car was completely ruined, yet the airbags never deployed. I trust the that the car ar made following all safety regulations, and that these are working. I do not know how these could have failed in the time thy are supposed to work.
We have been having problems with this transmission. It keeps poping out of 5th gear at highway speeds. This is not only nerve racking but dangerious. Now that I am trying to sell car and disclosing this no one wants it. But today was a call from a buyer who first asked, " does the car pop out in 5th gear" I said yes and he went into that this is an inherant problem in the design of nisson and infinity manual transmissions. Went on that this is happening wide spread relative to the number of their cars with mannual transmission and there should be a recall. He believes it is a desgine fault and not somethine due to normal wear, I agree.
Consumer heard noise coming from front end while driving. Vehicle was inspected by a dealership, and camshaft had to be replaced.
Vehicle was vibrating. Took vehicle to dealer, and they said all engine mounts and transmission mounts were torn up, dealer replacecd mounts.
Ongoing/intermittent problem with engine stalling under various conditions. Vehicle been in/out of dealer shop on six occasions, and problem still reoccurring. *ak
