What 2003 Infiniti G35 owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
My car seat moved all the forward while driving to work in denver metro'bench and back support both pushed me a few inches from the steering wheel. I had to move my leg with my hand to reach the brake pedal. One week later, my car horn began beeping and would not stop while driving. My vdc and brake lights now stay on constantly because the anti skid does not work'I almost wrecked on a snowy highway. The front tires wear exponentially faster than the back tires. I had blowouts two separate times on the interstate. The front windows are now glued shut because they roll down on their own. The airbag light stays on now too. I realize it's an old car; I bought it for $8,000 4 years ago when it had ~95,000 miles. Now it has ~140,000. The level of quick decline is truly frightening though. I don't drive my 2003 infinit g35 any more and am apprehensive to sell it to anyone else. The car I loved is now like driving a horror movie.
The driver side seat rocks back and forth. Dealer says I must pay to have replaced for ~$1200. I noticed via internet search this problem has been assigned the federal safety agency item number - 10016401. Just wanted to add my car to the list.
Tl* the contact owns a 2003 infinity g35 coupe. The contact stated that when accelerating over 5 MPH, the front driver's seat would sway back and forth. The contact was informed of a technical service bulletin under the federal safety agency item number: 10016401 (seats). The dealer and manufacturer were both notified and advised the contact that because the vehicle was no longer under warranty, the vehicle would not be repaired. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 87,000 and the current mileage was 90,000.
1) failure of the A/C and audio controller - audio circuit board issue 2) driver power seat doesn't work - issue with track motors and trails 3) cd changer stopped working with cd stuck in the player.

I have 2003 infiniti g35 sedan. Driver's seat rocked back-and-forth. Took it to infiniti dealer who stated that the driver's seat frame assembly had separated due to faulty weld joints! Dealer stated that the driver's seat frame assembly seat was not covered by any warranty or recall. Dealer also stated that if I didn't pay the $1,100.00 to have the driver's seat frame assembly replaced and I was in any kind of car accident, the faulty driver's seat frame assembly would cause the seat to become completely detached from the car and cause the seat to be thrown about inside the car. I therefore paid to have the driver's seat frame assembly replaced. However, a couple of days ago I noticed that the rocking is starting again! Clearly there is something wrong with the driver's seat frame assemblies that are coming directly from nissan, which owns infiniti! In fact, according to the federal safety agency website, other nissan cars from 2003, like the 350z are having problems with the seats! Clearly this is worthy of some time of investigation or recall since the federal safety agency has on file a lot of complaints and service bulletins on this same issue from nissan cars!

The vehicle has not been driven in 6-7 months due to the faulty seat. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for repairs, but the warranty was expired.

Tl*the contact owns a 2003 infiniti g35. The contact stated that the welding joint was coming apart and damaging the base. The dealer stated that the entire base was unsafe and needed to be replaced. The vehicle is currently at the dealer being repaired at the owner's expense. There is a service bulletin for the vehicle, but the number was unavailable. The failure and current mileages were 46,000. The consumer stated in january 20009, the driver's seat began to rock back forth whenever he accelerated from a complete stop. At first, the rocking was isolated to when acceleration occurred from a complete stop. However, after two weeks the rocking would occur when traveling at highway speeds of about 70 MPH. Eventually, the condition of the driver's seat became so severe that the seat could be rocked back and forth without any person seated in it. The driver's seat assembly was replaced at the consumers expense. Updated 02/09/11 the consumer stated while driving in inclement weather, the window defroster suddenly shut off on its own. At the same time, the air conditioner reset itself to 60 degrees and turned itself on at maximum force. The lights on the climate control panel and radio panel went dark. Attempts were made to shut off the air conditioner and restart the window defrosted, but the climate control button were non-responsive. It was discovered that the only way to control the radio was through the control buttons located on the steering wheel. Unlike the radio there was no secondary climate control button. Within 30 seconds of the window defroster shutting off, all of the windows inside the vehicle became foggy. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was discovered the audio finisher circuit board was defective and that along with the radio would have to be replaced at a cost of $ 1,329.01. The dealer stated the radio and climate controls were both intertwined with the audio finisher circuit board. Updated 09/10/12 the consumer stated the audio finisher board was replaced. Updated 10/10/1
The heating/defrost/AC unit stops working while driving causing window to fog up during cold weather - back seats are ripping, like brittle. Brake light in back window goes off and on, works when it wants to.
