2004 Infiniti G35 airbags complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 22 of 22, newest first, as owners wrote them.
The third brake light on the rear deck has failed for no apparent reason. The car will not pass inspection. They want several hundred dollars to replace the entire unit. I have researched online and found this is a voluminous problem for this model year. It was recalled and addressed by infiniti for the 2003 model year g and it is still a problem for the 2004 year. This needs to be recalled and fixed accordingly at the manufacturer cost. All these owners are not having the same failing issues without cause. I own two 2004 infiniti g35 sedans. I used to love both of them. This one has problems with the brake light and now the airbag light is mysteriously blinking for no reason! The other one has had issues for years with being able to put gas in and I have had problems at the gas station trying to fill the car! Ridiculous! If infiniti doesn't do something ... I'll be switching makers. This one listed also has fuel presure regulator/damper failures ... While my other '04 g (with over 200,000 miles on it) has none. Explain that. I live the real ... Between two of the same model year. Fix the problems infiniti!
Tl* the contact owns a 2004 infiniti g35. The contact was driving 65 MPH when the air bag warning sensor illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where they confirmed that the airbag control module needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and the vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was 48,500 and the current mileage was 49,000. Updated 03/16/12
In june of 2009, the air bag warning light came on. It was served at the dealer (replaced driver side air bag module costing $735.50). In october 2010, I was notified of a recall concerning the air bags on my car. No warning lights were illuminated, but I took it to the dealer and they made repairs at no cost. I notified infinite consumer affairs about having repairs made to the driver's air bag prior to the recall and they reimbursed my initial cost ($735.50). The air bag warning light began flashing again april 6, 2011. When I called the dealer, they said it was safe to drive and just bring it in when I could. I took it to the dealer on april 11, 2011, and they diagnosed the problem being with the air bag module on the passenger's side at a cost of $487.82 to repair it. They said it had nothing to do with the recall of 2010 and would not offer any financial assistance at this time (yet I was reimbursed for the driver side air bag repair after the 2010 recall). They reset the light and it is no longer flashing. I told them I wanted the repair and did not think it was safe to drive a vehicle with faulty air bags. They said they are ordering the parts and will notify me when they come in. They also said the flashing light would eventually come back on. I have spoken with infinite consumer affairs and opened a case #xxxxxxx. After researching this issue, it appears to be a reoccurring problem with this make and model. I can't understand how these issues are not related. I am concerned about the safety of the car if it was involved in an accident before it is repaired. I wonder if infinite is being forthright about the air bag issues. I wonder how many others are affected.

On august 30, 2007, I was stopped at a red light in my 2004 infiniti g35x and was struck from behind while stationary with my foot on the brake. The vehicle that struck me was traveling at a high rate of speed estimated to be in excess of 40mph. The impact crushed my rear bumper and trunk and drove my vehicle into the rear of the SUV stopped in front of me, crushing my front end and inducing deployment of the passenger air bag although there was no one occupying the passenger seat. However, the driver's side air bag did not deploy in this collision, and while the seat belt restrained me, my arm hit the steering wheel, and I suffered musculoskeletal injuries in this accident. The car has been deemed a total loss. Both the insurance appraiser and I have questioned whether a defect prevented the driver's side airbag from deploying. I have reported the incident to infiniti.
Tl*the contact owns a 2004 infiniti g35 coupe. The contact stated that all of the vehicle's air bags deployed while it was parked at the dealer. Both the dealer and the manufacturer could not determine the cause of failure. The dealer stated that the only way for the failure to have occurred was if the air bag sensor was triggered during an accident. Infiniti sent a specialist to inspect the vehicle, but was also unable to determine the cause of failure. The contact stated that the dealer would call the contact back with further information in regards to the vehicle, but has not heard from them yet. He contacted a lawyer who stated that the vehicle does not fall under the state's lemon laws because the vehicle has not met the state's requirement of being serviced three times. The vehicle is still under warranty. The current mileage is 56,000 and failure mileage was 55,000.
I was traveling at 35 MPH and I was hit by another car in the driver side door and I slipped straight about 100 feet and hit a light pole none of my airbags deployed and my foot was on the brake the whole time and it seemed the bakes did not perform as expected.
While driving our 2004 infinity g35 on the fwy going about 40 MPH (the ground was wet) we felt the track control started to shift side to side, a truck cut in fron us us, which made my husband put on brakes, as he putted on brakes, the driver side front brake locked, which caused for the card to turn sideways and hit the center divider full speed. The brakes after they locked, never stopped the car, the only thing that stopped us was the center divider. The airbags never pop, as we hit the wall going 40 miles per hours. I have taken the car to the dealer recently and had the brakes changed (2 times in 11 months) and the last tme I tood the car I informed the dealer that the brakes felt hard, and they were hard to stop they stated that the brakes will get better with use, and that's how it usually felt after the brakes were changed. The car did not drive the same, the traction was not working, the brakes locked and to top it all the bags did not deployed after impact.
