Lock actuators on passenger side have NEVER worked, fuel pump stops working when filling up tank even though not nearly full (have to repush the pump in several times - sometimes it doesn’t let me fill up tank totally because it thinks it’s full), right headlights fog up and can't be polished, light bulbs went out. Cruise control NEVER worked, a/c stopped working at 77,000 miles, window motor on both doors broke before 75,000 miles

Gas tank never reaches full. While pumping gas gas station pump stops periodically even though tank is not full. Gas gauge reads incorrectly. Have to keep stopping and adding gas to make sure tank is full.

When the vdc off and slip light are on along with the service engine soon light the car loses power when accelerating under 40 MPH and will shut off while driving on street or highway. Car also stalls for a period of time when cutting car on. This is really dangerous for my family and other families. Please find out something soon also seen a recall for same problems with 2003 infiniti g35. So why isn't this covered for the 2004?!

As previously mentioned and depicted copious times on multiple sites, my 2004 g35 (built in 2003 and purchased 11/03 w/ only 43,544 miles) stalls w/o warning. Engine and vdc lights show only after engine stalls. If idle rpms are increased to 1,000, to prevent stalling, the engine idle lopes noticeably. This safety issue has occurred both while stopped (stop lights/signs) and while driving 4 out of the last 4 times driven. Research indicates the fix consists of camshaft position sensor and crankshaft angle sensors. It is patently obvious that regardless of mileage (I.e. 100k+ or in my case 43k miles) the engine will stall, jeopardizing the safety of the driver and passenger(s) resulting from being hit by other vehicles, thereby endangering the occupants of any/all vehicles. This issue should not be the causal factor for individuals being hurt/maimed/killed due to an obvious engineering/manufacturing error by nissan/infiniti, nor should an owner be held responsible for a blatantly obvious manufacturer's defect's, by being required to pay for a system beyond their control and the sole responsibility of the actual manufacturer. Please research the warranty and repair orders, as well as the myriad of the exact same complaints by consumers, reflected on on-line sites and forums. This should not be required to rise to the level of the air bags, exploding gas tanks, etc...resulting in significant injury or death. Respectfully.

Tl* the contact owns a 2004 infiniti g35. The contact stated that the driver and passenger side reflector lamps failed to illuminate and were replaced on two separate occasions. In addition, when refueling the vehicle, fuel would spray out of the fuel filler neck even though the fuel tank was not filled to the full capacity. The VIN was not included in the federal safety agency campaign numbers: 06e060000 (exterior lighting) and 05v555000 (fuel system, gasoline). The vehicle was not repaired. The contact also mentioned that after starting the vehicle the air bag warning indicator illuminated intermittently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but the mechanic could not locate the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 173,000.

I exited the beltway (i495) and the engine quit with no warning. I was able to restart the car and proceed. . A few days later I was driving and the engine quit again and the service engine light came on. I checked the manual and it said I could continue to drive the car. I took the car to a repair shop and they checked he computer codes and said it was a cam sensor, a crank position sensor or a variable timing control sensor or combination or all three. They thought that this was a recall item. I searched and discovered that infiniti recall 3021 was issued as well as recall 01v357. The dealer said that my car was not covered under the recall. The car poses a safety issue to me and other drivers. Why isn't this covered by recall?

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!
