NHTSA Complaint #10197470 — 2006 INFINITI G35

ENGINE NEW USED 1 QT OF OIL EVERY 1200 MILES. OIL CONSUMPTION SOMEWHAT BETTER WITH MORE MILES, BUT STILL 1 QT/2500 MILE PRESENTLY WITH 21,000 MILES ON ENGINE. DEALER SAID IT WAS MY DRIVING HABITS AND NISSAN/INFINITI WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT UNLESS IT CONSUMES MORE THAN 1QT/1000 MILE. I FOLLOWED FACTORY ENGINE BREAK-IN GUIDELINES, I DO NOT RACE MY VEHICLE AND DEALER HAS DONE ALL FACTORY SCHEDULED OIL SERVICES. NISSAN/INFINITI APPARENTLY IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND APPARENTLY HAVE A REVISED ENGINE FOR WARRANTY REPLACEMENT, BUT MY UNDERSTANDING, ONLY IF YOU CONSUME WORSE THAN 1QT/1000 MILES. MY PRESENT OIL CONSUMPTION OF 1QT/2500MILES IN MY OPINION, IS UNACCEPTABLE IN TODAY'S STANDARDS AND FEEL I SHOULD BE ENTITLED TO THIS NEW REVISED ENGINE FOR WARRANTY REPLACEMENT AS WELL. *JB
