NHTSA Complaint #10882718 — 2003 INFINITI G35

WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF ON 2 OCCASIONS. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, IT LOST POWER, AND THEN RECOVERED, BUT TWICE, IT LITERALLY TURNED COMPLETELY OFF. THE "SLIP", "VDC OFF", AND "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHTS ALL APPEARED. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL INFINITI DEALER WHO SAID IT WAS SUBJECT TO A RECALL FOR EARLIER-PRODUCED MODELS, AND SUBJECT TO A BULLETIN WHICH DESCRIBED EXACTLY WHAT HAD HAPPENED. THE CRANK POSITION SENSOR AND BANK 1 AND 2 OF THE CAM POSITION SENSORS HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $563.03, AND INFINITI SAYS THAT WITHOUT NHTSA TELLING THEM TO PAY FOR IT, THEY REFUSE. THIS CAR IS A 2003, HOWEVER, IT IS IN MINT CONDITION WITH LESS THAN 55,000 ORIGINAL MILES ON IT--ALWAYS DEALER MAINTAINED.
