2003 INFINITI G35 Engine And Engine Coolingcooling System Problems

VEHICLE WOULD RANDOMLY STALL OUT AT 55 MPH+ AND CONTROL OF POWER STEERING IS LOST (BATTERY LIGHT & VDC LIGHT WOULD COME ON DASH), NO CONTROL OF CAR. MANY COMPLAINTS ON SAME ISSUE. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON THE ROAD AND MY CAR LOST ALL POWER. MY CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR HAD TO BE REPLACED, BUT THE DEALER SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL CAMPAIGN 03V45500 WHICH WAS FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM. *TR

THERE IS AN APPARENT KNOWN DEFECT IN THE 2003 INFINITI G35 MODELS. THE RADIO AND CLIMATE CONTROL WILL APPARENTLY LOSE ALL INDICATORS, AS IF THERE IS NO POWER, BUT WILL CONTINUE TO FUNCTION, STAYING FROZEN ON AT THEIR LAST SETTINGS. THE RADIO VOLUME OR CHANNELS CANNOT BE CHANGED AND THE AIR CONDITIONING/HEATER,ETC. ARE STUCK ON THEIR LAST SETTINGS AND CANNOT BE CHANGED WITHOUT TURNING THE CAR OFF. THIS IS CAUSED BY A DEFECTIVE CONTROL BOARD BEHIND THE DASH. INFINITI/NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, AND HAS ISSUED A VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN (# ITB03-007B) TO REPAIR THE 26,300 VEHICLES LISTED BY VIN # ON THE SERVICE BULLETIN. THIS IS A HAZARD , AS IN THE WINTER, THE FRONT OR REAR DEFROSTERS CANNOT BE TURNED ON, OR THE AIR CONDITIONING TURNED OFF, CAUSING A HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITION. INFINITI SAYS MY 2003 VIN # DOES NOT FALL INTO THE BULLETIN PARAMETERS, (VIN #...

OWNED A 2003 INFINITI I35. IT BEGAN TO STALL WHILE RUNNING, AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS, STREET SPEEDS, AT STOP LIGHTS. MECHANIC THOUGHT IT WAS THE BATTERY BUT PROBLEMS CONTINUED. WE SOLD VEHICLE DUE TO ISSUES AND NEEDING RELIABLE VEHICLE. TWO MONTHS AFTER SELLING IT, OUR OTHER 2003 INFINITI, A G35 COUPE, BEGAN HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. TOOK TO INFINITI DEALER AND THEY STATED THE ERROR WAS P0340 AND CAM SHAFT SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, $600. I DID RESEARCH AND FOUND THERE WAS A RECALL BUT WAS TOLD BY DEALER MY VIN DID NOT FIT WITHIN RECALL NUMBERS. IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF RESEARCH ON WEB, I FOUND PROBABLY 10-15 OTHER OWNERS OF G35 COUPES THAT HAVE THIS ISSUE AND INFINITI IS SAYING, SORRY, BUT YOUR VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL. I CALLED INFIINITI, THEY STATED THAT EXACTLY AND THERE WAS NO REMEDY OTHER THAN PAYING FOR REPAIR OURSELVES. IT...

1) CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THERE IS A TECHNICAL BULLETIN ON HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM BUT IT WASN'T A RECALL AND WILL COST APPROX. $800 DUE TO A MALFUNCTIONING OF A CIRCUIT BOARD. 2) THE CLIMATE CONTROL AND RADIO ARE INOPERABLE ABOUT EVERY OTHER TIME WE START THE CAR. I READ CURRENT RECALLS FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM FOR THE SEDAN AND NOT THE COUPE. I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT. I KNOW THERE ARE OTHER'S WITH THE SAME ISSUE. HOPE THIS BECOME A RECALL SOON. *TR
