Most Recent Complaints
The fuel gauge in my Infiniti G35x is malfunctioning and does not show the correct fuel levels. As a result, my vehicle has unexpectedly run out of fuel multiple times, causing it to stop on the side of the road. This poses a significant safety risk as it can lead to sudden and dangerous situations for both myself and other drivers. Stopping on the side of the road in such conditions can also result in potential traffic violations. This issue needs to be addressed to ensure safer driving.
Fuel gauge in instrument cluster malfunctioned, inaccurately reading more than half full. This caused me to run out of gas on a public road. In addition to the risk of becoming a stationary road hazard, I lost power brakes and steering when the gas ran out which caused me to almost hit the car in front of me. The problem has not been reproduced by a dealship or service center, however I had the sending units replaced which a mechanic said would fix the issue and it didn't. The gauge is still inaccurate. I have not had the cluster inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representative. I have researched the issue myself and learned that the cluster is commonly defective, I also have an intermittent left turn signal. There was a check engine light (P0462) intermittently on, which was temporarily fixed by replacing the sending units but has since come back. I don't know when they first appeared.
The airbag light keeps blinking. I have had no incidents. I saw that there was an issue with this year model. i would like it covered with the repair.
WHILE I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70MPH, THE GLASS FROM MY SUNROOF FLEW OFF OF MY VEHICLE ONTO ON COMING TRAFFIC. THERE IS NO ACTIVE RECALL FOR THIS AND IT SEEMS THAT MAY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE.
