2006 INFINITI G35 Electrical System Problems

The fuel gauge in my Infiniti G35x is malfunctioning and does not show the correct fuel levels.

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...
