2007 INFINITI G35 Engine Problems

The contact owns a 2007 Infiniti G35. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, a ticking noise was present coming from the engine compartment. While her son was driving approximately 35 MPH, the vehicle suddenly stalled. The vehicle was towed to the dealer who diagnosed that the engine was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 180,000.

I was at stop light and G35 jolted. At the next light the car completely turned off and all the power of the car went dead. Nothing was lit at all. Had a power boost with jumper cables and the car started right up. Luckily I was a few blocks away from the house, but it was scary since my kids were in the car and the car turned off crossing the intersection. The car turns on, but I am not trusting in driving it anywhere. There is not check engine light on or warning. I was told battery was fine a C1109 code came up, stating low voltage. Possible issues with the ABS or crank position sensor, which under o1v357 recall, these cars were impacted, but this Infiniti was not included, and it should have been. I exclusively took auto to Infiniti for maintenance until around 2018 and I...

WHILE DRIVING, MY INFINITI G-35 LOOSES ENGINE POWER AND THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT NOTICE ALONG WITH SUDDEN LACK OF POWER STEERING. MY SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE BACK A SHORT TIME LATER. SEVERAL CARS HAD TO SWERVE FROM HITTING ME. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO GET A DIAGNOSTICS AND IT'S SAYING CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR/ CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR. THE ENGINE SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING START HAPPENING OTHER TIMES SAME WAY. THIS HAPPENED ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND MAIN ROADS. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT. MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ALSO FLASHING RED AND HIGHLIGHTED PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT OFF IN YELLOW NEAR CLOCK. ENGINE SHUTTING OFF DUE TO CRANKSHAFT SENSOR WITH AIRBAG MALFUNCTION. ENGINE ALSO SHUTS OFF AT STOP LIGHTS.

DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN FAST LANE DURING EVENING COMMUTE, MY INFINITY MALFUNCTIONED - RANDOM ENGINE SHUTOFF. THIS MALFUNCTION DISABLED ALL FEATURES OF VEHICLE - LIGHTS, STEERING, BRAKES, AIRBAGS, AND MORE. (THE PREVIOUS SECTION ONLY LET ME SELECT THREE AFFECTED PARTS) LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO COAST VEHICLE TO A STOP ON THE INSIDE OF THE HIGHWAY WITHOUT CAUSING AN ACCIDENT, BEING INJURED MYSELF OR WORSE. HAD TO HAVE VEHICLE TOWED FROM SCENE. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT A VARIETY OF INFINITY VEHICLES FROM 2005 TO THE CURRENT YEAR HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS SAME MALFUNCTION ISSUE AND THERE SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN A RECALL ISSUED FOR LATER YEARS. I CONTACTED INFINITY REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE NOT COVERED. REQUEST THAT NHTSA INVESTIGATE CAUSE OF RANDOM SHUTOFF (SOME SORT OF FUEL SENSOR) AND ISSUE A RECALL FOR ALL INFINITY YEARS/MODELS TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE. INFINITY SUGGESTS I BRING VEHICLE IN...

WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 INFINITI G35 TUESDAY JUNE 25, 2019 THE VEHICLE CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING TO WORK AND HOME. HAVE HAD NO PRIOR PROBLEMS AND IT HAD LOW MILES AT PURCHASE.THERE IS A LOSS OF ACCELERATION POWER AND THE VEHICLE HESITATES, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS, AND VEHICLE RUNS WITH A HIGH IDLE, AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON. THIS HAPPENED ON THE EXPRESSWAY AS I WAS DRIVING WHICH IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.THE VEHICLE HAS A DEFECTIVE CAMSHAFT SENSOR/EVT CONTROL SENSOR/ EVT CONTROL MAGNET RETARDER. I HAVE PHOTOS, STILL SHOTS PICS, VIDEOS OF MYSELF DRIVING AND THE ENGINE CUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT NOTICE DUE TO THE DEFECTIVE CAM SHAFT SENSOR. I HAVE PICS OF ME ON THE HIGHWAY DUE TO ENGINE SHUT OFF. I HAVE PHOTOS OF THE TRUCK THAT ALMOST SLAMMED INTO MY CAR ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE VIDEOS OF THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CURRENTLY ON. I...

VISITED INFINITY DEALERSHIP IN REGARDS TO SPORADIC ENGINE STALLING WHILE IN 1ST GEAR ONLY TO LATER FIND THAT A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED ON SAME YEAR AND MODEL OF MY VEHICLE. VEHICLE STALLED ON HIGHWAY NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE IN 1ST GEAR. NO ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON ELUDING TO THE FACT THAT THEIR IS AN ISSUE. ISSUES HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR MONTHS AND DEALERSHIP IS AWARE. SUSPICIOUSLY, MY VEHICLE WAS NOT NAMED BUT A VERY BASIC SEARCH ONLINE DOES UNCOVER THAT NUMEROUS CONSUMERS HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS PUTTING CONSUMERS IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION WHICH COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. SAME SCENARIO WITH MY PASSENGER SEAT WORKING SPORADICALLY.

THERE IS HESITATION, ALMOST STALLING, WHEN I AM EITHER GOING SLOW, WHEN I AM TAKING OFF FROM A STOPPED POSITION, OR WHEN I AM GOING UP A HILL BEHIND VEHICLES AT A LIGHT, SO I AM STARTING AND STOPPING BECAUE WE ARE NOT GETTING THROUGH THE LIGHT. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AND NOT JUST A BULLETIN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. IF I TRY TO PULL OUT AND MY CAR HESITATES, STOPS, OR STALLS IT CAN PUT ME AND OTHER DRIVERS IN DANGER. I CANNOT UNDERSTAND HOW THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN MADE A RECALL. I'VE HAD IT FIXED ONCE ALREADY AND THE ISSUE IS HAPPENING AGAIN. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE BULLETIN # ITB11-018. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR HAVING A SAFE VEHICLE TO DRIVE BECAUSE THEY MADE IT WRONG. HESITATION IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE THE CAR TO...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 INFINITI G35. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO RECOMMENDED REPROGRAMMING THE ECM AND THE TCM SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN: 03V455000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

CAR WOULD DIE AFTER BEING STARTED. LAG TIME IN ACCELERATION. UPON INSPECTION WE WERE TOLD THE REAR TIMING COVER HAS A SEAL INSIDE OF IT THAT IS BROKEN. THE MECHANICS SHOWED US 4 VEHICLES IN THEIR SHOP WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THE SEAL INSIDE THIS COVER IS SO HARD TO REACH THE ENTIRE ENGINE MUST BE DROPPED IN ORDER TO FIX THIS. IT IS A $3K+ JOB. THE MECHANICS ADVISED THAT UNTIL NISSAN FIXES THE QUALITY OF THIS SEAL IT WILL BLOW AGAIN IN 80K. THE SEAL IS CREATING OIL LEAKS INTO MY ENGINE AND WILL EVENTUALLY LOCK UP THE TRANSMISSION. WE WERE ADVISE THERE MAY BE A SERVICE BULLETIN ON THIS ISSUE, AND A 100,000K EXTENSION ON THE POWERTRAIN IS IN THE WORKS. WE CANNOT CONFIRM THIS YET, AS WE ARE WAITING FOR INFINITI TO RESPOND. WE HAVE ALWAYS KEPT UP WITH THE SUGGESTED MAINTENANCE ON THIS VEHICLE WITH...
