Recently reported STRUCTURE problems on 2003 Infiniti G35

The car won't back up when it's on reverse, sometimes it won't move at all even when it's on drive.

My slip light and vct light has came on in my 2003 infiniti g35 and also the ebrake light and non of them will go offf. i recently hydro planed in the rain due not being able to turn my traction control on abs did nothing to stop my car from loosing traction this would never of happened if my car did not have these problems. further looking into it they have had made a tsb talking about how the abs and anti wheel lock may malfunction. i was in a 5 car pile up and almost died. if my traction control was able to be turned on witch it wouldn't let me i would not of hydro planed my whole back end just swung forward out of nowhere people though someone in my car pulled my ebrake the way the back end just swung forward. both the slip light and the vct light remained on along with my ebrake light. i drive my car like a baby and to barley push the gas should not result in my back end swinging forward resulting in completely wreching my car along with 4 other drivers. i feel infiniti is definitely reliable and should of recalled these parts due to putting people in danger instead of making it a tsb like its not a big deal. i am also not the only one iv found a few people that crashed there car due to rainy wether and the traction control not wanting to turn on. i was on the freeway doing about 60 to 65. if i new infiniti had so many problems i would not of purchased one 77 bulletins and after reading about all the problems the 2003 had and all the recalled parts i would not of purchased it and put my life at risk. i feel infiniti should be reliable it's commen sense to know that first hand not fixing those problems would lead to serious injuries and i'm not the only one. let me know what you think i will be emailing infiniti to. it may not be a recalled part but it' put me and everyone else on the freeway at risk and totaled my car. bellow is someone who also had the issue

Radio, cd, and a/c control console do not work. also the dashboard cracked. i called infiniti and i was told no recall had been issue. i'm extremely disappointed by this brand. i will take my business to honda who make better quality cars. *tr

The radio will turn off by itself and turn back on a few seconds later. all of the buttons in the center console become inoperable. the a/c controls also become inoperable and turns on by itself. it just doesn't turn on though, it turns on 90 degrees and starts blasting out. this is a safely issue because as a driver we never know when this air is just going to start blasting out at us like fire. if infiniti is smart enough to recall the sedan, they should do the same thing with the coupes. it is clearly a common problem among the '03-'04 models. if they want to keep their reputable name they will do what is right. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2003 infiniti g35. the contact stated that the welding joint was coming apart and damaging the base. the dealer stated that the entire base was unsafe and needed to be replaced. the vehicle is currently at the dealer being repaired at the owner's expense. there is a service bulletin for the vehicle, but the number was unavailable. the failure and current mileages were 46,000. the consumer stated in january 20009, the driver's seat began to rock back forth whenever he accelerated from a complete stop. at first, the rocking was isolated to when acceleration occurred from a complete stop. however, after two weeks the rocking would occur when traveling at highway speeds of about 70 mph. eventually, the condition of the driver's seat became so severe that the seat could be rocked back and forth without any person seated in it. the driver's seat assembly was replaced at the consumers expense. updated 02/09/11 the consumer stated while driving in inclement weather, the window defroster suddenly shut off on its own. at the same time, the air conditioner reset itself to 60 degrees and turned itself on at maximum force. the lights on the climate control panel and radio panel went dark. attempts were made to shut off the air conditioner and restart the window defrosted, but the climate control button were non-responsive. it was discovered that the only way to control the radio was through the control buttons located on the steering wheel. unlike the radio there was no secondary climate control button. within 30 seconds of the window defroster shutting off, all of the windows inside the vehicle became foggy. the vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was discovered the audio finisher circuit board was defective and that along with the radio would have to be replaced at a cost of $ 1,329.01. the dealer stated the radio and climate controls were both intertwined with the audio finisher circuit board. updated 09/10/12 the consumer stated the audio finisher board was replaced. updated 10/10/1

Dt*: the contact stated while having the tires replaced, the tire dealer noticed the chassis was fractured on the passenger side. the vehicle was driven to an independent body shop who confirmed the fracture. the dealer was alerted.

The rear upper quarter panels show signs of flexing, the body appears to have minor dent like ripples from where the rear window pillar meets the rear quarter panel. in the beginning, i thought it was just a minor issue, however as time progress, the body flexing is appearing more and more.

2003 infiniti g35 sedan with aero package. ravel pan is located under engine and secured to front bumper. the front bumper wore thin through normal driving conditions, splitting the bumper in two pieces along the length of the bumper releasing the gravel pan and creating an air scoop which flaps freely. i believe this is a design flaw. it is poor engineering that would allow the pan to be secured to the bumper cover when the bumper cover (plastic) can be easily worn away by always present concrete curbs in normal driving conditions thus releasing the pan. the edge along which the bumper cover split should be altered or reinforced so as not to impact curbs and wear away.*ak
