Owners have filed 152 complaints
about the 2007 Infiniti G35 with NHTSA between 2007 and 2026.
The largest single group is the airbags.
Across this model's run it ranks 6 of 6 worst.
The letter says how bad. This says what kind — whether this year drew
an unusual number of complaints, unusually dangerous
ones, or failures that arrived unusually early.
The dashed ring is 50 — the national norm. Further out is worse.
Complaint volume — 25
Against the median year of the Infiniti G35. 50 means typical for this
model; 100 means roughly double.
Severity — 48
9.2% of these complaints
involved a crash, fire, injury or death, against a national rate of
9.7%.
Early failure — 45
26% of failures with a mileage on record happened under
36,000 miles, against a national rate of
29%.
NHTSA files every complaint against a named sub-assembly, not just a
system. This is the difference between knowing it was "the engine" and
knowing which part of it — the list to hand a mechanic.

When owners complained
A spike years after the car went on sale usually means a part wearing
out on schedule across the whole fleet — the kind of pattern no single
owner can see from inside their own car.

Recalls on the 2007 Infiniti G35
A complaint is one owner's allegation. A recall is the point at which
the manufacturer or a regulator agreed the defect is real and dangerous
enough to fix for free — however old the car is.

NISSAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2005 THROUGH 2007 INFINITI G35 SEDANS MANUFACTURED FROM MARCH 29, 2004 THROUGH AUGUST 25, 2006 AND INFINITI G35 COUPES MANUFACTURED FROM APRIL 1, 2004 THROUGH MAY 30, 2007. THE WIRE HARNESS CONNECTING THE BELT TENSION SENSOR (BTS) AND THE OCCUPANT DETECTION SENSOR (ODS) CONTROL UNIT UNDER THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT CAN EXPERIENCE RELATIVE MOVEMENT WHICH CAN CAUSE WEAR AND OXIDIZATION OF THE TERMINALS AND MAY CAUSE INTERRUPTION OF THE SIGNAL.
Risk: IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, THE AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY, INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY.

CERTAIN VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE "VERTICAL GRADIENT" AND "HEADLAMP PHOTOMETRIC VALUES" REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 108, 'LAMPS, REFLECTIVE DEVICES, AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT.'
Risk: THIS STANDARD IS TO REDUCE CRASHES, INJURIES AND DEATHS BY PROVIDING ADEQUATE ILLUMINATION OF THE ROADWAY, AND BY ENHANCING THE CONSPICUITY OF MOTOR VEHICLES ON THE PUBLIC ROADS SO THAT THEIR PRESENCE IS PERCEIVED AND THEIR SIGNALS UNDERSTOOD, BOTH IN DAYLIGHT AND IN DARKNESS OR OTHER CONDITIONS OF REDUCED VISIBILITY.

TWO DIFFERENT INCIDENTS - I WAS IN TWO MINOR LOW SPEED INCIDENTS. I BELIEVE AT THE TIME OF THE SECOND THE BRAKE ROD GOT BENT (WHICH IS CURRENTLY SPECULATION AND THE INSURANCE IS INVESTIGATING) FROM THE FIRST ACCIDENT. AFTER THE FIRST MY ACCELERATOR WOULD NOT FUNCTION ON SOME LEFT HAND TURNS. I GOT IN THE SECOND ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THE INABILITY TO "BRAKE HARDER" AND I WAS AMAZED I COULDN'T STOP IN THE DISTANCE PROVIDED, AND THIS BRAKING SCENARIO AND OUTCOME IS REPEATABLE. IF I BRAKE HARD -- HARDER -- FULL STOP. BY THE TIME I DO A FULL STOP MY BRAKING POWER IS DIMINISHED AND IN MY ACCIDENT I WAS UNABLE TO STOP IN A "NORMAL" DISTANCE. FURTHERMORE, AFTER THIS SECOND ACCIDENT AT < 20 MPH. I HAVE INTERMITTENT ACCELERATOR FAILURE IN ALL DRIVING SCENARIOS. I COULD BE DRIVING AND IT JUST CUTS OUT. NO ERROR LIGHTS IN EITHER OF THESE SCENARIOS. NO CHECK ENGINE, NO SLIP, NO ABS, WARNINGS. I PREVIOUSLY TRIED TO BRING IT UP TO CORPORATE NISSAN AND THEY SAID I HAD TO CONTACT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. BOTH DEALERSHIPS I TRIED PAWNED ME OFF TO PARTS DEPARTMENT, WHICH THE GUY WAS CONFUSED AS TO WHY I AM ASKING HIM ABOUT POTENTIAL SHORT FALLS. THEY WANTED OVER $1,000 EACH ISSUE TO INVESTIGATE. MEANWHILE AS I NOW FIND MY CAR UNSAFE TO DRIVE FOR LACK OF ACCELERATING AND BRAKING ABILITIES, AND THE INSURANCE COMPANY IS INVESTIGATING. TWO ACCIDENTS IN 6 MONTHS, AND AT LEAST THE LATTER I THINK COULD BE DUE TO A POTENTIAL FAULTY PART - AS EVERY MECHANIC I HAVE REACHED OUT TO SAID IF IT IS THE BRAKE ROD, AND IN THE ACCIDENTS I HAD, IT SHOULD NOT HAVE BENT (IF THAT ENDS UP BEING THE ROOT CAUSE).

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I own 3 Infiniti G35's (2006, 2006, & 2007) and all 3 had this same exact problem! The fuel gauge reads a level higher than the vehicle actually has causing the cars check engine light to come on and the car runs out of gas and stalls with no notice. One time it almost caused a crash! I have replaced 2 Clusters and am now being told 3rd Infiniti cluster needs to be replaced. Obviously this is a major issue and very costly to repair amongst 06 & 07 Infiniti G35's. Please look into this!!

My gas gauge doesn’t read correctly, I’ve replaced the required parts that should have fixed the problem but it still doesn’t read right, after some research I found it was a cluster problem and so I don’t ever know how much gas I have, I ran out of gas on the road and was stranded for 2 hours waiting for help this is not safe and it is very terrifying to not know where the gas level is at. The vehicle also doesn’t take gas correctly. Every pump clicks the fuel shut off every 2 seconds. I’m sure it’s related to my gas gauge

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 never had them mention anything to me about these issues.

11/28/2019: THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM/CENTER STACK RESET AND IMMEDIATELY AFTER ALL THE DASH LIGHTS LIT UP AND THE VEHICLE WENT INTO LIMP MODE. THE VEHICLE WAS BLOCKS AWAY FROM HOME AND WE WERE ABLE TO DRIVE IT BACK WITHOUT ISSUE. TOOK IT TO AN INFINITI DEALER WHO SAID IT WAS TRANSMISSION RELATED. REPAIRS WERE DECLINED AS THIS DID NOT SOUND ACCURATE AND I WANTED A SECOND OPINION. TRANSMISSION SHOP LOOKED IT OVER AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION. AN INDEPENDENT SHOP ALSO LOOKED IT OVER AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. 7/1/2020: THE CENTER STACK TURNED OFF AND BACK ON AND CAR ENGINE DIED. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER. MOST WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON AND THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS ON FULL BLAST AND COULDN'T TURN IT OFF. TRIED TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND IT WOULDN'T TURN OFF. THE ENGINE KEPT RUNNING. DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME AND THE SPEEDOMETER WAS INOP AND ALL LIGHTS WERE ON BUT CAR SEEMED TO DRIVE OK AT THAT MOMENT. ONCE HOME THE CAR WOULDN'T TURN OFF. YOU'D PRESS THE BUTTON AND THE DASH LIGHTS WOULD TURN OFF BUT THE ENGINE WOULD KEEP RUNNING. EVENTUALLY GOT IT TURNED OFF. THEN COULDN'T START IT BACK UP. EVENTUALLY GOT IT STARTED AND ONLY HAD FIRST GEAR. BROUGHT IT BACK HOME, FOUGHT WITH TURNING IT OFF AND THEN BACK ON. FINALLY GOT IT RUNNING AND IT DROVE FINE. LET THE VEHICLE SIT SEVERAL DAYS AND DROVE IT TO AN INDEPENDENT SHOP ON 7/8/2020. ON THE WAY TO THE SHOP IT DROVE FINE BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. I FEEL THERE IS SOME TYPE OF ELECTRICAL ISSUE GOING ON WITH THE VEHICLE. I CAN REPORT BACK ONCE THE SHOP HAS MORE TIME TO TRY AND DIAGNOSE A PROBLEM, BUT A CAR RANDOMLY TURNING OFF IS A MAJOR CAUSE OF CONCERN.

OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM MALFUNCTION. I HAVE A 2007 INFINITI G35 WITH 144000 MILES, NEVER HAD ANY ACCIDENT BEFORE. RECENTLY THE AIR BAG LIGHT STARTED FLASHING FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I TOOK IT TO THE INFINITI DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT THAT WAS BAD, AND WOULD COST SEVERAL THOUSANDS DOLLAR TO FIX. AFTER DOING RESEARCH IT SUGGESTS THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM THAT MANY INFINITI/NISSAN OWNERS ARE CURRENTLY HAVE. NISSAN HAS RECALL FOR THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM FOR VERY SELECTED VEHICLE BUT I THINK A WIDER RANGE OF RECALL SHOULD BE DONE BY INFINITI/NISSAN.
