Water driving off of the roof of the car got plugged. Also, water running into the engine has caused rust holes. Water has gotten into the car through the sunroof. LOTS of complaints regarding this issue. Needs recalled.

TWO COMPLAINTS. 1. THE DASHBOARD IN MY 2008 G35 IS MELTING. IT HAS A TACKY FEEL AND IS EASILY DAMAGED WHEN TOUCHED. MANY CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD. AT TIMES THE SHINY APPEARANCE OF THE DASHBOARD REFLECTS LIGHT ON THE WINDSHIELD AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO DRIVE. 2. THE SUNROOF HAS DRAIN CHANNELS FOR DRAINING OFF WATER THAT ACCUMULATES AROUND THE SUNROOF. THE DRAIN CHANNELS ARE PLASTIC PIPES THAT RUN THROUGH THE A-PILLAR AND SPILL ONTO THE ROADWAY UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. THE DRAIN CHANNELS ARE BREAKING APART AT APPROXIMATELY DASHBOARD HEIGHT AND WATER IS INJECTED BEHIND THE DASHBOARD AND IS SHORTING OUT THE VEHICLE CONTROLLERS. WHILE DRIVING IN A STORM ON A CITY STREET MY INSTRUMENT CONTROL PANEL STARTING BLINKING AND EVENTUALLY FAILED (E.G. MY WHOLE INSTRUMENT PANEL WENT BLANK). WATER DESTROYED MY BCU AND THE CAR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM HAS NEVER BEEN THE SAME. REPLACED THE BCU AND DRAIN CHANNELS. HOWEVER, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM HAS NEVER BEEN THE SAME. STILL LOSE CERTAIN INSTRUMENTS, E.G. WATER TEMPERATURE GAUGE, AND INTERMITTENT SOUNDS OF RELAYS TRYING TO RECOVER LOST SYSTEMS. CONSTANTLY GETTING FALSE INDICATORS OF FAILURES ON THE DASH. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN FRIGHTENING TO HAVE LOST MY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT.

WHEN I RECENTLY PURCHASED A SET OF NEW TIRES FROM A LOCAL TIRE DEALER, THE MECHANIC WARNED ME THAT NISSAN / INFINITI HAVE A HISTORY OF DEFECTIVE TIRE PRESSURE SENSORS AND INDICATED THAT THE TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR WAS INDEED DEFECTIVE. I LOOKED ON-LINE AND SAW THAT VEHICLES HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT RECALLED. ALSO, SINCE THIS ITEM IS KNOWN TO BE DEFECTIVE, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE WARRANTY REQUIRES THE PART TO BE SUBMITTED BEFORE ANY ACTION IS TAKEN OR ANY REBATE IS ISSUED. I COULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY SINCE THE PART WAS DISCARDED BY THE MECHANIC UPON DETERMINING THAT IT WAS DEFECTIVE.
