Infiniti acceleration problems

Owners have filed 430 complaints with NHTSA about the throttle and cruise control on Infiniti vehicles — 4% of everything reported about the brand, across 30 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Infiniti G35, worst in 2004.

These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
