ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

The fuel gauge in my Infiniti G35x is malfunctioning and does not show the correct fuel levels. As a result, my vehicle has unexpectedly run out of fuel multiple times, causing it to stop on the side of the road. This poses a significant safety risk as it can lead to sudden and dangerous situations for both myself and other drivers. Stopping on the side of the road in such conditions can also result in potential traffic violations. This issue needs to be addressed to ensure safer driving.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Fuel gauge in instrument cluster malfunctioned, inaccurately reading more than half full. This caused me to run out of gas on a public road. In addition to the risk of becoming a stationary road hazard, I lost power brakes and steering when the gas ran out which caused me to almost hit the car in front of me. The problem has not been reproduced by a dealship or service center, however I had the sending units replaced which a mechanic said would fix the issue and it didn't. The gauge is still inaccurate. I have not had the cluster inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representative. I have researched the issue myself and learned that the cluster is commonly defective, I also have an intermittent left turn signal. There was a check engine light (P0462) intermittently on, which was temporarily fixed by replacing the sending units but has since come back. I don't know when they first appeared.

AIR BAGS

The airbag light keeps blinking. I have had no incidents. I saw that there was an issue with this year model. i would like it covered with the repair.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,STRUCTURE

WHILE I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70MPH, THE GLASS FROM MY SUNROOF FLEW OFF OF MY VEHICLE ONTO ON COMING TRAFFIC. THERE IS NO ACTIVE RECALL FOR THIS AND IT SEEMS THAT MAY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC),SERVICE BRAKES

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY 50 MY WAY TO WORK THE FOLLOWING DASH LIGHTS CAME ON VDC OFF, ABS, SLIP. AFTER PULLING OVER TO EXAMINE WHAT WAS WRONG I DISCOVERED I HAD NO BRAKE LIGHTS & THE 10 AMP BRAKE FUSE HAD BLOWN. I THEN GOT BACK IN MY CAR TO DRIVE TO A PARTS STORE & THE SHIFT LOCK WOULDN'T DISENGAGE. SO I MANUALLY ENGAGED THE SHIFT LOCK & DROVE TO THE PARTS STORE & REPLACED THE FUSE BUT THE DASH LIGHTS WERE STILL ON SO I BEGAN TO DRIVE HOME & THE BRAKES BECAME TIGHTER & WOULDN'T RELEASE & THEY EVENTUALLY WERE COMPLETELY LOCKED WITH ALL 4 SO HOT THEY WERE SMOKING SO I PARKED IT. THE NEXT DAY I WENT TO DRIVE TO A MECHANIC & THE BRAKES HAD RELEASED BUT THE MORE I DROVE THEY STARTED ENGAGING ON THEIR OWN WITHOUT RELEASING & BECAME HOT AGAIN SO I PARKED IT AGAIN. BASICALLY AFTER IT SETS THE BRAKES RELEASE BUT AFTER DRIVING FOR A SHORT DISTANCE 2-5 MILES THEY BEGIN TO ENGAGE & NOT RELEASE CAUSING THEM TO OVERHEAT. I'VE SEARCHED THE INTERNET FOR SOLUTIONS & IT APPEARS NUMEROUS PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM & SOME HAVE HAD A SHORT IN A BRAKE WIRE HARNESS & OTHERS HAVE REPLACED SPEED SENSORS OR ABS PUMPS BUT THEY CAN'T TELL WHICH CAUSED THE PROBLEM SINCE IT'S INTERMITTENT. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE I WAS IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY WITH A TRACTOR TRAILOR BEHIND ME & MY BRAKES BEGAN ENGAGING ON THEIR OWN & I WAS TERRIFIED OF BEING REAR ENDED & POSSIBLY KILLED. NOW I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW IF IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN OR HOW TO FIX IT. *TR
