| I lose complete control of my climate control which results in my a/c being stuck on. my radio controls are also gone. the whole center dash is in complete electrical failure. this is a hazard due to windows fogging up while driving. also i've researched that there are recalls only for sedans, i don't understand this because the same parts are in the coupes. | |||

| The defroster, ac/heating system, radio, and selected lights on the dashboard fail randomly, causing the windows to fog in certain weather conditions, making it quite hazardous to drive. the system will automatically turn on, then the fan cycles to higher speeds about every 20 seconds. the heating/air system will become completely uncontrollable, rendering all defrost controls inoperable. during this time, the radio display turns itself off, and all controls on the face of the unit are disabled. the stereo can still be controlled by the steering wheel controls. all button lights remain off, while the center display, located just below the windshield, remains on. there has been a recall for the sedan version of this year/model vehicle for the same issue. the following is the service campaign number for the sedan recall: itb03-007. *tr | |||

| Im currently having trouble with my center console losing power to my ac and radio. the problems range from center console display shortages, ac blasting at full strength and being unable to change the setting, to the radio intermittently putting out sound. this problem has led to safety issues with the car in that the inability to control the ac results in fogged over windshields leading to poor visibility. i've read online that this problem affects many owners of the same car. it was such a problem that infiniti recalled the '03 g35 sedan for the exact same problems. it is embarrassing that inifiniti does not stand by their product across the board. if they acknowledged that it was a problem in the sedan why are they not responsible for fixing the same problem in the two door model. would like to know how this problem may be remedied | |||

| 1) called the dealership and was told there is a technical bulletin on how to fix the problem but it wasn't a recall and will cost approx. $800 due to a malfunctioning of a circuit board. 2) the climate control and radio are inoperable about every other time we start the car. i read current recalls for this exact problem for the sedan and not the coupe. i just don't understand that. i know there are other's with the same issue. hope this become a recall soon. *tr | |||

| Something was draining the battery in the electrical system. one day while trying to start the car after it had been sitting for a few days, everything flickered (headlights, dashlights, control panel) and then the car wouldn't start. charged the battery and then the radio, ac/heater/defroster did not work properly. have seen many similar complaints on the internet. *tr | |||
