What owners wrote

Brand new 2005 infiniti g35x, 5 days old. Driving with my son and a passenger up a hill approx 60 MPH, entered turn saw a truck, went to apply breaks but they did not work. I turned the vehicle so as to not hit the truck direct and cause less damage. The driver of the other vehicle did not hear the breaks, my son nor his friend felt the vehicle try to stop. Result is $2500 in body damage to my car. The dealer states nothing is wrong and that it is my fault.

Reported at 550 miles, September 2005 CrashInjury

Leased vehicle, highway driving and very limited local/city driving. Brakes had 'grinding' noise whenever initially applied and I was told by dealer that was how the "european brake system" sounds -? Required front brake pads/rotors replaced at ~ 19,000 miles 8 months after acquiring the car. Rear brake pads/rotors then had to be replaced 13 months after acquiring the car at ~ 29,000 miles. Was told when had car in for faulty air bag light ~ 6 weeks ago front pads were worn to 4.5 mm.
