What owners wrote
Engine consumes 2.5 qrts oil every 800 miles & only 19-20 miles per gal gas and this decreases with oil consumption. Clutch assy faulty/ grinding noise increased with mileage ,windows have binding noise up/down, passenger air bag light does not illuminate when seat is occupied or unoccupied.
Not sure this is something you would pursue but I have not been able to get satisfaction from lake norman infiniti locally or their national customer service support desk. I have a 2006 infiniti coupe with 24k miles on it. I had an issue with what was determined to be the cooling fans for that car. I was told by the parts manager(john) at the dealership that car has known issues with the cooling fans. The service manager (victor) sent me to the national team. The car went into service on 08/05/06.
