What owners wrote
2009 infiniti g37x coupe is experiencing dangerous surges in acceleration upon braking, the transmission is jerking and going into "fail safe mode" (meaning suddenly the car is stuck in the highest gear), the rear differential is clunking and jerking as if the car is going into AWD mode at times it should not be, and quite frankly I am now becoming scared of the car. It has 3800 miles on it. I took it into the dealership on friday and was told there are a couple of known issues with the transmission but no fix.
2009 infiniti g37 has electrical wiring insulation made of soy-based polymer. Soy based polymer is apparently biodegradable. The problem is that it is also attractive to rodents, who eat the wiring, creating electrical safety hazards. In addition to the safety hazards, it also creates an economic stressor on consumers and insurers who have to pay for repairs done to these automobiles, which infiniti claims is not covered under any existing warranty.
