Infiniti Hush Money?

bad build quality, 04/04/2010
2009 INFINITI G37 2dr Convertible (3.7L 6cyl 7A)
5 of 10 people found this review helpful

Right after I purchased a 2009 G37 Convertible, I noticed that there was persistent creaking coming from both sides of the rear portion of the hardtop. That night, I put the top down and up, and noticed that the trunk was opened afterward, so I closed it manually. The next morning, I approached my car in the garage to find the trunk opened again. 2 days later, the engine refused to go past 10 mph and the Engine Light was on so I was forced to bring it into the dealership. It's since been over 30 days and Infiniti has tried to solve the problem twice to no avail. I still don't have my car. Most of all, I'm wondering where the other bad reviews are? Can anyone say Infiniti Hush Money?

Nice cruiser but terrible transmission

I traded an '06 Passat for my G three months ago. So far really like the car except for a couple of complaints. The transmission jolts the car when shifting gears most of the time and the quick shift is useless. Hesitates when changing gears and then it's like it can't decide which gear to settle into when downshifting. Very annoying and disappointing. Also, cruise control revs the engine suddenly when using the accelerate feature. Personally don't care about the poor gas mileage. It's not that bad and I wasn't expecting too much with this much power.

Bought my first Infiniti in 2016. It's 2022 and Im still driving it. Im on the road all day long and it's been nothing but spectacular. 330,000 K's at present. Regular oil and maintenance is the key. Ive had problems with the throttle bodies among other problems but its worth the fix. Michelin Premiers have worked great in the snow with the AWD. Currently considering an upgrade because technology has left me behind somewhat. Looking at another G37X (like it better than Q50), an Acura TLX or Lexus IS350. ** Here we are in 2023, Test drove 4 TLX's and 2 Lexus IS300's. After all those tests I drove another Q50S and bought it!!. Wanted to buy the TLX but didn't compare in comfort and especially handling **

Favorite car ever!

I bought this car off a lot as a stolen recovery with 52k miles and a salvage title, so I got it for a GREAT price. Never wrecked, nothing whatsoever wrong with it but for a door seal I had to replace. I love this car, more power than you'll ever need, to the point of breaking the rear tires loose at 75mph on damp pavement when I stepped on it hard to change lanes and the VVT kicked in, YIKES! You can pass anything at any time, and still get 26-28mpg hwy and 22 around town. Handling is precise and crisp without being twitchy, and it handles curves on rails, very nice seat bolsters help too. It rides great, firm, but not uncomfortable at all to my taste. It's helped by smooth TN roads, up in the pothole, frost freeze northern states I may have another opinion. Seats and interior are very comfortable for the long haul, with all the usual luxury. Interior is also very quiet, which I love, not much road noise at all. Now for a couple minor niggles, the cruise control is not all that accurate going up and down hills, picks up speed going down, then takes 3-5mph drop below set speed to kick back in. Also the transmission has a pretty big lag between off throttle to back on engagement. It will scare you the first time you time you slow down and jump back on it to turn in front of someone and it doesn't go! I've gotten used to it and know how avoid it, so it's no big deal to me now. The only other small thing missing is a headphone jack interface to play Pandora off my phone. Bluetooth is only available on the navigation model, and there is a usb connection in the console which works with my IPOD, but I've never been able to figure out how to play Pandora through it. There's also a hard drive you can copy your CD's onto, so there's really no shortage of music options. Overall, I've owned a lot of cars in my many years, but this one really suits my style, aggressive when you want to be, comfortable when you don't, but always ready to rip, and just a joy to drive anytime!

Move over 3 Series!

I was in the market for an entry level luxury sport sedan for 6 months. All I kept hearing was how great the BMW 3 series was. So I test drove it. While a great performer, the interior felt "boring", and the run flat tires were very loud. So I waited a few more months for the G37 to come out. I'm very glad I waited. Infiniti was always trying to catch up to the 3 series in terms of performance and styling, and it seems that they finally caught up. To me, it out performs the BMW, with a much more luxurious interior. Plus it's got more ponies (330 vs 300). Let's not even mention the $10k I saved by going with the G. This is the car for the driving enthusiast that wants the performance and luxury
