#2729 of 2835 Great Service -- Pepe Infiniti White Plains by mjr242 Jan 23, 2009 (9:28 am)
Although this is my first post here, I used this site extensively to research my 2007 G35 purchase -- thanks to everyone on here who provides such useful advice to car novices such as myself. For those just looking to buy and are torn between dealers, for what it is worth I just had my first warranty claim and had a great experience at Pepe Infiniti in White Plains. The claim is non-obvious. I was driving about a week ago in the brutal cold and heard a loud pop. In that instant, a very large spider crack appeared on the windshield originating outwards from the point where the rearview mirror attaches. The warranty problem is that by all outward appearances it looks like the crack was caused by an impact (not covered under warranty) as opposed to a stress crack (covered). Although I know it wasn't from impact because a) I was in the car and nothing hit me, and b) the glass is absolutely smooth without the slightest impact crater, it didn't appear that way to the naked eye. After speaking to a couple of people it looked as if it would not be covered, as I had no way to prove, other than my word, that nothing blunt hit the windshield or that nothing hit the rearview mirror from the inside causing the damage. I asked for a second opinion and wound up speaking to the Service Manager at Pepe, Tom Grimont, and explained the whole situation. Although I have to admit I was not at my calmest at this point, Tom was very professional and really went to bat for me. He took a bunch of pictures, called his regional managers, etc., and was able to convince Infiniti to cover the claim. Fantastic service all around and definitely makes me more likely to not just buy another Infiniti, but to buy it from Pepe. Replies to this message: almatti (Feb 13, 2009 7:37 pm)
#2730 of 2835 60K Maintenance by mnrep2 Jan 24, 2009 (7:32 am)
We have a 05 G35X that went in for the 60K maintenance. Decided to change all of the fluids in the driveline, Transmission, front and rear Differential cases. Wow, I could not believe how well the car drove after that visit. That transmission fluid must have been like mud! That 5 speed auto drives just like new again. Super smooth and immediate shifts. If your G is at this mileage I highly recommend this service. Replies to this message: esfoad (Jan 24, 2009 7:35 am)

Replying to: mnrep2 (Jan 24, 2009 7:32 am) I've changed my tranny fluid at 30K, and 60K miles. I'm now at 82K and will change again at 90K per the manufacturer recommendations. I agree, the car runs like new after the change so I highly recommend following the maintenance schedule if you want your car to last long and drive like new. I'm amazed how well my car drives with 82K miles on it.
#2732 of 2835 06 G35x seat replacement? by yogiowner Feb 08, 2009 (8:08 pm)
Hello,   The leather on my 06 g35x driver's seat is begining to crack. Also the seat is uncomfortable.   Does anyone know if I can get a new seat from Infiniti? can I change it to the better quality seat in the 2007 or 2008?

Replying to: yogiowner (Feb 08, 2009 8:08 pm) You should try Leatherique. It's awesome stuff for leather. Available at the company website. Of course, it won't make the seat more comfortable. Replies to this message: yogiowner (Feb 09, 2009 9:43 pm)

#2737 of 2835 G35 Steering Noise/shift movement by heedforsho Feb 13, 2009 (3:12 pm)
Hey everyone, I was hoping for some help. My 08 G35 sedan makes a small noise and strong shift in the wheel when im doing relatively sharp turns in the car. It only does it going less then 5mph hour. The best example is if Im pulling out of a parking spot and turning left. The wheel is not maxed out but when i start to turn it does a small shift movement. It like something is slipping. I have taken it to the dealership and they have said that its the stopper on the rack and pinion and that it cant be fixed cause that is how the car is made. I def do not agree with this since it wasnt happening when i bought it. Can someone advise me on if they have expierenced this or how to possibly fix it.   Thanks for your time -Mike

Replying to: mjr242 (Jan 23, 2009 9:28 am) mjr242: I too have had nothing but raves for Pepe Infiniti. From the leasing of the vehicle (can't believe end of April will be 2 years!!) to servicing needs. I have an 07 G35X Auto, had TSB 028 applied without question, and this week, at 16k mileage, brought the car in for upbrupt upshift into 3rd gear and front brake noise. They checked out the shifting problem [if you go to G35Driver.com forum you will read about TSBs - touchy throttles, etc], found a faulty tranny valve body, replaced without question, attended to the rattles in the dashboard at the steering coulmn, and found the front brake rotors slightly warped - fixed with a resurfacing. The new valve body corrected the "hard' shift into 3rd gear and in fact, makes the car run as intended. Without a doubt I would not hesitate going back to Pepe in White Plains...
