1999 Infiniti G20 review from North America
"Service managers dream"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air conditioner compressor.
Airbag light goes on and off.
The car rattles all over.
Transmission "whine"
Check engine light has came on 16 separate times.
Once while hand washing the car, I was scrubbing mud off the rear wheel well and the plastic faring popped off. Turns out it was being held on with the corner of one screw. Poor quality control at the factory.
General comments?
This car is the noisiest, most anoying car I have ever owned. It has rattles in the trunk, under the hood, in the dash, glove compartment door, ect..
This car has no power whatsoever with the automatic transmission. It can never decide which gear to switch to when passing.
What's with the goofy lights on the front fenders?
The one good thing I can say about this car is that it handles really well. Tight steering, predicable limits. However, the ride is a little rough.
If you want a car that handles good, but has little or no power, and you like sitting in a dealership waiting room, This is the car for you.
