2000 Infiniti Q45 aniversary edition review from North America
"Piece of junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A lot of things
after 8 times balancing at the dealer and with brand new $800 tire still vibrates
defect wheels
tcs light came on 54500 miles
major transmission problem 54000 miles
engine vibration at 1000 rpm and 2500 rpm
too soft suspension.
General comments?
I was debating between Lexus 430 and this junk infiniti q45
Lexus was only $2000 difference, but because of the looks I decided to go with infiniti cause I had good luck with my 93 j30 but it turn out to be my worst decision of my life.
The infiniti dealer service department is full of non experienced idiots
all they can say is " I don't know"
they don't even know what cause this vibration, they first told me I need balancing and rotation and I did that and then when I came back having the same problem they told me I need my rotors turned, so I got it done and still have the vibration
I didn't have problem with tcs light coming on till dealer service department took a look at my car
I thought service center were there to fix the problem not make them
now Iam so scared to take my car to them again
and now Iam in a situation where Iam so sick and tire this junk
I just want a new car, and I know its not gonna be a nissan.
