Anyone successfully lemoned an Infiniti here in Texas?

We've had the new G for a little over a year and it's been in the shop more than any other car we've owned. While Sewell has bent over backwards (seriously, VERY, VERY good service -- on the same level as Park Place Lexus), it's becoming quite silly.

At this point, I'm looking at disposing of the car, and we're going to take a big hit simply because the stupid thing can't stay out of the repair bay.

Has anyone successfully lemoned an Infiniti here?

Wow that sucks so what's been the bigest problem? Good luck I would look up a lawyer that specializes in that and see what they think. Keep us posted and good luck. Kirk

It's mostly little, but annoying things. Made doubly annoying since they are happening to my wife and I have to listen to it .

I'd rather not air everything publicly just yet...

+1 on the service at Sewell. I hope you get the problems figured out...I'm sure it would be hard to let her go.

Are the issues cosmetic or are they keeping the car from being driveable?

A mix of both. Not hard core not driveable, but very annoying to work around to actually drive.

And IMO, the brakes suck rocks, but apparently I'm biased, 1 piston G35 brakes aren't as good as 4 piston Brembos in my Evo or in the originial G35Coupe 6MT we had.

?? I've got the stock calipers which are one piston jobbies that stop the car, but not with the ability of the 03 G35Coupe or Evo Brembos. It feels more like a Civic stopping honestly.

I have an 08 G35S sedan... the brakes don't look like that. And they still suck.
