Got a Recall Letter
I received a postcard yesterday about a recall on my car's fuel line and that I would receive an official letter in the future about the recall. Did anyone else receive this? fyi: 2004 G35C. i was hoping it would be a recall on the noisy transmission and rattling rear deck, hehehehe.
I haven't gotten anything in the mail. Also, I don't see anything posted on www.infinitihelp.com about any recalls.

On the other hand, it may be a great time to ask them to install those items during the recall repair. They may not charge you as much as a stand-alone installation.
