Brakes Issue Question

Hey guys. I have a 2003 G35 Sedan. My brakes are faded and my pads are squeeking like a mother Fer. I was wondering if these things can be replaced under warranty or something. It is something I heard. By the way, my car is under 60,000k miles.

This topic has been discussed ad nauseum. A simple search would have given you your answer you were seeking.

And to answer your question, if you didn't do anything funny, your model car is covered under warranty for the brakes for 3 years or 36,000 miles. They will replace your pads and/or rotors free of charge if they are at or under the minimum spec. Good luck.

I don't see any reason to be rude to this individual, that is uncalled for, he is a relatively newcomer here!

I'm not being rude. I just clearly pointed out that there is a search function, there is information out there, even hyperlinked a specific search, and I even posted the answer to his question. Hell, I even wished him good luck! If I just told him to do a search and nothing else to help him/her then that would be rude.

Okay, I just felt the term "ad nauseum" made it sound rude, sorry!

Under 60K dosent matter. You are only covered if you are still in your factory warranty or you have an extended warranty.

Question

Are not brake pads considered "normal" maintenance parts and NOT covered under ANY warranty? Unless they are worn out in say less than 12K miles? Lord, I had a Chrysler Sebring Convertable that would just EAT brakes. The most I could get was 20K, most went out at 12 to 15K. Not a real big deal, you could replace the rotors/pads in about 20 minutes a side, it was just a PITA.

For the 2003 and 2004 non-Brembo models, Infiniti issued a letter to the owners stating that the OEM brake pads and rotors would be covered under warranty for 3 years or 36K miles, whichever comes first. Brake pads and/or rotors would be replaced free of charge in that time frame if they wore to or under the minimum specs. This was in response to owner complaints of 'unreasonable' rapid brake wear.

I don't know about 2003 model, but my 2004 brakes were squealing at 20k miles recently and the dealership replced the rotors and pads all around at no charge to me.

Unless the customer wishes to pay for them, brakes are only done if they are at or under 3mm thick. Milage dosent matter as long as you car still covered by your factory warranty.
