Broken Door Handle - add to the list...
Looks like I'm once again a victom of the wonderful build quality of the G35: This moring the door handle/armrest broke right off while closing the door. It was gettting loose the past few weeks [from normal use mind you], and I has an appointment to get it fixed in a few weeks, but it looks like another trip the dealer to fix it today.
Hmm, 5K+ miles and I'm on my 9th trip to the dealer - I'm getting to realize there are more important things in a $40K+ car then just a good driveline and suspension. I would like to say good brakes also, but the constant squeaking and having the rotors replaced already does not warrent a complement.

I have an 03 sedan with 56000 miles and I have never had any problems with the build quality. /me knocks on wood.
All mass produced products will have some defective units, sorry for your bad luck, the more you bitch at them the better they will take care of you, so go in there irate and tell them everything you just told us!
