Yeah, I think you should be fine. If you didn't get a letter, it shouldn't apply to you. The dealer can always check from your VIN though.

I took mine in yesterday and brought both keyfobs w/ me and they fixed it on the spot. Mine was delivered on Dec 21st, so it definitely needed to be fixed.

can i get the new keys without the letter from infiniti? i'm still waiting for the letter. i did check the keys and didn't see the circle that the new ones have (which means it must be replaced).

Yes you can. You just need to call the dealership whether they have the replacement keys in stock.

i went in last week to check out my battery issues and they told me about the key fab recall. I knew about it and stupidly forgot the 2nd key. I made another 30 mile trip back there this morning and had it done in less then a hour. Pain free and cost nada. I had a prob with my keyfab like 2 days after i got it, where i couldnt open the door or start the car, but it started up after i put the fab in the slot. I didnt want to be left stranded anywheere so i made the trip worth while, and got a haircut at my old barber , to bad for the rain, or i would have had it washed aswell.

I'm sitting in the dealership waiting room.
I dropped the G off at 11, for an 11 am appointment.
It's now 1pm and they are not done yet, and this place is DEAD today...I'm the only one here.

I'm having the fobs replaced (talked them into letting me keep the old ones), getting an oil change and the voice tag TSB.
Also asked about the clunking noise in the rear when hitting bumps and told them to come and get me if the tech needs to take it for a ride, but I've heard nothing yet.

***EDIT***
I walked in and asked what was taking 2 1/2 hours.
The tech can hear the very faint clunk, but is still hunting it down.
If it's getting fixed, I'm happy.
If I leave here after 3+ hours and still have a clunk...

***EDIT #2***
3 1/2 hours later... bad rear sway bar.

But, I walked away with all four fobs... 2 old and 2 new.

Ugh.

Is 60 seconds enough to fry the i-key?

The belt clip on my Blackberry 8800 holster case broke ; so today at lunch I walked over to the local cell store to get a replacement. On the way, for like 60 seconds, I put phone in my pocket, completely forgetting it's the same pocket and my i-key.

When I realized what I had done, immediately removed it. Is 60 seconds enough to fry the i-key?

I am curious if I need to put my wife on standby to meet me in the parking lot after work!!! I got the recall notice, but I had only planned on getting the ikeys replaced on my next oil change as I have had no issues to date.

If the phone didn't ring or get an incoming message, you should be okay.
The GSM phones do update every so often, but that's not usually enough to cause the damage.

I think you're okay.... but why keep the wife on standby?
If you're that worried, just keep the other with you, in another pocket.

It happened to me today. I parked myself at home and went to the trunk to take out some bags and the I-Key worked fine. Then I went back to the drivers door in order to close the car, but I had the bags and my cellphone in my hand and couldn't press the button on the door. So I put the Cell in my left pocket were my Key was, and suddenly my girlfriend called. When I pressed the button handle it didn't work. Tried the other side, the trunk, and even starting the car, but it said "No Key".

I have a Motorolla Razor. I've always kept the keys apart from the cell, in my left pocket the key, and in my right pocket the Cellphone. Just happen accidentally today when I mixed them and my girlfrien just happened to call.

Hope it doesn't happen to you. Take care.

That's weird - I used a Razor (iTunes version) for months after getting the car, and tested it by calling the phone with the key sitting on top of it. No issue - wonder if there's a difference between models?

Most dealers should have them now. The told me of the recall about three months ago or so and as soon as they got the keys in, they had me bring in all the original ones and they swapt them out. I never had a problem before, but now I shouldn't expect one.
