I am really disappointed by the "quality" that Infiniti has put into this product of theirs. They claim to be on the level of Lexus or BMW, but honestly guys if my car is any indication of their standard production quality it is far from those prestigous marques.

People always rag on American quality, but I persoanlly owned a GMC Jimmy that lasted ten years that NEVER had the noise for rattles et al that this $42,000.00 car has. Would I recommend this car to a family member or friend? Well maybe, if they put the engine in a Lexus quality body.

Sorry for the rant, but this really is something I would have never thought would have been an issue. I plan on writing a letter to Infiniti detailing the things I have outlined here.

Happens whenever the chassis flexes which to me seems like a design flaw.

Hell, there were so many rattles and squeaks nobody would have been able to identify one single one or where it was coming from (everywhere). I'm sure you're a little disappointed in rattles in your $40k car but come on, don't compare the G37 to a GMC Jimmy for God's sakes....

I would think Infiniti that aspires to be the luxury car division of Nissan and hopes to be in the best of company with some of the finest automobiles in the world, can never be with quality control issues, that I and many other people have complained about. I would put GMC (and in your case Chevy) in a completely different level of quality than what Infiniti SHOULD be. My standard of a $25k car vs. $42k is stricter. Perhaps your Blazer was loud, it's a Chevy, not a luxury car. But you are right, I am more than a little disappointed in what I consider to be an expensive car.

One of the biggest complaints of the early G35 interiors were rattles and I am still reading about them to this day. I don't see the same problems with the M which is a different platform. Regardless, it's unacceptable for our cars. This is one of the reasons I will not buy another G35/37. It's a great car not counting these issues and tires.
