It sounds like you didn't use an independent mechanic :P

But then correct me if I am wrong, I'd imagine that the 2010+ models have less bugs and issues than the 2009 models right? I've been looking at TrueDelta reliability records, and the 2010+ ones seem to be right on the money.

Also, is there a list of recalls/ TSB's posted on the internet that I can access?

I just bought a pre-owned 09 with 58k on it at the end March, I just made sure a bought the extender warranty( Infiniti Wrap) and did my 60k service all was done at 58k when I bought it. I now have almost 61500 on her now, Have Ztubes, and true dual catback, UPREV tune and I had zero issue, Key for me was a 1 owner car and had service records. Just make sure it was cared for before you. The independent inspection is a great idea, Tell them is a used a car check up and they will go through everything including how cold the AC blows

yes you're right I didn't use an independent mechanic, I'm not sure if the 2010 has less bugs than the 2009 but I know theres no recalls so far, but I like the TrueDelta reliability records site you provided, and its seem the problem reported on the 2009 are dead on also.

1-the cruise control sensor and had a new radio install the cost was
$11 000 tks God for the warranty

2- a new battery

3- the power steering is leaking will be getting the new part in a week appointment book for June 23

4- had to replace the fog light on my own and had to replace the rotors and pads, they were asking $700 to have the rear done, had my friend replace them for $150.

the valve stem cover are cracking and they're asking me $200 to replace just one???

5- Im waiting for that one or else I will trade it in lol


lol i had the same problem regarding the bleeder valve caps but i done some digging and found replacements it will cost u less than 20 bucks.

Thanks you for the link will save it for the future but what I meant was this
those were rusted and now they are cracking, I guess the owner before me drove them during the past 4 winter.

I love my '10 Sedan, I've got the 18" wheel option and the sport spoiler. Only issues I've had are as follows…

- Power Steering Pump, replaced under warranty.
- My dad ran up on a curb and the front bumper got a spider crack
- My dad also scraped the front left corner on the garage while backing out.
- My heavy right foot resulting in roasted tires

So, only one real problem. The others are simply user error.

Edit: Forgot to mention. My front bumper has rock chips and sh*t all over it. Would DEFINITELY recommend a clear bra. I think they're like $200 or something. Totally, totally, totally worth the money, imo.
