2003 Infiniti G35 recall: fuel system

⚠️ What's wrong

On certain passenger vehicles, the fuel hose connection for the outlet of the fuel pump which is located at the top of the fuel tank may not have been properly attached when the vehicle was assembled and could come loose while driving or when starting the engine.

💥 The risk

If the connection comes loose while driving, the engine will stop running due to lack of fuel, increasing the risk of a crash. Also, if the connection comes loose while driving or attempting to start or restart the engine, some fuel will discharge from the fuel pump. If this should occur in the presence of an external ignition source, a fire could result.

🔧 The fix

Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, properly attach the fuel hose to the fuel pump. Owner notification is expected to begin october 7, 2002. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact infiniti at 1-800-662-6200.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
