2012 Infiniti G 4dr Sedan

328-horsepower 3.7L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD

25000 mi

US $60
The sunroof has a drain that has a plastic part. The part failed and water was penetrating the cabin. This is not covered by warranty. However, the dealer and Infiniti covered this under goodwill; and I paid a nominal amount. The repair itself was very time consuming but the part itself was rather inexpensive. This to me seems more like a manufacturing defect 
32000 mi Water penetration into cabin. Problem lies in sunroof drains that become blocked. This is a problem noted in various YouTube videos and G37 owner forums. I was able to get this covered by virtue of an extended warranty Arguably the terms of the warranty do not cover water leaks. However I was able to induce the dealer to repair. This requires replacement of the drain hose (only the two front hoses; although there are also two in the rear of the sunroof opening) and the drain hose grommet which passes through the firewall and allows water to drain to the ground. This problem is very disappointing to me. I like the car very much. This is a design defect and Infiniti should be embarrassed. Our other car, a 2004 Lexus RX330, has a sunroof and we have never had a problem. 
190000 mi Water entering car and pooling on passenger floormat. Unable to find source. They blew ac lines and sunroof drains free but it was not that. 
12200 mi Bad headliner rattle. Dealer provide loaner and fixed it
