Buyer’s Guide
For 2006, the Infiniti FX35 and FX45 receive a facelift and several new standard features.
The FX35 receives a leather interior with heated seats, ten-way power driver’s seat and eight-way power passenger seat, and new 18-inch wheel designs. The FX45 receives a new aluminum and wood trim finish, and new 20-inch wheel designs. Both models receive a sunroof, automatic headlamps, aluminum roof rails, cargo net and cover, universal garage door opener, rearview monitor, Bluetooth hands-free phone system, power tilt and telescopic wheel, 300-watt six-CD/MP3 Bose stereo with ten speakers, heated mirrors, new centre console design, electroluminescent gauges, new front grille and bumper design, revised suspension tuning with new shock absorbers, and advanced airbag system. There’s a new Wheat interior colour, and new exterior Liquid Platinum, Serengeti Sand and Autumn Copper shades.
The FX’s on-demand all-wheel-drive system (which goes by the snappy name of ATTESA E-TS, or Advanced Total Traction Engineering System for All Electronic Torque Split) runs at 99 per cent rear wheel bias under most conditions; when slip is detected, up to 50 per cent power goes to the front wheels. As evidenced by their names, the FX35 is powered by a 3.5-litre V6; the FX45 receives a 4.5-litre V8. Both use a five-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission with manual shift mode. Infiniti’s available Lane Departure Warning system alerts the driver with a series of beeps if the vehicle strays over the lines, but it’s smart enough to know when you’re just making a lane change, and can be turned off completely if desired.
The FX35 comes with 18-inch, seven-spoke alloy wheels, automatic rear hatch closure assist system, four-wheel ventilated disc brakes, aluminum interior trim, heated ten-way power driver and eight-way power passenger seat, reclining rear seats with 60/40 folding split, dual-zone climate control, information display monitor, and three-spoke leather-wrapped wheel with audio controls.
The FX45 adds 18-inch, eight-spoke alloy wheels, sport suspension tuning, auto up/down on all windows, and aluminum pedals.
Beautifully designed, the FX uses a sloping roofline that dictates only two rows of seats, and there isn’t a great deal of cargo space given the vehicle’s size, although the rear seats fold to take in oversized items. The FX45 is fast, and on both models, the brakes are rock-solid and handling is superb.

Manufacturer Recall Number:
Units Affected:
36,217
Notification Type:
Safety Mfr
Issue:
This recall is for certain vehicles that had an airbag inflator replaced as a part of an earlier recall campaign. This recall provides a final repair.
Long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, may eventually degrade the propellant contained in the passenger-front airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. If the airbag inflator ruptures, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants or cause damage to the airbag assembly, preventing its proper function.
Safety Risk:
If the vehicle is involved in a crash requiring an airbag deployment, the airbag inflator could rupture and create a risk of injury.
Corrective Actions:
Owners will be notified by mail and instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to inspect the passenger-front airbag inflator. The passenger-front airbag module or inflator will be replaced as necessary. Note: The Canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. This recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk. It is expected that all airbag inflators will be replaced before their function would be affected.

On certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, could eventually degrade the propellant contained in the passenger frontal airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. As a result, if the vehicle were involved in a collision that warrants airbag deployment, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants, and the airbag assembly could be damaged, preventing proper function. These issues could increase the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the passenger frontal airbag inflator. Note: Canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. The recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk, and is expected to replace airbag inflators before their function would be affected.

Certain vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of CMVSS 108 - Lamps, Reflective Devices and Associated Equipment. The stop, tail, and turn signal lamp function may be too dim when viewed at certain angles. Reduced visibility increases the risk of the vehicle being involved in a crash. Correction: Dealers will replace the rear combination lamps.

Notification Type:
Safety Mfr
On certain vehicles, the fuel filler hose may crack from exposure to ozone. This could cause fuel leakage from the hose while refuelling and the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) to illuminate as a result of the onboard diagnostic system detecting a leak in the evaporative emission control system. Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire. Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel filler hose.
