1997 Infiniti I30 — reported problems

CarFaultIQ holds 107 evidence records for the 1997 Infiniti I30, drawn from official sources and owner complaints.

What owners report: issue areas

Owner complaints are classified by the system they concern: 28 classifications in all. One complaint can concern several systems, so these add up to more than the number of complaints.

  • Electrical system7 (25.0%)Official recall records for this system: 4, covering model years 1997–1998.
  • Brakes6 (21.4%)
  • Engine3 (10.7%)
  • Fuel system2 (7.1%)
  • Speed control & accelerator2 (7.1%)
  • Air bags (restraint system)1 (3.6%)Official recall records for this system: 4, covering model years 2001.

Other / uncategorized: 3 classifications (10.7%) were not assigned to a specific system by the source. They are counted but not treated as an issue area.

These are counts of records held by CarFaultIQ, not a failure rate. More records can simply mean more vehicles were sold or more owners reported. No vehicles-in-service figure exists in this data, so no reliability or risk score can be derived from it.

What the records are about, by source

Each source is kept separate: owner complaints, recalls, manufacturer communications and investigations are different kinds of record and are never added together. All model years.

  • Owner complaints (488 records, model years 1996–2001) are most frequently classified under: air bags (restraint system), electrical system and suspension.
  • Manufacturer communications (747 records, model years 1996–2001) are most frequently classified under: equipment & accessories, visibility (glass, wipers, mirrors) and electrical system.

"Most frequently classified under" reports how the records are filed by the source. It is not a finding about causes, and a record can be filed under more than one system. Read the individual records
