New Car Assessment Program
The 1995INFINITIG20 carries 32 consumer safety complaints in NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation database for this specific model-year cohort. Within that volume, owners reported 5 crashes, 0 fires, 4 injuries, and 0 fatalities. No NCAP 5-star crash-test rating is available for this model year in the federal database.
Component-level analysis is where model-year complaints become actionable: the top complaint category for the 1995 G20 is structure:body with 3 filings, followed by air bags:frontal (3) and visibility:power window devices and controls (3). Concentration in one or two component groups is the classic signature of a systemic defect; a flat distribution usually reflects normal aging, warranty complaints, or isolated build-plant variability.
NHTSA currently has 7 investigation files overlapping the 1995 G20. Owners comparing this cohort against neighboring years should pair the counters above with the complaint-by-year trend on the parent model page — a spike in a single year often tracks to a platform refresh, a new transmission supplier, or an updated ECU calibration.

20030902POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FAILURE ON MY 1995 INFINITI G20. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. VEHICLE HAS BEEN PROPERLY MAINTAINED. I WROTE THE INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS DIVISIONS BUT WAS INFORMED THEY DO NOT KEEP RECORDS OF HOW MANY TRANSMISSION FAILURE OCCURRED FOR THIS MODEL AND IF THEY DID THEY WOULD NOT RELEASE THE INFORMATION. I WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUT IF THIS TRANSMISSION FAILURE IS A SYSTEMIC DEFECT FOR THIS YEAR AND MAKE OF CAR.*AK
20030327STRUCTURE:BODY:TRUNK LID
I AM THE OWNER OF A 1995 INFINITI G20 (VIN# [XXX]) WITH 110,135 MILES. ONE DAY, UPON OPENING MY TRUNK TO PLACE GROCERIES IN IT, THE TRUNK SLAMMED DOWN ON THE BACK OF MY HEAD AND NECK WHILE BENDING OVER TO PUT SOME ITEMS DEEP INTO IT. THE TRUNK SLAMMED DOWN WITH SUCH FORCE THAT I ENDED UP WITH A CONCUSSION AND BRUISED SPINE PER 2 DOCTORS THAT EXAMINED ME AFTERWARDS. THE 2 SUPPORTING TRUNK GAS LIFTS WERE WORN, HOWEVER, THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE PRODUCED A FORCE GREAT ENOUGH TO CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR HARM WHEN THE TRUNK IS IN THE FULLY OPEN POSITION. I FEEL THAT THIS IS AN ENGINEERING SAFETY DEFECT ON THE PART OF INFINITI/NISSAN AND SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE TO RECTIFY THIS HORRIBLE SAFETY PROBLEM. THIS TRUNK SHOULD BE CONSIDERED HAZARDOUS. *NLM INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

20010816POWER TRAIN:CLUTCH ASSEMBLY:PEDAL/HAND LEVER(MOTORCYCLE)
THE FIRST REPORT HAS TO DO WITH THE CLUTCH SYSTEM. AT 35,000 MILES ON ROUTINE INSPECTION MY DEALER INFORMED ME THAT CLUTCH CYLINDER NEAR THE CLUTCH PEDAL WAS SEIZING AND CAUSING AN ANNOYING SQUEAK. IT TURNS OUT THE THAT FAILURE OF THIS CYLINDER CAUSED THE PRESSURE PLATE TO NOT RELEASE FROM THE CLUTCH PLATE AS IT NORMALLY SHOULD WHEN TAKEING THE FOOT OFF THE CLUTCH PEDAL. THIS CAUSED THE CLUTCH DISK/PLATE TO EXCESSIVELY WEAR TO THE POINT IT NEEDED REPLACING. MY VEHICLE NOW HAS 59,000 MILES AND THE CYLINDER NEAR THE CLUTCH PEDAL IS SQUEEKING AGAIN... MAKING ME THINK IT IS FAILING AGAIN. I DON'T THINK IT IS NORMAL FOR ME TO REPLACE THIS PART AT MY EXPENSE EVERY 30,000 MILES. I THINK THIS IS A POORLY DESIGNED PART AND THINK THAT INFINITY/NISSAN SHOULD FIND A REPLACEMENT PART THAT DOES NOT FAIL SO OFTEN. THE COST TO ME TO REPLACE THIS EVERYTIME THE CYLINDER FAILS IS IN THE AREA OF $800.00. THE COST INVOLVES THE CYLINDER NEEDING REPLACEMENT AND WELL AS THE TEARDOWN OF THE TRANMISSION SYSTEM
