The most consistent theme across 2012 Infiniti FX35 complaints is dashboard deterioration. Multiple owners describe the dashboard material becoming sticky and soft, then cracking and chipping over time, and several note that the degraded surface creates a glare reflecting into the windshield while driving. On the mechanical side, a handful of engine complaints describe an audible ticking noise at startup, though no diagnosis or confirmed cause is reported across those accounts. One owner reports a gear-shifting failure traced to the powertrain control module. Airbag and electrical complaints round out the picture but don't form a clear pattern at this complaint volume. The dashboard glare issue draws the most consistent description: a softening surface that owners say progresses to visible cracking and a reflective sheen that interferes with forward visibility.
