How's the G37's reliability?

I'm looking to get a new car in a month or two and I really like the G37, but I was wondering how reliable it is? I'm just asking because Nissan is behind Toyota and Honda in terms of reliability.

Any of you have any problems at all?

thanks

Very unreliable. That's why we all drive them. We like unreliable cars.

Other than a couple of TSB's, mine has been extremely reliable.

Honda and Toyota don't have cars competing with the G. I'm sure its way more reliable then the other car's in it's class ie. German competitors.
335i twin turbo engines can't be that reliable. All luxury car's have fancy electronics these days too, so that's another factor.

Gotta pay to play!

It's funny how it was so reliable under warranty, but as soon as it expired, the TC fails on me and now I have to shell out $2,500 to fix it.

Completely kidding. I've had 0 problems with my G. Never been in service with the exception on one upcoming TSB.

Are dealers required under law to fix TSB's?

I'm not a lawyer to know the requirement, but a TSB is an advisory to the the service departments of known problems. When a dealer confirms you are affected, they typically fix it. I haven't seen any situations where a person has been declined if it is confirmed they are affected by a TSB.
