Have you tried jumping the car with another car? Possible battery issue? This happened to me when a interior light was left on for a while.

Have you tried locking and unlocking the car with your KEY FOB? Is your KEY FOB battery still good?

What year and model is your G? Possible the vehicle immobilizer kicked in?

Do you have a constant small amber key light on on the dash ?
If yes, then it might be a problem related to S/L lock or NATS.
Some error codes will help alot on finding what's the problem there...

I couldnt hear but do you hear any clicking at all when pushing the start button?
Are you outside lights blinking when you try to start it?
Are you not able to open the trunk with the switch inside the car?
Most of these symptoms would lead to a bad battery, i would try jumping the car if possible even if you did switch out the batter.

Other than that could be a Immobilizer issue which you may need to bring it to Infiniti to resolve? Though you can try putting your KEY FOB in the slot to your bottom left of the steering wheel then start the car?

A proper scan tool that can read the error codes on that car will help alot on finding where the problem can be...

Call AAA & have it towed to your Infiniti dealer
Request a loaner & have the dealer call you when its fixed.
End of problem

What did you use to check for error codes?
Don't tell me you used some cheap bluetooth OBD scanner and torque app... because that won't give you any error code even if you had 100 errors...
