Default Battery drain

2008 EX 35 had dead battery when I came out from work. Had to get jump start. Had same problem with G35 and the whole Bose Amp system. Traded it for this car and now suffering same problem. it has been 3 days and working OK but still going to take to dealer. Anyone have this problem?

No not like that. Let my coupe sit for a few weeks once. It cranked over little slower than normal, but started fine.

Either your charging system not right or something constantly drain battery a lot when it's sitting.

My FX sits for one to two weeks all the time. I have never had a problem. Keep monitori ng the system and take it in if there is any further problem. There are a few threads for excessive drain in the G like the experience you had but I am yet to read about similar problems with the EX.

I have the 2008 EX35 and have had a dead battery twice this month. the car is one year old. I had the g35 drain and it was the bose audio drain. I traded it for the EX and am really sorry I did. The dealer said it was the radio. Nissan Consumer said it was not. Then they said it was the battery but it was not. My remote starter does not work and I have to bring the car back again for the outside vendor to reprogram. Feels good to be sitting in your work parking lot at 5PM with a dead battery and asking the security guard to jump you from his crapbox car. Meanwhile, the lot is closing in 30 mins for the weekend and Infiniti Roadside tells you they will give you a jump or a tow. But what if I need both. Got your choice!!! Really dissapointed in Infiniti...

Is it just infiniti that has the battery drain problem? What about the Nissan brands such as the maxima?

not sure about Nissan but actually a search reveals many different cars have drains. I did hear from my local dealer that the M series Infiniti has had some complaints of battery drain.
Looking back over my notes show that my bluetooth phone was not working the day before the first drain. I did just have the remote starter (after market, Infiniti did not isntall this as part of this luxury car?!?!?!) reprogrammed and then had to re-do the phone. this technology is a pain in the neck.
Thanks so much for your interest.
