Car is slipping and have had CV joints checked, fluids replaced. Was told it was the differential coupling. Looked it up and many, many others are having the same issue. This is a safety concern because the transmission is slipping on these cars when they get to 50,000+ miles.

Check Engine light came on. Diagnosis revealed timing chain needs to be replaced. Mileage is past the warranty but years is not past the warranty. Repair comes just a couple of months after gear shift locked up and full gear shift assembly had to be replaced.

Malfunction of Power Train from 2018 Infiniti QX60. On July 19th, I visited Infiniti of Beachwood due to engine error light (error code P0776, CVT tranmission malfunction) of 2018 Infiniti QX60 (VIN: 5N1DL0MN0JC533475, mileage 79600). Infiniti dealer service at beachwood asked me wait untill they receive transmission warranty approval from their regional Headquarter. During last 3 weeks, I called more than 20 times but warranty service was still not approved, and on 7th August Infiniti Service manager asked me to bring the car back regardless of driver's safety with mal-functioning transmission when I complained by phone. According to Court Quality Action on March 29th 2022, CVT Warranty of 2015-2018 Infiniti QX60, effective from June 1st 2022, was extended to 96th months/94,000 miles from 72 months/70,000 miles, therefore Infiniti should approve and provide warranty service immediately without approval pending on this. However, Infiniti does not respect Court decision of transmission warranty, nor does not provide warranty service properly timely either including irresponsible attitude of service employees as well. I want Infiniti USA to follow up the court decision of transmission warranty coverage of transmission to be applied immediately to replace it.

The contact owns a 2018 Infiniti QX60. The contact stated that while driving 40 MPH or at slower speeds, the All-Wheel Drive (AWD) failed to function as designed, causing the passenger’s side rear tire to spin. The contact stated that the vehicle was hesitating while attempting to accelerate. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer and was informed that the rear-end electric coupling needed to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure however, the vehicle was not covered under recall or TSB. The approximate failure mileage was 94,000.

I purchased my 2018 QX60 in 2021 at Competition Infiniti as a certified pre-own vehicle. I soon began to hear a rattling noise and the steering wheel would vibrate a little. I brought the vehicle back to the dealer several times with this complain and they keep telling me that their is nothing that the can do for me because that’s the way the vehicle is built. The noise as I was told is common in QX60 models and that I’m not the only person that has complained about it. I told him that I don’t expect for a $30,000+ Luxury vehicle to sound that. They also explained to me that it was something that was built in the vehicle to help with fuel efficiency. I think he called it a Droner or something like that. I love the look my vehicle but I hate driving my vehicle because of this noise. I filed a complaint with Infiniti consumer service as well, who instruct me to have the fail inspected by another Infiniti dealer to make sure the dealer is not refusing to fix the problem. I am disgusted that a vehicle that I purchased at an Infiniti dealer is sounding like this. If you can provide any help in this matter, it would be greatly appreciated.

Vehicle purchased oct 23, 2021. Same day of purchase the vehicle displayed steering issues and acceleration issues. Vehicle difficult to steer and accelerate or push the pedal to make the vehicle go forward which has caused pain and stress to my arm and leg. Returned vehicle back to dealer next business day and the service center denies any mechanical issue with vehicle upon their alleged vehicle diagnoatic although the service man agreed and confessed to both myslef and the salesman that the vehicle has an issue that is not showing on the diagnoatic based on the service guy driving the vehicle himself. The dealerahip refuses to acknowledge that they sold me a defective 2018 infiniti QX60 with 22,000 miles that feels to have transmission malfunction and steering malfunction. Vehicle sold to me faulty as a lemon and I a feel useless with a vehicle unsafe and uncomfortable to drive on the road.
