ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
When driving my car when I am at a certain speed whether 60 or above on the highway, when I start to decelerate the car starts to shake. It is often as I drive daily. The FCW is constantly coming on saying manufacturer failure check manual. Also since I cannot update my maps as the disc is no longer made I use a car play. The music always cuts out

Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2015 Infinity QX60. The contact discovered a mileage discrepancy after the purchase. The vehicle was a private sale. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 99,500. It was later discovered that the mileage on the title was 165,000. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for an oil change, and the contact was informed about the mileage discrepancy.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Because I bought the car used in June of this year, around July, the driver's and passenger's side airbag warning lights on the display panel started flashing, then disappeared after a few days. After August, they kept flashing and then stopped altogether. I took it to an Infiniti dealership for inspection, and the mechanic reported that the airbag sensors were malfunctioning and there was no connection between the airbags and the computer system platform, and that other problems might even be discovered during the repair process. This result seriously affects my driving safety, and I believe it's a quality issue with the car's performance, not a problem caused by driving a used car.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
As The vehicles drive it will intermittently lose power. This is continuous problem ever since 2 weeks after I purchased the vehicle. The power loss can last for 1 sec or most recently up to about 3 to 4 secs. The other day I had to pull over after the vehicle lost power and wait two minutes before starting back on the drive. When it loses power, the power steering goes out and if approaching a turn and/or a decent curve in the road, that can be very hazardous. I Believe this is a huge safety concern and many people have experienced the same malfunctions.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The car intermittently will not accelerate after being idle at stop signs etc. this has occurred on 3-5 instances in the last 4 months. All but one time when getting the vehicle later it didn't have any issues. The battery has been tested and is good, I cleaned the terminals and still had it occur. Upon reading an Infiniti forum it sounds like it is an intermittent alternator issue or electric module. This put my daughter in a stalled vehicle in an intersection several times after trying to troubleshoot issues to resolve it.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The alternator went bad and this was not picked up on multiple diagnosis inspections and therefore this caused continuous safety risks as they kept replacing parts that didn’t need to be fixed due to incorrect diagnosis codes being thrown. My vehicle stalled in the middle of the highway after multiple fixes/inspections due to this issue and the alternator shouldn’t even be going bad.

Car stops when turning a corner. When turning it back on, it moves slow and it might have power to move but then it goes slow. The battery will drain quickly and the it stops all together. It's like the engine just goes out.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The brakes will go to the floor on its own and won’t stop and almost rear ended vehicles or ran lights due to not being able to stop. The brake issue has been reproduced and noted on service records. I am a 100% disabled veteran that requires a mobility scooter for mobility and appointments. The other issue is the vehicle will loose power anywhere and anytime and has to be towed in by AAA to the Infiniti dealership every time and they say the issue cannot be reproduced and I have gone thru their complaint system and they are in the process of sending technicians to finally look at the vehicle. I am afraid if this car because the last time it happened it almost killed me because it just lost power and brakes on an Oklahoma interstate at around 70mph and had to coast to the right side service area to wait for AAA was almost rear ended twice in the process of getting to a safe area. My family and I are in danger anytime we drive this vehicle and have an extended Infiniti elite warranty thru manufacture. The vehicle in question is a 2015 Infiniti QX60 and was purchased in 10/16/2019 with 24555 miles on it and have had problems with car since day one. Please Please help we do not want to die. We have all recorded messages where Infiniti makes excuse after excuse after excuse to do anything about our safety.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Vehicle keeps shutting off mid drive have to jump it to get it started. It runs ok for 1-2 days then dies again. Tested battery and checked alternator to no avail. The ac cooling fan goes up and down and draws a ton of power from the vehicle. All local mechanics can’t figure it out.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Shuddering, shaking & skipping while driving. It’s a nightmare. The car (QX60- 2015) can’t go over 20 miles without “jumping” on me. I am fearing for my safety. It’s only a bulletin by Infiniti and not a recall. This is unacceptable.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE BACK HATCH DOOR DOES NOT ALWAYS OPEN WHEN EITHER USING THE CAR FAUB, BUTTON IN THE INTERIOR OR MANUALLY ON THE HATCH ITSELF. IT WILL PARTIALLY OPEN AND THEN IT WILL BEEP AND TRY AND CLOSE ON ITS OWN, MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO EITHER PUT SOMETHING IN OR TAKE OUT OF THE BACK OF CAR WITHOUT IT CLOSING ON YOUR HEAD BECAUSE THE SENSOR DOES NOT ALERT THAT I AM THERE. THEN TO CLOSE THE HATCH I HAVE TO FORCE IT DOWN BECAUSE THE CLOSE BUTTON ON THE HATCH WILL NOT WORK...IT'S BEEN VERY FRUSTRATING BECAUSE IT'S BEEN HAPPENING FOR MONTHS NOW. SOMETIMES IT OPENS WHEN PROMPTED HOWEVER THE MAJORITY OF THE TIMES IT DOES NOT!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
DRIVER ASSISTANCE PKG AND AROUND VIEW MONITOR WITH MOD DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE AFTER COLLISION REPAIR. THE SUV WAS REPAIRED WITH GENUINE INFINITI PARTS. AFTER THE REPAIR WAS COMPLETED, THE DRIVER ASSISTANCE PACKAGE OPTIONS AND THE MOVING OBJECT DETECTION AT THE FRONT NO LONGER WORKS. IT HAS BEEN AT THE COLLISION CENTER AND INFINITI DEALERSHIP FOR OVER 2 MONTHS AND THEY CAN NOT FIGURE OUT THE CAUSE OF THE MALFUNCTION. ALL THE INFINITI DEALERSHIP HAS DONE WAS SAID THE COMPUTER DOES NOT SHOW AN ERROR. I HAVE ASKED INFINITI TO CALL IN AN EXPERT ENGINEER IF THEY DO NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. IF IT IS A FAULTY SYSTEM, INFINITI NEEDS TO DISCLOSE THAT TO THE PUBLIC BECAUSE I AM SURE THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS HAD A FRONT COLLISION IN A QX60. MANY PEOPLE MAY NOT EVEN KNOW THAT THIS FEATURE DOES NOT WORK ON THEIR VEHICLE ANY LONGER. IF THERE IS A FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM, THEN INFINITI SHOULD ALSO DISCLOSE THAT INSTEAD OF TRYING TO GET AWAY WITH NOT FIXING THE ISSUES. AS WE EXPECT THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY TO KEEP US SAFE, WE ALSO EXPECT OUR DIVER ASSISTANCE PACKAGE TO WORK PROPERLY AS WELL. *BF *BF

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I WAS BCKNG OUT OF A PKNG SPOT BETWEEN 2 CARS AND THE BACK UP CAMERA SHOWED LOTS OF SPACE. I MADE SURE THE RIGHT OF MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT HIT PARKED CARS I WAS CLEAR ON THE LEFT. I BACKED UP A FEW INCHES AND HEARD GLASS BREAK AND TAPPED THE BEIGE BRICK WALL. UNTIL IMPACT THE SENSORS DID NOT LIGHT UP OR BEEP AT ALL. AT THE POINT OF IMPACT IT WAS FRENZY BEEPING. A WITNESS SAW THE INCIDENT AND WE WALKED BEHIND THE VEHICLE TO SEE DAMAGE. BECAUSE THE REAR LIGHTS AND BRAKE LIGHTS STICK OUT FURTHER THAN THE BUMPER THE LIGHTS ARE DAMAGED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY, TMO CAME OUT TO LOOK AT MY ISSUE. HE TESTED THE BACK UP WITH AN EMPLOYEE STANDING BEHIND THE SAME SENSOR. IT DID IT'S JOB AND STARTED BEEPING AT APPROX A FT. FROM THE EMPLOYEE WHO WAS WEARING DARK UNIFORM CLOTHES. I WAS DISMISSED THAT THEY COULDN'T TEST THE SENSOR BECAUSE IT WAS DAMAGED (WHY WOULD AN EXECUTIVE PUT AN EMPLOYEE BEHIND THE SAME "DAMAGED" SENSOR THAT WORKED? I ASKED TMO OK HUMOR ME AND BACK INTO THAT BEIGE WALL OVER THERE - HE SAID TO GET IN,PASSENGER. HE PROCEEDED TO BACK INTO THE WALL, NEITHER LIGHTS NOR SENSOR LIGHT UP OR BEEPED. I LOOKED AT THE CAMERA LOOKED LIKE LOTS OF ROOM LEFT. I TOLD HIM TO KEEP GOING - SEE HOW CLOSE YOU CAN GET. HIS ANSWER WAS NO, MAYBE YOUR RIGHT IT DOESN'T DETECT LIGHT COLOR OBJECTS. CALL CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND TELL THEM. CONSUMER AFFAIRS BRANDON CALLED TODAY, HE SAID TO HOLD WHILE HE CALLED THE DEALER TO GET AN INTERNAL SPECIALIST SCHEDULED TO CHECK OUT THE SENSOR WITH THE SERVICE DEPT. BRANDON GOT BACK ON THE LINE AND SAID SINCE IT WAS A COLLISION NO WAY TO CHECK THE SENSORS. WELL, I HAVE A DRIVERS SENSORS THAT WASN'T AFFECTED TEST THAT ONE. THEY DECLINED. MY OWN FAMILY TESTING SHOWS THE SENSORS DO NOT DETECT A BEIGE OR WHITE COLOR UNTIL THE POINT OF IMPACT. I WAS TOLD NOT TO RELY ON ELECTRICAL THEY ARE AIDS ONLY AND COULD FAIL. BEWARE OF PEOPLE IN BEIGE OR WHITE.
