I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY INFINITI QX60 SINCE I PURCHASED IT 09/2014. THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH IT ACCELERATING. I WOULD PRESS ON THE GAS AND IT WOULDN'T GIVE ME THE ACELLERATION THAT I WOULD EXPECT FROM THIS CAR... IT IS VERY SLUGGISH. I HAVE TOLD THIS TO THE DEALERSHIP ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS SINCE 2014. EVERY TIME THEY CHECKED IT, THEY SAID THERE WASN'T A PROBLEM. ONE TIME, I RECEIVED THE SAME CAR AS A LOANER CAR WHILE THEY WORKED ON MY CAR, AND I COULD CLEARLY SEE THAT THERE WAS A DIFFERENCE IN THE WAY THAT CAR DROVE VERSUS MINE. THE LOANER CAR DROVE BETTER THAN MY CAR. SO, TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT, I DROPPED MY CAR OFF AT THE DEALERSHIP IN MID-MAY (LAST MONTH) TO BE LOOKED AT. THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH MY CAR (JUDDER ISSUE) AND THEY HAD MY CAR FOR A WEEK. DURING THAT TIME, I WENT ONLINE AND FOUND OTHERS HAD THE SAME COMPLAINTS. ONE PERSON SAID THAT THEIR DEALERSHIP ENDED UP PURCHASING THEIR CAR BACK FROM THEM/ REFUNDED THEIR MONEY BECAUSE THE JUDDER ISSUE WASN'T RESOLVED. I ALSO SPOKE TO A REGIONAL SPECIALIST AT INFINITI AND HAVE A CASE # OF CASE # 22529177. I AM GOING TO CONTACT THE REGIONAL SPECIALIST AGAIN BECAUSE THIS ISSUE ISN'T RESOLVED BUT THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT INFINITI SELLS INFERIOR CARS. ANOTHER ISSUE IS THE RUBBER MOLDING ON THE PASSENGER RIGHT DOOR IS COMING OFF AND PREVENTING ME FROM CLOSING THE DOOR AND WHEN SOMEONE IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, WITH THEIR SEATBELT IS ON, THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON. IM SCARED THAT MY CAR WILL JUST DIE ON ME AS I'M DRIVING IT. WITH ALL THE THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING WITH AUTOMOBILES THESE DAYS, I DO NOT ANT TO FALL VICTIM TO ANY OF THESE ISSUES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 INFINITI QX60. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG OFF WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V244000 (AIR BAGS). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

2014 QX 60 ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS (DEC 18, 2015 AND JAN 2ND,2016, ROUGHLY 2 WEEKS APART ) THE TOP BOLTS ON THE FRONT BREAK CALIPERS FELL OFF CAUSING THE CALIPER TO TILT OFF THE ROTOR. IN THE FIRST INSTANCE, THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE WHEEL STARTED MAKING SOME GRINDING NOISES WHILE DRIVING, AS IF THE BREAK PADS WERE LOW. THE NOISE STARTED OFF A BEING VERY LIGHT WHEN BREAKING, THEN CONTINUOUS GRINDING. IT WAS NOT UNTIL FURTHER INSPECTION THAT WE REALIZED THAT THE ENTIRE CALIPER FALLEN FORWARD AND WAS RUBBING ONTO THE INTERIOR OF THE WHEEL RIM. WE MADE THE REPAIR AND REPLACED THE BOLT AND ASSUMED IT WAS A FLUKE AND JUST ONE OF THOSE RANDOM THINGS. TWO WEEKS LATER, WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WITH MY FAMILY IN SAN DIEGO, WE STARTED TO HEAR THE SAME NOISE AGAIN. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION WE DISCOVERED THAT THE OTHER FRONT CALIPER HAD ALSO BECOME DISENGAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE NEAREST INIFINTI DEALER FOR INSPECTION. IT WAS A SATURDAY EVENING AND WAS NOT TILL TUESDAY MORNING WHEN THEIR SERVICE DEPT REPLACED THE MISSING BOLT AND RETURNED THE VEHICLE. AFTER THE SECOND INCIDENT, I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE ONLINE TO DISCOVER THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ISSUED ON THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WE EXPERIENCED, WITH THE CALIPER BOLTS NOT BEING TORQUED ON DURING THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS. HOWEVER AFTER DISCUSSING WITH THE DEALER AND INFINITI, I WAS TOLD THE RECALL DID NOT INCLUDE THE MANUFACTURING DATE OF MY VEHICLE. IN THE FIRST INSTANCE THE BREAK PADS WERE STILL INTACT WITH THE CALIPER WHEN IT SHIFTED FORWARD OFF THE ROTOR. IN THE SECOND INSTANCE THE BREAK PADS ACTUALLY SLIPPED OFF THE CALIPER. PHOTO ATTACHED.
