The contact owns a 2014 Infiniti QX60 Hybrid. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive power. Additionally, the Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) System warning light and the brake system failure warning light were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, no failure was found. The failure recurred. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V774000 (Engine and Engine Cooling, Hybrid Propulsion System). The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 80,700.

When accelerating the car jerks and shudders. I took it for an inspection and it was code P17F0, the mechanic said it was a safety recall because of this problem.

Consistent CVT shudder while accelerating from a "stop" through 25-30 MPH, and also sometimes while accelerating after moving and lasting through 40 plus MPH. This transmission shudder necessitates releasing the accelerator pedal, slowing down, sometimes selecting a different driving mode (i.e., SPORT, ECON, etc,). This has caused difficulty joining the traffic stream, especially at highway "on ramps" and when we have to accelerate quickly to join traffic even during "in town" driving. This initially started last summer and was inconsistent (about 110,000 miles on the vehicle). The last week it has happened repeatedly. According to my research, it is a very common safety problem with this vehicle.

WHILE DRIVING, ENGINE SUDDENLY STARTED SHAKING/JUDDERING. THEN WITHIN JUST FEW SECONDS, ENGINE WENT INTO EXTREME HIGH RPM ALONG WITH STRONG SMELL OF SMOKE COMING OUT OF VENT AND CAR STOPPED MOVING COMPLETELY AND ENGINE TURNED OFF BY ITSELF. WE COULD TURN ON IGNITION POWER AND ENGINE START, BUT TURNED OFF AS SOON AS PUT ON DRIVING OR REVERSE MODE. HAD TO TOWED IN TO LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHO RAN DIAGNOSTIC TEST WHICH REVEALED CVT CODE P2857 AND WAS TOLD THAT TRANSMISSION NEED TO REPLACED. NOTICED SEVERAL CONSUMER COMPLAINTS OVER NHTSA WEBSITE REGARDING DAMAGE TO TRANSMISSION REQUIRING REPLACEMENT IN 2014 INFINITI QX60 HYBRID VEHICLES AND NO SAFETY RECALLS/REPAIRS OFFERED BY INFINITI/NISSAN MANUFACTURE REGARDING SUCH MAJOR AND DANGEROUS POWERTRAIN/TRANSMISSION BREAKDOWN.

Seems like a transmission issue. The vehicle shudders often from a stop or when close to stopping. This was confirmed by an independent service center.

I was driving the Infiniti QX60 and it started smoking and shuddering several times. I had to pull it over and have it towed. I've already had to replace the entire transmission and the transfer 4x4 case and both were brand new. This is nerve wracking and unfair. Something needs to be done. It's being diagnosed but this seems to be constant with this 2014 Infiniti QX60 model. This car needs to be completed pulled and replaced for every dryer for everyone who has one.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan QX60. The contact stated that while the accelerator pedal was depressed, the engine revved and the RPM’S increased rapidly but the vehicle failed to respond properly.

The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The contact stated that the transmission assembly body was replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 112,000.

On Jan 11, 2023 my infiniti qx60 hybrid AWD that I purchased with Premium and Technology packages that includes forward Collison warning (FCW) and intelligent braking system (IBS) failed to work. I got no warning and/or my emergency brake was applied by these systems that I paid high dollars for. I had to apply the hard braking myself to try stop my car from collision but it was too late and ended up rear ending someone in multi car chain accident. I am extremely concern that the Infiniti QX60 FCW and IBS are just sales gimmick and does not work all or not at the right time when you need them. The weather was cloudy but no rain or anything that could have blocked the car sonar and radar. However none of these systems worked. Prior to the accident I have noticed that occasionally I get IBA switched off obstruction warning with nothing in front of the car. The same issues have been noticed on the infiniti's sister brand Nissan's Pathfinder, Rogue and others. Thankfully no one got hurt in my wreck. But I lost my car. I bought all these expensive systems to protect me and my family for these situations. However infiniti systems failed to work on mine. Not sure what options I have to pursue as there are others who have the same issues that I noticed. Hope no one lose their lives before Infiniti and/or nissan can fix this problem. I would also like to know what my options are against a car manufacturer that sold systems that does not work, while the average public buy these expensive systems hoping to be protected from the unforscene accidents that can happen to no fault of their own. Thanks and Regards
