2024 INFINITI QX60 Complaints
The liftgate is not merely a matter of inconvenience. Its repeated failure directly interferes with my ability to enter, exit, and safely use the vehicle. I am concerned that the liftgate could also fail during an emergency or close, latch, or operate unpredictably. Right after we first bought the vehicle, we brought it in due to the hatch not opening, approx. Aug. 2024. They said to shove a screwdriver into the hatch to get it working again. It's also listed in their vehicle booklet that is given to you when you buy the SUV. That doesn't mean there is a recall but it's pretty darn close. They want me to wiggle into the back of the vehicle and jam a screwdriver into who knows where. I would love to see them do this without upper body strength and non-working legs. The vehicle has also experienced additional problems, including malfunctioning alarms, electrical issues, and other recurring defects. I have something called vehicle assist, it doesn't work. Alarms are supposed to go off if you leave your lane and pull you back into your original lane. No, you drift accross three lanes. Some problems have returned after attempted repairs. The vehicle has reportedly been presented for repair approximately three times and has been unavailable or out of service for an extraordinary amount of time, approximately 300 plus days in total. Today my caretaker was to take me to a VA and to the pharmacy to get my meds.;
2024 NISSAN PATHFINDER Complaints
I am submitting this complaint regarding a safety concern involving my 2024 Nissan Pathfinder, which has approximately 19,000 miles on the vehicle. The rear brake pads were found to be excessively worn and required replacement at only 19,000 miles. I consider this premature brake-pad wear to be a significant safety concern given the relatively low mileage and age of the vehicle. The braking system is a critical safety component, and I would not expect the rear brake pads on a relatively new 2024 vehicle with only 19,000 miles to require replacement due to excessive wear. Premature or abnormal brake-pad wear could potentially reduce braking performance, increase stopping distances, cause uneven braking, damage other brake components, or create an unsafe condition if the driver is unaware of the extent of the wear. I am concerned that this may not be an isolated maintenance issue but could potentially indicate a defect or problem with the vehicle's braking system, including the rear brake components, brake calipers, electronic parking brake system, or another component that may be causing abnormal or accelerated brake-pad wear. I am requesting that this complaint be documented and investigated to determine whether other 2024 Nissan Pathfinder owners have experienced similar premature rear brake-pad wear and whether there is a defect or safety-related issue affecting the rear braking system. Vehicle: 2024 Nissan Pathfinder Mileage: Approximately 19,000 miles Safety Component: Rear braking system/rear brake pads Issue: Premature/excessive rear brake-pad wear requiring replacement at approximately 19,000 miles. I believe this issue warrants investigation because brake-system reliability is directly related to vehicle safety, and premature wear at such low mileage is concerning for a relatively new vehicle.;
