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.

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.
The transmission started shuttering in the 20-25 MPH range on 8/16/19. I took it in for service the next day and they replaced the transmission control valve on 8/23. The shuttering returned on 9/1 and now occurs between 20 to 60 MPH. This issue occurs during highway or street driving. Vehicle has 31k plus 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

Check engine light came on, poor idling and start up. Infiniti replaced pvc hose that was cracked, electical seat warmer issue was fixed, dvd electrical issue was denied under the claim warranty, and some sensors were replaced due to codes of lean fuel, and the technician noticed a ticking noise. The dealership told us to pick the car up, drive it and put more miles on it and bring it back in to file another claim for the ticking sound. Returned to file new claim and was told the engine needed to be replaced or timing chain should be replaced due to sludge in the engine even with proper maintenance [records submitted to dealership for warranty claim which was denied]. Passanger seat warmer had also gone out since our last visit, so they're fixing that electrical issue as well. [We were den
The windshield wipers quick working while in a rainstorm, more than once. They will stall out and then start again with up to a minute in between. The vehicle can be inspected before repairs. The safety of everyone in and outside the vehicle is compromised significantly, with visibility while driving on all roads and freeways. The vehicle is going into the dealer and there is a current recall affecting this vehicle. just not my VIN. No other inspections at this time. No warning signals of any kind. I am completely scared to drive it as it rains here often. The closest dealer is an hour away and I will have to drive it there. It has happened multiple times.
To whom this may concern.My vehicle middle console is completely out.My Radio no longer powers on.The A/C runs continuously however I’m unable to control any functions including my defrosts.therefore as the weather is getting colder I’m not able to activate the defrost so my front window fogs up clearing my view I’m able to utilize my wipers wisely.Last for not least my ABS Air bag light comes on and then continues to flash throughout my commutes.I’m not understanding why am I being told that I’ll be the one responsible for the bill..This situation was and clearly is nothing to do with my actions.
While driving, the vehicle often brakes and accelerates without my control. I've reported this issue before. My brakes are fine, according to the vehicle status.
Electrical systems failed (including ABS sensors). Breaks would not function (could not depress breaks). Wife and 6 yo son in car were lucky to not have been killed as car rolled onto busy road. Told by dealer that ABS system malfunctioned

I previously leased the qx50 and had no issues with that vehicle. We traded it in for more room and upgraded to the qx60. Brakes began squealing intermittently 6 months after leasing (leased brand new in june 2018) and took it to the dealership we leased it from. The squeal occurs when driving in reverse during application of the brakes. (my husband believes its an issue with the calipers.) we were told that there was nothing wrong with the brakes. At the second service department (serviced in july 2019 since the squealing has gotten much worse) I was handed a "service bulletin" saying that the noise is normal, and no service action is necessary (see attached bulletin for more details). I contacted the Infiniti consumer affairs group and filed a complaint. I was told today (7/26/19)

The driver seat on this vehicle is loose. It rocks when I drive. The vehicle is still under warranty; however, the manufacturer/dealership has not resolved this issue. I have reported several concerns regarding this vehicle.
I purchased this vehicle as a new vehicle. Shortly after purchasing the vechicle I began to hear rattling and noises. I took the vehicle to the dealership and they refused to offer assistance. The manufacturer did assist. They sent an inspector in to review the vehicle and they gave me compensation for my numerous service visits. However the rattling remains. Additionally the driver seat moves back and forth and mg gas tank is loose.
