What a dissapointment
I purchased a 2014 QX60 two months ago. . In the 8 weeks that Ive owned the car, it has been in for service 4 times due to design, manufacturing and workmanship issues from both Infiniti and the dealer. First is a harness issue on the windshield. Was fixed, then fell off again after the dealer left fingerprints all over my car. Then the driver side heat and heated seat did not work. It was supposedly fixed, but the day we got it back, the heat was still broken, the steering wheel was misaligned and have had issues with gears getting stuck when trying to shift. The topper was today, when the dealer picked up the car to fix the heat and the car literally sputtered out of my driveway.
A Piece of JUNK!
I owned this car for 8 months too long! I wish I had done my research. Upon purchasing this vehicle the rear differential went out at 50k miles. After replacing the rear differential, I noticed stuttering and poor acceleration in the transmission. I took it to the dealer and they updated the software, but it didn't cure the problem. Long story short, they ended up putting a new transmission in. I have had to replace and entire headlamp because the seals went bad and condensation in the lamp was causing a shortage in the bulb. After they fixed that headlight the driver headlamp suffered the same issue. Went back to the dealer for an oil change, but noticed my engine light on, they discovered that I needed a catalytic converter and a catalytic manifold system!!!!!! This was the WORST car I HAVE EVER OWNED! DO NOT BUY THIS CAR!!! That CVT transmission is garbage!!!!! I can go on and on about repairs and how god awful this car is. Just leave it at the dealership!!!

QX60 is not for everyone
Happy July 4th, 2024! Crossed 160,000 miles during the road trip in West Virginia this week. Runs great!. The longest road trip was from Maryland to Colorado a couple years ago. Over the last weekend being stuck in NYC traffic for hours, CVT seemed ran hotter and stuttered a few times after complete stop then go. Ordered an off-market oil cooler and will install soon. It is known Nissan CVT runs hot and the OEM oil cooler is not adequate at certain situations such as summer hot weather, stop/go traffic and long idling. At highway speed, this is not a problem. I change engine oil every 5,000 miles, change CVT fluid every 30,000 miles, flush cooling system every two years. On 3rd battery, 5th set of tires, third set of NGK spark plugs. We have a newer BMW but we are much more confident with QX60 for family road trip. June 2021 update. 118,000+ miles. 25.1 mpg. Our family road trip car to 30 states. I did all the engine oil changes and CVT transmission fluid changes. On the third sets of break pads, 2nd battery, 4th set of tires. Thinking spark plugs should be changed. It does it's job well. After driving a G35 for 13 years, it took a bit to get use to QX60 Hybrid. It is perfect when you drive the wife, 2 kids and their stuff. And you still have room to offer another family to come alone. Or like me, you do not remember when was your last speeding ticket. My last one was 17 years ago. I know we need a minivan but can not imagine being seen in one. QX60 fits the bill, plus the 4WD. I enjoy seeing 26 to 29 mpg routinely with regular gas. My record is a 38.1 mpg on a short 10 mile run. Having kids changed my perspective. I no long focus on 0-60 numbers. Someday, I will have my sports car with no child seats. I also got 17 mpg when try to match my G35 experience. Update, April 3rd, 2016. 27,000 + miles later, QX60 Hybrid runs well. Overall, I am at 25.5 mile/gallon, I did manual calculation for 12 month driving, recording miles at each gas fill up. I drive highway 70 miles during the week, and all local during weekends. Before QX60, we always take my wife's ML350. Now, kids just go to QX60, it is so comfortable and roomier. No issue, not a single one. I did oil and filter changes myself every 5000 miles with full synthetic. I do not go to dealer for services, other than tire rotation. My next car is either a 911, GT-R or Tesla Model S, keep on dreaming while driving +/- 5 miles within speed limit in my QX60.

As much time in the shop as at home
First high-end vehicle I could afford, but maybe I should have kept my Hyundai Tuscon. It cost half as much as the QX60 and had NO maintenance issues. This is a pretty car,but it's a rattle trap. It has been in the shop at least four times and they still cannot get rid of them. The airbag indicator light has been "fixed" 3 times. The roof rail was replaced because the rubber sealing strip kept coming out at highway speed or a washing. Obviously poor construction or engineering. The dealership has certainly tried to make it right, but all the fun and pride of ownership is ruined. Each repair visit took 5-10 days! I should have gone with the Acura MDX as my brother suggested. UPDATE: The dealership bought back the car if I would buy a new 2015 QX60. So I did. It has some squeaks and rattles also, but not nearly as bad. It has had two recalls which have been done. I really like this vehicle and hope I can keep it for at least 150,00+ miles.

Worst new car I've ever purchased
This car has been at the dealership for repairs more than my 2005 work vehicle. There have been problems with the gas hand jumping drastically; front passenger air bag sensor (several repairs); roof rails coming apart; and most recently the transmission had to be replaced.. I will be getting rid of this car as soon as I'm able to and never will buy any Nissan / Infiniti product ever again. This has been the worst new car purchase I've ever had. Thanks for a lot of inconvenience and unreliability at a considerably high cost.
