I love my Infiniti. What I do not love is the CVT transmission. I bought the car (LOADED by the way) in April 2015. We have certainly had our issues along the way, but BY FAR, the biggest issue is the CVT transmission. It started after we had a transfer case FAILURE, but I won't go into the story. My car started to have a vibration around 30/40 MPH when trying to stay at a constant speed. If you do a lot of local driving like I do, you are in this constant speed mode a lot. The dealership says they cannot 'replicate' the problem. It gets worse, and since I drive a lot, I am in the dealer about once a month for an oil change. EVERY MONTH I complain. Every month, they cannot replicate it. The last time in, I was set to leave it for life. They got the service manager and he drove it with me in the car. He told me that he would contact their area rep and he would come sometime later in the month (August) and we would all go out for a drive, but that his opinion is the 'definitive' opinion. In other words, he would come out and tell me they cannot replicate it. So August has come and gone. My husband called the service manager three times and has not had the courtesy of a return call. So we have been doing research. This CVT engine has been a real problem for Nissan. There is a class action suit for the earlier version CVT . I think they may have changed some part of the CVT, but I am now deathly afraid to put my children in this car. Did I mention I have 65K miles...yes, I drive a lot and we travel. There is a rumor the new 2018 will have a different transmission. I have been reading online how Nissan North America is not at all helpful. As I said, love the car, but I cannot safely live with this transmission. If I hear 'replicate' one more time, I will scream. They use it for everything. I had a noise in the fan area for ac/heat. Can't replicate. MY HUSBAND took it in THE NEXT WEEK, and all of a sudden, there was a new something needed. My service advisor told me that Nissan doesn't care about customers, they just want to make a profit. How about that?

i've been reading up extensively on this suv and it seemed a little too good to be true. But now that i am an owner, i am a believer !! A very well built vehicle all around. The exterior is stylish as well as the interior. Great ride quality !! Comes with 3rd row seat, which when folded down give more than adequate cargo space. Comes loaded with technology inside and out. From headlights, to sound system, to automatic open and lift trunk gate, to back up camera and blind spot warning technology. It all equals a great buy and great driver experience.

It's a people-hauler, not a sports car

Bought it used at 20k miles, now more like 50k (several long roadies this year with the kids, typically I drive more like 12k/yr). I've read about peoples' issues with the screen, seats, etc., but have not experienced any of that. I did a lot of comparison shopping before buying. I looked at the MDX (smaller, less cargo, feels cheaper inside to me - and, I don't care about a "sporty" crossover), the Q7 (also smaller feeling to me - I'm 6'3", 3 bills, picture your favorite NFL center, was a little nicer inside but also more $, and I read a by lot of poor reliability reviews on the Audi, so it was out), and the BMW X5 (smaller, just generically didn't like the way it looked or felt, again for more $). In the end, the Infiniti was larger, smoother, more comfortable (my family of four has done 15 hours of roadie in it with our gear, and it was a breeze, very comfortable), well appointed (although I'm still figuring out the need to adjust the angle of the headlights, that seems a little bit overkill), gas mileage is decent (I tend towards ~19 in town/commuting, more like ~29-30 on the highway), and I do wish Nissan would get their tech act together, but that's not a show-stopper for me. So in the end it's a very competent people-hauler, feels good, looks good, plenty of room, and in this bracket of vehicle it was by comparison cheap. I would acknowledge that I haven't experienced any of the electrical or build problems you may see in other reviews, though - if I had, I might not be so happy.

Best choice in this category!

If you want a roomy, stylish, reliable, comfortable luxury SUV then this should be strongly considered. When we compared the QX60 to everything else it was an easy decision. No other choice gave us all of the above at this price point - and the lease deal on the 2015 model, after negotiation, was very reasonable. While I'd still choose this car again, there are(and maybe have been already) needed improvements. The front seats seem too hard for long hauls and you feel it! There is a very suttle engine vibration which I noticed the 2016 model had improved engine mounts to address. Other than that it is mostly solid. You can get much better mileage by paying attention to the driving modes - sport for around town and climbing and standard or economy for cruising. This car will get up and go if you ask it so I disagree with the critics regarding sluggish acceleration. It handles very well considering the size with decent steering and braking. It is very quiet at speed and mostly a smooth ride. Had a 2012 FX35 prior and it was just way to stiff and uncomfortable for most driving conditions. The Qx60 is a much softer ride!

I love my Infinti QX60

I am a former owner of two Acura MDXs and was looking for a change. I did not know much about the Infiniti other than a friend owned two Infiniti SUVs. This car is amazing!!! It handles well on all accounts. I haven't noticed much difference going from AWD to FWD. The steering is smooth. There is ampule seating and cargo space. I have absolutely no complaints with this car, other than my car did not come with navigation (I always used my smartphone anyway).
