Used 2017 INFINITI QX80 Consumer Reviews
No repairs needed since new.
The window sticker was just below $90,000, so it was not inexpensive. The handling and traction in northern NY is as good as it gets. The ride quality is a little rough, but in return you get excellent road handling for a 6000 lb. vehicle. Nothing has ever needed repair now up to 37,000 miles. We replaced the windshield wipers. Bought 4 new tires at 34,999 miles, $1,200. We only get about 17 MPG on highway at 70 MPH, and 15 MPG around our rural area. The drivers controls are rather odd to a person used to American cars like us, making it quite difficult to figure things out like how to turn on the windshield wipers, use the navigation aid system, etc. Some of the controls, like the heat/air controls for the seats, are very hard to read. The port for a thumb drive is located in a compartment too short , requiring a special short length thumb drive. The rear storage with the 3rd row seats down is not flat. To use the tow hitch, you must remove a plastic panel, leaving an extremely ungainly gaping hole. The seat upholstery is the best we have seen and all the interior roof, side, pillars etc. are covered in what appears to be suede leather.Very nice, very classy. The comfort of long trips (we drive 1300 miles to Florida) is outstanding, one of the best we ever experienced. Highway driving is effortless and very quiet. Overall, we love this SUV and would definitely buy another QX 80 in a couple more years. This is only our second foreign car and we are very positively impressed.

2 years in and the problems started QX80 Limited
After 2 years and 30K miles we started having engine noise. It sounded like the valve train was ticking. We ended up bringing the vehicle back at 50K and they scoped the number 7 cylinder and found no scarring. The noise kept getting louder. We went back a third time after the factory warranty had past and they found scarring and replaced the engine only after the original warranty ended. Thank goodness we purchased Certified at 12K and added the elite wrap protection. At 87000 we needed a new air compressor, seat heater elements, running board approach lights. We are now selling as our wrap coverage is due to end.

Infinity 2016 QX80 depreciation
Car is great overall however the Infinity QX80 does not hold its value and expect To take a huge loss if you plan on selling you're used QX80. I bought mine a little over 1-year ago with a sticker price of 81K and now 1-year later it's valued at 48K, a 30K + drop in 1-year. I will never buy a Infinity again

Much better
After getting the dealer to make the major repairs needed for my vehicle, I’m please with the vehicle. I’ve had it for about a year now and so far it’s done well. I will be taking it out on the highway this summer so we’ll see how it goes.

Qx80 backup camera Disappointment
My review is negative because of the car quality not the overall company because I had a great experience with the local dealer here. I'm very disappointed with the QX80 2018: Quality of the backup camera and the 360 degrees cameras, this is by far the worst quality of cameras in the car market! It looks like a camera from 10 years ago. The car also love gas too much, I'm averaging 11 miles in the city and 13.5 in the highway, I had big engine cars all my life and this car is the worst in that department. You would expect when you pay over 75k for a car with normal backup camera, that's my biggest complaint with the car!!! At night you can’t even see anything.
