Transmission failure. The CVT transmission did not engage in gear while driving (on the highway!) I was able to drive in "limp mode" to reputable mechanic in the area. The mechanic flushed the CVT fluid, changed the filters and checked all the electronic codes, but the problem persists. The vehicle will require a new transmission or a rebuild.

Took the vehicle in to the dealership for an oil change and state inspection. They informed us of the front lower control arms bushings are cracked, torn and need to be replaced. The vehicle is 5 years old with 41,000 miles. I asked the dealership why they would be this way and the service writer stated that it is just the quality of the bushings. Why are the bushings that worn on a vehicle that drives 8,000 miles per year, garage kept and all highway miles?

The Rear right differential side seal failed under 40K miles and car was out of manufacturer warranty and I had to pay to get the seal and bearing replaced. I cannot believe a seal and bearing need to be rep[laced withing 40K miles. I had to replace a seal on the Transfer case last year when the car was still under manufacturer's warranty. My guess is that poor quality of the seals/bearings or improper installation procedures could have led to these early failures and surely warrants an investigation.

Cvt transmission failing, started @ 113000 miles, trying to work with Infiniti consumer affairs, they have required me to bring the car into their shop for diag. When i purchased the vehicle 2/26/2022, include with the car was an extended warranty for 6 years unlimited miles. They dated the contract back to the manufacturer date in 1/31/2019 and expired on 1/31/2025. I’ve opened a case with Infiniti USA case# 56866430. I feel they have never fixed their CVT transmission issue and it causing consumer undue cost and stress.

My car started making a whining noise and leaking oil simultaneously. After taking it to be looked at, there is a broken seal due in improper assembly on the right side drive shaft. If it remains broken, not fixed, I risk a transmission failure. Multiple "Technical Serve Bulletins" have been released by Infiniti since 2017 (my car is a 2019 and was purchased certified pre-owned), but they will not issue a recall because this isn't considered a safety issue. Losing transmission function on the highway would create a huge safety concern.

The car engine suddenly shut off itself while I am driving in the middle of the road. The engine and the collision sensor lights were on, I had to fully stop the car and put it into "P" then restart the engine in order to go again. It was a heavy snowing day, I drove pretty slow about 20- 30 mph. It happened twice that day and one of the times I was stopped at the middle of an intersection. There were no warning lamps or any other symptoms at all, and my car still has fuel which the dealer can prove. It's extremely dangerous because my car just suddenly has to stop especially it was a snowing day. I got the car tolled to an Infiniti dealer the next day, they ran a check and did a test drive (was not snowing the next day) but they couldn't duplicate the problem, so they cannot fix anything. Contacted Infiniti Cooperate but they said if the dealer couldn't duplicate the problem, they cannot do anything about it.

Government / agencyIndexed Oct 8, 2026Source-linkedVerify source — NHTSA complaint #11700786

My 2019 Infiniti QX60 (VIN [XXX] ) experienced a sudden transmission failure at 99,995 miles. The vehicle would no longer shift into gear and became undriveable. The dealer found diagnostic code P2813 – Pressure Control Solenoid G, indicating internal transmission failure. The repair estimate is 8,369.87. This appears to be part of a known pattern of CVT failures affecting Infiniti/Nissan vehicles, including the QX60. Earlier models (2015–2018) had warranty extensions for similar CVT defects. This failure occurred without warning and poses a major safety hazard, as the vehicle could not accelerate or be driven. My wife was pulling out of the parking area after picking up my [XXX] and as soon as she pulled out and shifted it to drive it would not. Ended up with a vehicle almost hitting them, which was a close call. After shifting it back-and-forth it finally went into gear and took it straight to the service center. The service center even said that they had to tow it into the garage because it would not go into gear any longer. I am requesting NHTSA investigate whether this transmission defect affects 2019 and later QX60 models and whether a recall or manufacturer remedy is warranted.

At the end of XXX I noticed that my 2019 Infiniti QX60 was starting to jerk when I accelerated. At first it was an intermittent jerking but on or about XXX it was happening more often. I took my vehicle in that day to get the oil changed and mentioned the problem to the manager at the shop. When the mechanic did a scanned diagnostic test on it he said it was a fuel pump problem and he recommended I get the fuel pump replaced. The shop completed the fuel pump replacement on XXX but when I picked up the vehicle it was still jerking. I called the shop when I got home and conveyed that the problem still existed. I took the vehicle back to the shop on XXX and after sharing this information with the manager and mechanic: [XXX] the manager called me back later in the day and said the error codes from the YouTube video I shared with them surprisingly show up on the next diagnostic scan! I picked up my vehicle that afternoon but couldn’t speak to either one of them because they left before I arrived. They asked me to wait an hour before picking up the vehicle so “the fluid could thicken up”! I have since emailed the manager about them guaranteeing their work because they misdiagnosed the problem. I paid approximately $1125 to replace the fuel pump and my CVT transmission went out when I was driving home after picking up the vehicle on XXX.I have about 142K+ miles on the vehicle. I get my oil changed when directed but have dealt with an oil leak in the past and had an electrical problem about six months ago.

Government / agencyIndexed Oct 8, 2026Source-linkedVerify source — NHTSA complaint #11718924

COMPONENT/SYSTEM FAILURE: Timing chain and timing chain tensioner/guide assembly failure. The timing chain has stretched prematurely, causing the vehicle to fail to start, loss of acceleration response, check engine light illumination, and audible rattling noise from the engine compartment. The failed components are available for inspection upon request at the dealership. SAFETY RISK: The vehicle would not accelerate when the gas pedal was pressed, creating a dangerous situation where the vehicle could not respond to driver input. This poses a serious safety risk in traffic, highway merging, or emergency evasive situations. Additionally, the failure to start leaves occupants stranded without warning. DEALER CONFIRMATION: The problem has been diagnosed and confirmed by an authorized Infiniti dealer. The dealer determined the cause is timing chain stretching and has quoted $6,500 for repair, which includes timing chain, tensioners, and guides replacement. PRIOR WARNINGS: Approximately one week prior to complete failure, the vehicle began exhibiting a rattling noise from the engine. The check engine light illuminated. Shortly after, the vehicle would not start and would not accelerate when the gas pedal was pressed. KNOWN DEFECT: This is a documented defect. Infiniti Technical Service Bulletin ITB19-027a addresses timing chain-related diagnostic trouble codes on 2017-2024 QX60 vehicles with the VQ35DD engine. The timing chain tensioner and guide failure on VQ-series engines is a well-documented premature wear issue affecting vehicles well before expected service life. At 80,000 miles, this failure is premature and indicative of a design or manufacturing defect, not normal wear. REQUEST: I am requesting NHTSA investigate this safety defect and consider requiring a recall for affected Infiniti QX60 vehicles. Nissan/Infiniti corporate has declined goodwill assistance despite the existence of TSBs acknowledging the issue.
