“Hello, I purchased my Infiniti Q60 Red Sport brand new in 2028. About a year after that I started to have electrical issues with the car. I've brought it in to the Infiniti dealer in Valencia, CA numerous times during the warranty period (and a few times out of the warranty period), to have these issues addressed. Some were resolved and some were not. So In the past 4-5 years I've brought my vehicle in about 15 times or more to be fixed. The latest issue is a safety problem. …”

NHTSA complaint #11629914, filed 2024-12

“I own an Infiniti with fewer than 45,000 miles on it. Recently, the airbag warning light illuminated, so I brought the vehicle to an Infiniti dealership for diagnosis. I was informed that the issue is a known problem involving the seat frame and that the recommended repair is replacement of the seat frame. I was then quoted approximately $11,000 for the repair. I purchased this vehicle less than a year ago and am extremely concerned that a component critical to the airbag system has failed at such low mileage. …”

“In-dash airbag light stays on as well as the passenger side airbag. Took the vehicle to Infiniti dealership who recommended to change the OCS Unit and OCS Sensor which costs over $18,000+. Of course, the vehicle in question is not in warranty and we are not going to pay for the repair due to the fact cost to repair is equivalent to the value of the vehicle. This is a safety hazard and have looked at Infiniti forums with my model having the same issue. A disaster waiting to happen with airbag not deploying when front passenger is sitting there in case of an accident. …”

“The contact owns a 2018 Infiniti Q60. While driving approximately 60 MPH, the contact drove over black ice and lost control of the vehicle. The vehicle struck the median on the highway. None of the frontal or side air bags deployed. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed by the insurance company to a body shop. The contact was taken to the hospital by a family relative, treated for his injuries, and released. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. …”
