“4 days after completing scheduled maintenance at the Infiniti dealership the vehicle exhibited difficulty accelerating and engaging in the gears while driving on the highway. If I had to slow down and then tried to accelerate, the car would not respond. I had to remove my foot from the gas pedal and reengage the accelerator to make the car pick up speed. I did reach my destination but upon arrival could not get the car to accelerate beyond 10-15 MPH. I had to have the car towed from tallahassee, fl. Back to tampa, fl. Infiniti dealership. …”
NHTSA complaint #11206026, filed 2019-05, 65,000 miles“At approximately 40k miles, the dealer replaced the CVT because the car was bucking and created a code that the mechanics could see. That fixed the problem until a few thousand miles later; the car now jutters around 20-25mph on flat roads and very pronounced on inclines then produces a wobble throughout the car at speeds above 25mph. When I take my foot off the gas, the symptom stops. Both the service manager and transmission specialist took the car for a ride with me and experienced the symptoms. Dealer said that because it is not producing a code, there is nothing they can do. …”
NHTSA complaint #11075418, filed 2018-02, 40,000 miles“Transmissions feels like it is 'slipping' when driving slow around 20-25 MPH/1000-1500 rpms. Makes car shudder/shake like it's running out of gas. Took to Infiniti delearship - they could not replicate the issue and get a code. Was told this was just how the CVT transmission feels. Reprogrammed transmission - car still does it. Getting worse. Around 58k miles on car.”
NHTSA complaint #11258936, filed 2019-09, 58,000 miles“Just purchased on 3/10/19 infinity QX60 from car max with 25,727 miles at purchase and on 3/12 vehicle shutters and jerks vigorously at high and low speeds in motion on city street and while turning.”
NHTSA complaint #11186345, filed 2019-03, 25,750 miles“First off there is a safety bulletin already released. And I know 2 others who own this vehicle who have the exact same issues. It's time to actually take care of your clients and fox the drive train issue. Where when driving and turning especially at slow speeds there is a violent vibration that comes from the front of the vehicle. Please take care of your customers. The dealership originally told us this issue would be replaced under recall. Then said sorry it's just a bulletin now. But it will turn into a recall before the winter. And thai was last year. …”
