Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The electric controlled coupling failed and as a result, the AWD failed. There is vibration when turning and driving 25 mph. The grinding noise remained after I got new brakes and I was told it’s from the coupling trying to power the AWD. I took my 2016 QX60 to the dealer and also to a foreign car auto shop and they both confirmed it needs to be replaced. When the coupling is unplugged, the noise is not present.”
NHTSA complaint #11629128, filed 2024-12“The display and audio/video control keeps resetting which limits the functioning of the display, climate and Audio/Video equipment, and the rear camera.”
