2017 Infiniti QX60 Vehicle speed control Problems

“When starting up after a complete stop, the vehicle will surge. It also happens when you put the car into reverse. The dealership stated they had experienced the same problem and had to replace the transmission. Drove our vehicle in the parking lot but could not recreate the problem so would not do anything further. I feel this is a safety risk. This has happened on numerous occasions.”

“I accelerated the gas pedal all the way down while merging to the carpool lane on highway; I took the foot pressure off after merging the lane but car was kept on accelerating. I had to apply the brake several time during 15-20 seconds of this experience to bring the high acceleration down to normal. I took it to ontario california Infiniti dealership on aug 8, 2020 and left the vehicle there for thorough checkup. I received a call on aug 10, 2020 from dealership service representative that they could not reproduce the issue.”

“2 times now in the last few weeks while using adaptive cruise control the car decided to take off. I watched the cruise speed go from 70 to 80 without any input and the car rocketed to 100 miles and hour. Braking would slow it down but as soon as I took my foot off the brake it would speed up. I tried turning the cruise control off and that didn't stop it. I cycled it on and off about 5 times but it kept speeding up. My wife told me to turn the cruise back on and leave it and that is when it finally stopped. …”

“Unexplained acceleration caused vehicle to exceed posted speed limit and driver's desired speed. On a city street at approx 7pm I was increasing speed after sitting at a stop light, I slowly started to accelerate, I felt a jolt & vehicle suddenly picked up speed. Not knowing why this was happening I repeatedly pushed the cancel button on the steering wheel & pushed the brake pedal. Vehicle continued to pick-up speed when I stopped pushing brake pedal. I came to a complete stop & vehicle went to picking up quick speed without me pushing accelerator pedal. …”

“The engine shut down while driving. There where no warning lights. We where told that the car had a faulty ABS sensor and that caused the car to go into failsafe mode. This is the second time this had happened in 10 months.”
