“I had my infinity 2016 qx 80 for 6 months and the breaks went out to the floor. I was only going over a speed hump, luckily. I pulled over and the caliper was against the inside of the rim. I was told the pin fell out. Very dangerous!”
NHTSA complaint #11363222, filed 2020-10, 50,200 miles“We have had several issues with our vehicle. It has been to the dealership 3 times since november 20, 2019. The first time we took the vehicle into the dealership, it was due to it bogging down. This happened when the vehicle was in motion and in both the city and interstate. The worst time, was when we were on the interstate driving around 70 miles an hour and went to accelerate to pass a vehicle. The vehicle bogged down and would not accelerate. It was taken to the dealership and they could not duplicate the problem. …”
