Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The 2019 QX80 forward emergency breaking system (feb) continuously engages the brakes without warning or an obstruction. Always while a railroad crossing is in site, sometimes when a redlight is near but (green) with no vehicles stopped at it. It has also done it on an open highway & interstate at speeds of 70 MPH with nothing around. This causes a very real chance of being rear-ended, or starteling the driver into crashing.”

NHTSA complaint #11322880, filed 2020-04, 25,000 miles

“2019 infinity QX80 limited 4 x 4--faulty automatic breaking system!!! Car would emit a beep beep beeeeeep and then the auto braking system would engage and cause the car to come to an abrupt stop. This occurred within the first 1000 miles of driving and continued for the duration of ownership. The car stopped on the freeway access road (35 MPH), state highway 6 (50 MPH) in rush hour traffic...., sienna parkway (45 MPH), 290 (65 MPH) and turning into driveway (5 MPH). It was inconsistent, and there were no obstructions (moving or sedentary) to cause the sensors to initiate the brakes. …”
