NHTSA Safety & Reliability: Infiniti Qx60 2025
Safety Score:
3.0 / 5.0The 2025 Infiniti QX60 has one reported recall concerning potential failure of front brake caliper assemblies, which could lead to a loss of braking function and increase crash risk. Consumer complaints highlight several recurring issues including engine vibrations, particularly with the VC-Turbo engine, potential fuel pump failures, premature wear of rear brakes and rotors, issues with the active noise cancellation system causing cabin vibrations, spontaneous door locking with keys inside, sunroof shattering, and concerns about vehicle shaking/swaying at higher speeds. Some owners report that dealerships are attributing these issues to road conditions or are unable to fully resolve them under warranty, leading to dissatisfaction and safety concerns.
