2015 Infiniti QX60

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 INFINITI QX60. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SUN ROOF EXPLODED WITHOUT WARNING. THE SUN ROOF APPEARED TO BE PRESSURIZED TO THE POINT THAT IT BUCKLED OUTWARD WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN AND PARKED DUE TO THE FAILURE. A DEALER HAD NOT BEEN NOTIFIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS IMMEDIATELY NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,519.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 INFINITI QX60. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT HAD TO TURN OFF AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FAILURE PREVIOUSLY OCCURRED IN DECEMBER OF 2018. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (PEPE INFINITI, 300 CENTRAL AVE, WHITE PLAINS, NY 10606) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

ON 8/11/2018 AT APPROXIMATELY 1315 CST I WAS DRIVING IN THE RIGHT LANE OF I-10 W BY MILE MARKER 126 AT THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT WHEN THE SUNROOF EXPLODED. NO VEHICLES WERE WITHIN 200 FEET OF OUR VEHICLE (INFINITI 2015 QX60) IN DAYLIGHT AND CLEAR VISIBILITY , NO VISIBLE DEBRIS IN ROADWAY OR VEGETATION OVERGROWTH WAS PRESENT. THE ROADWAY WAS DRY AND IN GOOD CONDITION. SUNROOF WAS CLOSED AND HAD BEEN OPERATED LESS THAN TEN TIMES DURING THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 INFINITI QX60. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH WITH THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO JERK. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER (BOB MOORE INFINITI, 13000 N KELLEY AVE, OKLAHOMA CITY, OK 73131, (405) 748-8000) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,800.

THERE IS A VERY LOUD SPUTTERING FROM THE ENGINE WHEN I AM STOPPED. IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THE CAR IS GOING TO DIE. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARS. I TRIED REVVING THE ENGINE IN NEUTRAL TO SEE IF THAT WOULD RESOLVE IT, TO NO AVAIL. I JUST HAD MY STATE INSPECTION PERFORMED AT THE DEALER LESS THAN A WEEK PRIOR TO EVENT. NO ISSUES CAME UP AT THAT TIME.

AT APPROXIMATELY 40K MILES, THE DEALER REPLACED THE CVT BECAUSE THE CAR WAS "BUCKING" AND CREATED A CODE THAT THE MECHANICS COULD SEE. THAT FIXED THE PROBLEM UNTIL A FEW THOUSAND MILES LATER; THE CAR NOW JUTTERS AROUND 20-25MPH ON FLAT ROADS AND VERY PRONOUNCED ON INCLINES THEN PRODUCES A WOBBLE THROUGHOUT THE CAR AT SPEEDS ABOVE 25MPH. WHEN I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS, THE SYMPTOM STOPS. BOTH THE SERVICE MANAGER AND TRANSMISSION SPECIALIST TOOK THE CAR FOR A RIDE WITH ME AND EXPERIENCED THE SYMPTOMS. DEALER SAID THAT BECAUSE IT IS NOT PRODUCING A CODE, THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. ASKED THAT I DRIVE IT FOR A FEW MORE WEEKS TO SEE IF A CODE APPEARS. YESTERDAY, I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALER WITH THE SAME SYMPTOMS TO CHECK FOR A FAULT CODE; NONE WERE PRESENT. DEALER SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO WITHOUT A CODE AND SUGGESTED I CONTACT INFINITI CONSUMER AFFAIRS. I DID THAT AND WAS TOLD A REGIONAL REPRESENTATIVE WILL CONTACT ME IN 24 HOURS. IN ABOUT 3 HOURS, THAT TIME WILL HAVE PASSED. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE TRANSMISSION ISSUE WILL LEAVE MY WIFE AND YOUNG KIDS STRANDED. WE ARE DUE TO LEAVE TOMORROW FOR A VACATION 4 HOURS AWAY; I WILL BE RENTING AN SUV FOR OVER $500 FOR THE TRIP BECAUSE OF A LACK OF CONFIDENCE WITH THE VEHICLE.
