2017 Infiniti QX60

I am writing to bring to your attention a serious safety issue I experienced with my Infiniti QX60, which I believe warrants immediate investigation and action. On 3/15/25, during a family trip for spring break, I was driving my 2017 Infiniti QX60 at approximately 75 mph on the highway when the sunroof suddenly exploded without warning. The sound was akin to gunfire, and the shock of the incident left my family and me deeply shaken. The explosion occurred without any prior impact or debris hitting the vehicle, and there were no adverse weather conditions that could have contributed to the incident. Fortunately, no one was injured, but the situation could have been far worse had the glass shattered inward or caused a loss of vehicle control. This incident caused significant inconvenience and financial burden. I was 350 miles from home and had to divert to the nearest town to assess the damage and determine how to proceed. Since the incident occurred on a Saturday, no repairs could be made until the following Monday, leaving my family stranded and forcing us to incur additional expenses for lodging, meals, and alternate transportation to reach our destination, which was still 150 miles away. Upon researching this issue, I discovered numerous reports from other Infiniti QX60 owners who have experienced similar spontaneous sunroof explosions. Despite the apparent frequency of these incidents, there has been no indication of a recall or any corrective action from the manufacturer. This is deeply concerning, as it poses a significant safety risk to drivers, passengers, and others on the road. I urge the NHTS to investigate this matter thoroughly and consider mandating a recall or other corrective measures to address this defect in Infiniti QX60 vehicles. Additionally, I hope that steps can be taken to ensure that current and future owners are protected from this potentially dangerous issue. Please let me know if there is any additional information needed.

COMPONENTS :LATCHES/LOCK Vehicle: 2017 Infiniti Qx60 Date of incident: 6/16/2022/ Mileage 80,000 Safety concern: in the event of a crash or fire, a jammed door could delay response time and cause severe injury or death. I was placing my grandchild in the rear passenger seating area when I closed the door, drove to the local market and was unable to open the door from the inside of the cabin or from the outside. I tried several times to use the unlock button and the door still did not open. No dashboard warnings came on before or after the failure. I took the vehicle to the dealership, they were also UNABLE to open the door after several attempts and was told by the mechanic that the door actuator was defective and to fix the problem would cause SEVERE damage to in the inside of the door. I then contacted the manufacturer and was told they have not heard of this issue and no active recalls are listed for my concern.

MY CAR HAS HAD ISSUES FROM THE DAY I GOT IT WHICH HAVE GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AND NOW I DON'T FEEL SAFE AND I'M RELUCTANT TO DRIVE IT LET ALONE MAKE THE PAYMENT FOR IT AFTER TAKING IT TO THE DEALER THREE TIMES EXPLAINING THE ISSUE AND LIGHTS THAT COME IN. I HAVE HAD BAD SMELL COMING FROM IT AND AFTER THE THIRD TIME TODAY BEING AT DEALE AND GETTING A LOANER CAR THAT IS NOT EVEN SEMI COMPARABLE TO MY CAR AS I HAVE AN INFINITY QX 60 AND THEY HAVE GIVEN ME A TINY TINY Q30 OR QX AND REFUSED TO GIVE ME A CAR MY SIZE WHICH IS ANOTHER STORY . MY CAR AFTER GETTING IT TONIGHT FROM DEALER AND THEN TELLING ME RECALL WAS FIXED STALLED ON THE FREEWAY AND CAME TO A DROP AS THE CAR BEHIND ME WAS INCHES AWAY FROM SLAMMING INTO ME. AFTER STARTING AND RESTARTING THE ENGINE IT DRIVE AGAIN AND PRIOR TO GETTING HOME AS I LIVE ON A HILL IT STALLED AND WOULDN'T START. THIS HAPPENS REPEATEDLY AND THE DEALER IS TELLING ME NO CODES COME UP WHEN J BRING JT IN. IT BARELY DRIVES AND HAS NO SPEED AND CLEARLY IT'S A DANGEROUS SITUATION AND J HAVE A FOUR AND SIX YEAR OLD IN THIS CAR AND INFINITY CAN'T FIX THESE PROBLEMATIC CARS THEN I SUGGEST PUTTING YOUR CUSTOMERS IN A DIFFERENT CAR. I WON'T DRIVE WITH A STRING ODOR, ELECTRICAL ISSUES AND STALLING ONE MORE DAY AND FIGURE IT OUT CUS I'M LOSING WORK AND CLIENTS AND THIS IS NOW DIGGING INTO MY POCKET BOOK AND IT'S PUTTING MYSELF AND TODDLERS IN A COMPROMISING SAFETY SITUATION. I WAS INFORMED RECALL WAS FIXED WHEN I GOT IT TODAY AND RHIS WEBSITE WOUID HAVE BEEN UPDATED IF THAT WAS TRUE I'M FURIOUS AND MY MECHANIC HAS INFORMED ME OF WHAT THESE ISSUES ARE AND HE HAS GIVEN ME CODES THET INFINITY REFUSES TO ADDRESS SINCE THE LIGHTS ARE NOT ON THE ONE TIME THEY TURNED FAR IN. WHAT KIND OF MECHANICS CAN'T FIGURE A SAFETY ISSUE IN THE ENGINE ? I NEED RESOLUTION AND REIMBURSEMENT FOR MY PAYMENT AS I AM ENTITLED TO DRIVE IN A SAFE CAR
