Vehicle-specific risks from this model-year's complaint record, known defects, and service milestones
Owners of the 2016 INFINITI QX60 report safety systems issues more than most other systems. Complaints concentrated in one area often signal a systemic weakness worth a targeted pre-purchase inspection.
Owners of the 2016 INFINITI QX60 report visibility issues more than most other systems. Complaints concentrated in one area often signal a systemic weakness worth a targeted pre-purchase inspection.
Owners of the 2016 INFINITI QX60 report electrical issues more than most other systems. Complaints concentrated in one area often signal a systemic weakness worth a targeted pre-purchase inspection.
Worn chain tensioners cause timing chain skip or snap — common on GM 5.3L/6.2L, Ford EcoBoost, VW/Audi EA888, BMW N47/N63. Listen for cold-start rattles.
Water pump failure causes rapid overheating. If the engine overheats even once, head gasket damage is likely — turning a $400 part into a $3,000+ repair.
Degraded transmission fluid destroys clutch packs and solenoids. CVT transmissions are especially sensitive — neglected fluid can result in a $4,000–$8,000 replacement.
On 4WD/AWD vehicles, neglected differential or transfer case fluid causes metal-on-metal wear. Replacement costs $1,500–$4,000.
Degraded coolant loses corrosion inhibitors and attacks aluminum engine components. Can cause head gasket failure and water pump corrosion.
Worn spark plugs cause misfires that can foul and crack catalytic converters. A $150 tune-up can prevent a $1,200 catalytic converter replacement.
Dirty or failing injectors cause rough idle, reduced fuel economy, and increased emissions. Cleaning costs $100–$200; replacement $800–$1,600.

Owner Complaints
HIGH VOLUME29 safety complaints filed with NHTSA
I am reporting a serious safety concern with my 2016 Infiniti QX60 involving a defective cooling fan system. The vehicle currently experiences a ticking/tapping noise from the cooling fan, and the fan does not operate properly, which has caused the engine to overheat. This condition creates a significant safety hazard, as engine overheating can lead to sudden engine failure while driving, increasing the risk of an accident. The issue also makes it unsafe to use essential features such as the air conditioner in hot weather and the defroster in cold conditions, which impacts visibility and driver safety. This defect appears to be part of a known issue affecting this vehicle platform, where the cooling fan system fails prematurely. I understand there have been allegations, including in Anderson v. Nissan North America, that the manufacturer may have been aware of this defect but did not adequately disclose it. In addition, I am aware that this vehicle model has been associated with other safety-related recalls, including issues involving the ABS actuator (which may pose a fire risk) and the hybrid powertrain control system (if applicable). These existing concerns further highlight the urgency of addressing this defect. This is not normal wear and tear, but a potential safety-related defect that places drivers, passengers, and others on the road at risk. I am concerned about continuing to operate this vehicle and potentially causing an accident or injury due to overheating or loss of vehicle function. I am requesting that this issue be formally investigated to determine whether a recall or corrective action is necessary to prevent harm.
Component: Air Bags / Occupant Classification System (OCS) Problem Description: The Occupant Classification System (OCS) in my 2016 Infiniti QX60 is malfunctioning. The passenger airbag indicator light flickers on and off even when the passenger seat is empty. When an adult passenger is seated properly with the seatbelt fastened, the system frequently fails to detect the occupant and does not consistently indicate that the passenger airbag is active. The issue occurs intermittently and unpredictably, both while driving and shortly after vehicle startup. Dealer Repair Attempts: I have brought the vehicle to the Infiniti dealership multiple times for this issue. Each visit resulted in a paid service where the dealership “reset” the OCS module and stated the issue was resolved. However, the malfunction returned immediately. On one occasion, the issue reoccurred as soon as I pulled out of the dealership parking lot, at which point I returned the vehicle to service. After that visit, I was told the only solution would be to replace all related components at my expense. Recall Concern: Although my VIN does not currently show an active recall, the 2016 Infiniti QX60 model year is known to have a recall for an OCS airbag defect. My vehicle is exhibiting the exact same symptoms described in the recall. The dealership has refused to perform the repair under recall coverage solely because my VIN is not listed. Safety Risk: This is a serious safety concern. The passenger airbag may fail to deploy when an adult is present, increasing the risk of severe injury or death in the event of a collision. The system cannot be relied upon to function properly. Outcome Requested: I am requesting that this defect be investigated and addressed as a safety-related issue consistent with the known recall affecting this model year.
The electric controlled coupling failed and as a result, the AWD failed. There is vibration when turning and driving 25 mph. The grinding noise remained after I got new brakes and I was told it’s from the coupling trying to power the AWD. I took my 2016 QX60 to the dealer and also to a foreign car auto shop and they both confirmed it needs to be replaced. When the coupling is unplugged, the noise is not present.
The contact owns a 2016 Infiniti QX60. The contact stated that while making a left turn at a low rate of speed, another vehicle attempted to drive around the contact's vehicle. As the vehicle attempted to drive around, the contact was hit by the passing vehicle.

A police report was filed at the scene; however, the police report was not available due to an ongoing investigation. The contact, the contact's mother, and the contact's son and daughter were all taken to the hospital for a check-up; the contact suffered emotional distress due to the accident but no physical injuries were reported. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where it remained in the mechanic's possession. The dealer was notified of the failure and was informed that there were no recalls on the vehicle. Upon investigation, the contact discovered NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V244000(Air Bags) which was linked to the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 123,000.
2016 Infiniti QX60 93,000 miles The battery light was on. I have noticed that my CVT transmission goes into limp mode. This has happened several times with no help from infiniti. I can only go 10MPH and it revs only 1000 RPM, then it'll be fine after I turn off and on again. Had battery and alternator checked and they're 100% good. This is very dangerous when it happenes in traffic and infiniti won't do anything.
Passenger airbag does not detect any adult sitting in the passenger seat, causing the light to stay on and possibly not deploy during an accident. The vehicle make and model has a recall for this exact problem, but has not notified for a recall service.
The airbag sensor light is flashing whether a passenger is in the seat or not. Infiniti has refused to investigate the issue and is stating that it is my responsibility to pay for the diagnostics despite the fact that this is an airbag related issue and is possibly related to the 2016 Nissan recall.
I'm hoping to solve a problem or at least get a positive answer why my FEB Warning Indicator Light comes on "SPORADICALLY". I had noticed it quite a few times either driving on the freeway, secondary roads, at higher and lower speeds and especially troublesome, when there are not any hazards or... Now my light stay on all time
Passenger airbag sensor showing warning. There was a previous recall that shows active but my VIN says it does not have an unaddressed recall which I think is inaccurate.
Air bag light began blinking notifying me of an issue. The vehicle is available for an inspection. I took car to dealer for diagnostic check. The dealer informed me that it is the drivers side airbag causing the issue. This is a safety component of the vehicle and puts the driver and all occupants at risk should their be an airbag failure in an accident. Issue has been through a diagnostic check by the dealer and confirmed. They recommended 1) that I replace the seatback which is a costly repair. In their words, "we have seen this occur in several Infiniti models and recommended that I contact the Infiniti Consumer Affairs office as it is not under any recalls. Seatbelts are covered under the lifetime warranty of the vehicle but not the airbags." Car has had the warning lamp display for approximately 30 days now. it began end of July/early August. The vehicle has approximately 115k miles and has never been in an accident.

The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that the failure was an environmental issue. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.
While driving down a clear road on a beautiful day, the sunroof in my QX60 randomly exploded, outwardly. It sounded like a gunshot hit the car. Glass went everywhere, hit oncoming traffic, the windshield, and hood of car. We immediately pulled over and noticed the sunroof was expanding outwardly towards the sky, not inward. It was making a concerning sound in the process. The sound scared all of and almost caused a wreck. I was 6 months pregnant at the time and my husband was in the passenger side and my 20 month old son was in the back seat car seat.
The contact owns a 2016 Infiniti QX60. The contact stated that on two separate occasions, the infotainment screen located in the center console had failed to operate as needed.
