There are 4 owner-reported engine complaints for the 2019 Infiniti QX60in NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
My car started making a whining noise and leaking oil simultaneously. After taking it to be looked at, there is a broken seal due in improper assembly on the right side drive shaft. If it remains broken, not fixed, I risk a transmission failure. Multiple "Technical Serve Bulletins" have been released by Infiniti since 2017 (my car is a 2019 and was purchased certified pre-owned), but they will not issue a recall because this isn't considered a safety issue. Losing transmission function on the highway would create a huge safety concern.
My engine has sludge all over it as well as engine bearing shavings despite only having 122k miles and regular oil changes and maintenance.
There has been many problems with the QX60 engine with oil slug and Infinty does not want to repair this problem , even after showing regular oil changes. They want to charge up to $17000 to replace the engine
