Air bags

6 reports
“2014 Q60 Infiniti airbag light flashing, compromising the passenger airbag. The dealer wants over $5-7000 to replace the seat, because of the sense pressure plate failure, indicating an adult sitting in seat, and not a child getting injured. Infiniti redesigned their newer seats, because of this problem, so they knew about it and did nothing to resolve this issue for consumers. There is a recall for the 2014 Qx50 Airbag Diagnostic airbag sensor unit, newer design, "which the Q60 doesn't have", resulting in a cheaper fix. I feel Infiniti only worried about their bottom line, and not the safety of our bottom, being in the seat. Sincere and in need of help!”

Electrical system

2 reports
“AFTER CAR SITS FOR 1~2 WEEKS BATTERY GOES DEAD. HAD TO THE DEALER AND REPLACED BATTERY. 3 MONTHS LATER SAME THING. BACK TO DEALER AND FOUND A DEFECTIVE BATTERY AND REPLACED, AGAIN. 2 MONTHS LATER SAME PROBLEM. BACK TO DEALER AND REQUESTED A PARASITIC DRAW TEST....NEGATIVE. SAME PROBLEM AGAIN, WENT TO DEALER AND THEY SUGGESTED TO DISABLE REMOTE START. DEALER HAS NO CLUE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. THIS ALL HAPPENED IN 2018 TO PRESENT, 2021. I FEEL IT IS NOT THE REMOTE START SINCE IT HAS BEEN IN THE CAR SINCE NEW. NO PROBLEM FOR THE FIRST FEW YEARS.”
