NHTSA lists 1 safety recall and 34 owner complaints for the 2017 Infiniti Q60. Most complaints involve engine (12) and air bags (6). The EPA rates it 22–25 mpg combined.
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2016-2018 Infiniti Q50 and 2017 Infiniti Q60 vehicles equipped with a 2.0L engine. Incorrect Fuel Pump Control Module (FPCM) software may allow the fuel level in the main tank to be too low to supply fuel to the engine, causing the engine to stall while driving.
Complaints are unverified owner reports to NHTSA and are not normalized for sales volume. One complaint can cite several components.
