What owners report most

Verbatim excerpts from NHTSA complaints, by component

Electrical system

2 reports
“I had my Q60's oil changed at my local Nissan dealer, who provided a courtesy car wash, after which my back up camera screen went blank and my driver side camera was unreadable with fluorescent coloring. Nissan rep and supervisor had no explanation why those 2 cameras failed and referred me to an Infinity dealer. Both cameras needed replacement at a cost of $4,359.27. Infinity denied liability for camera failures despite Internet confirmation that such camera failures on Q60's are "not uncommon" (Google AI search result, attached) and that recalls of both Nissan and Infinity automobiles due to camera issues are ongoing.”

Lane departure

1 report
“SCREEN IN VEHICLE GOES BLACK WHICH DISABLES REAR CAMERA VISIBILITY, WHICH IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THIS HAPPENS IN MOTION OR WHEN AT A STOP. THIS IS KNOWN ISSUE GOING BACK TO 2017 WITH INFINITI AND THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I AM TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE ISSUE. THEY DON'T NEED TO REPLICATE IT, IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN IGNORED BY INFINITI.”
