LaFontaine Import Novi, Inc. DBA LaFontaine Novi, a franchised Infiniti entity with actual knowledge of these recalls (16V‑244; 15V‑033; 13V‑445), failed to disclose or remediate these "Risk of Crash" and "Risk of Injury" defects before selling me a 2014 Infiniti QX60 on Nov 5, 2025. The dealer provided a "Pre-delivery inspection" record on November 4, 2025 to CARFAX, but delivered the vehicle with these open recalls and multiple "Red Alert" mechanical leaks in the engine, transmission, and fuel systems. Only 588 miles after delivery, on Dec 26, 2025, the vehicle suffered a catastrophic cooling system failure (the radiator and transmission cooler) which demonstrated that the vehicle was not safe or roadworthy. The Service Manager admitted on January 6, 2026, that the radiator was defective and needed full replacement, which confirms the vehicle was sold with a pre-existing systemic failure

Brake peddle randomly goes to floor and engages seatbelt violently when stopping.
Brakes shimmy-new (added 2 months ago) engine shutters and shakes when turning and driving when driving, the car engine sputters when turning the car feels like it will go off the road its shaking so badly
Abs brake actuator- when the vehicle is stopped, the brake pedal will continue to depress. When the break is released a chirping sound is made. This is a known safety issue on the 2017 model. The dealer and several chat groups online all point to this being a known issue with the model. There is a 2017 recall for this part. The recall says it is a potential fire hazard. I believes the recall needs to be expanded. The ABS brake actuator should not fail on a vehicle with 77,000 miles. I had the car at the dealer for the issue previously and they "could not find" the issue. A third trip and the issue is found.
Intermittent issues involving the braking system. Most days the issue is not present. Some days the issue occurs the entire day. Some days the issue only occurs once out of 4-5 times the vehicle is used. 1. Brake pedal sinks to floor when at a stop. Wheezing sound when releasing the brake pedal. 2. When braking softly, brake pedal travels about 50% before the vehicle begins slowing. 3. Issue persists the entire time the car is in use. Restarting the vehicle sometimes restores functionality.
The car is shaking and steering while get lock and transmission is jamming
