Filed Nov 6, 2026 · Seats · 12,916 miles · LA

The contact owns a 2026 Infiniti QX60. The contact stated that while approaching a stoplight, the driver's seat unexpectedly shifted backwards without the seat adjustment button pressed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The dealer advised the contact to return if the failure reoccurred. The contact stated that the vehicle was scheduled for a second appointment with the dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure via email and telephone, and a case was filed. The contact expressed concern that the failure was hazardous because the unexpected seat movement made it difficult to properly reach and operate the brake pedal and accelerator pedal, increasing the risk of a crash. The failure mileage was approximately 12,916.

II am reporting a recurring and potentially dangerous malfunction involving the vehicle's failure to accelerate. Component/System: The specific component responsible is UNKNOWN. However, I suspect an issue involving the acceleration system, electronic throttle control, engine management system, or transmission. Description of Failure: On multiple occasions, while driving, I have pressed the accelerator pedal to increase speed, but the vehicle fails to respond. Instead, it hesitates or appears to maintain its current speed despite continued pressure on the accelerator. This has occurred several times, including while making turns or changing directions. Safety Concerns: This malfunction creates a significant safety hazard because the vehicle unexpectedly fails to accelerate when additional speed is necessary. When turning at intersections, entering traffic, or maneuvering around other vehicles, the inability to accelerate increases the risk of a collision. The unpredictable nature of the problem makes it difficult to anticipate or safely respond. Dealer Confirmation: UNKNOWN. The issue has occurred repeatedly but has not been confirmed through a documented diagnosis. Prior Inspections: UNKNOWN. I cannot confirm whether the manufacturer or another authorized party has inspected the vehicle specifically for this issue. Warning Lights/Symptoms: UNKNOWN regarding warning lights or dashboard messages. The primary symptom is the unexpected failure to accelerate despite pressing the accelerator pedal. The exact date the issue first occurred is UNKNOWN. I am concerned that this recurring malfunction presents a serious safety risk to me, my passengers, and other motorists. I am requesting an investigation into this potential vehicle safety defect.

Multiple times since purchasing the vehicle upon stopping at stop sign, stop light and stopping in traffic my driver seat slides back as if I was turning car off and exiting but I am in drive and it causes me to not be able to reach the brake pedal so I have to quickly put in park. My car is currently at the Infiniti dealership in colma and I had contacted multiple times with no response the Dublin Infiniti location and the concord location.

The vehicle would not go over the speed of 40 mph

am filing this complaint regarding a serious safety incident involving my leased 2025 INFINITI QX60 and INFINITI’s response to the incident. While the vehicle was parked, the second-row seat was being manually operated when a child’s foot became trapped within the seat mechanism. The child’s foot could not be released despite repeated attempts. The child remained trapped for approximately one hour, and 911 was called for assistance. Emergency responders ultimately had to remove/dismantle the second-row seat in order to free the child. The child required medical evaluation and treatment following the incident, resulting in medical expenses. The emergency rescue also left the vehicle’s seat damaged and in need of repair. The incident was reported to INFINITI because of our concern that a child was able to become trapped in the seat mechanism during its operation. INFINITI subsequently arranged for the vehicle to be inspected. Following its investigation, INFINITI informed us that it did not believe the vehicle or seat had malfunctioned and, based on that conclusion, declined to provide any financial assistance. Our concern, however, is not limited to whether INFINITI considers the seat to have mechanically “malfunctioned.” If the seat operated as INFINITI says it was designed to operate, we believe that raises an important safety question as to how a child’s foot could become trapped so severely that emergency responders had to remove the seat to free the child. We were not aware of a risk that operation of the second-row seat could result in this type of entrapment, nor were we provided with a clear or conspicuous warning that alerted us to this specific danger before the incident. We are asking that this matter be reviewed as a potential vehicle safety and consumer issue. We would also like INFINITI to address the actual circumstances of the incident and the adequacy of the warnings and safeguards associated with the second-row seat, rather than limiting its

I was in drive and stopped to make a left hand turn. When it was my turn to go, I pressed on the gas and did not move, so I looked over at the gear shift and it switched itself into Neutral from Drive, by itself. I did not touch it or bump it.

On August 8, 2026 at around 10:18am, while driving at a speed of approximately 40mph, my sunroof spontaneously exploded outwards without any external impact. The tempered glass suffered a sudden structural failure and burst outward while driving, without any external rock strike or road debris collision. I have photographic evidence showing the glass coned upward and outward confirming severe pressure or manufacturing anomaly. The glass debris flew to other lanes. Witnesses who checked on us after we stopped stated they saw the external explosion outward as well as the glass debris flying on other lanes.

While uninstalling a Chicco Fit360 ClearTex rotating convertible car seat, we discovered that the load-bearing webbing connecting the car seat base to a lower-anchor connector had completely separated. The car seat had not been involved in any crash or impact, and nothing struck or contacted the seat during removal. The separation was not visible during normal use. The seat had become loose, but we did not know that the lower-anchor webbing itself had failed. Because this webbing secured the base to the vehicle’s lower anchor, the failure severely compromised the installation while our child had been riding in the seat. In a collision, the restraint might not have remained secured to the vehicle. The car seat has been removed from use. It has not yet been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurer, or another party. The seat, separated webbing, photographs, and video have been preserved and are available for inspection upon request. We purchased two identical seats and are concerned that other units may experience the same safety-critical failure. We request investigation as a potential safety defect.
