2017 Infiniti Q60

9/8/25 Airbag light is on dealership states it's the occupancy sensor. Must replace the seat frame $7k just for the part. I seen that the QX50 and 60 had same issue and a recall was issued. Could you please help us resolve this issue.

Engine threw a main bearing around 80 thousand miles in 2023, car was not modified other than different muffler on the back and aftermarket wheels and tires which has nothing to do with the engine. Car had oil changes every 3500-4500 miles with MOTUL full synthetic oil. No engines lights were given, car was taken to a Nissan dealership as manufacturer warranty was expired, my extended warranty was fidelity and they declined due to these aftermarket “changes” dealership gave me a quote over 25k dollars which is what I paid for the car in 2019. I understand it’s a luxury brand but these engines are well known for these issues and nothing is done other than some warranty extension for failing turbos which are also terrible and I believe to be the CAUSE of this thrown bearing, I have owned so many Nissans and will most likely never own another after this mistake. Still love the car but the people that buy these deserve better for the cost. The car is currently sitting in a garage because the cost is absurd.

Car malfunction light comes on spontaneously and runs rough and losses power and rpm can go to 4 at 35 mph and usually happens when car is idling parked for a little while. Them I cut it off and let it sit it goes back to normal. I also had prior problems with it smoking from tailpipe and it’s documented at dealership in Columbia SC and they said it wasn’t smoking enough to replace the turbos at the time but I got a notification from manufacturer about turbo malfunction.

The automobile has 24,000 miles on it and the sensor for the passenger seat airbag is defective. To repair this, the passenger seat track has to be replaced, at a cost of $8200.00. This is a major safety issue for this automobile.

Infiniti called me on 05/08/24 to discuss and review Infiniti Case # [XXX] including Infiniti’s subsequent refusal to remedy a defective SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) sensor on my 2017 Infiniti Q60 with 54,100 miles (VIN: [XXX] ). This defect was confirmed on 05/07/24 by Infiniti of Melbourne Florida through an authorized technician. While I am the original owner of the vehicle, Infiniti stated they will not provide any financial assistance to rectify the issue because the vehicle is outside of the manufacturers warranty, while acknowledging that there have been numerous customer complaints related to this problem and that Infiniti has been aware of defective SRS parts effecting a critical safety device that renders the air bag system inoperable. Moreover, to repair such a deficiency, based on Infiniti’s design, the entire seat must be replaced costing over $8K, an exorbitant and onerous amount, often more than 50% of the vehicles value. This excessive financial charge has deliberately burdened Infiniti owners with a safety related component. For several years this issue has been recurrently discussed on multiple public forums and yet Infiniti has intentionally decided not to remedy this safety issue or provide any assistance or consideration to its customers. I’ve attached an Infiniti forum link (one of dozens) proving that Infiniti has known about this problem going back over a decade and failed to take any action and instead prolonged a predatory pricing scheme that is harming owners. [XXX] ) As a result of Infiniti’s complete intransigence on a safety related matter, the National Hwy. Traffic Safety Admin. (NHTSA), should compel Infiniti to remedy this situation. It’s hoped that Infiniti will take immediate action to correct this situation and not abandon its owners in an untenable, unsafe and unjustifiable predicament.

AC COMPRESSOR SEEMS IS OUT OF ALIGNMENT. INFINITI REQUIRES CUSTOMERS TO PERFORM TECHNICAL SUPPLY BULLETIN TO ALIGN AC COMPRESSOR AT OWNER EXPENSE. IF A DRIVE BELT BREAKS WILL DRIVING IT CAN CAUSE COLLATERAL DAMAGE TO ENGINE COMPONENTS ANS POSE A SAFETY RISK TO THE PASSENGERS. MANY VEHICLES AFFECTED.

OCS passenger seat weight sensor failed. Dealership verified this. They say to repair will be $8000 to replace whole seat. This is a common problem with hundreds of complaints mentioned on online forums. There was a recall for this issue on prior year Infiniti models but that recall doesn’t include newer than 2016. Infiniti refuses to replace under warranty. (They replaced the driver seatbelt retractor assembly under warranty, but won’t repair the airbag issue). The weight sensor does not register that someone is sitting in the seat.

Airbag Occupant Sensor for passenger seat ceased to function. "Passenger Airbag Off" indicator light remains on even with passenger in seat. Check airbag light in dash remains lit. Took car to infiniti dealership to diagnose. They quoted $8000 repair price to replace entire seat frame. They claim the sensor is built into the seat frame and individual sensors can not be replaced. The quoted price is more than half the value of the car and is cost prohibitive to repair. I have read many posts where this is a common problem for this car. There was a recall for earlier car models with similar problem but this car is not covered. See Infiniti bulletin [XXX] . It is the same problem. I feel unsafe driving this car now but the repair cost is unreasonable and infiniti should not make the repair so expensive as it compromises the safety of the consumer.

The contact owns a 2017 Infiniti Q60. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the seat air bag sensor, requiring the entire passenger’s side seat to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related it to NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V244000 (Air Bags) but the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The failure mileage was 48,000.

1. The engine and turbos failed making the car un-driveable. 2. My safety was put at risk because I had to immediately pull my car off the road in fear that my car would completely fail or catch fire. 3. Yes 4. There were no warnings prior to the failure. It failed out of nowhere. Proper maintenance was done.

Engine failed, metal shavings in oil pan and disappearing coolant in the last year. out of warranty and extended warranty denied my replacement engine, they want 36k for an engine and turbos. Crazy

FIRST THE PASSENGER AIRBAG JUST STOP WORKING, THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE DASH WILL NOT GO OUT AND THE DISPLAY LIGHT BY THE GEAR SHIFT SAYS #2 AIRBAG NOT WORKING. SECONDLY WHILE DRIVING THE CAR I GET A SCREACHING SOUND FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THOUGHT IT WAS MAYBE THE SENSOR ON THE BRAKES BUT NOT SURE. JUST HAD WORK DOWN ON THE CAR ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO, THE CAR WOULD NOT COME OUT OF 1ST GEAR. ECM WAS REPLACE AT DEALERSHIP

The evening of April 17th, 2022, I started experiencing an issue with my vehicle. My car started making a fluttering noise it sounded like someone was shuffling a deck of cards and the RPMs would get to 3 during acceleration then drop and I’d lose power. There were no warning lights present, no notification or indicators on my dash, no odors, and no smoke emitting from my car. I parked my car at home not knowing what the issue was or where the noise was coming from. The next morning, I called to schedule an appointment and I booked with Infiniti in Timonium. After scheduling my appointment, I went out to check my car and when I started it the noise was still there. It ran for a few seconds then my check engine light cut on. Looking to get a pre-diagnosis to have additional info about the condition of my car I take it to Autozone on liberty road to have codes pulled. The codes that came back were P0014 and P0024 both camshaft codes. However, there were still no other symptoms of odor or smoke just the fluttering noise and now my check engine light. On the way back home my car stalls at Liberty Road and Rolling Road and won’t cut back on. I contacted AAA and had it towed to Infiniti the same day. I was assigned to [XXX] as my service advisor. The car was at Infiniti in Timonium for close to a month when [XXX] reached out to notify me of the presence of sludge and metal shavings in my oil pan and my engine being seized. He was adamant that it came from a lack of maintenance. I was using my third-party warranty and they requested that I send proof of maintenance. I submitted my maintenance invoices to Sean, and he forwarded them to my Warranty Company. I provided invoices for my last 3 oil changes. I wasn’t due for a fourth for another 6-700 miles. I bought my car at 35,796 miles and I’m currently at 70,042 (42 miles out of the power train warranty). I followed manufactures 10k guideline. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request.
