New Car Assessment Program
The 2014INFINITIQX60 carries 264 consumer safety complaints in NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation database for this specific model-year cohort. Within that volume, owners reported 3 crashes, 2 fires, 1 injury, and 0 fatalities. For crash performance, NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program gave this cohort an overall 5/5 rating, with 4/5 front crash, 5/5 side crash, and 4/5 rollover scores derived from standardized barrier and dynamic tests.
Component-level analysis is where model-year complaints become actionable: the top complaint category for the 2014 QX60 is power train with 97 filings, followed by engine (28) and unknown or other (28). Concentration in one or two component groups is the classic signature of a systemic defect; a flat distribution usually reflects normal aging, warranty complaints, or isolated build-plant variability. This model year has 7 active recall campaigns, which means the manufacturer is obligated to remedy the covered defect at no charge for the life of the vehicle — the full NHTSA campaign numbers are listed below.
NHTSA currently has 7 investigation files overlapping the 2014 QX60. Owners comparing this cohort against neighboring years should pair the counters above with the complaint-by-year trend on the parent model page — a spike in a single year often tracks to a platform refresh, a new transmission supplier, or an updated ECU calibration.

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

My vehicle is having issues with the CVT transmission timing chain, I was just aware, there was a recall in the past but my infiniti dealership said it's expired.And they won't help replace it. I'm getting Judder while driving.
The contact owns a 2014 Infiniti QX60. The contact stated that while driving 25-30 MPH, the vehicle shuddered and failed to accelerate as intended upon depressing the accelerator pedal. Additionally, the contact stated that upon shifting into reverse(R) and depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle failed to reverse and drove forward instead. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The manufacturer informed the contact that the VIN was included in Infiniti Campaign Number: PC501. The manufacturer scheduled an appointment with the dealer on the contact's behalf. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, and the dealer informed the contact that the TCM software was updated; however, the failure persisted. The Service Advisor at the dealer informed the contact that the transmission needed to be replaced. The regional manager was contacted and informed the contact that the dealer had stated that the service campaign had not been performed, and the vehicle had no

Since 4/4/2025 unresolved CVT transmission repair 4 replacement CVT transmission have failed, each time order for the repair they have failed with the same problem or different problems with the CVT transmission, â¢Despite assurances that the repairs were properly completed, I have experienced the ongoing issues â e.g., The gears jumped â¢The car wouldnât accelerate past 20 mph â¢When placed in park, the transmission felt unstable â¢A check engine light/code appeared â¢4 Transmission order and all have failed to fix the problem As of 6/27/2025 the reorder of replacements CVT transmission have failed.

This vehicle started shaking and juttering at a lower speed and made it very difficult to drive. Then I could accelerate and it would not go faster. I took it to a repair shop and they were getting CVT codes for the transmission. I looked online a found that many other people had these same issues as well as a Class Action Lawsuit that was settled a few years ago for 278 million for these problems. I was never informed that this CVT was a problem and could have it replaced from Nissan for no charge. I am not sure why Nissan would allow an unsafe transmission to be installed into a vehicle that would make the car unsafe to drive.

I am reporting a serious safety failure involving my 2014 Infiniti QX60 Hybrid (VIN: [XXX] ), tied to Recall R21B4 / NHTSA 21V-774. Although the recall was marked complete before I bought the car in 2022, the defect â sudden loss of power â occurred again while I was driving at highway speeds. Infiniti is refusing to assist due to age/mileage, despite clear evidence the recall fix was ineffective or incomplete. Diagnostic codes confirm hybrid system failure (P0A08, C1A1A, C1130). I am requesting a full investigation into Infinitiâs handling of this recall and a resolution for my unsafe vehicle. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The CVT unit is causing hard acceleration and jerking randomly. The CVT unit has a notification a few years ago on this model up to a certain mileage which I believe was 99,000 miles. My vechile just reached 113,000 miles and I am having this problem. It is safety and dangerous issue for me because I have been in traffic making turns when the acceleration seems to not go to gear and I almost caused an accident.
The car is not engaging when going from 1st to all gears, the car feels very shaky and unstable

The whole vehicle experiences strong vibrations when accelerating to 30 miles per hour and higher. It also gives strong judder or kicks when turning. Hard to control the vehicle at high speeds. No warning light is on. Took the vehicle to a local dealer (Houston Southwest Infiniti) and found that the problem was caused by a defective rear differential coupler.

Vehicle has a CVT transmission and it failed around 87,000 miles. Both catalytic converters had to be replaced at this same time. When using assisted cruise control, the vehicle slams on the brake causing all passengers to jolt forward and vehicles behind to have to swerve not to hit me from behind. False automatic braking when passing a large vehicle. Engine constantly having issues and codes causing poor acceleration and jerking at low speeds. MAF sensor has failed twice in 5 months. Overall worst manufactured vehicle and very unsafe for driver and citizens.
