Component: Air Bags / Occupant Classification System (OCS) Problem Description: The Occupant Classification System (OCS) in my 2016 Infiniti QX60 is malfunctioning. The passenger airbag indicator light flickers on and off even when the passenger seat is empty. When an adult passenger is seated properly with the seatbelt fastened, the system frequently fails to detect the occupant and does not consistently indicate that the passenger airbag is active. The issue occurs intermittently and unpredictably, both while driving and shortly after vehicle startup. Dealer Repair Attempts: I have brought the vehicle to the Infiniti dealership multiple times for this issue. Each visit resulted in a paid service where the dealership “reset” the OCS module and stated the issue was resolved. However, the malfunction returned immediately. On one occasion, the issue reoccurred as soon as I pulled out of the dealership parking lot, at which point I returned the vehicle to service. After that visit

The electric controlled coupling failed and as a result, the AWD failed. There is vibration when turning and driving 25 mph. The grinding noise remained after I got new brakes and I was told it’s from the coupling trying to power the AWD. I took my 2016 QX60 to the dealer and also to a foreign car auto shop and they both confirmed it needs to be replaced. When the coupling is unplugged, the noise is not present.

2016 Infiniti QX60 93,000 miles The battery light was on. I have noticed that my CVT transmission goes into limp mode. This has happened several times with no help from infiniti. I can only go 10MPH and it revs only 1000 RPM, then it'll be fine after I turn off and on again. Had battery and alternator checked and they're 100% good. This is very dangerous when it happenes in traffic and infiniti won't do anything.

Passenger airbag does not detect any adult sitting in the passenger seat, causing the light to stay on and possibly not deploy during an accident. The vehicle make and model has a recall for this exact problem, but has not notified for a recall service.

The airbag sensor light is flashing whether a passenger is in the seat or not. Infiniti has refused to investigate the issue and is stating that it is my responsibility to pay for the diagnostics despite the fact that this is an airbag related issue and is possibly related to the 2016 Nissan recall.

In their words, "we have seen this occur in several Infiniti models and recommended that I contact the Infiniti Consumer Affairs office as it is not under any recalls.

While driving down a clear road on a beautiful day, the sunroof in my QX60 randomly exploded, outwardly. It sounded like a gunshot hit the car.

It was making a concerning sound in the process. The sound scared all of and almost caused a wreck.
