The contact owns a 2015 Infiniti QX80. The contact stated that on several occasions while driving approximately 20-25 MPH, the vehicle lost power, the engine revved abnormally, and the transmission failed to shift as intended. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer; however, the cause of the failure was not duplicated. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 85,000.

I have come to notice that when I put gas in my 2015 Infiniti (V8 engine vehicles only), QX80 vehicles. The fuel pressure sensors may not have been sufficiently tightened during production. As a result, the fuel pressure sensor may loosen with vehicle usage and cause a fuel leak.

I have been noticing intermittent gasoline smell outside of vehicle. It has been smelling stronger and more often so I decided to inspect it for the second. I removed the carpet and fuel pump cover and discovered the fuel pump is leaking gas. Now I cannot drive vehicle due to gasoline leaking every time the ignition is on. It is a serious safety and fire hazard. I have not contacted the dealer because it is not under warranty.

The most glaring safety issue caused by below is the SUV will try to move forward on its own while stopped and the brakes pressed that can potentially cause a fender bender. Infiniti/Nissan 5.6L engines have a history of failed or failing viscous cooling fan clutches. This goes back over a decade based on the TSG released by NISMO. When the viscous fan begins to fail, the most glaring symptom is that ECM will compensate by revving up the engine RPM...specially with the AC on. This can cause the RPM to go from around 500 to 1000 RPM during an RPM surge. The surge is enough to move the SUV forward at a stop unless the brake is firmly pressed. On hot weather days, this risk is frequent and significant at a top. This viscous fan issue also puts signficant load on the engine and causes significant power loss to the drive train. This issue does not cause any type of "check engine" light since it is strictly a mechanical failure of the mechanism containing the fluids in the viscou

The airbag system in my recently purchased (4 months ago)QX80 Infiniti 2015 is malfunctioning/failed. It is available for inspection upon request. The warning light came on within 2 months of my purchase. I took it to the dealerships for repair, was told “this is unusual for this age car & mileage” stating it was the driver curtain airbag module which I paid a large amount to have replaced. When I received the car back, the warning light was no longer on. A month & a half later, the warning light returned. Took it back to the same dealership where I am now told that when it was repaired prior it was merely a guess as to the problem & that now a different part of the system needs replacing (airbag diag system) “in hopes of this being the issue” There is also an accompanying hefty price for this repair. But I was also told (at this juncture) that if this part replacement did not take care of the problem, the next step would be to replace the airbag wiring harness which would cos

2015-2019 model year Nissan and Infiniti vehicles suffer from an on-board computer algorithm defect that can cause the side curtain airbag to spontaneously deploy.

The contact owns a 2015 Infiniti QX80. The contact stated while the vehicle was parked at the residence, he attempted to start the vehicle and the vehicle failed to start. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact waited for a while before attempting to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic and was diagnosed with a defective fuel pump. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 95,000.

Airbag light started flashing continuously while driving home on an 8 hour road trip on the interstate. I brought the car to the dealership once returning home, and they stated that they found a code for the left hand curtain air bag module assembly. Then proceeded to tell me that the driver side curtain airbag module assembly needs to be replaced, and if the light continues to flash then the wire harness will need to be replaced as well. This is a serious safety issue. If my vehicle would have been in an accident my airbags may not have deployed. There may be a defect in the side curtain airbags with this vehicle. I know that there is a lawsuit in Utah due to nissan and infiniti vehicles made between the years 2015-2019 due to driver side curtain airbags spontaneously deploying while driving in a normal and safe manner. This leads me to believe that something is faulty concerning the side curtain airbags in these vehicles. My SUV was purchased new, and has always been serviced a

I purchased a 2015 Infiniti QX80 on March 31, 2021. Since the purchase, I have only driven it approximately 6,000 miles and the check engine light has already come on. I took it to the dealership and they stated that both Catalytic Converters need to be replaced. This vehicle is only 6 years old; it should not need both Catalytic Converters replaced. Upon research, I discovered that there was a recall on 11/28/2014 for certain 2014-2015 Infiniti Q80 vehicles. My vehicle was not part of this recall, however, I know it should have been because I believe this is the reason for the Catalytic Converter failures on my car.

FIRST I WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT I LOVE MY VEHICLE, HOWEVER IT HAS AN ISSUE WITH STARTING THE ENGINE OCCASSIONALY. IN THE BEGINNING I WAS BLAMING IT ON THE BATTERY, I HAD THAT CHECKED SEVERAL TIME AND ALL SEEMED TO BE OK? AFTER SEVERAL TIMES OF THIS HAPPENING I DECIDED I WAS LOSING CONFIDENCE IN THE TESTING AND I PURCHASED A NEW BATTERY. THAT SEEMED TO TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM FOR 10 MONTHS, WHEN IT STARTED AGAIN AND HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES SINCE. I HAD A FRIEND JUMP START ME AND I DROVE STAIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP I HAD PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND BATTERY FROM. IT WAS AGAIN TESTED AND NOTHING SHOWED? I LEFT IT OVER THE WEEKED AND IT WAS CHECKED AND TESTED AGAIN ON MONDAY I PICKED IT UP AFTER WORK AND THEY HAD NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG, THEREFORE I TOOK IT HOME.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN BACK STREET AND APPLIED BRAKES DUE TO A STOP SIGN AHEAD OF ME AND MY VEHICLE DID NOT STOP. I WAS IN TOTAL SHOCK AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT AND COULD NOT BELIEVE I REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE DATE OF THE ACCIDENT WAS 2/9/2018. AFTER SPEAKING WITH TWO OF MY OTHER FRIENDS WEEKS LATER. MY FRIEND THAT OWNER A NISSAN MURANO REAR ENDED ANOTHER CAR WHEN SHE APPLIED THE BRAKES. MY OTHER FRIEND WHO OWNS AN INFINITY HAD HER VEHICLE IN THE SHOP FOR BRAKING PROBLEMS. TO ME THIS SEEMS A LITTLE IRONIC IF YOU ASK ME. *DSY

THIS VEHICLE HAS AN ISSUE WITH UNCONTROLLED ACCELERATION WHEN I FIRST TAKE OFF. WITH MY BRAKE PEDAL APPLIED THE ENGINE RPM IS APPROX. 550, WHICH IS IN SPECS. AS SOON AS I RELEASE THE BRAKES THE RPM JUMPS TO 1100 RPM AND THE VEHICLE TAKES OFF ON IT'S ON. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER TWICE FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THEY SAY THEY CAN'T HELP ME, MY FIRST EXPERIENCE I ALMOST REAR ENDED THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. THIS AN ISSUE THAT NEEDS ADDRESSED. STREET CONDITIONS, WEATHER CONDITIONS DON'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE, AND HAS DONE IT SINCE I PURCHASED IT.
