Within that volume, owners reported 1 crash, 0 fires, 0 injuries, and 0 fatalities. For crash performance, NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program gave this cohort an overall Not Rated/5 rating, with Not Rated/5 front crash, Not Rated/5 side crash, and Not Rated/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 2025 QX80 is unknown or other with 3 filings, followed by vehicle speed control (1) and suspension (1). 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 3 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 2025 QX80. 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.

While driving my Infiniti QX80, 2025 model, the driver's side mirror is constantly shaking and vibrating, especially on uneven roads or at speeds over 40–50 mph. The vibration blurs the mirror, making it impossible to see clearly and posing a safety risk. I brought this to the dealer, but they could not resolve the issue. They replaced the mirror, yet it did not help and actually made the vibration worse. Now they claim this is "normal" and that nothing can be done. However, the vibration is constant and unacceptable for safe driving. I request further investigation and resolution.

The rearview/backup camera has intermittently malfunctioned in my QX80 numerous times since I purchased the car in February 2024, including (1) displaying a frozen image from the backup camera when putting the car in reverse which stayed frozen (for example, did show a car driving directly behind me which I almost hit) and displayed the frozen image to the driver the entire time driving the car, including at highway speeds, and which could not be manually removed from view (including by pressing the camera button); and (2) the backup camera not turning on at all when the QX80 is put in reverse, not could the backup camera be turned on manually by pushing the camera button.

A lady driving a Honda Fit pulled out in front of my wife while she was driving her Infinity QX80. My wife was driving about 40-45 MPH at the time of the crash. The driver at fault in the Honda Fit I noticed all air bags deployed. My wife's QX80 had none of the air bags deployed. The officers at the scene were shocked to see the amount of damage to my wife's QX80 while not triggering the air bags to be deployed. One in particular told us to make sure we reported this to the insurance company.

Upon "reboot", the stereo system is blaring loud, without ability to turn down volume, creating a dangerous driving environment.
