The engine shut down while driving. there where no warning lights. we where told that the car had a faulty abs sensor and that caused the car to go into "failsafe" mode. this is the second time this had happened in 10 months.
When starting up after a complete stop, the vehicle will surge. it also happens when you put the car into reverse. the dealership stated they had experienced the same problem and had to replace the transmission. drove our vehicle in the parking lot but could not recreate the problem so would not do anything further. i feel this is a safety risk. this has happened on numerous occasions.
Car failed to accelerate on a major highway (thruway)!! virtually no warning at all - only ped indicator light flashed on/off. very lucky to be alive ( myself and 2 kids) . was able to pull to side of road , into rest /truck stop.area- battery light (red) illuminated . called service dept at local dealership - described issue .. now car is turned off - started car again ' engine turns over - shift to d to drive - car doesn't move. infinity , service (lack of ) dept , roadside assistance , consumer affairs .... useless . left stranded for over 8 hrs . police finally came to my assistance .. this is a transmission problem , defect - nissan & infinity are aware of cvt issue - this is criminal . i was put in a potentially fatal situation with 2 kids . many complaints on file . the 2017 qx60 needs to be recalled . do not trust this vehicle .. quite sure lawsuits have already been filed . shame on infinity for selling these cars . hopefully , a recall will take place before people are killed . inconceivable!!!!! i was lucky. case file number available if necessary.
2 times now in the last few weeks while using adaptive cruise control the car decided to take off. i watched the cruise speed go from 70 to 80 without any input and the car rocketed to 100 miles and hour. braking would slow it down but as soon as i took my foot off the brake it would speed up. i tried turning the cruise control off and that didn't stop it. i cycled it on and off about 5 times but it kept speeding up. my wife told me to turn the cruise back on and leave it and that is when it finally stopped. she told this same incident happened to her two weeks ago and that was he only thing to stop it. i have never seen the cruise accelerate that quickly prior. it was very scary and easily could have killed us or anyone we may have run into. we were fortunate it happened on a business loop of an expressway. the incident seems to started when we left the regular highway and i was toggling the cruise to a lower speed which it was doing. i was going from 78 to 60 then by itself went to 80 and beyond. previously i had witnessed the adaptive cruise not stop like it should and have to apply braking, which i reported to the dealership and was looked at without any answer. this incident felt like my car was being hacked and someone else was having fun with it. *tt *tr *tt *dt updated 10/1/18*jb
