5/5 Overall
NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating
The most consistent pattern owners of the 2022 QX60 describe involves the electrical system and the panoramic sunroof glass. On the electrical side, multiple owners report the alarm triggering spontaneously while the vehicle is parked and locked, with no contact or apparent cause, some say the problem is difficult to reproduce at a dealership. Two separate owners report the panoramic sunroof glass shattering suddenly while driving, with no debris or impact involved, just an abrupt loud noise followed by a broken roof panel. Brake wear comes up as well, with at least one owner describing rear brake pads needing replacement multiple times before 45,000 miles. A couple of engine-related reports mention the vehicle stalling unexpectedly while in motion and failing to restart.

Total Complaints
By System
The 2022 INFINITI QX60 has 3 recalls, the most serious involving a potentially missing mounting bolt in the second-row seat track that can allow the seat to shift in a crash, raising the risk of injury to rear passengers.
The remaining two recalls both address the same adaptive front-light system, which can incorrectly aim the headlights downward while driving at higher speeds. When this happens, the headlights illuminate less of the road ahead, reducing the driver's ability to see hazards at night or in low-visibility conditions. This software-related issue affects the automatic headlight adjustment system rather than the bulbs themselves, so the lights remain on but point in the wrong direction, narrowing the cone of illumination when it matters most.
