5/5 Overall
NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating
Complaints for the 2023 QX60 are spread across several systems rather than concentrated in one area. Electrical issues draw the most consistent attention, with owners describing a range of malfunctions: sonar warning systems triggering falsely at highway speeds, door locks engaging unexpectedly while the vehicle is in use, and mirror components failing. A few owners report engine-related concerns, though the specifics vary. Lane departure complaints are also present in smaller numbers. Outside the named systems, owners describe a vehicle lurching forward after being shifted into park, rear brake pads worn down by around 20,000 miles, and a sunroof that shattered without any reported impact. The door-lock behavior shows up in more than one account, with owners describing the vehicle locking itself with occupants or keys still inside.

By System
The 2023 INFINITI QX60 has 3 recalls, the most serious involving the driver's seat, where broken welds can leave the seat unsecured and unable to hold the driver properly in a crash.
The second recall also involves seating: the second-row adjustable seat can slide past its intended rearmost position and then become stuck or fail to lock in place, which means it may not hold a rear passenger securely during a collision. Taken together, both seat recalls cover the front and middle rows of the cabin and point to the same underlying risk of inadequate restraint when it matters most. On the lighting side, the adaptive headlight system can tilt the headlights downward at higher speeds, narrowing the cone of light ahead of the vehicle and reducing how far down the road the driver can see at night.
