5/5 Overall
NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating
Complaints filed on the 2024 INFINITI QX60 are relatively few, but the forward collision avoidance system draws the most attention. Owners report that automatic emergency braking and parking collision warning systems fail to activate when expected, specifically, the system not responding during low-speed maneuvering situations where a warning or braking intervention would normally be anticipated. Visibility-related complaints describe washer fluid repeatedly draining from the reservoir without explanation, leaving the windshield wash system inoperative while driving. Engine complaints are isolated but notable: one owner reports the engine shutting off and the transmission shifting to neutral at highway speed without any prior warning, and a separate report describes the engine stalling shortly after a car wash, with the owner noting power loss and a complete stall while underway.

By System
The 2024 INFINITI QX60 has 4 recalls, the most serious involving the driver's airbag inflator and two separate seatbelt pretensioner defects that can each reduce occupant protection in a crash.
The airbag inflator can absorb moisture over time, causing the driver's airbag to deploy with the wrong force or in the wrong direction during a collision, leaving the driver without adequate protection. On the restraint side, two distinct issues affect the front seatbelts. The driver seatbelt pretensioner may not have been assembled correctly, meaning it can fail to pull the belt tight at the moment of impact. Separately, the lap belt pretensioner in the left front seat may be missing a securing rivet, leaving it loose and unable to hold the occupant firmly in a crash. Prior repair attempts for the pretensioner concerns do not appear to be a factor here, as these reflect distinct manufacturing issues across different components. The fourth recall covers the Adaptive Front-Light System, which can incorrectly angle the headlights downward when the vehicle reaches higher highway speeds, shrinking the visible road ahead and reducing the driver's reaction time to obstacles or curves at night.
