2011 INFINITI QX56 Recalls, Complaints & Safety

A subframe is a key structural component of every car. As such, it stands to reason that it should last as long as the car itself. Doing much research on this model suspension and subframes become rusted as I didn’t know this when purchasing making it very unsafe . I experienced being involved in almost 2 accidents. Very dangerous. Subframe split in half and suspension. Something needs to be done as a lot of people are going thru this issue and Infiniti slogan claims “new horizons” by no means new horizon going to heaven by driving their vehicles.

Unknown. Timing chain issue. When car is started it makes a noise for about 10 min then goes away

Catalytic Converter, A/F Sensor failed on the interstate when I was driving with kids in the car. Took vehicle to the nearest dealer only to be told that this is a known problem with these vehicles and it was going to cost me $3,100 to repair.

The rear controls arms and cradle mount were riddled with severe fissures, causing car to sway dramatically. The level of component failure posed a severe safety risk to me. My mechanic was shocked by the amount of failure to these major rear suspension components. I have included photos and receipts for repairs.

I'M CURRENTLY DEALING WITH THE TIMING CHAIN NIGHTMARE SO MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD AND ARE HAVING. OF COURSE JUST AS MOST OF THE OTHERS I'M OUT OF WARRANTY AND REALLY FRUSTRATED THAT INFINITI HASN'T STEPPED UP TO THE PLATE TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM PROPERLY AS OPPOSED TO RENAMING THE QX56 TO QX 80 TO SAVE THEMSELVES, LEAVING CONSUMERS SCRAMBLING WITH EXPENSIVE TIME CONSUMING FIXES TO A KNOWN DEFECT ON THEIR PART. WHERE'S THE ACCOUNTABILITY ON THEIR PART, DO A CERTAIN NUMBER OF PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE OR BE INJURED BEFORE THE CONSUMERS ARE PROVIDED WITH THE PROPER ASSISTANCE? WHO REALLY LOOKS OUT FOR US? A recall was done in 2016 obviously they need to expand the Vin number

1.-THE DASH BOARD IS UNLEASHING BY THE SUN. ( MELTING ) 2.-THE PAINT IS RISING MY SUV JUST HAVE 70K MILES IT 2011 ( TO DAY OCT 03/2019)

A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT (CEL) APPEARED ON MY 2011 INFINITI QX56 AT 89K MILES. ERROR IS A BAD CATALYTIC CONVERTER ON BANK 1. THE EXACT MESSAGE ON ODB2 READER IS: P0420 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD BANK 1. THIS ISSUE JUST HAPPENED AFTER I JUST REPLACED A BAD O2 SENSOR AFTER A CEL.

LESS THAN A YEAR AFTER I GOT THE TIMING DEBACLE FIXED, I GET A "CHECK ENGINE LIGHT" ON 2011 QX56. ACCORDING TO MY WARRANTY APPROVED MECHANIC BOTH CATS WERE GONE AND WERE NOT COVERED. THIS COMPLAINT IS THE BEGINNING OF MY GOAL OF GETTING ASSURANT OR INFINITI TO OWN THIS PROBLEM SINCE THE COMBINED CA AND FED CAT WARRANTY IS 150K MILES. MY WARRANTY SHOULD COVER.

I PURCHASED MY 2011 INFINITI QX56IN JANUARY OF 2015 WITH 36,6036 MILES ON IT. I TAKE EXCELLENT CARE OF MY VEHICLE MECHANICALLY AND CLEANLINESS. ON AUGUST 17TH, 2019 MY BACK A FRAME AND OTHER REAR SUSPENSION BROKE DUE TO CORROSION AND THE METAL SPLIT APART. MY UNDER CARRIAGE ALSO LOOKS LIKE AND OLD CAR. MY CAR IS WASHED TWICE A WEEK EVEN IN THE WINTER TO REMOVE THE SALT. THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY OF MY WARRANTIES. IT IS GOING TO COST ME $5,200.00 TO MAKE THIS REPAIR. I HAD TWO CHEVY SUBURBANS THAT I PUT 295,000 MILES ON AND SOLD THEM TO FRIENDS AND THEY ARE STILL DRIVING THEM WITH NO ISSUES LIKE THIS. I WILL NEVER BUY A INFINITI AGAIN! I NOTICED THIS WHEN I WAS APPROACHING THE BACK OF MY VEHICLE AFTER PLAYING HOCKEY. SO IT MUST HAVE HAPPENED AFTER I PARKED THE CAR.

THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER BANK 1 NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE WITH TURN 2011-2013 INFINITY QX 56 AND INFINITY SHOULD HAVE ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE FAULTY CONVERTERS.
