2012 INFINITI QX56 Recalls, Complaints & Safety

The contact owns a 2012 Infiniti QX56. The contact stated that while driving at 56 MPH, the vehicle slowed down and failed to respond as intended. An oil change was performed; however, the failure persisted. The contact stated that the high-pressure fuel pump was leaking, causing the timing chain to fail. The check engine warning light illuminated, and the failure progressed, causing the vehicle to stall. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by a dealer or independent mechanic. The vehicle failed on the side of the road and was towed to the residence. The contact used an OBD scanner and retrieved DTC: P0021, P0011, and P0300. The manufacturer was contacted about the failure, and Customer Service Program Number: P6305. The VIN was provided, and the contact was informed that the vehicle was not covered under the campaign and that the campaign had expired. The failure mileage was approximately 175,000.

While driving at highway speed, rear of vehicle suddenly became uncontrolled and caused vehicle to swerve dangerously. If a vehicle would have been in the adjacent lane an accident would have occurred. Upon initial inspection, the left rear lower control arm failed catastrophically due to rust rendering the vehicle undrivable. Driver and passenger were put at risk as a result of this incident. Deeper inspection revealed the right rear control arm was also compromised due to rust as well as the two forward mounting points of the modular rear suspension cradle (framework). No warning lights appeared, however the steering wheel did begin correcting to the right just prior to event, similar to heavy wind situation. Parts have not been inspected by manufacturer. Pictures attached. Parts are available for inspection upon request.

I have an engine light on as a result of 2 bad catalytic converters that need to be replaced. The vehicle has been inspected the infinite dealer maintenance dept. This poses a safety risk of this vehicle shutting down in the midst of driving

I got Code : P0011 (my mechanic said that timing chain has to be replaced) I saw that Infiniti run the campaign as below : Dated July 15, 2016 VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN 2011 – 2013 QX56 AND M56; TIMING CHAIN CAMPAIGN ID #: P6305 APPLIED VEHICLES: 2011-2013 QX56 (Z62) 2011-2013 M56 (Y51) Check Service Comm to confirm campaign eligibility 2011-2013 QX56 IMPORTANT: The following service procedure for 2011-2013 QX56 is an abbreviated version of the Electronic Service Manual (ESM) procedure to replace the timing chains and related components. The Claims Information is based on this abbreviated procedure. I called Infiniti and they said that this campaign was for limited time and we called you but i never heard or aware about this otherwise I would have got it done . I have all the service record serviced everything from Infiniti dealer and the best maintanace Apart from that I get below code also which is makes me to think I did mistake buying Infiniti. P0300 P0011 C1118 C1130 C1A26 C1A14 C1a04 Buying car with full upgrade, waste of 98K .

The contact owns a 2012 Infiniti QX56. The contact stated that while driving at high speeds, the vehicle shook and then lost motive power. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and diagnosed with fuel pump failure. The dealer informed the contact that the fuel pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was then towed to an independent mechanic and diagnosed with timing chain failure. The independent mechanic informed the contact that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

I own a 2012 QX56. Check engine light comes on and I take it to the dealer. It's the Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (catalytic covers - P0430 code) I was warned before I bought this vehicle about the cats going bad. Infiniti dealer, that I purchased the truck from said "this vehicle has been serviced at an Infiniti dealer since day one. Every possible service that was needed was completed. The owner took immaculate car of this truck. You won't have any issues." So tell me, if this vehicle was driven exactly how it was supposed to be and yet at 113K miles the cats go bad, why isn't there a recall?? This is a "top of the line SUV" and yet it needs $4500.00+ in engine repairs at just over 113K miles. Infiniti needs to step up and take responsibility for this issue. If dealerships are warning you about this issue, obviously there is a KNOWN issue.

My 2012 Infiniti QX56 has a loud rattling noise coming from the engine. This started around Oct 2020 and comes and go. It has got worse over the last month or so and has started stalling and acting like it doesn't want to go. A few times the car will start shaking while I'm driving. It has been checked out and codes for converter and timing chain are there. Engine light is on. I drive this car with my 2 children and am afraid of the safety issue. I know there is numerous others having these same 2 issues with my year and make of car. Spoke with Infiniti Corp. and they will not do anything about it because my VIN is not under the recall. However, the vehicles with this issue that have been repaired under the recall have the same engine and same issues that I'm having. I think all vehicles in 2012 regardless of VIN should be under the recall as I'm seeing so many with these issues.

HAD NO PRIOR ISSUES, DRIVING DOWN THE HWYAT 65 MILES PER HR.. CAR FAILED. COSTED TO SIDE OF ROAD MADE IT TO REPAIR SHOP AND THE FUEL PUMP WENT OUT, WHICH AFFECTED THE TIMMING CHAIN AND BROKE THE TEETH, WHICH HAS AFFECTED THE MOTOR. THIS IS A DESIGN DEFECT THAT HUNDRED OTHER FOLKS ARE HAVING. I COULD HAVE LOST MY LIFE WITH THIS VEHICLE

MY AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM. THE ISSUE THAT THEY REPORTED TO ME WAS "PAST CODE FOR AIR BAG PASSENGER SIDE: WILL NEED TO REPLACE DIAGNOSTICS MODULE TO BEGIN DIAGNOSIS."

THE PAINT ON MY 2012 QX 56 INFINITI IS PEELING REALLY BAD. I'VE SPOKE WITH SOMEONE AT THE COOPERATE LEVEL AND WAS TOLD THEIR WAS A RECALL ON THEM. THE DEALERSHIP WAS SUPPOSE TO REPAINT THE WHOLE VEHICLE, BUT I WAS NEVER CONTACTED. WHEN I SPOKE TO THE ASSOCIATE & MANGER, I WAS TOLD THERE WASN'T ANYTHING THEY COULD DO.

THE PAINT IS PEELING OFF THE TOP OF THE ROOF ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BY THE ROOF RACKS, IN FRONT BY THE WINDSHIELD THERE IS A SPOT THAT IS LARGER THAN A HALF DOLLAR AND ON THE DRIVER SIDE REAR A SPOT ABOUT 6-8 INCHES IN DIAMETER.

AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. *TR

Crash

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 INFINITI QX56. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BATTERY FAILED PREMATURELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER, AND AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED. THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE A FAILURE CODE THEREFORE, THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE UNKNOWN DEALER AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BATTERY FAILURE COULD BE CAUSED BY PARASITIC DRAIN OR A RELAY FAILURE. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83,000.*DT*JB

I TOOK MY 2012 QX56 INFINITI TO INFINITI IN AUSTIN TEXAS AND THEY TOLD ME BOTH OF MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER OR OUT THIS NEED TO BE A RECALL ISSUE WANT ME TO SPEND OVER $4,000 FOR BOTH TO REPLACE. *TR

A WHINE OR HISS WHEN I START THE VEHICLE AND IT GOES AWAY AFTER ABOUT 10-15 MINUTES. IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE A TIMING CHAIN ISSUE BY MY MECHANIC. THERE APPEARS TO BE A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FOR THE 2012 QX56, BUT NOT FOR MY SPECIFIC VIN. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THE NHTSA ALLOWS A MANUFACTURER TO ONLY INCLUDE A PORTION OF THE 2012 MODEL AND NOT OTHERS. THIS IS A SAFETY RECALL! DOES SOMEONE AT THE NHTSA RECONCILE THE 2012 QX56 VEHICLES SOLD VERSUS THE VINS ELIGIBLE TO BE COVERED UNDER THIS SAFETY RECALL NOTICE? OBVIOUSLY, OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM! I SUGGEST THE NHTSA TAKE SAFETY RECALL NOTICES MORE SERIOUS AND HOLD MANUFACTURERS ACCOUNTABLE!!!

MY WIFE DROVE TO MY DAUGHTERS SCHOOL SCHOOL FOR A BASKETBALL PRACTICE. SHE LOCKED THE DOORS USING THE KEYFOB LIKE ALWAYS. WHEN SHE GOT BACK TO THE CAR SHE UNLOCK THE DOORS USING THE KEYFOB, BUT THIS TIME THE DRIVERS DOOR DID NOT OPEN. SHE TRIED USING THE DOOR ENTRY BUTTON ON THE HANDLE WHICH DID NOT WORK. SHE THEN GOT IN THRU THE PASSENGER DOOR AND TRIED TO PULL THE HANDLE TO OPEN THE DOOR AND THAT DID NOT WORK. FROM THE INSIDE OF THE CAR SHE HAD TO CLIMB OVER THE CENTER CONSOLE TO GET INTO THE DRIVER SEAT. I CHECKED THE OPERATION MYSELF WHEN SHE GOT HOME AND I COULD NOT FIND A WAY TO OPEN THE DOOR. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE DESIGN OF THE PLASTIC ACTUATOR AND ITS COMPONENT. WITH THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS PROBLEM, I AM SURPRISED THERE ISN'T A RECALL SIMILAR TO THE TAKATA AIRBAGS SINCE THIS WOULD NO PASS AN INSPECTION AND WOULD BE A HAZARD IN THE CASE OF AN ACCIDENT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 INFINITY QX56. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG COVER WAS CRACKING. THERE WERE NO RECALLS AND THE ISSUE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE AIR BAG COULD DEPLOY WITHOUT WARNING SINCE IT WAS CRACKED AND POSSIBLY INJURIE THE PASSENGER. THE CONTACT WENT TO INFINITI OF CORAL GABLES (2701 S LE JEUNE RD CORAL GABLES, FL 33134 (786) 899-5127) WHO OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE OR DIAGNOSES AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO THE MANUFACTURER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION AFTER DRIVING TO A STORE OR APPT. AND PARK . GO OUT TO A COMPLETELY DEAD VEHICLE. JUMP START TO GET GOING MAY GO FOR A MONTH OR SO AND IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN WITH NO WARNING.

MY 2012 INFINITI QX56 NEEDS A NEW TIMING CHAIN AND INIFINITI SAID THERE WAS A RECALL BUT NOT ON MY PARTICULAR VIN NUMBER. IT SEEMS ODD THAT I HAVE THE YEAR AND MAKE OF THE CAR WITH THE EXACT REPAIRS NEEDED AS THE RECALL BUT THEY AREN'T COVERING IT.

THE FUEL GAUGE MAY BE SLOW TO REGISTER, FAIL TO READ FULL WHEN THE GAS TANK IS ACTUALLY FULL, OR READ INACCURATELY. WHEN FILLING GAS TANK TO FULL, AFTER 30 MILES THE GAUGE IS READING 2/3 OF A TANK OR LESS WHILE THE MILES TO EMPTY READING IS STILL HIGH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 INFINITI QX56. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND FAILED TO ACCELERATE. IN ADDITION, THERE WAS A HUMMING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WEST HOUSTON INFINITI (12200 KATY FWY, HOUSTON, TX 77079, (281) 589-8900) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKES WERE WEARING DOWN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEALER DID NOT DIAGNOSE THE HUMMING NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE POWER STEERING PUMP WAS REPLACED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE HUMMING NOISE RECURRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MECHANIC CALLED THE INFINITI DEALER AND WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS DUE TO THE TIMING CHAIN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

I HAD MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER REPLACED BACK IN DECEMBER 2016 . THERE WAS A RECALL FOR CATALYTIC CONVERTER SO I HAD IT REPLACED. NOW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS BACK ON SO I GOT IT CHECKED OUT AND WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AGAIN. 35K MILES LATER

MY 2012 INFINITI SEEMS TO BE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM OTHER INFINITI QX56 OWNERS ARE HAVING. STARTS WITH A LOUD HISSING/WHISTLING SOUND WHICH SEEMS TO GO AWAY AFTER 10-20 MINUTES OF DRIVING AND THE CAR FEELS JUST FINE. TODAY ALL MY DASHBOARD LIGHTS CAME ON AND MY HUSBAND TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE INFINITI DEALER, JUST TO HAVE THE MECHANIC RETURN A FEW MINUTES LATER TO INFORM US IT IS A TIMING CHAIN ISSUE. I AM HUGE ON RESEARCHING AND AFTER A FEW HOURS OF RESEARCH AND REALIZING THAT SOME OF THESE MODELS HAVE HAD RECALLS ISSUED ACCORDING TO VIN# FOR THIS SAME EXACT ISSUE, I AM IN AWE ON WHY THIS RECALL IS ONLY BEING APPLIED TO SPECIFIC VIN #'S AND NOT EVERY SINGLE 2012 QX56 MODEL. EVERY COMPLAINT LISTED ONLINE FROM OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES LIST THE SAME EXACT ISSUE. HOW ARE WE BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR A MORE THAN OBVIOUS MANUFACTURING PROBLEM.

TAKATA INFLATORS THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING ON THE HIGHWAY AND EVEN AFTER ACCELERATING IT WON'T RUN ENOUGH TO GET PAST TRAFFIC WHILE CHANGING LANE AND CAUSING SEVERELY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS.

WAS DRIVING HOME, A/C WAS ON, ALL LIGHTS WAS ON, ALL OF A SUDDENLY LOST OF POWER TO THE ENGINE AND WHILE GOING UP HILL, SO I FLOOR IT SO THE VEHICLE SO I CAN GET PAST OVER THE HILL THEN I STARTED TO SMELL SOMETHING THROUGH THE VENTS LIKE IT WAS ON FIRE COMING FROM THE ENGINE BAY SO I PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE POP THE HOOD BUT DIDN'T SEE NO FIRE, THEN WHEN I TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE BACK UP IT WOULDN'T SO I WAITED FOR FEW MINUTES AND TRIED AGAIN, THE VEHICLE STARTED BACK UP SO I WENT ON DRIVING AGAIN BUT IT DIDN'T SHOW ANY THING ON THE DASH NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AT ALL. IT DONE IT AGAIN LOSE OF POWER TO THE ENGINE AND I STARTED SMELLING SOMETHING BURNING LIKE METAL COMING FROM THE VENTS AGAIN LUCKY I WAS CLOSE TO HOME WHEN IT DONE IT AGAIN, I SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND PUT THE SCANNER ON IT, IT THROW OUT 3 CODES BUT IT NEVER SHOWED UP ON THE DASH SAYING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AT ALL. FOR THE 3 CODES ONE WAS FOR FUEL PUMP OTHER WAS FOR 02 SENSOR AND THE OTHER WAS ECM I BELIEVE, WISH I WROTE THEM ALL DOWN.

I HAVE ISSUES WITH AIR COMPRESSOR AND TIMING CHAIN THAT JUST RANDOMLY WENT OUT, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL OR CAMPAIGN FOR IT WITH INFINITI I CALLED INFINITI AND SENT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY STATED IT WAS NOT FOR MY ACTUAL VIN NUMBER BUT FOR SAME CAR WITH DIFFERENT VIN NUMBER, I ASKED THE QUESTION SINCE I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUE THAT HAS A RECALL ON ANOTHER VIN SAME VEHICLE SHOULDN'T YOUR COMPANY FIX ALL OF THAT YEAR VEHICLES MAKE AND MODEL. I WAS TOLD NO.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 130,000.

I OWN A QX56 AND I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON I WAS TOLD BOTH OF MY CATALYTIC CONVERTERS HAVE GONE OUT. I PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT THE SAY IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY. DOING A LIL RESEARCH ON IT I SEE PLENTY OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS PART SHOULD BE RECALLED OR AT LEAST COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. LOVE MY TRUCK BUT DEFINITELY NOT HAPPY RIGHT NOW. INFINITI NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS SITUATION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 INFINITI QX56. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE AND THE SERVICE ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AUSTIN INFINITI (8140 BURNET RD, AUSTIN, TX 78757) AND THE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS WERE REPLACED TWICE IN ONE YEAR. TWO YEARS LATER, THE SAME FAILURE OCCURRED.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 134,000.

THE FUEL RAIL PRESSURE CENTER MALFUNCTION IS NOT WORKING. CAR STALLS WHEN DRIVING - CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON

MY 2012 INFINITI QX56 WITH HBMC DRIVES VERY TWITCHY AND FEELS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. IT HADLES WELL ON PERFECTLY SMOOTH ROADS BUT IF THERE ARE ANY IMPERFECTIONS IT TRIES TO JUMP BACK AND FORTH IN THE LANE. I HAVE HAD THE WHEELS BALANCED AND ALIGNMENT PERFORMED AT THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER BUT THIS HAS NOT HELPED THE DRIVING CHARACTERISTICS. IF I AM COMING INTO A CORNER TOO FAST THE BACK END WILL SKIP ABOUT AS IF THE REAR ALIGNMENT IS OUT OF WHACK. I AM NOT SURE IF THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE 22" WHEELS BEING TOO HEAVY OR THE DRIVE BY WIRE BEING CALIBRATED TO SENSITIVE OR IF THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE SUSPENSION THE DEALER IS NOT SPOTTING. I FEEL LIKE I WANT TO TRADE THE CAR IN AFTER ONLY 4 MONTHS AND 8,000 MILES OF DRIVING IT.

AT 82,000 MILES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON INDICATING BOTH CATALYTIC CONVERTERS WERE BAD. THEY ARE WARRANTIED TO 80K MILES AND OF COURSE MANUFACTURER WOULD NOT HELP. THIS NEEDS A RECALL, GOOGLE QX56 CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND SEE HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE.

THERE'S A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE ONCE WE PARK THE VEHICLE. I DID SOME SEARCHES ONLINE AND NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL FOR NISSAN/INFINIT 2012 VEHICLES DUE TO 'THE FUEL PRESSURE SENSORS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN SUFFICIENTLY TIGHTENED DURING PRODUCTION. AS A RESULT, THE FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR MAY LOOSEN WITH VEHICLE USAGE AND CAUSE A FUEL LEAK. A FUEL LEAK IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE COULD CAUSE A VEHICLE FIRE.' THIS INCLUDES 2012 INFINIT QX56 WHICH IS THE VEHICLE WE HAVE BUT WHEN I SEARCH MY VEHICLES VIN, YOUR SITE TELLS ME THERE IS NO RECALL. I BELIEVE MORE VEHICLES THAN ORIGINALLY THOUGHT MIGHT HAVE THIS RECALL ISSUE.

I AM EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES THAT HAVE BEEN POSTED BY SEVERAL OTHERS ON THIS SITE WITH THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND THE BATTERY (JN8AZ2NE3C9****, JN8AZ2NF1C9****, AND JN8AZ2NC9C9****). I TOOK IT TO GET CHECKED OUT YESTERDAY AND JUST RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE TECHNICIAN. HE STATED THAT BOTH CATALYTIC CONVERTERS HAVE TO BE REPLACED AND IT WILL COST $5,200. IF THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE, WHY IS INFINITI NOT RECALLING THIS AS AN ISSUE? INSTEAD IT APPEARS THAT THEY ARE MAKING CONSUMERS PAY FOR MECHANICAL PROBLEMS THAT THEY ARE CLEARLY AWARE ARE MANUFACTURING PROBLEMS. I HAVE ALSO HAD TO CALL MY INSURANCE COMPANY TO TOW MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THE BATTERY WAS BEING COMPLETELY DRAINED. IT WAS TOWED TO INFINITI AFTER A FEW INCIDENTS BUT OF COURSE THEY COULD NOT TELL ME WHY I HAD TO KEEP BUYING BATTERIES FOR THE VEHICLE. IF INFINITI FAILS TO ACKNOWLEDGE THESE ISSUES, I WILL NO LONGER PURCHASE THEIR VEHICLES. THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS AND IRRESPONSIBLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 INFINITI QX56. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS EXITING THE VEHICLE, THE DOOR FAILED TO OPEN PROPERLY. IN ADDITION, THE TIMING CHAIN FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS LESS THAN 50,000.
