What this page shows
Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2011 INFINITI QX, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report. These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.
Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

MY WIFE IS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY INCREASING IN SPEED OUT OF NOWHERE SHE HITS THE BRAKES AND IT CONTINUES TO INCREASE IN SPEED BOATS ON THE HIGHWAY AND ON CITY STREETS. THE BRAKES DO NOT WORK AS THE SPEED INCREASES ON THE SPEED PETAL SHE HAS TWO PUMP IT SEVERAL TIMES AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES BEFORE IT SLOWS DOWN. MY KIDS WERE IN THE CAR WITH HER WHEN THIS HAPPENED THEY HAD THEIR SEATBELTS ON AND THEY WERE THROWN FORWARD VERY VIOLENTLY AS THE BRAKES HAD TO BE APPLIED VERY VERY HARD TO GET IT TO SLOW DOWN.
Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.
Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
