I opened my sunroof cover and the back of my headliner dropped. The back window is already small and the headliner hangs in front of it obstructing the view. It seems like everyone has this same issue or defect which is pretty pricey to repair.

2018 INFINITI QX30

Filed Oct 2, 2025


I am submitting a safety concern regarding the headliner in my vehicle. The rear portion of the headliner has detached and is sagging downward. As shown in the attached photo, the sagging material obstructs visibility through the rear window, significantly reducing the driver’s ability to see behind the vehicle. This creates a dangerous situation, particularly when reversing, changing lanes, or monitoring traffic approaching from the rear. The obstruction compromises rearward visibility, which…

2017 INFINITI QX30

Filed Aug 22, 2025


The driver’s side heater does not function correctly. When heat is turned on, the passenger side warms but the driver’s side only blows cold air. This prevents the windshield on the driver’s side from properly defrosting/defogging in cold or wet conditions, which creates a serious visibility hazard. Additionally, none of the steering wheel controls function due to a diagnosed clock spring failure. This failure also affects the horn and may impact the driver’s airbag connection. A…
