2019 INFINITI QX50

Filed Aug 31, 2026


To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally request immediate assistance regarding a serious failure in my INFINITI vehicle. The vehicle’s compressor stopped working with fewer than 60,000 miles driven, which is unacceptable for a new vehicle and raises significant concerns about manufacturing quality and safety. This failure is especially troubling because the vehicle has already been subject to multiple serious engine-related recalls number NHTSA Recall 25V-437. The air conditioning…

My 2021 Infiniti QX50 has suffered a catastrophic internal engine failure.

The power liftgate (automatic trunk) system on my 2019 Infiniti QX50 malfunctioned. After fully opening, the liftgate unexpectedly closed on its own without any warning beeps or resistance detection. This poses a severe safety risk. The heavy door struck my head, causing a physical injury (a severe bump/contusion). The vehicle and the affected components are available for inspection upon request. This problem has not yet been inspected, reproduced, or confirmed by a dealer, manufacturer,…

2022 INFINITI QX50

Filed Jul 25, 2026


While the vehicle was being operated under normal driving conditions, the hood unexpectedly disengaged and flew upward from the windshield side of the vehicle. This sudden and dangerous event substantially obstructed the driver's visibility and created an immediate risk of catastrophic injury, death, and property damage. Fortunately, no collision occurred; however, the potential consequences of such a failure are self-evident.
