Brand-wide Infiniti Problem Patterns
The InTouch dual-screen infotainment system is known for being slow to boot, prone to freezing, and having limited smartphone connectivity on older models.
Models sharing Mercedes-Benz components (Q30, QX30, Q50 2.2d) inherit specific issues like timing chain tensioner failures and DCT gearbox sensor glitches.
The innovative Direct Adaptive Steering (DAS) on early Q50 models can feel "numb" or suffer from software glitches that require dealer-only recalibration.
Parts for bodywork and unique interior trim can be extremely expensive and difficult to source following the brand's withdrawal from the UK.
