On March 30, 2026, INFINITI of Naperville performed a multi-point inspection (RO 114984) on my 2025 Infiniti QX60 at 10,507 miles and measured both rear brake pads at 6mm. On October 13, 2026, at 15,467 miles, the same dealership measured both rear brake pads at 3mm - 3mm of wear in approximately 4,960 miles, evenly on both sides. This wear rate is far faster than normal and will require rear pad replacement far sooner than the normal 30,000-50,000 mile service life. When I asked the dealership what would cause...

both rear pads to wear at this rate, they stated it was normal wear and declined to provide any explanation or diagnosis. I declined their $415 rear pad replacement and rotor resurfacing quote pending a root-cause diagnosis. Premature rear brake pad wear reduces rear braking capacity and, if pads wear to the backing plate, can increase stopping distance. This appears to be a pattern: NHTSA complaints ODI 11704103, 11727670, 11752870, 11725766, and 11740699 document the same premature rear brake wear on 2022-2025 QX60s, and a class action (Iwan v. Nissan North America, M.D. Tenn.) alleges the same defect on the platform-sharing Nissan Pathfinder. No crash, fire, injury, or warning lamp occurred
I have owned this vehicle since August of 2021 and consider myself very familiar with the normal operation and performance of the vehicles propultion system. From August of 2021 through December of 2025: - I could operate the vehicle at highway speeds in full electric mode - I could reliably tell when the vehicle would transition to the internal combustion engine and how the vehicle would respond when it transitioned (a smooth transition) - I could have confidence in how the vehicle would accelerate when the gas...

pedal was pushed. I had the 68C recall performed on 12/23/25 and since the recall, the vehicle's propultion system has not been the same to the point where it is a safety concern. - I cannot operate the vehicle at highway speeds in full electric mode and in many cases cannot operate in electric at lower speeds. - When the vehicle transitions to internal combustion, the engine climbs to an unsafe RPM, then reduces RPM in stages until transitioning back to full electric. This process repeates iteslf over and over as if the vehicle is trying to find the right balance between electric and gas. These transitions cause unreliable fluctuations in speed and power and put unecessary strain on the engine. - There are times when I will go to accelerate and nothing will happen for a couple of seconds. This is particularly dangerous at intersections. - There are times when I will go to accelerate and the vehicle will start in electric for a second and then immediately jump to 4500 RPM on the internal combustion engine, jetting the vehicle forward in an unsafe manner. The dealership noted the behavior, but cannot identify any codes and the official message from Jepp is that this is "Normal Operation." I've driven this vehicle for over 5 years and over 60,000 miles. I can confirm that this is not normal, this is not how it always has been, and there has been a change made to the performance of the vehicle since the recall. I have videos of the behavior.
Driving down road started to hear a weird growling knocking sound and noticed a reduction of power. also noticed lower then normal oil pressure. Changed oil found metal shavings in the oil. sent to chevy dealership. Diagnosed "rod bearing failure" needs new engine.
exhaust flex pipe is cracked. Causes fumes of gas to be released through the crack. inspected by GMC Repair shop Vibrating noise started, then a few days later the smell of gas, and now yes the Engine light is on. This has been on going for about 3 weeks.
While driving down the road the vehicle lost all power and left my wife in a dangerous position on the road. The vehicle was just in for service 4 days before and we were told the vehicle had no error codes. The vehicle has lost power on multiple occasions and we have had it at different dealer service departments where ford trained technicians continue to tell us nothing is wrong with the vehicle. However, I find the vehicle to be unsafe and unfit for the road.
The contact owns a 2023 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that the vehicle was repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 26V363000 (Steering); however, while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle experienced a total loss of motive power. Warning messages stating "Service Shifter" and "Check Hydraulics" along with other unknown warning lights displayed on the instrument panel. Additionally, the contact felt that the recall repairs contributed to the failure. The vehicle was towed to the same local dealer; however, the failure could not be identified. The manufacturer was notified of the failure via email and telephone. The failure mileage was approximately 49,000.
The little cubby in my car where I keep my phone charger literally sliced the side of my finger open. I was just reaching in there like I normally would, and somehow the edge caught my finger and cut it so badly that it took a piece of the side of my finger off. I never would have imagined something as simple as reaching into the little compartment in my car could cause an injury like that. It happened so quickly, and it honestly caught me completely off guard. Now I'm sitting here with my finger hurting, wondering how something in my own car could be sharp enough to do that much damage!
I was with my 5 year old daughter in my car and she almost got crushed in the 3rd row because the button got accidentally pressed when loading items in the trunk and the seat wouldn't stop. I could've lost my daughter.
The PCS2 (Power Conversion System) is an integrated power module that handles AC home charging, DC-DC conversion for the 48V low-voltage systems, and PowerShare (V2L/V2H). • The Defect: Early units (mostly pre-2026 and Foundation Series models) suffer from thermal fatigue in the AC charging MOSFETs. • Symptoms: AC charging speeds drop from 48 amps to 24 amps, error codes like PCS2_a136_cycloAMosfetHealthCheckFailed appear, and AC/home charging eventually fails completely.
I was in a collision with another car. The brakes failed.\n Going over 3540 miles per hour, airbag and passenger side and drivers side neither one deployed.
I am the first owner, when i start lane keep assist feature, everytime it steers the car right side, after 10 seconds when it shows the light on dash to (keep your hands on steering wheel) i have steer hard to keep in middle of lane and you have to do it 3 to 4 times to use the lane keep assist feature accurately.
My 2025 Lincoln Aviator is experiencing a serious and dangerous malfunction involving the forward collision detection and automatic emergency braking system. The vehicle falsely detects an object or obstruction in front of it when the roadway is completely clear and then unexpectedly slams on the brakes without any driver input. This is not simply a false collision warning. The vehicle physically applies the brakes aggressively, despite there being no vehicle, pedestrian, or other obstruction requiring emergency...

braking. I have nearly been rear-ended by other vehicles as a direct result of these unexpected braking events. When the system activates, my vehicle abruptly decelerates without warning, leaving drivers behind me with little time to react. These incidents have placed me in immediate danger of being struck from behind and potentially causing a serious multi-vehicle collision. This is particularly concerning because I have no way of predicting when the vehicle will suddenly apply the brakes. I should not have to fear being rear-ended while driving simply because my vehicle's collision avoidance system incorrectly identifies an obstacle that does not exist. This malfunction was specifically reported to Courtesy Lincoln in Portland, Oregon, where my vehicle remained for nearly 30 days. I was informed that software updates had been performed to correct the problem. However, after the vehicle was returned to me, the same dangerous malfunction continued. The vehicle still falsely detects nonexistent obstacles and unexpectedly slams on the brakes.
Unpredictable Steering and Potential Loss of Vehicle Control My 2025 Lincoln Aviator is experiencing a serious and ongoing steering malfunction that makes it extremely difficult to maintain control of the vehicle. While driving, the steering unexpectedly pulls aggressively to one side, almost as though the lane-keeping assistance system is attempting to force the vehicle in a direction I am not intending to travel. This occurs on smooth, level road surfaces as well as uneven roads. It is not limited to grooves,...

road imperfections, or specific driving conditions. I frequently have to make steering corrections to prevent the vehicle from drifting out of its lane. The problem becomes significantly worse at highway speeds. There have been instances where the vehicle has pulled so aggressively toward the concrete median barrier that I genuinely feared I was going to collide with the wall. I have also feared the vehicle pulling into adjacent lanes occupied by other motorists. I feel as though I am fighting against the steering system simply to keep the vehicle traveling straight. This creates a serious risk of losing control and being involved in a high-speed collision. I reported this concern to Courtesy Lincoln in Portland, Oregon. My vehicle remained at the dealership for nearly 30 days, during which I was informed that software updates were performed and that the problem had been corrected. Unfortunately, the same dangerous steering behavior returned after the vehicle was released.
My van died suddenly and completely while I was driving in the center lane of a 5 lane urban freeway on July 8, 2026. Would not re-start. I did not exit the vehicle. Traffic was heavy. The situation was dangerous and scary. Called 911: CHP and AAA both arrived with tow trucks after about 10 minutes. I was relieved to not have been rear ended. CHP and AAA men had to take apart something on the dashboard in order to get van into neutral and manually push the van to the side of the road, while shutting down the right...

3 lanes of the freeway. All of us were in danger of being hit by traffic. Van was towed to AAA service station nearby. Batteries both 98-100%. Plenty of gas at the time of the incident. AAA service station replaced the starter, but their diagnostic did not show any other problems. This did not make sense to me or to anyone else I spoke with. When I picked up van Aug 19 after being out of the state, the AAA shop recommended that I drive it, and see if further problems. I felt unsafe, not sure what to do. Decided to drive near home on neighborhood streets. Van worked ok on suburban streets for about 6 weeks, then radio died one night (worked after turning off van, opening and closing door and restarting) and interior cabin light came on repeatedly without me turning it on, on another occasion, even after I turned it off. I am taking to Chrysler dealer for additional diagnostic on Friday. Part of my delay is affordability, as the dealer will also do a diagnostic (over $300) which they say is better than non-dealer ones.
There is a rattling or knocking noise coming from the engine, and the vehicle experiences a loss of power whenever I accelerate. While driving, the collision warning symbol was flashing on the dashboard. The vehicle was inspected by an Infiniti dealership, and their diagnosis was that no metal debris was found in the engine oil pan, but the VCR actuator needs to be replaced. I also took the vehicle to an independent repair shop specializing in Infiniti vehicles. They recommended taking it back to the dealership...

for repairs because there is a recall campaign related to engine replacement due to the damage found, and there is a possibility that the engine may need to be replaced. The independent repair shop provided the following notes: Notes: Upon arrival, the vehicle had the Check Engine, ABS, Brake, Traction Control (TRAC), Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), SRS, Airbag, and other warning lights illuminated on the dashboard.
The suspension either bent and warped, or the bolts were not installed properly and the sway arm (piece running from tire to frame) came loose or was on its way to coming off.
Clunking sound in steering wheel caused by disintegration of EPS rubber coupler. This is due to a design flaw in the OEM part where the rubber turns gummy.
Since a 2026 over-the-air software update, every time I disengage Tesla Full Self-Driving (Supervised) while driving, on any road and at any speed, the center touchscreen shows a large pop-up titled "Why did you intervene?" with four buttons (Navigation, Parking, Critical, Other) and a voice-message option. It covers about a third of the display, including navigation, media controls and, during parking, the camera view. It does not clear on its own while driving; it stays until the driver taps an option or shifts...

into Park. Photos attached. Disengagements happen at the most demanding moments: correcting the system, avoiding a hazard, merging or parking. This prompt draws the driver's eyes and hand to the touchscreen at exactly those moments, on every disengagement and several times per drive. I believe this creates a foreseeable visual-manual distraction risk and conflicts with NHTSA's Visual-Manual Driver Distraction Guidelines. This is a particular safety concern because I regularly drive this vehicle with young children on board. Any distraction at the moment I take over from FSD puts them at risk. There is no setting to disable this prompt; the only way to avoid it is to stop using FSD, which we paid for. The car is collecting training feedback from drivers in real time at the expense of attention to the road. I request that NHTSA review this and that Tesla make the prompt dismissible, defer it until the vehicle is parked, or make it optional. Reproducible on every FSD disengagement; not inspected by a dealer. Vehicle software 2026.27.11, FSD (Supervised) v14.3.10.
Subject: Safety Complaint - Intermittent Infotainment Screen and Backup Camera Failure - 2026 Kia Sorento Hybrid I am experiencing an ongoing issue with my 2026 Kia Sorento Hybrid X-Line SX Prestige AWD. Almost every time I start my vehicle, the entire right-hand infotainment display remains completely black for approximately five minutes before suddenly turning on and functioning normally. During this time, the audio system continues playing music, and the instrument cluster, including the speedometer and...

gauges, functions normally. However, the infotainment screen remains completely black, even when the vehicle is shifted into Reverse. As a result, I have no access to the rearview camera display. This has created a serious safety concern. On one occasion, I nearly backed into another vehicle because I could not see it behind me. Fortunately, my vehicle's automatic emergency braking system activated and prevented a collision. This issue now occurs almost daily and is not an isolated incident. I am concerned that the malfunction could eventually result in a collision, particularly if the automatic braking system fails to intervene. I am requesting that Kia investigate this recurring defect, determine whether other vehicles are affected, and provide a permanent repair under warranty. Given that the malfunction disables an important safety feature, I believe this issue deserves immediate attention.
