Needs Improvement - 2004 Infiniti QX56
By cjaynes - January 10 - 11:36 amBeautiful car poor performance. The vehicle has terrible vibration in the roof. Since my purchase in June 2004 I have had several problems such as brakes, seats, handling, vibration, dvd, and back hatch. Dont waste your money. Infiniti clearly needs to work on the quality if they are going to compete in the luxury suv market. I want to get rid of mine but wouldnt want some other poor sucker get it.

What a disappointment! - 2004 Infiniti QX56
By jmu - January 23 - 10:00 amWe have owned this car for 2 1/2 months, and it has been in service 23 days! 3/4 tires needed replacing, navigation system doesnt work, paint came off front bumper when washing with a cloth, wood panel fell out of side door, drivers electric motor in window didnt work....The service dept. has been awesome, but Infiniti wont stand behind the quality (or lack there of) of their vehicles. We paid $14K extra to go with the Infiniti QX56 instead of Nissan Armada because of the quality issues we read in the consumer reviews. At least Infiniti has provided us with a car while ours has been in service! Issues with the car still remain.

Death Ride - 2004 Infiniti QX56
By SC - December 19 - 12:00 amPiece of junk. Brake judder with brake replacement plus brake failure times 2. Dealer unable to fix. Requires two trips to have anything fixed. Replaced door lock relay and windshield washer motor. Recalled for fire hazard from trailer light socket. Dealer refuses to fix rear window spray nozzle. Luckily able to avoid 2 crashes when brakes failed. Shakes, rattles and rolls. Drives like a tank. Steering wheel will not come back into place every time. A/C controls are terrible. Gas guzzler.

reliability - 2004 Infiniti QX56
By kareem rasheed - December 27 - 8:30 pmThis car has lot of flaws and it is painful to pay so much money and do not get reliability. It has been in shop many times for AC, brakes, heater, door locks. The engine makes grinding noise in spite of using super unleaded fuel.

Why did I go with something new - 2004 Infiniti QX56
By Steve Goldberg - June 20 - 8:43 amI got suckered into buying what I thought was a new luxury Japansese truck. I liked the exterior and the interior was not that bad to me coming from a Denali. This car shakes, rattles, rolls and I cannot believe it is no better built than my old GMC Denali. I do like the fact its very big and fast, what a nice engine. But Ive been to the dealer 8 times for various quality issues in less than 6 months.
