  • Comfortable Car! - 2013 Infiniti JX
    By -

    I traded my 2007 GX 470 for a JX 35; I couldnt be much happier. Ive had my JX for 2 weeks now and loving my new SUV. Its really comfortable and easy to drive. The interior looks expensive and classy. Great technology; love the 360 degree camera.

  • Not thrilling but nice - 2013 Infiniti JX
    By -

    We did a lot of research before deciding on the JX and we have been driving it for about 3 weeks. We are leasing it so this review is based upon a fully loaded model (every package, MSRP was $58k). I will say it is a perfect, flat-land cruiser for mom. I love the interior design and appointments. The exterior, i think, is the most flaterring - GMC, Acura, Honda & Toyota all just look the same; the JX has style. We live in moderate hills in the SF Bay Area and the JX really stinks on the gas milage - we avg 14 mpg. Also backing up the driveway is very sluggish, must be the CVT. My wife says "its just not peppy and seems sluggish" however once on the flats its fine.

  • Poor fuel economy - 2013 Infiniti JX
    By -

    Ive been driving the car for about 500 miles and I get under 12 mpg combined highway/city in Sport mode. What is even more outrageous is that if I drive in normal or eco mode all I get is under 9 mpg. Is this other owners experience or this particular vehicle has an issue? Planning to take it back to dealership to check whats going on. Also, sometimes the satellite radio reception in poor? Anybody else having this issue?

  • multiple repairs without satisfaction - 2013 Infiniti JX
    By -

    I purchased my car in November 2012. Within a few months, I had a problem with a rattle underneath the back seat. After taking it for repair, the shop informed me that they fixed the problem. The problem recurred again and this time they informed me that they had to remove the dash to fix the problem. The car has been back for repair five times for the same issue without addressing the problem successfully. My efforts to have the manufacturer buy back have been fruitless. This car is a a disappointment and the customer service is very poor. This is not what I expected after spending so much much for a luxury car. Customer care service did a very poor job in dealing with my problem.

  • Not So Great... - 2013 Infiniti JX
    By -

    I have 7000 miles on the new JX and would not buy again. The JX looks good, yes the interior is nice but the performance is lacking in a vehicle of this price range. The JX struggles.. If you have not driven a vehicle with a CVT transmission Do Your Homework. It is awkward compared to a traditional transmission. The engine will rev at times unexpected ,it is much louder, and you get the feeling of downshifting. They give you a selector switch that you can turn to sport mode to make it feel like a traditional transmission (not) Understanding it is SUV/ crossover, it does not take to turns well comparable. Bottom line at this price It underperforms. Would take my CX9 Back tomorrow.

  • CVT kills this truck! - 2013 Infiniti JX
    By -

    Bought this car in May for my wife, she loved it from the first time she saw it on the commercials durring the NCAA tournament. I have to qualify my review by letting you know that my wife loves this car and its by far her favorite family car that weve owned. The JX is packed with technology and is quite a good looking car. Its very well thought out and the design and tech features are very intuitive. The performance of the car is another story. By 2013 standards this car is simply underpowered. The constant drone of the CVT as is searches/skips gears is annoying to say the least. Infiniti should take their "mulligan" and come out with an upgraded engine and ditch the CVT for 2014

  • Wow!!! The JX is loaded!! - 2013 Infiniti JX

  • Positive First Impressions with the JX - 2013 Infiniti JX
    By -

    I just picked up my new JX this week and my initial impressions are very favorable. My JX is the Emerald Graphite AWD with the premium package. This is my second Infiniti (2007 FX35). The fit and finish is impeccable. The emerald paint is a deep metallic rich, subtly changing hue in different lights. The java interior is beautiful, as well as very comfortable. There is plenty of interior room, including headroom. 3rd row seat is low, but roomy. The floor is level throughout, and plenty of visibility all around. The controls are well placed. This car is clearly designed for quiet and comfort. By design, it does not have the same performance & handling of other Infinitis. But, loads of tech!

  • what a disappointment - 2013 Infiniti JX
    By -

    Been fighting blown fuses since delivery. Five times to dealer still blows. The dash trim is now fading, wood look now has a creamy line through it and a part of the center console. Live 200 miles from dealer. Wants me to make to trips to diagnose the dash problem then come back and replace plastic. Customer Relations will "mentor the dealer to improve his response to customer problems" This non event is turning out to be a nightmare. In addition, delaing with the Affairs office is like dealing with terrible attitudes. All this at 6900 miles
