  Unpredictable - 2014 Infiniti Q50
  By personalfeel - December 20 - 6:24 pm

  I traded in my 2013 Accord 4 cyl with the q50 hybrid. I regret for my decision. The acceleration is uneven especially at lower speed and in the city. The transition from hybrid to gasoline is abrupt and feel embarrassed because even the passengers can feel it and questioned if theres anything wrong with the car. The acceleration is unpredictable at lower speed and there were many times, I felt the car lunge forward when I only step on the pedal just a little and other times, I had to step on it hard before it will take off. After driving for 5000 miles, I felt the car a lot heavier than the accord and the handling is not that much better which I expected more from a RWD.

  Infiniti Q50 is the Worst Car - 2014 Infiniti Q50
  By nick5465 - September 20 - 9:35 pm

  I have been a long time Infiniti owner, I have owned the G37X, M56 and JX. I bought the Q50 when it first came out and has had these issues: 1. Slow responsiveness of touch screen. 2. GPS loosing signal and going to a blank screen. 3. Electric steering locking while in drive (major safety issue!) 4. Doors locking and not able to get into our out of the car! (major safety issue!) I signed a 39 month lease and I am stuck...hopefully things continue to break so the car can fit into the lemon law and I can get rid and break this lease. Based on these issues, I do not recommend the Infiniti Q50...wait 3 years before buying it.

  ELectronics Dont Work - Dont Buy - 2014 Infiniti Q50
  By peeg - November 4 - 6:33 am

  Although I enjoy the way the car drives, when I purchased it I was told that "software updates" would correct any problems. Bottom line, over a year later I have to reboot the computer (turn the car off and on and it takes 45 seconds to boot) because the center console is blank, radio doesnt work, sensors for detecting near objects (like my garage posts) dont stop beeping, radio cuts in and out (not reception), apps dont work.... need I say more? Car doesnt live up to billing which is why I bought it. I object to the way they rolled this out and would not buy another Infinity. Never had this problem with my prior Lexus.

  Not impressed - 2014 Infiniti Q50
  By yossarian7 - June 27 - 2:52 pm

  I have been driving this car for a month. It has excessive wind noise, engine noise and road noise -- far more than expected for a car in this price range. A harsh ride too. Severe torque steer as if it was a front-wheel-drive car. About 10% of the time, it doesnt recognize that I have the key in my pocket. About 25% of the time, it beeps a loud "alarm" when, after I park the car and turn it off, I open the door. Strong engine, but I am only averaging 17.4 MPG in mixed driving (pretty bad in my opinion for this small car).

  A compromised sport sedan - 2014 Infiniti Q50
  By ocd168 - September 6 - 1:25 am

  After leasing the car for about 6 months, 5k miles, heres my assessment. Accelerating from standstill is great, the electric motor really provides a smooth takeoff combined with the gas engine for the power. In "sport" mode it is fast (0-60 in 4.9s). However, taking turns or windy road is a different matter, I never feel the car is planted like the 3-series, car feels unstable at times. Sometimes the auto brake, lane departure tech get in the way of driving, I usually turn it off on local streets. The lane departure prevention is of little use because when the lane curves too much it wont correct for you. The touch-screen computer is extremely SLOW, needs a faster processor.

  Would love to have my G37 back - 2014 Infiniti Q50
  By ejs855 - December 30 - 9:58 am

  I made a hasty (and regrettable) decision to trade in my G37 6 months ago for the Q50. My payment is less, but since its costing me ALOT more in gas, it was hardly worth the trade. Really dislike the tedious (and not too reliable) navigation system (was told it would be a big improvement over the Navtech that I had in the G37 - I dont agree). I wish I had gone with a Lexus or BMW. I hardly see any Q50s on the road...I think I know why.

  Q50 IS A PIECE OF JUNK - 2014 Infiniti Q50
  By q50_junk - September 9 - 5:00 pm

  I wouldnt recommend this car to anyone. Within the first 8 months of ownership, my Q50 had software problems, a leaking differential seal, 2 bad sensors which produced daily error messages. One even stated to shut the car down. It also had 2 recalls for a steering issue and the OCS system was incorrectly calibrated. Infiniti has refused to take back this lemon, so now I have to try to receive fair treatment through my states Lemon Law. I should have purchased a LEXUS!

  Third time NOT the charm - 2014 Infiniti Q50
  By Paul D - September 6 - 1:20 pm

  My third infiniti. Had the G35x, G37x and LOVED THEM. Got the fancy new Q50 and it is a joke! Fancy electronics that dont work! Fancy electronic features that dont do ANYTHING. I went from proud and loyal Infiniti customer to I cant wait to get rid of this car guy.

  Probably My Last Infiniti - 2014 Infiniti Q50
  By jimg37 - August 18 - 9:03 am

  I traded my G37 (that I loved) for the Q50. At first, I commented that I enjoyed the car more than I thought I would. Steering issues that others reported were not an issue with me. Electronics and tech are cool but finicky and can be distracting. After just three months in the car it died on me on the highway. Infiniti Connections was not a help in getting a tow truck. Two weeks plus at the Infiniti dealer no results in getting issue resolved. Two visits from Infiniti engineers and they want to run more tests. Im told Hybrid battery discharged and the transmission is bad. But no resolution. Local dealer is trying to help but no word or help from corporate.
