Overview

2015 Infiniti QX70

The 2015 Infiniti QX70 presents a compelling blend of luxury SUV practicality and sporty driving dynamics, powered by a potent 3.7-liter V6 engine. Its all-wheel-drive system provides confidence in various conditions, while the cabin offers premium appointments. However, used-car shoppers should be aware of its average reliability score, which is influenced by a recall concerning potential fuel leaks. Fuel economy is modest, reflecting its performance-oriented nature.

Critical Failure Risk

A recall (14V683000) addresses improperly tightened fuel pressure sensors that can lead to fuel leaks. While the recall remedy involves re-torquing, there's a residual risk of leaks or component failure.

Early detection can help you avoid a $200-$500 repair.
