2024 Infiniti QX50

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2024 QX50.

Transmission Automatic (AV-S8)

The 2024 Infiniti QX50 is a luxury compact crossover equipped with an automatic transmission (AV-S8) and achieves EPA-estimated fuel economy of 23 mpg city, 29 mpg highway, and 26 mpg combined, positioning it competitively within its segment for efficiency, while its one recall and minimal owner complaints signal meaningful progress in vehicle quality; in fact, this model year represents a dramatic improvement from the model's peak complaint period, as complaints have fallen from 131 in 2019 to just four in 2024 across the model's complaint history spanning 2014-2025, with the remaining issues concentrated in electrical systems, exterior lighting, and forward collision avoidance—suggesting that while isolated concerns persist, the overall reliability trajectory has markedly improved compared to earlier production years.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 7,500 mi; spark plugs at 105,000 mi; coolant at 105,000 mi. The big-interval services (at 105,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2024 Infiniti QX50 sits at the tail end of a clear improvement arc for this generation. After the 2019 model year produced a spike of 131 complaints, 3 recalls, and 171 TSBs, every subsequent year has shown declining activity, with 2024 recording just 4 complaints, 1 recall, 1 investigation, and only 19 TSBs—the lowest full-year TSB count in the dataset. Compared with 2023's 4 complaints and 1 recall, 2024 is essentially flat, while 2025's early figures of 1 complaint and 0 recalls suggest the pattern is continuing to calm. The 2024 complaints are fragmented across electrical/forward collision avoidance, power train, and seats, with no crash complaints and a single fire complaint; the data does not specify root causes or identify a dominant systemic defect. Given the downward trajectory in complaints, recalls, and TSBs since 2019, the 2024 model appears to be a relatively settled year in this generation's lifecycle. For a used-car buyer, 2024 looks like a good year to buy, provided the specific vehicle has a clean individual history and any open recall has been addressed.
