2022 Infiniti QX60

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2022 QX60.

Transmission Automatic (S9)

The 2022 Infiniti QX60 is equipped with a nine-speed automatic transmission (S9) and carries EPA fuel-economy ratings of 20 mpg city, 25 mpg highway, and 22 mpg combined. Recording only 22 owner complaints—far below the 2014 peak of 229 yet significantly above the 2026 series low of three—this model year sits in the lower range of the 2014–2026 complaint spectrum alongside just two recalls. That complaint profile, with "Unknown Or Other" identified as the primary concern area, marks the 2022 QX60 as a relatively stable entry in the model’s documented history, representing a point well past the problematic 2014 high but before the series reached its minimal complaint totals in later years.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the 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 2022 Infiniti QX60 sits at a favorable point in this generation's federal record, with 22 complaints and 2 recalls — figures that place it among the lowest in the entire model run. The generation's arc is clear: 2014 was a severe outlier with 229 complaints, 8 recalls, and 3 investigations, after which complaint volume dropped sharply and stabilized in the 23–67 range from 2016 through 2020. The 2022 model's 22 complaints represent a continued downward trend, though its 119 technical service bulletins mark a notable increase from 2020's 88, suggesting Infiniti was actively addressing early-production refinements — consistent with 2022 being a redesign year for the QX60. The top complaint areas (Unknown/Other at 6, Electrical System at 4, Service Brakes at 2, and Engine at 2) are modest in volume and spread across categories rather than concentrated in a single systemic failure, with zero crash or fire complaints reported. Notably, 2023 saw a slight uptick to 27 complaints and 3 recalls, and 2024 held at 3 recalls as well, indicating that the 2022 model's relative cleanliness did not carry a hidden deferred-risk pattern into subsequent years. **Bottom line: the 2022 QX60 is a solid buy from a federal-record standpoint — it benefits from years of generational maturation, carries low complaint and recall counts, and shows no evidence of a concentrated defect pattern in the data.**
