| Pros: What do you like about 2006 Infiniti QX56?
I love this car. I think it gives you both luxury and off roading in one vehicle. I love the smart cruise control, the dvd, rear camera, seat warmers, nav system and ESPECIALLY ALL THE ROOM. I have a gigantic family (not butt) and this car had so much room in the third row that my teens can sit there comfortably. Also, the second row seats recline, nice on longer trips. This SUV has saved my butt on icy mountain roads in Colorado with the traction control. I have only been stranded once, due to the battery after putting almost 60K miles since 2006. This is a comfortable car on road trips and easy to park in tight spots. I highly recommend this car, especially after owning a Land Rover (worst car in the world... If you own one, you're a sucker. Your time will come). Cons: How would you improve 2006 Infiniti QX56?
Improvements... definitely improve to a touch screen nav, electronic folding third row seat (broke a nail on that one) and better rear window wiper fluid release.
I would also assign the tire pressure gages to each tires and also use a better tire instead of those wimpy continental highway tires.
If possible, put in two screens for the dvd and satelite tv.
Upgrading to standard Ipod connection.
Being able to remove the middle seat in the second row would be nice too.
Oh, I would definitely be interested in a hybrid vehicle since this car doesn't do good on gas. About the same as my Burb and all wheel drive Discovery.
This is also a noisy car, but that never bothered me since I do enjoy the beefy off roading fun too. If you want a quiet car, buy a non off-roading vehicle like Benz or Lexus. 2006 Infiniti QX56 Review:
Over all, this is a great car. Not everyone is or can be perfect, but after the snotty Land Rover dealers, this is a nice change. Nothing wrong with Chevy, I own and have several. I will be re-purchasing this car in the future. Great service too! |

| Pros: What do you like about 2006 Infiniti QX56?
I like the Back up camera.
Intelligent cruise control.
Safety features.
The vehicle has a great look and feel.
The ride is smooth. Cons: How would you improve 2006 Infiniti QX56?
Needs HD radio
iPod functionality
Nav system needs to be a touch screen with realtime traffic and auto updated maps.
Tire pressure display is usually inaccurate. You cannot tell which tire is allegedly low.
Needs to come with more options for rims and larger tires.
Different options for gas savings such as hybrid.
The plastic controls on the steering wheel for cruise and radio are cheap plastic and showed wear in 6 months. They are also not lit at night as it should be for a vehicle of this price.
The only service related issue I have experienced is a dead battery 1.5 years into the purchase. Had to be towed. Could not even jump start it. 2006 Infiniti QX56 Review:
Overall this is a good vehicle. For my vehicle, there are no rattles or strange noises. Mine rides very quiet. I bought it new and would recommend it to anyone. |

The hard plastic on dash and doors looks cheap, and the third row seat should electronically fold down. |

It's loaded with everything you could hope to get. Only the Cadillac has as much and even then it lacks IRS & fold down third row seats. Cons: How would you improve 2006 Infiniti QX56?
Nav system & especially the a/c controls need to be redesigned. The a/c & entertainment controls need to be thrown out & start over with a clean slate. The grey plastic interior trim is cheap. 2006 Infiniti QX56 Review:
This is a great truck. We have have an 05 that Infinity is buying back & we'll get an 06 or 07 without hestitation. |

Needs much more attention given to skweeky seats, creeking noises in the rear. Most of all the suspention handles terribly when confronted with pot holes and freeway abnormalities. The truck literaly jumps to the outside if going through a turn in the afformentioned situations! Seems to have potetial for creating a dangerous situation! 2006 Infiniti QX56 Review:
The concept is fabulous but needs some serious reality checks! |

Split 3rd row seats. Improved a/c 2006 Infiniti QX56 Review:
A/C could be stronger at the beginning. But does fine once vehicle has driven for a short period. Only item I would change inside is split third row seats. Everything else is excellent! So far so good only 700 miles. Happier now then with my Lexus RX 330! |

repossion the clock to be more visable. Make the cargo net to hold items not just a single strand. 2006 Infiniti QX56 Review:
The instrument panel is very attractive with out effecting the need for being functonal. Instrumentation did not leave me wanting! The comfort of the seats and color co-ordination with the hardwear; first class. they just did'nt miss a beat from the rear view monitor to the navigation system and ever thing in between.I would like to know what if anything they left out. The exterior is a combination of the look of power and style just what i was looking for in an suv. Under the hood total power and acceleration more than I can use. |

Brakes & Rattles Automatic emergency brake release upon putting car in drive. Bumpers' impact. Sensors on front bumper. GPS touch screen 2006 Infiniti QX56 Review:
This is a great car to drive, however the car has poorly designed brakes. Mine were replaced by dealer after being in shop three times. I strongly recommend all Q56 owners have their brakes check. The dealer has not been able to get rid of all the rattles. At two miles hour bumpers will sustain damage upon hitting object. Dealer did not imfom me that I needed to use premium gas until after I purchase the Q56. |

The "smart cruise", the tumble seats, the DVD, Navagation, and on and on... so many great features Cons: How would you improve 2006 Infiniti QX56?
The one improvement would be to change the dashtop styling. The bump grain plastic is not as plush as the rest of the car. 2006 Infiniti QX56 Review:
After shopping All SUVs this was the on for me. I have owned the Mercedes ML, and the Lincoln Navigator, for interior plushness and utility this QX56 is far superior. The easy tumble mid seats and the fold flat rear third row is better than the Escalade. You can remove the mid-seat console for even more ease to the third row. |

Fix the rattles and reliability. 2006 Infiniti QX56 Review:
I was greatly disappointed with my QX56. The car rattled the entire time I had it, 10 months. The overhead console had to be replaced. There were rattling issues with the front end.... I sold this SUV at a loss, but I was happy to get rid of it. I wish i had read these reviews before i bought this suv. To think i traded my lexus lx470, i wanted more room, for this big rattler. |

Rattles like crazy, they cant fix the brakes, this car needs some major work and should of never been sold in this condition. BOOOOO Infinty you are ruining your good name with this terrible car! 2006 Infiniti QX56 Review:
This car has been a real disappointment. We love the look of the car and the overall comfort of the interior. BUT, We have had it in for service 4 times now, they charge us almost $600 each time for service, and with 20,000 miles they have had to fix the brakes 3 times, the dealer has even admitted that there is a brake problem with these cars and they do not know how to fix it except to keep replacing them every 5000 miles or so. The interior console that houses the fold up tv screen rattles like crazy, the automatic opening backdoor has had to been fixed twice. After having this car for 1.5 years I have had enough. I dont feel safe with these brakes and a 13 month child. Don't buy it |

Make the dash insruments easier to operate. Light the steering wheel controls for the radio and cruise control so they can be seen at night without turning on the courtesy lights. Start acting like a luxury car company and deal with your car issues like a luxury car company should! 2006 Infiniti QX56 Review:
own a Chevy and a Mecedes Benz. When I bought the QX-56, I thought I would be treated with the same intensity as I am with the Benz. Instead, I feel like I bought a Chevy. The truck, although pricey, is a terrible driving truck. Its balloon tires bounce down the road and the steering wheel jumps out of my hand over rougher road surfaces. Its dashboard is the most cumbersome I have ever come across. It is noisy and has many rattles. It only has 8,000 miles. I had problems with the front brakes at 3,000 miles. The dealer knew about it. The rotars were warped. They cut them instead of replacing. A Chevy dealer would cut. A benz dealer would replace |

The back up camera is the best. I think it may be messing up now though because it doesn't beep as early as before. I love having the radio controls on steering wheel and the automatic open and close for the trunk is great too. The dvd is great. (I have a toddler.) Cons: How would you improve 2006 Infiniti QX56?
Make the inside doors look better and automatically lock when in drive. Cheap looking now. Make the a/c quieter and work better. And above all, make it reliable. 2006 Infiniti QX56 Review:
My car is stuck in park again. First time, service mgr said it was a bad shifter. 2nd time my cell phone charger was blamed for blowing the fuse leaving me stranded in a parking lot at night. This is the third time I've been stranded. My cell phone charger was not even in the car. It is beginning to rattle too. I wish I'd never traded my Lexus. |

| 2006 Infiniti QX56 Review:
We had this vehilce for 4 days when we ran out of gas due to a faulty electrical system (the gauge read full). Since 4/05, when we bought it new, we have had the brakes replaced, the rotors replaced, and more work done to the electrical system (on several occassions). I would not recommend this vehicle to anyone. |
