Model years to avoid

Infiniti Q50

What it says about you

Opinion

The saloon Infiniti sold for a decade with a steering system people argued about. You either configured it correctly or you never noticed.

Not measured, not from the data, and offered in fun. Everything below this is not.

11 model years on record, 482 complaints filed.

The years to look at closely: 2015 (valve body), 2014 (steering). Everything else drew a normal number of complaints for this model.
