Beautiful car with plenty of space
We really like this car, we bought it used, but it hasn't given us any problems. We love the amount of space it has for people, it has room for eight passengers. And with all the seats up still has plenty of space for groceries, the only downside is it not having Bluetooth for music, but it only has for calls

Infiniti qx56 review, awesome!
The car is very big, has automatic trunk opener, lots of room, leather interior, heated seats, 3 rows, front and back cameras, Bluetooth, GPS, front monitor, backseat DVD players, keyless start, keyless entry, lots of leg-room, collapsing back seats, heat and air control in the back, and overall a great car!

The trunk space is great even when the third row of seats are up and being used.
The only problem I have had with this car was getting the Audio system hooked up each time I got a new iPhone. The dealership had to help me get everything synched up correctly. And some new downloads etc. Were needed to get my 2013 up to date on the newest iPhone features. It has been a great car. Rides well. Plenty of room for my family and all of their things. The kids have really enjoyed the movie screens. And the trunk is still spacious even when the third row of seats are up.

Smooth very comfortable SUV.
Very comfortable smooth ride. Excellent in snow. Very comfortable on long trips. Not so good on gas. Very reliable so far. Very nice for transporting large items as it is a large vehicle. Drives nice in rain. The 3rd row is very nice to have. The car feels very safe to drive as well.

Reliable comfort, worth the money.
My car is comfortable and reliable. I have only had one major mechanical issue which was able to get fixed in one day. It is not bad on gas and the tank can be filled for a reasonable price. I do feel that the features are limited because of the age of the car. The newer models do have more up to date/trendy features.

It is very expensive to change tires.
I like the size of the car and seating capacity. And lots of feature in the car. Don't like about fuel cost and maintenance.

Love my Infiniti and would buy again.
I have had no problems with this vehicle. I love the heated seats and steering wheel. This is a luxury SUV and it lives up to the luxury part. The seat in the back lay completely flat and makes it easy to haul large items if needed. The seats lower with a push of a button and we enjoy the movie screens in the seats with the wireless headsets.

Not worth the cash
2013 Q56 has not been very reliable. We stay current on maintenance. There was a recall on the paint (white) due to the bubbling that occurred something that was known. Something tells me that if they were willing to sacrifice the paint that they were will to sacrifice other parts. Early on we had a couple switches out preventing the car from starting, starter, catalytic converter and more. Ongoing issues some of which occurred years 4 and 5.

Qx56 luxury inside and out.
I love the qx56. It is luxury inside and out. The seats are very comfortable, there is a ton of room in the back seats, and it has a third row seat if needed. The instrument panel is easy to view and understand. Gas mileage is not the greatest though.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Sandra B.

It has a third row, it drives smooth, great features like heated seats, DVD in back row, leather seats, Bluetooth access, calling feature, automatic entry in front doors, keyless entry, extremely roomy, classy looking.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Sandra B.

It takes a lot of gas, difficult to park, hard to see out back window, expensive to fix, black color shows all the dirt, very high and hard to get in, no temperature display, complicated front screen display.
