There is a rattling or knocking noise coming from the engine, and the vehicle experiences a loss of power whenever I accelerate. While driving, the collision warning symbol was flashing on the dashboard. The vehicle was inspected by an Infiniti dealership, and their diagnosis was that no metal debris was found in the engine oil pan, but the VCR actuator needs to be replaced. I also took the vehicle to an independent repair shop specializing in Infiniti vehicles. They recommended taking it back to the dealership for repairs because there is a recall campaign related to engine replacement due to the damage found, and there is a possibility that the engine may need to be replaced.

2022 Infinity QX55 Luxe.....Rear door lock system issues...The door jams and you cannot open the door from the inside and outside of the vehicle. This creates a serious safety issue. People can be trapped inside the car and first responders cannot get the door open...It is a problem with the door actuator and unlock cable design. I have had one door fixed previously with new factory parts by the dealer service.dept. Now the other rear door is having the same issue. This is a serious safety issue as there is not warning for this to happen. There is no way to exit the vehicle from that seat in the event of an accident.

We’ve taken the vehicle to two different Infiniti dealerships (Sewell and Crest) multiple times due to engine rattling, vibration noises, and propulsion issues. Unfortunately, we haven’t received any resolution or fix for these problems. We tried to upload a video with sound as reference but the platform doesn’t allow us to. We experienced similar issue that resulted in total engine failure on the highway with our children in the car in our Yukon Denali. We are fearful that something similar will occur. Please Help!!!
