Some INFINITI QX56 owners report experiencing significant issues with peeling paint on the hood, roof, and rear cargo door, particularly in the 2011 model year. Many have noted that the paint often peels off in sheets, prompting some to seek assistance from dealers or to participate in a class action lawsuit. The 2011 INFINITI QX56 has had 13 reported problems related to this issue, with an average failure mileage of 95,350 miles, while the 2012 model has also faced similar concerns, reporting 6 problems at an average failure mileage of 100,200 miles. Additionally, Nissan, the parent company of INFINITI, has settled a class action lawsuit regarding defective paint, which alleged that the paint used could lead to premature peeling and potential rust damage. Affected owners have been provided with information about their rights under the settlement, highlighting the seriousness of the paint peeling issue and the manufacturer's response to it.
