Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the spark plugs at 105,000 mi; coolant at 105,000 mi. The big-interval services (at 105,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2024 Infiniti Q50 sits at the tail end of a generation that has shown dramatic improvement in reliability metrics since 2014, when the model recorded 169 complaints and 5 recalls—the highest in its history. From that peak, complaints declined steadily to just 6 in 2023, with zero recalls that year, reflecting what appears to be a mature and refined platform. The 2021 model year did see a spike to 3 recalls (the highest since 2017), but this coincided with the lowest complaint count (4) in the generation's history, suggesting the recalls addressed preemptive engineering concerns rather than widespread defects. For the 2024 model year specifically, the limited data available shows isolated complaint areas (electrical, powertrain, seats) with single-instance frequencies, zero crash complaints, and one fire complaint—numbers too small to establish patterns. The federal database entry for 2024 would naturally be incomplete given the model's recent introduction, but the consistent downward complaint trend across the prior decade suggests this is among the most reliable iterations of the Q50 to date. **Takeaway: Based on the clear improvement trajectory, the 2024 model year appears to be a favorable choice within this generation, though buyers should verify any open recalls and monitor for emerging TSBs as the vehicle accumulates mileage.**
