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 2023 model year sits at the peak of the current generation’s complaint and recall trend, with 27 complaints and 3 recalls—the highest counts of any year from 2022 onward. This is a notable increase from the 2022 model’s 22 complaints and 2 recalls, and it contrasts sharply with the declining trajectory seen in 2024 (16 complaints, 3 recalls) and 2025 (14 complaints, 1 recall). The 2023 also has the second-highest TSB count (79) in the generation, suggesting that Infiniti was still working through early-production refinements. While the absolute numbers remain low—no crashes and only one fire complaint—the uptick in complaints and recalls relative to both the preceding and following years indicates that the 2023 model may have been a transitional point with some unresolved issues. **Given this data, the 2023 is a reasonable but not optimal choice; a later model year (2024 or 2025) offers a more settled ownership experience with fewer reported problems.**
