I had paint peeling from the rear bumper of my '04 and they replaced the bumper when I scheduled routine service.

4 wheel drive high or low?
When engaging or disengaging 4 wheel drive low, remember to have the transmission in the neutral position or it will indicate it is engaged, but it won't be.

Ive had the same problem as cspring, except with a 2004 QX56 with 100k miles on it. The dealer is perplexed, thought initially it was problems with the sensors, which were replaced. The car ran great for a week but then shut down again. Any ideas on what this may be?

I have a 2005 QX56, about 105000 miles. This same problem started on my vehicle last week - 3 days at the dealer, not fixed. It happened again this week, another 3 days in the shop.
I know that brake systems and fuel systems are quite different functionally, however I have had a similar problem with my brakes for about 3 years - brakes make nose when pushed, brake and ABS lights come on. I go to the side of the road, turn off the car, turn it on again, and the problem disappears. I had always felt that it was some controller in the car that was having a glitch of some sort. This fuel problem is very reminiscent of the same kind of activity - seems like an electrical/control problem, and turning the car off and then on again makes it go away. Both problems happen only occasionally, and the dealer has never been able to reproduce the problem and consequently never able to fix it.
 
However, I called Infiniti Consumer Affairs - 1-800-662-6200 option 7 and told them of the issues. The dealer called yesterday and said that Infiniti had instructed them to check out a control module as well as the fuel pump. I received a call this morning indicating that they are going to replace the fuel pump and the IPPM ( a control module). The IPPM is evidently involved with both the fuel system and the brake system. Infiniti is going to cover the cost of replacement.
 
If you don't hear from me, the problems have not reoccurred. I'll reply again if I continue to have problems.
 
Good luck - hope you can solve the problems on your vehicles.

I am having the same issue with my 2007. Dealer says paint chips and not covered. I've taken to inspecting everyQX56 I see and 75% of them have the same issue.

I had a 2007 Infiniti Qx56 and this will be a general answer to many issues I see in this forum, I had paint peeling , I had Dvd ratteling The dealer also claimed this was all normal and I did not buy that answer, We had argued and then they finally offered to repaint my bumpers and inner door panels, I did buy this brand new and did not want a repaint on even 1 inch of my SUV, I chose to take this to arbitration and my case was heard by CAMVAP which is free service and protects the consumer if the consumer feels they are getting jacked by the manufacture, The arbitrator had forced them to do all repairs and clearly said paint peeling is not normal if there is no stone chip or scratch and the DVD raddle is infact not normal , They did paint and try to repair the vehicle and they claimed it was perfect , I disagreed and asked the arbitrator to re-examine the truck priot to making a final decision, He had looked at the truck and ordered a buy back and granted me a full refund less my driven milage. These are the steps in Canada as for people in the U.S you are lucky the lemon law is in place and should be easier. This is my second battle with Nissan Canada 1st on my 2004 Armada a lemon with the same issues and they lost that also, So if you have a used one or a new one the paint issue is a factory defect and the dvd rattle is also a factory defect so do not take this " it is normal , this is far from normal and they have to fix it.
