#31 of 61 Re: QX56 suspension = horrible ride [richj2] by ventrone Apr 28, 2009 (11:51 am)
Replying to: richj2 (Jan 28, 2009 12:11 pm) I have the same exact problem. This car's suspension is a disaster. I think it's just a poor design, but do agree it feels unsafe.
#32 of 61 QX56 suspension unsafe by gutfamily May 13, 2009 (1:26 pm)
We have an 2006 Qx56 with the same problems. It feels very unsafe when going over large potholes and poor pavement. The dealer (two different ones) have dismissed the problem. They did replace one of the front shocks but the problem is still there. One other issue is going over speed bumps it sound horrible squeaky. The window problem that was reported by another owner is also a problem we have.   Has anyone gotten the dealer to warranty any of these issues? I would love to hear about it.

Replying to: kechal12 (Apr 13, 2009 6:57 am) This is a Warranty repair the dealer will perform for free. It appears to be common problem.

Replying to: ldr63 (Aug 18, 2008 12:05 pm) i had the same problem with the 2006 Q56....the U joint in the front drive shaft has gone bad and needs to be replaced.   This is a warranty item...dealer replaced mine. you will need the Front Drive Shaft Assembly and a Propellar Shaft. This repair and parts were covered under warranty

Replying to: infqx56 (Jan 26, 2008 9:47 am) you need to have the dealer replace the front drive shaft assembly. The U joint has gone bad and deteriorated. They should do this work under warranty.

#38 of 61 A/C Problems? by tdkeator Jun 26, 2009 (8:59 pm)
My 2009 QX56 does not appear to cool properly. Right now we are hitting highs of 100 degrees in TX. My QX56 only cools to about 60 degrees at the front center vent (I am measuring temps with a special A/C thermometer designed for this purpose). At the same time of day, my 2003 Yukon hits 45 degrees at the vent and my 2007 Volvo XC90 hits 40 degrees! I think the QX56 should hit similar numbers. Has anyone experienced a similar problem with the QX56 producing cool, but not cold, air? Is this a programatic issue? I took it to the dealer and they said everything was fine with the vehicle.

Replying to: tdkeator (Jun 26, 2009 8:59 pm) In addition to the temperature of the air conditioner's output, the other factor that matters is the flow rate (volume) of the output. For example, if your QX56 is putting out twice the volume at 60° as your XC90 puts out at 40° you may be just as comfortable in your QX56.   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper

Replying to: tdkeator (Jun 26, 2009 8:59 pm) Since your QX56 is larger it may not cool the cabin to 40 degrees because the cool air has a larger area to cool. And since your SUV is larger it also produces more heat (when driving) which in turn will cause it not to cool up as fast. Then again maybe the vehicle was built to cool only to only 60 degrees. While test driving two other new vehicles I noticed they only cooled to 60 degrees also. Cooling the vehicle to 45 degrees will probably affect the MPG (which is already bad) which is why it stops at 60. I hope this helps.
