Editor's note

Avoid the 2014 QX60, which has 229 owner complaints and a score of 33. Buy a 2015 or newer car: the 2015 scores 76 on 92 complaints, the 2016 scores 93 on 29, and every year from 2018 to 2020 is at 88 or better on 38 complaints or fewer. Read the full note on the model page. 2019 specifically: a year the record favours — 37 complaints, score 88/100. The caveats in the note apply to other years of this nameplate more than to this one.
