MY FAMILY'S 2004 NISSAN QUEST SPONTANEOUSLY STALLED WHILE BEING DRIVEN ON A TOTAL OF FIVE OCCASIONS SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE ON JULY 9TH, 2015. THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED ON ABOUT JULY 13TH, 2015 IN A PARKING LOT WHILE MOVING AT A LOW SPEED OF NOT MORE THAN TEN MILES AN HOUR BUT EVERY STALLING INCIDENT SINCE THEN WAS WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN ON ROADS AT VARIOUS SPEEDS OVER TEN MILES AND HOUR AND UNDER FIFTY MILES AN HOUR. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN BEFORE STALLING THERE ARE NO SIGNIFICANT INDICATIONS BEFORE HAND TO INDICATE THAT THERE IS ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE EXCEPT THAT ON THE LAST FEW OCCASIONS WE HAVE NOTICED THAT A SECOND OR TWO BEFORE STALLING THE CHECK ENGINE AND SLIP LIGHTS GLOW. AFTER STALLING THE VEHICLE RESTARTS EITHER ON A FIRST ATTEMPT OR A SECOND ATTEMPT. THE VEHICLE DOES NOT STALL EVERY TIME IT IS DRIVEN EITHER. ALTHOUGH I DO NOT HAVE ANY MECHANICAL EXPERTISE, SOME ONLINE RESEARCH INTO THIS MATTER SUGGESTS THAT ON 2004 MODELS, AND FIXED IN LATER MODELS, THERE MAY BE AN ISSUE WITH CORROSION TO THE ECM DUE TO THE PLACEMENT OF THE MODULE IN A LOCATION THAT IS SUBJECT TO WATER INTRUSION.

I WAS DRIVING MY VAN AND I CAME TO A STOP ON A HILL AND IT WOULDN'T GO, I HAD TO PUSH THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR TO GO. AND IT WON'T GO IN REVERSE EITHER. I HAD POWER PROBLEMS YEARS AGO BUT TURNING MY VAN OFF AND BACK ON 'FIXED' THE PROBLEM. ALSO THE TIMING CHAIN ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS.

WHEN WE WENT TO REPLACE THE LOWER CONTROL ARM ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE A SOFTBALL SIZE HOLE IN THE SUBFRAME CAUSED BY RUST WAS DISCOVERED. AS A RESULT OF THE CAR BEING UP ON JACKS, THE SUBFRAME SNAPPED IN HALF. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, WE HAVE DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE, IN NISSAN QUESTS AND IS CAUSED IN PART BECAUSE OF POOR DRAIN LOCATION FOR THE AIR CONDITIONER. IT IS OUR UNDERSTANDING THAT NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND HAS ADDRESSED IT WITH WARRANTIES IN OTHER MODELS, BUT NOT THE QUEST. WHICH, I NOW MUST FORK OUT AT A MINIMUM OF $2,000 TO REPLACE.

TL*- THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 NISSAN QUEST WITH AN ODOMETER READING OF 38,000 MILES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CONTROLS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WERE UNSAFE BECAUSE THEY WERE HARD TO USE WHILE DRIVING. WHEN THE CONTACT WOULD TRY TO USE THE DEFROSTER IT WAS DIFFICULT BECAUSE OF THE LOCATION ON THE DASHBOARD AND CAUSED A DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING. SHE HAD TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS UNTIL SHE CAME TO A STOP TO TURN ON THE DEFROSTER. ALSO, THE SPEEDOMETER WHICH WAS LOCATED ON THE CENTER OF THE DASHBOARD MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. THE DRIVER STATED THAT THE ONLY THING THAT WAS LOCATED IN THE DASHBOARD WITH ALL THE CONTROLS IN THE CENTER WAS A STORAGE COMPARTMENT WHICH WAS A DANGEROUS DESIGN FLAW. NISSAN HAS SINCE FIXED THE PROBLEM WITH THE NEWER MODELS. THE CONTACT FELT THAT THE RECALL SOLUTION FOR THE MIDDLE SEAT LATCH WAS A BAD SOLUTION BECAUSE THEY ONLY USED FOUR PLASTIC PEGS AND A PIECE OF CLOTH. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 38,000.*AK THE CONSUMER FEELS THAT THE OLDER DESIGNS SHE BE RECALLED BECAUSE IT IS TOO DIFFICULT TO OPERATE SAFELY WHILE DRIVING. UPDATE 4/25/07*TR

HOWEVER, THE NOISE BECAME WORSE RECENTLY. THE DEALER SAID,"WE DON'T KNOW WHAT CAUSED THE NOISE. IT WAS JUST A MULTI FUNCTION PROBLEM WE BELIEVE. HOWEVER, WE CHANGED A PART WHAT WE HAD TO DO." THAT WAS HEARD WHEN I DROPPED OFF MY CAR 2-3 MONTHS AGO. I AM WONDERING THAT IF THE PROBLEM AFFECT TO OTHER FUNCTION OR IF NISSAN DEALER DOESN'T FIX IT COMPLETELY. IF MY WONDER IS RIGHT, I WOULD LIKE TO TRADE MY CAR TO NEW ONE AND OR THE DEALER GUARANTEES TO FIX IT COMPLETELY/ CLEARLY. *JB

Official recalls
4Oct 17, 2005
ON CERTAIN MINI VANS EQUIPPED WITH A FOLDING THIRD ROW REAR SEAT, WHEN THE THIRD ROW SEAT IS RAISED FROM ITS STOWED POSITION, IT ENGAGES STRIKER BRACKETS, ONE ON EACH SIDE OF THE SEAT CUSHION. THE FOLD-AWAY STRIKER LOOP IS WELDED TO A MOUNTING BRACKET. THE STRIKER MAY BECOME DETACHED FROM ITS MOUNTING BRACKET DUE TO A BROKEN WELD AT THE POINT OF ATTACHMENT TO THE BRACKET.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THE THIRD ROW SEAT STRIKER WELD FAILS, THE STRIKER COULD SEPARATE FROM THE MOUNTING BRACKET. STRIKER SEPARATION COULD AFFECT THE RISK OF INJURY IN CERTAIN TYPES OF CRASHES.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE THIRD ROW SEAT STRIKER BRACKETS FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON DECEMBER 19, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.
Oct 13, 2005
ON CERTAIN MINI VANS, THERE IS A SEAT ADJUSTMENT MECHANISM THAT CONTAINS EXPOSED MOVING COMPONENTS LOCATED AT THE REAR INSIDE EDGE OF THE SECOND ROW SEAT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: WHEN THE OPERATOR ATTEMPTS SEAT ADJUSTMENT, A FINGER MAY BE PINCHED IN THE MOVING SEAT ADJUSTMENT MECHANISM WHICH COULD CAUSE AN INJURY.
Remedy: ON EARLIER MODEL VEHICLES BUILT THROUGH JUNE 28, 2004, DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE INBOARD SECOND ROW SEAT ADJUSTMENT HANDLE, RIVET A PLASTIC REINFORCEMENT TO BACKSIDE OF THE EXISTING SEAT BACK COVER CARPETING, INSTALL TIE-DOWNS AND A FLANGE TO THE INBOARD SIDE SHIELD. ON VEHICLES PRODUCED FROM JUNE 29, 2004 THROUGH SEPTEMBER 26, 2005, DEALERS WILL RIVET A PLASTIC REINFORCEMENT TO THE BACKSIDE OF THE EXISTING SEAT BACK COVER CARPETING, INSTALL TIE-DOWNS AND A FLANGE ON THE INBOARD SIDE SHIELD.

Apr 16, 2004
ON CERTAIN MINIVANS EQUIPPED WITH A POWER SLIDING DOOR(S), AT AN AMBIENT TEMPERATURE BELOW APPROXIMATELY 40 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT, THE ACTUATOR FOR THE POWER SLIDING DOOR(S) MAY EXPERIENCE BINDING DUE TO AN OUT-OF-SPECIFICATION CONDITION. IN ORDER TO OPEN, CLOSE OR REVERSE A POWER SLIDING DOOR, THE SHIFT SELECTOR LEVER MUST BE IN "PARK." IF THE ACTUATOR IS EXPERIENCING BINDING AND THE DRIVER SHIFTS THE VEHICLE OUT OF "PARK" WHILE A POWER SLIDING DOOR IS STILL CLOSING, THE DOOR LATCHES MAY NOT ENGAGE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS CAN RESULT IN THE DOOR COMING OPEN UNEXPECTEDLY UPON RAPID ACCELERATION, AND AN OCCUPANT COULD FALL OUT OF THE DOOR AND BE INJURED.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE ACTUATOR FOR THE POWER SLIDING DOOR(S). OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON JUNE 23, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.
Mar 1, 2004
CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE ADVANCED AIR BAG REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 208, "OCCUPANT CRASH PROTECTION." THE AIR BAG FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IS TO BE TURNED OFF (SO THAT IT DOES NOT INFLATE) WHEN CERTAIN OCCUPANTS, SUCH AS SMALL CHILDREN, ARE IN THE FRONT SEAT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS REDUCES THE RISK OF SUCH OCCUPANTS BEING UNJURED BY AN INFLATING AIR BAG IN A COLLISION.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION/SENSOR ASSEMBLY. IF THE SEAT CUSHION/SENSOR IS FOUND TO BE OPERATING IMPROPERLY, THE SEAT WILL BE REMOVED AND RECALIBRATED. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON JUNE 23, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.
