2005 Nissan Quest

I HAVE HAD THE VAN IN THE SHOP AT LEAST 4 TIMES(~15 DAYS) WITH ONGOING PROBLEMS WHICH INCLUDE: THE WINDOWS FAILING TO ROLL UP WHEN BUTTON IS PUSHED, THE GAS GAUGE FAILING TO REGISTER GAS AFTER FILLING IT UP, THE GAS METER AFTER A HALF A TANK NEVER REGISTERS CORRECTLY (WHEN LIGHT INDICATES NO GAS AND TANK IS FILLED THE VAN WILL ONLY TAKE 16 GALLONS AND OWNERS MANUAL INDICATES A 20 GALLON TANK), THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS, THE SLIDING DOORS SQUEAK AND RATTLE, REAR INTERIOR CLAMPS ON FLOOR OF CAR ARE RUSTING, IDIOT LIGHTS COME ON INTERMITTENTLY, THE GASKETS ON THE DOORS ARE COMING OFF, THE HEATED SEATS HAVEN'T WORKED IN HIGH AND LOW, THE ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM DOESN'T RESPOND TO REAR AV, AND THE AIR CONDITIONER IS NOT COOL ENOUGH AND IT STINKS. THE AUTOMATIC SLIDE DOORS WILL NOT STOP FOR SMALL OBJECTS BUT THIS PRODUCT WAS DESIGNED FOR FAMILIES. THESE DOORS WILL REMOVE A CHILD'S FINGER AND THE SWITCH TO INITIATE THE AUTO SLIDE IS LOW, WHERE ONE CHILD CAN PUSH IT WHILE ANOTHER IS GETTING IN, OR HAS THEIR HAND IN THE WAY AND DIDN'T REALIZE THEIR BROTHER PUSHED THE BUTTON. I DID MY OWN LITTLE RESEARCH TEST, I GOT PENCILS AND EVERYWHERE I PLACED A PENCIL THE DOOR CLOSED WITH THE PENCIL BEING SNAPPED INTO MANY PIECES AND CRUNCHED UP IN THE DOOR. THEN I TRIED THE SAME THING ON MY FRIEND'S HONDA, BUT THE HONDA'S AUTO SLIDE DOORS BOUNCED OFF EVERY TIME. NISSAN ONLY DESIGNED THEIR DOORS TO RESPOND TO LARGE EXTREMITIES. I HAVE AN ATTORNEY AND I AM GOING THROUGH A PROCESS FOR LEMON LAW. I DIDN'T REALIZE THE ISSUES WITH THE VAN IN A FEW DAYS SO I DON'T THINK NISSAN SERVICE WILL RESOLVE ALL THESE ISSUES IN 2 DAYS WITH A SPECIAL NISSAN ENGINEER SENT OUT FROM THE COMPANY AS PART OF MY LEMON LAW PROCESS. AND IN REGARDS TO THE SLIDING DOOR CONCERNS ALL ANYONE WILL SAY IS THAT THE DOORS ARE PERFORMING THE WAY THEY WERE DESIGNED TO. SO NISSAN DESIGNED A PRODUCT FOR FAMILIES THAT WILL REMOVE A SMALL HAND OR FINGER. *JB

MY NISSAN QUEST 2005 COMPUTER SYSTEM FAILED WHEN MY WIFE AND I AND KID WAS DRIVING IN INTERSECTION. GAS PEDAL WAS NOT RESPONDING. WE BY MIRACLE AVOIDED AN ACCIDENT WITH A BIG TRUCK ON IRVING PARK RD IN CHICAGO. DEALER FOUND THROTTLE CHAMBER ELECTRONICS FAILED AND WAS REPLACED 08/28/06. THEY HAVE OLD PARTS. PART NR. 16119-8J103 I WILL FILE STATE ATTORNEY ABOUT REPLACEMENT OF CAR BECAUSE I SCARE TO DRIVE NOW. *JB

WATER HAS LEAKED INTO THE CAR FROM THE AREA OF THE SUNGLASS HOLDER ON TWO OCCASIONS. THE SUNGLASS HOLDER IS LOCATED IN THE MIDDLE RIGHT AT THE TOP EDGE OF THE WINDSHIELD. ON ONE OCCASION IT LEAKED AFTER WASHING THE CAR. ON THE SECOND OCCASION IT HAPPENED DURING A HEAVY RAINSTORM. THE DEALER WOULD NOT FIX OR INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM FURTHER BECAUSE THEIR GLASS CONTRACTOR COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM USING A HOSE. *NM

WE RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER FROM NISSAN ON A SEAT PROBLEM ON OUR 2005 QUEST [XXX] LAUNCHED IN OCTOBER 2005. HERE IT IS END OF MARCH 2006 AND I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET THE DEFECT REPAIRED BECAUSE OF LACK OF AVAILABILITY OF PARTS FOR MY VEHICLE. I HAVE CALLED BOTH THE LOCAL DEALER AND THE CORPORATE OFFICE OF NISSAN AND SO FAR NOBODY HAS BEEN ABLE TO TELL ME WHEN THE PART WILL COME IN. THE CORPORATE OFFICE HAS NOT RETURNED REPEATED REQUESTS FOR RETURN CALLS. WHEN I CALL I WAS GIVEN A FILE NUMBER OF [XXX] AND WAS SUPPOSED TO GET A CALL FROM A "SPECIALIST" NAMED RONNIE BUT I AM STILL WAITING. *NM UPDATED 07/16/2012 *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

CONSUMER 2005 NISSAN QUEST CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE WHEN BRAKES WERE DEPRESSED. *TS THE CONSUMER MANAGED TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO THE PARK POSITION. THEN TURNED THE KEY TO OFF. THE ENGINE WAS STILL RACING LOUDLY BEFORE THE CONSUMER TURNED THE KEY TO THE OFF POSITION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, HOWEVER THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE CONSUMERS CONCERN. *JB

POWER WINDOW IN THE 2005 QUEST ROLLED UP ON DRIVER'S HEAD WHILE IT WAS OUT OF THE WINDOW. *TS THE WINDOWS HAVE AND AUTOMATIC ROLL UP FEATURE. THE CONSUMER ACCIDENTALLY HIT THE SWITCH WHILE HEAD WAS OUT THE WINDOW AND THE WINDOW ROLLED UP. THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE AUTOMATIC DOOR SLIDING DOOR CLOSED ON THE CONSUMER'S FINGER. THE CONSUMER AS TAKEN TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM. THE FINGER WAS NOT BROKEN. *NM

OUTER REAR SEAT BELTS DO NOT WORK PROPERLY. THERE IS STITCHING IN THE SEAT BELT THAT DOES NOT ALLOW THE CLASP TO MOVE FREELY. THE CLASP GETS STUCK BELOW THE STITCHING AND IT GETS STUCK ABOVE THE STITCHING. I CHILD CANNOT WORK THE SEAT BELT PROPERLY. ONCE THE CLASP IS BELOW THE STITCHING WILL IT WORK PROPERLY IN AN ACCIDENT? *NM
