• 12/28/2014· STEERING,FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE,ENGINE

  DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, AND ENGINE STALLED AND CUT OUT. LOST POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. NEEDED TO MAKE EVASIVE MOVES TO AVOID ACCIDENT AND GET OFF ROAD. CAR RAN OUT OF GAS. DASHBOARD FUEL GAUGE SAID 1/4 TANK OF GAS. ONBOARD TRIP DISPLAY SAID ZERO (0) DISTANCE TILL EMPTY, BUT I DO NOT USE THIS. I HAD TO GET ASSISTANCE AND 1 PUT LESS THAN 1 GALLON GAS IN CAR. FUEL GAUGE DID NOT MOVE AND STILL SAYS THERE IS 1/4 TANK GAS, WHILE TRIP COMPUTER REGISTERED ABOVE 0 DTE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO LOSE CONTROL OF VEHICLE UNEXPECTEDLY. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR OVER 27 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER RUN OUT OF GAS AND HAVE ALWAYS RELIED ON THE GAUGE, NOT THE TRIP COMPUTER. PLEASE INVESTIGATE AND LET ME KNOW WHAT I SHOULD DO. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I HAD 2 KIDS IN THE CAR, AND I AM GRATEFUL MY WIFE WAS NOT DRIVING, AS SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO STEER OR APPLY BRAKES IN SUCH A SITUATION WHEN LOSS OF POWER OCCURS UNDER THIS SITUATION. THE TRIP COMPUTER CAN BE WRONG, BUT THE FUEL GAUGE ON THE DASH BOARD SHOULD ALWAYS BE CORRECT. BASIC PRINCIPLE. *TR

• 12/18/2014· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

  ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION MY WIFE AND YOUNG SON BECAME STRANDED BY THE VEHICLE RUNNING OUT OF GAS WHILE THE GAS GAUGE READ UP TO 3/8 OF A TANK AND ONBOARD COMPUTER TOLD US 60+ MILES REMAINING BEFORE EMPTY. I SEE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHERS AND MY EXPERIENCES MIRROR THOSE THAT ARE ALREADY REPORTED. HOPEFULLY THE INVESTIGATION WILL PROCEED QUICKLY AND THIS MATTER WILL BE RESOLVED SOON SO I CAN TRUST THIS VEHICLE AGAIN. *TR

• 12/15/2014· FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

  THERE IS NO ACCIDENT YET AND WISH NOT TO HAPPEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT. THE CAR'S FUEL LEVEL GAUGE IS MALFUNCTION SINCE THIS MONTH, DECEMBER 2014 AND I GOT A CODE FOR P0462. I FOUND THAT IT IS VERY COMMON TROUBLESOME IN NISSAN VEHICLES AND MANY OF THEIR MODELS ARE IN RECALL BUT NOT 2007 NISSAN QUEST YET. I ALSO LEARNED THAT THIS VEHICLE IS UNDER INVESTIGATE FOR THIS MATTER. PLEASE PROCESS IT SOON. *TR

• 12/15/2009· STRUCTURE

  DURING COLD WEATHER THE BACK, SLIDING, DOORS FREEZE SHUT. IT TAKES A VERY LONG TIME FOR THEM TO "DEFROST" AND BE OPENED. ADDITIONALLY, I HAVE A SMALL CHILD IN A CARSEAT AND I NEED TO CLIMB THROUGH TO THE BACK SEATS FROM THE FRONT TO BUCKLE THEM IN. LASTLY, WHEN THE DOORS DO FINALLY THAW THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT COMES ON AND I NEED TO PULL OVER AND OPEN/CLOSE IT. *TR

• 12/07/2014· FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  DRIVING CAR W/ APPROXIMATELY 1/4 TANK SHOWN ON FUEL GAGE AND CAR STOPPED. TRIED TO START AND CAR APPEARED TO NOT HAVE ANY FUEL. FILLED TANK WITH FUEL AND CAR STARTED. HAPPENED AGAIN ON 2 MORE OCCASIONS, EACH TEAM SEEMING TO STOP WITH HIGHER LEVEL ON FUEL GAGE. PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE GETTING WORSE. LOOKED FOR RECALL ON THIS ITEM AND IDENTIFIED PROBLEM ON NUMEROUS OTHER NISSAN MODELS AND SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER CUSTOMERS NOT COVERED BY RECALL. *TR

• 12/07/2014· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

  FUEL LEVEL GAUGE SAYS A LITTLE LESS THAN 1/4 TANK WHEN FUEL TANK IS EMPTY. THIS INACCURATE FUEL LEVEL GAGE HAS STRANDED MY WIFE 5 TIMES SINCE WE'VE HAD THE VEHICLE. LAST TIME IT WAS RIGHT AFTER PASSING A TRUCK ON A TWO LANE ROAD, CREATING AN UNSAFE CONDITION. *TR

• 12/05/2014· STRUCTURE,SERVICE BRAKES

• 12/03/2018· ENGINE

  TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN QUEST. WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING A RIGHT TURN, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AND THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CONTACT WAITED FOR A MINUTE AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, BUT A FAILURE CODE COULD NOT BE FOUND. THE CONTACT CALLED FERMAN NISSAN AT (913) 933-6641 (LOCATED AT 11001 N FLORIDA AVE, TAMPA, FL 33612) AND WAS INFORMED TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER DUE TO THE DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIR FEES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE AND VIN WERE UNKNOWN.

• 12/03/2013· SERVICE BRAKES,ENGINE

  TOOK MY 2007 NISSAN QUEST IN TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR A RATTLE, VIBRATION AND PULSING OUT OF THE FRONT END. SERVICE WRITER TELLS ME IT'S A TIMING CHAIN (NOT BELT) THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I ASKED HIM IF THAT WAS THE NOISE I HEARD (I DIDN'T THINK THAT WAS THE ISSUE) AND I WAS TOLD THEY WEREN'T SURE AND THAT PROBABLY WASN'T THE NOISE I WAS HEARING. I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP ONLY TO HAVE THE VIBRATIONS WORSE, NOISE MORE PRONOUNCED AND THE THOUGHT OF A 2000.00 BILL ON THE HORIZON FOR A TIMING CHAIN. THE VEHICLE SEEMS TO PUSH AND CONSTANTLY PULL TO THE LEFT. ALIGNMENT AND NEW TIRES HAD NO EFFECT AT ALL. SOMETIMES THE VAN SEEMS UNSTABLE AT ENTRY HIGHWAY SPEEDS. NISSAN USA CLEARLY DOESN'T CARE SO I'M HOPING YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO DO SOMETHING WITH THEM. *TR

• 12/03/2012· POWER TRAIN

  VAN STARTED TO DEVELOP A JERK WHEN SHIFTING FROM PARK TO DRIVE AFTER VEHICLE HAS WARMED UP. WAS TOLD IT NEEDED MOTOR MOUNT AND SPENT $2300 AT NISSAN ON FRIDAY 11/30/12 TO HAVE SEVERAL REPAIRS INCLUDING THE FRONT MOTOR MOUNT. NO JERKING AFTER WORK WAS DONE UNTIL SUNDAY , 12/2/12. ON MONDAY 12/3/12 AFTER DRIVING MY CHILDREN TO SCHOOL, I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK TO OPEN THE POWER SIDE DOORS TO LET THEM OUT. WHEN SHIFTING BACK INTO DRIVE THE VEHICLE JERKED VIOLENTLY AND LURCHED FORWARD ABOUT 2 FEET. I DID NOT HIT THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME BUT HAD THERE BEEN SOMEONE WALKING BETWEEN THE FRONT OF MY VEHICLE AND THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME, I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE HIT THEM. I DON'T THINK IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE BUT THERE COULD BE A HAZARD IF THE VEHICLE JERKS FORWARD AT THE WRONG TIME. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE TONIGHT I FOUND THAT THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT IN THE NISSAN ALTIMA, MAXIMA, AND QUEST VEHICLES THAT UTILIZE THIS TRANSMISSION. THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST NISSAN FOR CONTINUING TO ALLOW THE DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSIONS TO BE UTILIZED AFTER THEY WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEMS. SEE WEBSITE (HTTP://WWW.CHIMICLES.COM/NISSAN-TRANSMISSION-FAILURE-ALTIMA-MAXIMA-AND-QUEST-VEHICLES). THERE IS ALSO A WEBSITE WITH OWNER'S COMMENTS ON HAVING THE SAME TRANSMISSION FAILURES TOTALING OVER 150 VICTIMS, SEE WEBSITE HTTP://CLASSACTIONLAWSUITSINTHENEWS.COM/CLASS-ACTION-LAWSUIT-COMPLAINTS/NISSAN-MAXIMA-ALTIMA-QUEST-AUTOMATIC-TRANSMISSION-CLASS-ACTION-LAWSUIT-COMPLAINT/#COMMENTS. NISSAN REFUSES TO ISSUE A RECALL OR ANY ASSISTANCE WITH THE DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION. SOME HAVE BEEN REPLACED JUST TO FAIL AGAIN IN LESS THAN A YEAR. A TRANSMISSION SHOULD NOT FAIL AT 65,000 MILES AS SEVERAL HAVE OR LAST LESS THAN A YEAR. NISSAN NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. *TR

• 11/30/2014· FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  2007 NISSAN QUEST DASH/CLUSTER CONTROL REPORTS INCORRECT FUEL GAUGE CAUSING MULTIPLE, OUT OF FUEL/EMPTY FUEL TANK SCENARIOS. ONE SCENARIO OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH FAMILY AND REPORTED 1/4 TANK 76 MILE TIL EMPTY. NISSAN CLAIMED THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. *TR

  INACCURATE FUEL GAUGE. WHEN GAUGE SHOWS 1/4 TANK RAN OUT GAS.

• 11/22/2014· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  THIS IS FURTHER TO MY COMPLAINT ABOUT INCORRECT FUEL GAUGE READING AND RUNNING OUT OF GAS THREE TIMES WHEN BOTH THE FUEL GAUGE AND DIGITAL DISPLAY HAVE TOLD ME THAT I HAD BETWEEN 80 AND 130 MILES OF TRAVEL LEFT TO TRAVEL. LOW FUEL OR RESERVE LIGHT NEVER ILLUMINATED. MY SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON AND I CONNECTED MY CAR MD READER TO THE VEHICLE DATA CONNECTION AND RAN THE DIAGNOSTIC ON IT CAME BACK WITH THE FOLLOWING REPORT. I HOPE THIS WILL HELP, STORED CODES ARE CONDITIONS THAT YOUR VEHICLE REPORTED AFTER YOUR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS SET. CARMD USES THESE CODES TO ACCURATELY IDENTIFY A MOST LIKELY REPAIR OR "CURE". RETRIEVED DIAGNOSTIC CODE: P0462 TECHNICAL DEFINITION: FUEL LEVEL SENSOR A CIRCUIT LOW INPUT GENERIC DEFINITION: THIS FAULT CODE INDICATES THE COMPREHENSIVE COMPONENT MONITOR (CCM) HAS DETECTED A MALFUNCTION IN THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR CIRCUIT. THE SIGNAL FROM THE SENSOR WAS LOWER THAN THE MINIMUM EXPECTED VALUE FOR A PREDETERMINED PERIOD OF TIME FOR THE DRIVING CONDITIONS PRESENT WHEN THE CODE WAS SET. THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR MONITORS THE AMOUNT OF FUEL IN THE FUEL TANK. A FLOAT ARM ATTACHED TO A VARIABLE RESISTOR CHANGES POSITION AS THE FUEL LEVEL CHANGES. WHEN THE FUEL LEVEL IN THE TANK IS HIGH (THE FLOAT IS 'UP') THE RESISTANCE IS LOW; AS THE FUEL LEVEL DROPS (THE FLOAT MOVES 'DOWN'), RESISTANCE INCREASES. THE SIGNAL FROM THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR IS SUPPLIED TO THE VEHICLE'S FUEL GAUGE TO PROVIDE AN INDICATION OF THE AMOUNT OF FUEL IN THE FUEL TANK. ADDITIONAL RESOURCES IN SOME INSTANCES YOUR VEHICLE'S MANUFACTURER MAY ISSUE A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB) TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM. (?) ISSUED TSB? TSB NOT AVAILABLE MAYBE THIS WILL RESOLVE THE ISSUE NOW WITH THE SAFETY FACTOR AND FAULTY FUEL READING DUE TO COMPONENT PRODUCT FAILURE. TO ME THIS SEEMS THAT A THIS WILL BE $700 REPAIR BILL FOR A 25C PART. *TR

• 11/20/2019· POWER TRAIN,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE

  MY 2007 NISSAN QUEST WITH144,500 MILES, HAS A REAL BAD CLUNKING SOUND WHEN ACCELERATING, DECELERATING, OR TAKING OFF FROM A STANDSTILL. A MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT IT IS FROM BAD MOTOR MOUNTS. WHEN ACCELERATING OR BRAKING, THE MOTOR MOVES A LOT. IT DOES NOT MAKE ANY MORE NOISES WHEN TURNING, MAINLY WIN BRAKING AND ACCELERATING, BUT ALSO WHEN THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS UP OR DOWN A GEAR.

• 11/19/2013· FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

  I WAS DRIVING AT 45 MPH AND PRESSED THE GAS. IT WAS EARLY SUNDAY MORNING, VERY LIGHT TRAFFIC. I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL TO ACCELERATE AND DID NOT HEAR THE ENGINE RESPOND. I LOOKED AT MY GAUGES AND THE TACHOMETER WAS AT 0. I REALIZED THE ENGINE WAS NOT RUNNING. I TRIED REVVING THE GAS PEDAL BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. I MANAGED TO GUIDE MY CAR OFF THE ROAD INTO AN ENTRANCE ROAD TO A BUSINESS. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND ATTEMPTED TO START IT. THE ENGINE TURNED OVER BUT WOULD NOT CATCH. THE GAS GAUGE SHOWED A QUARTER OF A TANK AND NO LIGHT WAS ON. I CALLED MY WIFE AND SHE BROUGHT A GAS CAN. I POURED IT THE GAS. THE CAR IMMEDIATELY STARTED. I WENT TO A GAS STATION. THE CAR TOOK 19 GALLONS. THE CAPACITY WAS 20 GALLONS SO THE CAR WAS EMPTY. I HAVE BEEN MONITORING SINCE. ON A TYPICAL WEEK MY CAR IS SLIGHTLY UNDER HALF A TANK. THIS WEEK MY CAR WAS A LITTLE BIT UNDER THREE QUARTER 3/4 FULL. THE TRIP ODOMETER SHOWED I HAD GONE 174 MILES. I FILLED UP THE CAR AND IT TOOK 11.3 GALLONS. THIS INDICATE THE TANK IS ALMOST EXACTLY 1/4 OFF. I WAS VERY LUCKY WHEN THE CAR STALLED I COULD PULL OFF SAFELY. I HAVE SEEN MANY POST ON THE INTERNET REGARDING THIS ISSUE ON THIS YEAR CAR. WHAT HAS TO HAPPEN TO GET THIS ADDRESSES? THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE FRONTIER AND PATHFINDER AND XTERRA ARE HAVING FOR THE SAME YEAR. THEY ALL HAVE THE SAME 3.5 LITER ENGINE. ANY ONE CHECKING TO SEE IF THE QUEST HAS THE SAME FUEL PUMP/SENDER ASSEMBLY? THE SIMILARITIES ARE JUST TO OBVIOUS. *TR

• 11/14/2015· POWER TRAIN,ENGINE

  A HOSE THAT MOVES ANTIFREEZE COOLANT INTO VEHICLE I BELIEVE TO BE CAKED A VACUUM HOSE FELL OFF CAUSING COOLANT TO LEAK OUT COMPLETELY... IN ADDITION THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES FOR NO REASON AND JERKS.. I WAS TOLD TO REPLACE ASK MOTOR MOUNTS WHICH I DID AND STILL ISSUE PERSISTS .. NOW CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND STATING THE SOLENOIDS IN TRANSMISSION NEED TO BE REPLACED... VAN LOSES POWER UNEXPECTEDLY. . THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING MOSTLY AT LOW SPEEDS

• 11/11/2014· FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  I JUST PURCHASED MY 2007 NISSAN QUEST IN MAY AND AFTER A MONTH IT STARTED DYING ON ME AS I WAS DRIVING. IT WAS OUT OF GAS BUT SAID IT HAD PLENTY OF GAS IN IT. IT ISN'T CONSISTENT EITHER, I COULD HAVE THE GAS GAUGE AT 1/8 OF A TANK AND IT WOULD STILL BE RUNNING OR IT WOULD READ ABOVE 1/4 OF A TANK AND IT WOULD BE DEAD ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE DTE GAUGE SAYS I HAVE ANOTHER 60+ MILES TO GO WHEN IT DIES. I AM TIRED OF RUNNING OUT OF GAS BECAUSE MY GAS GAUGE DOESN'T WORK CORRECTLY. *TR

• 11/10/2015· ENGINE

  BOUGHT MY 2007 NISSAN QUEST IN 8/5/13 WITH THE DEALER CONVINCE MY THAT THE VEHICLE IS GOOD AND INSPECTED BUMPER TO BUMPER,AFTER DRIVING FOR A FEW TIMES, MILEAGE WAS 73,000 AND PRESENT IS 83,000 MILES,I STARTED HEARING NOISE COMING FROM THE TIMING COMPARTMENT,I CALLED NISSANUSA AND INFORMED THEM AND THEY ADVS TO TAKE IT IN FOR INSPECTION,THEY FOUND THAT THE GUIDE FOR THE TIMING CHAIN SYSTEM HAS BROKEN AND IF NOT REPLACE IT WILL CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE AND SERIOUS ACCIDENT,SO NOW I CAN'T USE THE VEHICLE.

• 11/09/2016· POWER TRAIN

  WHILE DRIVING, THE TRANSMISSION STARTED JERKING AND MORE OFTEN THAN NOT SLAMS INTO GEAR. MAKES AN AWFUL BANGING NOISE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. LOSING TRANS FLIUD, SEEMS LIKE WE ARE GOING THROUGH JUGS OF FLUID. ALSO HAD A COOLANT LEAK, EVEN AFTER HAVING NEW RADIATOR INSTALLED, STILL SMELL COOLANT AND IT'S BEEN A WHILE WHEN THE CARE IS BEING CHECKED, MECHANIC CAN'T SEEM TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. VERY FRUSTRATING AND SCARY WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING. HAPPENS MORE SO WHEN HIGHWAY DRIVING OR IF THE CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING FOR SOME TIME.

• 11/06/2013· FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

  TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN QUEST. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATOR DISPLAYED INACCURATE INFORMATION AND AS A RESULT THE VEHICLE STALLED AND BEGAN TO HESITATE BECAUSE THE FUEL TANK WAS EMPTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 103,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 123,000. ..UPDATE 04-10-14 *BF

• 11/03/2014· FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  THE VEHICLE FUEL GAUGE AND TRIP METER BOTH SHOW THAT I HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY MORE FUEL THAN IS ACTUALLY THE CASE, CAUSING ME TO BE STRANDED BESIDE THE ROAD WITH NO GAS. THIS FAULT HAS CAUSED MY WIFE AND MY DAUGHTER WHO WAS A SMALL CHILD TO BE STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN PRECARIOUS SITUATIONS. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO NISSAN BUT THEY BLEW ME OFF. I TOLD THEM THAT SIMILAR VEHICLES HAD BEEN RECALLED BUT THEY SAID THAT MY VEHICLE WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE VEHICLES THAT WERE AFFECTED. *TR

• 10/31/2018· ENGINE

  TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN QUEST. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED AS THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT ABLE TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TOWED AND WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT CALLED PASSPORT NISSAN OF MARLOW HEIGHTS DEALER ((301) 423-8400, 5500 AUTH WAY, MARLOW HEIGHTS, MD 20746) AND WAS INFORMED, THE VIN WAS NOT PART OF A RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT PART OF A RECALL AND DID NOT OFFER FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 159,000.

• 10/30/2015· STEERING,ENGINE

  THE PRESSURE POWER STEERING HOSE DEVELOPS A TERRIBLE LEAK. EVENTUALLY REQUIRED A 1/2 BOTTLE OF PS FLUID NEARLY EVERY DAY! THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE HOSE IS "BURIED" BEHIND THE ENGINE AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO REPLACE. A REPLACEMENT HOSE IS LESS THAN $100 BUT IT TAKES MULTIPLE HOURS OF PAIN AND FRUSTRATION TO REPLACE. THIS TYPE OF POOR WORKMANSHIP IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. THE FACT THAT IT'S SO DIFFICULT TO FIX A KNOWN PROBLEM IS UNCONSCIONABLE. NISSAN SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES FOR TAKING ADVANTAGE OF CONSUMERS. THE LEAKED CAUSED STEERING ISSUES ON NUMEROUSE OCCASIONS. IT NEVER FAILED COMPLETELY DUE TO THE FACT THAT I CARRIED A GALLON JUG OF PS FLUID WITH ME EVERYWHERE I WENT. NOW, NOT ONLY DID IT TAKE ME FOREVER TO REPAIR THIS ITEM, MY DRIVEWAY IS AN EYESORE. POWER STEERING FLUID IS A VERY CAUSTIC PRODUCT AND DOES NOT CLEAN UP THEREFORE IT HAS DESTROYED MY DRIVEWAY. I'M SORELY DISAPPOINTED.

• 10/30/2015· STRUCTURE

  TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN QUEST. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE VIBRATED VIOLENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE DETAILS OF THE REPAIR WERE UNKNOWN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 185,000.

• 10/30/2015· ENGINE

  THIS IS BY FAR THE WORST CASE OF NEGLIGENCE I HAVE WITNESSED FROM AN AUTOMAKER! AGAIN NISSAN IGNORES AND COVERS UP A KNOWN PROBLEM. THE TIMING CHAIN 'DEATH RATTLE' IS HIGHLY ANNOYING AND MAKES THE OWNER FEEL AS IF THE ENGINE WILL 'GO' AT ANY MINUTE. THE FACT THAT THE REPAIR/REPLACEMENT CANNOT BE PERFORMED WITHOUT REMOVING THE ENGINE FROM THE CAR IS APPALLING. THE POOR DESIGN ON THE TENSIONER GUIDE IS WELL DOCUMENT BY NISSAN AND YET THEY CONTINUED TO PASS OFF INFERIOR PRODUCTS TO UNSUSPECTING CUSTOMERS. TRULY, TRULY DISGUSTING BEHAVIOR FROM AN AUTOMAKER. TO EASE THEIR CONSCIOUS THEY ISSUES A TSB ON THE SUBJECT. WHAT THEY NEED TO DO IS ISSUE AN IMMEDIATE RECALL ON ALL VEHICLES AFFECTED. MY DEALER QUOTED ME $2800 TO FIX THIS DEFECT. $2800! $2800! ARE YOU SERIOUS? NISSANS LACK OF CONSIDERATION FOR THE CUSTOMER IS INEXCUSABLE.

• 10/28/2013· FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

  VEHICLE RAN OUT OF GAS EVEN THOUGH THE FUEL GAUGE READ JUST BELOW 1/4 TANK AND THE LOW FUEL LIGHT DID NOT COME ON. *TR ..UPDATE 04-10-14 *BF THE DEALER FINALLY REPLACED THE FUEL SENDING UNIT. UPDATED 07/23/14

• 10/24/2014· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  WAS DRIVING NEAR MY HOME WHEN THE VEHICLE ENGINE SIMPLY SHUT OFF AND STOPPED WORKING AND I HAD TO COAST TO A STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE STREET. FORTUNATELY I WAS AT LOW SPEED (ABOUT 25MPH) AND NOT IN A SITUATION WHERE THE HAZARD MIGHT HAVE BEEN HIGHER, SINCE THE POWER BRAKES ALSO SHUT OFF WITH THE MOTOR. I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENED SINCE MY FUEL GAUGE WAS SHOWING A LITTLE OVER 1/4 TANK FULL AND THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON. AFTERWARDS I FIGURED THAT IT WAS PROBABLY LACK OF GAS, EVEN THOUGH THE INDICATOR STILL SHOWED OVER 1/4 TANK FULL, SO I WENT TO GET A SOME GAS AND PUT 5 GALLONS IN THE VEHICLE AND IT STARTED IMMEDIATELY, ON FIRST TRY. *TR

• 10/23/2018· FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  THE FUEL METER DON'T SHOW THE FUEL MEASUREMENT.

• 10/22/2016· ENGINE

  TRANSMISSION JERKS/SLIPS BETWEEN GEARS ON DAILY BASIS. THIS JUST APPEARED IN THE SPRING AND HAS BEEN AN ONGOING/INCREASING PROBLEM SINCE THEN. HAVE TAKEN CAR TO MECHANIC AT LEAST 3 TIMES AND ASKED FOR RESOLUTION. MECHANICS HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO REPLICATE OR FIX THE PROBLEM. IT IS ESPECIALLY PREVALENT IF TAKE FOOT OFF GAS, COAST, THEN PUT FOOT ON GAS AGAIN. SOMETIMES THE JERK IS SEVERE ENOUGH TO AFFECT THE PEOPLE SITTING IN THE CAR. IT SEEMS LIKE EVENTUALLY THE CAR WILL JUST NOT ENGAGE AND I'LL HAVE TO LEAVE IT ON SIDE OF ROAD.

• 10/22/2007· SEATS

  TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN QUEST. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO ADJUST THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT, HER FINGERS MET EXPOSED METAL. AS A RESULT, SHE SUSTAINED CUTS TO HER FINGERS. AS OF OCTOBER 22, 2007, THE DEALER HAD NOT INSPECTED THE VEHICLE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 3,000.

• 10/21/2015· POWER TRAIN

  ^ MONTHS AGO TRANIMISSIN STARTED TO JERK, FOUND ONLINE THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH NISSAN 3.5 TRANSMISSIONS. LOOKED AT WAYS PEOPLE HAD FIXED THE PROBLEM. REPLACE 3 TRANMISSION SOLINOIDS. WORKED GREAT FOR 3 MONTHS AFTER REPAIR TODAY IT JERKED REALLY BAD AND THE NOW IT WILL NOT ACCELERATE. I HAVE TO DRIVE IN LOW TO GO ANYWHERE BECAUSE I HAVE 5 CHILDREN AND THIS IS MY ONLY CAR I HAVE TO PICK THGEM UP FROM SCHOOL AND TAKE MY 100% DISABLED WIFE TO AND FROM DOCTORS APPTS. THIS IS JUST REDICIULOUS THAT NISSAN KNOWS THEIR IS AN ISSUE HAD THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS AND YET WILL NOT DO ANYTHING FOR THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE ISSUES WITH THEIR CARS. THEY WILL NOT EVEN TRY GIVE A DISCOUNT ON PARTS AND LABOR FOR THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE THESE ISSUES.

• 10/21/2014· FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  WHILE DRIVING OUR CAR SUDDENLY STALLED CAUSING OUR VAN TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. WE WERE ALMOST HIT TWICE WHILE SITTING THERE AS IT WAS A BUSY ROAD. THE GAS GAUGE SHOWED OVER A 1/4 OF A TANK AND THE DISPLAY FUEL ECONOMY SCREEN SAID 57 MILES REMAINING IN THE TANK, BUT THE TANK WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY. WE HAVE RAN OUT OF GAS TWICE BECAUSE OF THIS. THE GAUGE STOPS MOVING DOWN AT THE SAME SPOT EACH TIME AND THE DISPLAY SHOWED DIFFERENT MILES REMAINING BOTH TIMES (57 & 110 MILES). WE HAD THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED AS THIS WAS THE ONLY THING THE MECHANIC COULD THINK WAS WRONG WITH IT. NOT SAFE STALLING AND HAVING NO WHERE TO PULL OVER. *TR

GLASS WAS IN CHUNKS, SAFETY GLASS LIKE PIECES, AND SMALL SHARDS INCLUDING VERY FINE SHARP PIECES. A LITTLE GLASS AROUND SUNROOF ON OUTSIDE BUT VERY LITTLE - MOSTLY INTO THE INTERIOR.

• 10/12/2016· FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  THE FUEL GUAGE IS MALFUNCTIONING. I HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. I HAVE REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AND FUEL SENSOR AND THE ISSUE IS STILL PRESENT. THE VEHICLE RAN OUT OF GAS IN MOTION ON A BUSY STREET, THEN ON A BUSY EXIT RAMP, ONCE ON INTERSTATE 695 IN BALTIMORE. THE VEHICLE WAS NEARLY HIT BY TRAFFIC BEHIND THE VEHICLE WHEN IT RAN OUT OF GAS DUE TO A FAULTY FUEL GAUGE.

  WAS DRIVING VEHICLE AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH WHEN THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STALLED AND ALL POWER CONTROLS WERE LOST SUCH AS POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. CAR WAS CAREFULLY MANEUVERED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. AFTER A THOROUGH INSPECTION IT WAS FOUND THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF FUEL HOWEVER THE FUEL GAUGE READ JUST LITTLE BELOW 1/4 OF A TANK. IT WAS BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION VIA THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND I ALSO BELIEVE THAT THE SITUATION OF LOSING ALL FUNCTIONS OF THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT AND WAS A THREAT TO SAFETY. *TR

  THE CAR HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING FUEL GAUGE ISSUES - VERY SIMILAR TO PE14012 FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS WHERE WE COULD NOT RELY ON THE GAUGE AND STARTED USING THE TRIP ODOMETER WHENEVER WE FILLED UP.

I WAS UNSURE OF WHY I FIRST BECAUSE MY GAS GAUGE SHOWED I HAD A QUARTER OF A TANK. I GOT FUEL PUT IN IT AND THEN IT WORKED. THIS YEAR I HAD MY ENGINE LIGHT COME ON AND SHOWED A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL SENDING UNIT. I TOOK IT TOO THE GARAGE AND HAD TO CHANGE THE FUEL PUMP AND SENDING UNIT. AFTER FIXING THE FUEL PUMP, I DROVE FOR 300 MILES AND MY GAS GAUGE ONLY MOVED A QUARTER OF TANK DOWN, MEANING MY FUEL GAUGE IS STILL NOT WORKING. NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND IS UNSAFE IF YOU ARE ON A HIGHWAY AND LOSE POWER TO YOUR CAR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. *TR

  FUEL GAUGE GOES FROM FULL TO EMPTY WHEN IT'S ALMOST FULL, NISSAN DID A FUEL SENDER CAMPAIGN REPAIR BUT IT DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM...THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I START THE CAR AND DRIVE JUST A MILE OR SO

• 10/02/2014· FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  I WAS DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65 MPH WHEN MY VAN STARTED DECELERATING. I TRIED PRESSING ON THE GAS, BUT THE VAN WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED. I PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND THE VAN ROLLED TO A STOP AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AND HAD IT TOWED TO A REPAIR FACILITY. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT I RAN OUT OF GAS EVEN THOUGH MY FUEL GAUGE SHOWED THAT I HAD ONE-QUARTER OF A TANK. I CHECKED ONLINE AND SEE THAT THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

• 09/28/2015· FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  THIS IS PROBABLY THE 4TH TIME I HAVE STALLED OUT I LOOSE POWER STEERING WHEN CAR STALLS AND I WAS DRIVING IN A LOT OF TRAFFIC. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS ON THE FREE WAY. GAS GAUGE SHOWS I HAVE OVER A QUARTER OF A TANK THE DISTANCE TO EMPTY SHOWS THAT I HAVE ANY WHERE FROM 18-70 MILES LEFT AND I STALL OUT. AFTER PUTTING GAS IN THE TANK THE CAR FUNCTIONS AGAIN. THERE IS NO ILLUMINATED LIGHT, NO NOTIFICATION IN THE FORM OF A SOUND OR DING. I WATCH MY MILES BUT WHEN YOU VARY BETWEEN IN TOWN AND HIGHWAY MILES THEY ARE NOT ALWAYS THE SAME. I HAVE DRIVEN 400 MILES BEFORE NEEDING TO FILL UP AND 283 MILES ON THE ODOMETER WHEN TANK HAS EMPTIED AND STALLED OUT. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR 19 YEARS WITHOUT EVER RUNNING OUT OF GAS IN AT LEAST 14 OTHER VEHICLES, AND I HAVE RUN OUT 4 TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS FAULTY GAUGE IN THE NISSAN QUEST. VERY FRUSTRATING!!!

  LATELY, WHEN I START THE CAR, THERE IS A RATTLING SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE. IT COMES FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES AND THEN IT GOES AWAY. I HAVE NOTICED IT ON COLD STARTS. MY MECHANIC SAYS, IT COULD BE THE TIMING CHAIN ISSUE. WHEN I SEARCH THE NISSAN FORUMS, I SEE A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE. THE COST TO FIX THIS IS AROUND 2000.00. I AM NOT SURE IF I SHOULD FIX THIS NOW OR WAIT FOR NISSAN TO ISSUE A RE-CALL FOR THIS. SINCE THE RATTLING SOUND GOES AWAY AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES, ONE PART OF ME TELLS ME I CAN CONTINUE TO DRIVE LIKE THIS. ANOTHER PART TELLS ME WHAT IF THE TIMING CHAIN FAILS IN A BUSY HIGHWAY CAUSING A CRASH. PLEASE REVIEW AND MAKE NISSAN ISSUE A RE-CALL FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE.
