2004 NISSAN QUEST Complaints

THE CONSUMER COMPLAINED ABOUT THE WHEEL COVERS THAT PRESSED AGAINST THE VALVE STEMS. AFTER CHANGING THE POSITION OF THE WHEEL COVER, IT TURNED BACK TO PRESSING THE WHEEL COVER OVER THE VALVE STEM. THE CONSUMER WANTS A LETTER FROM THE MANUFACTURER INDICATING THAT ALTHOUGH ITS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE, HE WOULD LIKE AN EXPLANATION AS TO WHY THEY APPEAR THIS WAY. PROVIDE FURTHER DETAILS. *JB

THE CONSUMER HAD TROUBLE BRAKING WHEN GOING DOWN A HILL. THERE WAS TREMENDOUS HEAT BEING RELEASED FROM THE BRAKES. TAKEN TO DEALER FOR CHECKUP. *JB. THE LOWEST AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HA DNO SLOWING EFFECT ON DOWN HILL SPEED. THIS REQUIRED BRAKE USAGE. AT THE BRAKE CHECK POINT BRAKE LEAP WAS 385 DEGREES. ANYTHING OVER 350 DEGRESS REQUIRES AT LEAST A 45 MINUTE WAIT BEFORE CONTINUING. WHILE THE BRAKES DID NOT FAIL COMPLETELY, THEY WERE APPROACHING A TEMPERATURE WHICH COULD RESULT IN FAILURE. *AK

THE DOOR LOCKED PERIODICALLY, WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE, ALTHOUGH THE LOCKING MECHANISM WAS NOT ENGAGED. *NM *TC *JB

WHILE ENGAGING THE VEHICLE INTO DRIVE IT SEEMED LIKE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS APPLIED, AND WHEN THE GEARS SHIFTED, THE VEHICLE JERKED BACK AND FORWARD. *AK

DRIVER AND PASSENGER WINDOWS WILL NOT STOP ONCE CONSUMER RAISES THEM. DEALER FOUND NO DEFECTS, HOWEVER THE MECHANIC'S FINGER WAS CAUGHT.*AK

04 V 186 000/POWER SLIDING DOOR: AFTER THE RECALL REPAIRS WERE MADE THE POWER SLIDING DOOR WOULD NOT STAY LATCH/LOCK PROPERLY WHEN CLOSING THE DOOR. SOMETIMES THE DOOR NEEDED TO BE SLAMED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IT STAYED CLOSE/LOCK OR THE DOOR WOULD INTERMITTENTLY OPEN WHILE IN MOTION. *JB

MALFUNCTION OF SLIDING DOOR AND AIR BAG AFTER RECALL WORK WAS PERFORMED. *BF NEITHER OF THESE SYSTEMS HAD A PROBLEM PRIOR TO THE VEHICLE BEING TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE. THE DEALER HAS AGREED TO LOOK AT THE SLIDING DOOR BUT REFUSES TO LOOK AT THE AIR BAG PROBLEM. *NM *TC *JB

TRANSMISSION WAS JUMPING GEARS. CONSUMER WAS BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY AND VEHICLE SUDDENLY WENT INTO NEUTRAL BY ITSELF. CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO DEALER, BUT WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. DEALER WAS NOT SURE WHAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE PROBLEM. *AK

HAVE 10,000 MILES ON MY 2004 NISSAN QUEST AND THEY HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION 9/04. NOW TWO WEEKS LATER IT'S DOING THE SAME THING IT DID WHEN THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER CAN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AND THEY WON'T PULL THE PAN.

WHEN AN ADULT SITS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT THE AIR BAG WOULD SHUT OFF. DEALERSHIP WAS NOTIFIED, BUT DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. *AK CONSUMER IS A 128 POUND ADULT. *TC
