2012 NISSAN QUEST Complaints

I WAS DRIVING TODAY WITH MY FAMILY ON MY 2012 NISSAN QUEST WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE RIGHT BACK DOOR OPEN AND CLOSE WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, LUCKILY MY DAUGHTER WAS WEARING HER SEAT BELT AND NOTHING HAPPENED THIS IS UNSAFE, THIS IS AN UNSAFE CAR TO DRIVE, I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY CANT FIX IT BECAUSE IS A LONG WEEKEND AND THEY DONT WANT TO WORK. THIS IS NOT THE WAY TO TREAT A CUSTOMER, YOU GET PAY TO WORK THEN DO YOU JOB. NISSAN ARE THE WORSE CAR. I WILL HOLD NISSAN 100% RESPONSIBLE IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO ME OR MY FAMILY WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

MAY 2014, I HAD A WET DRIVER SIDE A PILLAR THAT WAS LEAKING. NISSAN ATTRIBUTED IT TO A DEFECTIVE SUNROOF WITH A CRACK. THE HEADLINER, SUBWOOFER AND AMPLIFIER WERE REPLACED. ON JULY 10, 2015, I TOOK MY CAR TO A FLAGSHIP CARWASH. AFTER MY CAR WAS WASHED I NOTICED WATER ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE REAR SUNROOF AND ON THE HEADLINER IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE ON BOTH THE RIGHT AND LEFT SIDES OF THE CAR WAS WET IN ALL THE ABOVE NOTED LOCATIONS. MY RADIO ALSO STOPPED WORKING. NISSAN HAD MY CAR FOR FIVE DAYS AND SAID THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE LEAK OR DETERMINE WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE RADIO. THEY WOULD NOT LOOK AT THE RADIO AS IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. I TOOK MY CAR TO A LOCAL RADIO REPAIR SHOP AND THEY DISCOVERED RUST BEHIND THE PANELS IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE, IN THE CARGO AREA AND 2 INCHES OF WATER UNDER MY CARGO AREA. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED FEB 2013 NEW.

ENGINE MOUNT FOUND BROKEN DURING OIL CHANGE. CHANGED AND FOUND BROKEN AGAIN AT ABOUT 50000. CHANGED AND FOUND BROKEN A THIRD TIME AT 75000.

OUR VEHICLES AIR CONDITIONING PIPES HAVE CORRODED THROUGH TO THE POINT WHERE THE LINE HAS HOLES IN IT . THE REPAIR IS 1,200.00 WHICH IS EXTREME FOR A VEHICLE THAT IS ONLY THREE YEARS OLD AND HAS ONLY SEEN 2.5 WINTERS. OUR OTHER VEHICLE HAS SEEN FIVE WINTERS AND HAS BEEN DRIVEN IN THE SAME CONDITIONS HAS HAS NOT ONE BIT OF RUST ON IT. THE VEHICLES CONSTRUCTION OR DEFECTIVE PARTS MUST BE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE AND NISSAN SHOULD CLAIM RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS.
