This Problem Across All Years
THE 2005 NISSAN QUEST HAD A RECALL THAT PREVENTED INJURY WHEN FOLDING DOWN THE MIDDLE SEATS. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS WERE 05V474000 AND 05V480000. AFTER HAVING THIS RECALL PERFORMED ON MY VEHICLE, IT IS NOW ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO ATTACH A CHILD RESTRAINT TETHER TO THE TETHER ANCHOR POINT. I BELIEVE THAT THE FIX FOR THIS RECALL HAS CAUSED AN EVEN MORE SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM THAN THE ONE IT ATTEMPTED TO FIX. *NM

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN QUEST MINIVAN. THE 2 SEATS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE VAN HAVE CURTAINS ON THE ALL AROUND THE BOTTOM OF THE SEAT. THESE ARE CONSTANTLY COMING UNDONE AND SPREAD OUT ON THE FLOORBOARD OF THE VAN. THEY ARE A TRIPPING HAZARD AND MY DAUGHTER HAS TRIPPED OVER THEM AND FALLEN OUT OF THE VAN AND LANDED ON CONCRETE. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER, THE ONLY RECALL IS ON THE SEATS IN THE REAR WHICH THEY HAVE REPAIRED. I WAS INFORMED TO CONTACT NISSAN DIRECTLY AND THEY JUST REFERRED ME BACK TO A DEALER (THE RUN-AROUND!!)THESE CURTAINS DO NOT STAY PUT AND SOMEONE NEEDS TO FIX THEM PERMANENTLY BEFORE SOME CHILD IS SERIOUSLY HURT. *NM

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

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)
