I WENT TO PICK UP A COMPUTER/ MODEM. I GOT HOME AND PICKED IT UP OUT OF THE BACK SEAT, THE SIDE MY AUTOMATIC DOOR IS ON. THE CORNER OF THE MODEM HIT THE LITTLE OPEN/SHUT BUTTON. IT CRUSHED BOTH MY ARMS BETWEEN THE DOOR AND MODEM I LOOKED LIKE I HAD BEEN HIT WITH A BASEBALL BAT ON BOTH OF THEM. IF IT HAD BEEN ONE OF MY CHILDREN, IT COULD HAVE EASILY BROKEN A ARM/LEG, AND I DON'T WANT TO EVEN THINK ABOUT IF THEIR HEAD GOT IN IT SOME WAY. THE DEALER TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO FOR IT, EXCEPT COMPLAIN TO YOU ALL. SO I AM, I LOVE MY VAN, BUT I DON'T LET MY CHILDREN GET IN THE AUTOMATIC DOOR WITHOUT SUPERVISION.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE (TCM/PCM/TECM)
THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPED ON THREE OCCASIONS. FIRST TIME IT FAILED TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP. I HAD TO ALMOST FLOOR THE GAS PEDAL BEFORE IT BEGAN TO MOVE. IT FINALLY CORRECTED ITSELF AFTER A COUPLE MILES. THE SECOND EVENT, I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED WELL, BUT WHEN THE PEDAL WAS RELEASED, THE ENGINE RPMS DROPPED TO IDLE, I WAS DOING 60 MPH. THIS HAPPENED THE WHOLE TRIP, AFTER IT WAS PARKED FOR A FEW MINUTES I RESTARTED IT . THE DRIVE HOME WAS UNEVENTFUL. THE THIRD EVENT WAS THE SAME AS THE FIRST, THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPED AS THOUGH THERE WAS NO FLUID IN IT. I BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALER AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, AND TOLD ME IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN TO GO TO THE CLOSEST DEALER WHILE THE PROBLEM WAS HAPPENING. AFTER READING SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THIS WEBSITE, THERE IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.*AK

EQUIPMENT, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
ON MARCH 31 2004, MY WIFE AND I PURCHASED A 2004 NISSAN QUEST SE. (VIN 5N1BV2U44N352872). THE REASON FOR THE PURCHASE WAS DUE TO THE SIZE AND AGES OF OUR FAMILY MEMBERS. WE HAVE 4 CHILDREN. THEY ARE AGED AS FOLLOWS: 14 YEARS, 11 YEARS, 20 MONTHS, 6 WEEKS. SINCE WE HAVE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE WE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM OVER AND OVER. WITH ABOUT 350 MILES ON IT, THE AIR CONDITIONER LOCKED UP AND THE COMPRESSOR WAS REPLACED. AROUND MAY WE NOTICED THE AC WAS NOT COOLING THE VAN OFF AT ALL. KEEP IN MIND WE ARE IN TEXAS AND THIS IS ONE OF THE MILDER MONTHS. WE TOOK THE VAN IN SOMETIME IN EARLY JUNE TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT. SHORTLY THERE AFTER THEY RETURNED THE VEHICLE STATING IT WAS PERFORMING TO MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS. I THEN WENT AND PURCHASED A AC VENT THERMOMETER. ON LOW THE TEMPERATURE BLOWING OUT OF THE VENTS IS COLD AROUND 50 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT. HOWEVER WHEN YOU TURN IT TO MEDIUM OR HIGH SPEED THE TEMPERATURE THAT BLOWS OUT AT THE VENTS IS AROUND 70-75 DEGREES. THIS TEMPERATURE IS CONSISTENT EVEN AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS FOR APPROXIMATELY 30-35 MINUTES WITH AN OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE OF AROUND 90. (WHICH AGAIN IS MILD FOR A TEXAS SUMMER). WITH THE AIR ON HIGH FOR 30-35 MINUTES THE TEMPERATURE IN THE CABIN AT THE MIDDLE ROW OF SEATS IS 87 DEGREES. THIS IS ALSO WITH THE REAR AIR ON HIGH AS WELL. MY CHILD'S PEDIATRICIAN ADVISED ME TO NOT LET MY INFANT RIDE IN THESE TEMPERATURES FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME DUE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF DEHYDRATION. SO, BASICALLY I AM IN A $35,000 (MSRP) AUTOMOBILE THAT I CAN NOT LET MY CHILD RIDE IN ON ANY TRIPS FOR FEAR THAT HE MAY GET SICK. THIS IS NOT RIGHT AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SUFFER NOR SHOULD MY CHILD. THE VEHICLE IS SIMPLY NOT PERFORMING AS IT SHOULD.*AK

I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE IN DEALER NEW NISSAN QUEST 2004, AND SINCE I BOUGHT HAD THE PROBLEM WHEN YOU STOP AND YOU TRY TO ACCELERATE THE TRANSMISSION STOCK WHEN I KEEP PRESS THE GAS ACCELERATE AFTER THE 40 MPH THE CAR START TO RESPOND REALLY SLOWLY.
