OUR AC QUIT WORKING AND WE WERE INFORMED THAT THE AC LINES HAD HOLES IN THEM DUE TO CORROSION. THIS IS ABSURD FOR A VEHICLE ONLY THREE YEARS OLD. REPAIR ESTIMATE IS $1700 DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEY HAVE TO DROP THE SUBFRAME IN ORDER TO ACCESS THE CORRODED LINES. CLEARLY THIS IS A VEHICLE DEFECT AND NISSAN SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBLITY FOR THE SUBSTANDARD MATERIAL USED IN THESE LINES. WE APPEAR TO BE THE SECOND CONSUMER REPORTING THIS ISSUE ON THIS SITE.

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.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STRUCTURE:BODY, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
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.

OUR VEHICLES AIR CONDITIONING PIPES HAVE CORRODED THROUGH TO THE POINT WHERE THE LINE HAS HOLES IN IT .

THIS IS A FORMAL COMPLAINT TO THE TIRES/WHEELS THAT NISSAN HAS SELECTED FOR PLACEMENT ON THE 2012 NISSAN QUEST.THE TOYO A22 235/55/18 TIRES ARE COMPLETELY WORN AT 26,000 MILES.WE DID NOT DISCOVER THE ISSUE WITH THE TIRES UNTIL A THIRD PARTY INSPECTED THE VEHICLE.THE VEHICLE WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION.ALL SERVICE HAS OCCURRED AT A NISSAN AUTHORIZED DEALER AT THE RECOMMENDED INTERVALS.THE SERVICE GROUPS AT SHEEHY NISSAN AND GRAPEVINE NISSAN DID NOT ALERT US TO THE DANGERS.I HAVE SPOKEN WITH NISSAN REGIONAL CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND ALERTED THEM TO THE CONCERN AND ISSUES SURROUNDING THE RAPID WEAR.IT IS OUR BELIEF THAT THE NISSAN QUEST IS TO HEAVY FOR THE TIRES THAT WERE SELECTED ON THE VEHICLE, AND/OR THE TIRE IS DEFECTIVE. NISSAN REGIONAL CONSUMER AFFAIRS HAS DECIDED NOT TO INTERVENE, OR ASSIST ON OUR BEHALF.ACCORDING TO NISSAN EMPLOYEE [XXX],NISSAN DOES NOT HAVE INFORMATION ON THE TOYO A22 TIRE,OR KNOWLEDGE OF WEIGHT CHARACTERISTICS&WHAT CONSTITUTES ABNORMAL WEAR. WHEN EXPLAINING I WAS RECORDING THE CALL SHE ABRUPTLY HUNG UP. SHE DID STATE THAT THE TIRE WAS SOFT&DID NOT HAVE A WARRANTY. IN ADDITION, SHE STATED THAT NISSAN DOES NOT HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY TO THE CONSUMER REGARDING THE TIRES,& THAT THE ENTIRE MATTER IS TOYO'S RESPONSIBILITY.I REQUESTED TO SPEAK WITH A SUPERVISOR & WAS DENIED. I ASKED IF THE COMPLAINT COULD BE REPORTED.SHE SAID THERE WAS NO OTHER MECHANISM TO REPORT THIS WITHIN NISSAN. ACCORDING TO TOYO THE A22 235/55/18 TIRE IS A CUSTOM PART MANUFACTURED TO NISSAN SPECS.AFTER CONDUCTING AN INTERNET SEARCH THERE ARE MANY MENTIONS OF NISSAN QUEST TIRES WEARING EARLY.MY BELIEF IS THAT NISSAN HAS NOT ACCURATELY CALCULATED THE VEHICLE WEIGHT CORRECTLY,&HAS CHOSEN TIRES THAT CAN JEOPARDIZE THE SAFETY OF THE PASSENGERS&MOTORISTS. AN ADDITIONAL COMPLAINT FOR TOYO IS BEING FILED STATING THAT THE TIRE IS NOT ROBUST ENOUGH FOR THE VEHICLE WEIGHT IT IS HANDLING.

ACCORDING TO TOYO THE A22 235/55/18 TIRE IS A CUSTOM PART MANUFACTURED TO NISSAN SPECS.AFTER CONDUCTING AN INTERNET SEARCH THERE ARE MANY MENTIONS OF NISSAN QUEST TIRES WEARING EARLY.MY BELIEF IS THAT THE TOYO TIRE DOES NOT MATCH THE VEHICLE WEIGHT, OR THE TIRE IS DEFECTIVE. THE RAPID WEAR EXPERIENCED WITH THESE TIRES TIRES CAN JEOPARDIZE THE SAFETY OF THE PASSENGERS&MOTORISTS. AN ADDITIONAL COMPLAINT TO NISSAN IS BEING FILED STATING THAT THE TIRE IS NOT ROBUST ENOUGH FOR THE VEHICLE WEIGHT IT IS HANDLING. MY WIFE HAS EXPERIENCED DIFFICULTY IN WET CONDITIONS WHEN HANDLING THE VEHICLE, I BELIEVE THIS IS DUE TO THE ABNORMAL TREAD WEAR. TOYO HAS OFFERED A 35% WEAR WARRANTY ON THE TIRES. NISSAN HAS DENIED ANY WARRANTY CLAIM OR ASSISTANCE FOR THE INSTALLATION OF THE TIRES. THIS SITUATION REMINDS BE OF THE TIRE RECALLS SURROUNDING THE FORD EXPLORER IN 2000. IT IS MY (SPECULATIVE) BELIEF THAT TOYO OR NISSAN HAVE NOT NOTIFIED THE NHTSA OF THESE CONSUMER COMPLAINTS. THE TIRES MUST BE REPLACED.

TIRES, WHEELS
I HAVE 20,000 MILES ON MY CAR AND MY TIRES NEED REPLACING! I PURCHASED IT NEW IN APRIL 2012. I HAVE HAD IT FOR A YEAR AND A HALF. I DRIVE IT CAREFULLY AND HAVE THE TIRES ROTATED WHEN NEEDED. I HAD A FLAT ON MONDAY ON MY WAY TO WORK. THAT EVENING I HAD IT LOOKED AT FOR REPAIR. IT CANNOT BE REPAIRED. THE TIRE TREAD IS VERY LOW. THEY ARE BRIDGESTONE TURANZA. I BOUGHT A VAN BECAUSE I'M DRIVING CHILDREN AROUND FREQUENTLY. WHY COULDN'T NISSAN PUT BETTER TIRES ON THIS VEHICLE? WHEN YOU BUY A NEW CAR, YOU ASSUME THAT YOU WON'T HAVE TO REPAIR ANYTHING FOR SEVERAL YEARS. NOW I HAVE TO BUY A NEW SET OF TIRES AT CHRISTMAS TIME! I AM REALLY UNHAPPY! I CHECKED THIS SITE TO SEE IF THERE IS A RECALL ON TIRES. I CERTAINLY HOPE SO! *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL
I REALIZED THAT I WAS GOING FASTER THAN ALL CARS AROUND ME ON ROAD. UPON CHECKING WITH GPS ON IPHONE AND TOMTOM GPS DEVICE , THE VEHICLE INDICATED 60MPH ON SPEEDOMETER, BUT BOTH GPS DEVICES INDICATED 70MPH. I VARIED SPEED AND FOUND THE VEHICLE IS GOING 10MPH FASTER THAN INDICATED ON SPEEDOMETER AT 30-70MPH RANGE. THE CLUSTER INCLUDING SPEEDOMETER DIED AND WAS REPLACED 1 MONTH AGO. THE NEW ONE IS FAULTY AGAIN OR SET-UP WRONG. THIS IS DANGEROUS! *TR

I BOUGHT A 2012 NISSAN QUEST ALMOST 2 YEARS AGO. I HAVE 20,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND THE TIRES ARE HORRIBLE! THEY ARE BRIDGESTONE TURANZA EL 400. THEY ARE FEATHERING AND BALDING. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE IN THE RAIN OR OTHER WEATHER CONDITIONS. THESE TIRES HAVE BEEN ROTATED EVERY 5,000 MILES...IT IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING THAT YOU BUY A 30,000 VEHICLE AND HAVE TIRES THAT AREN'T WORTH ANYTHING ON IT! *TR
