1993 Nissan Quest engine complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 32 of 32, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Consumer had vehicle at dealer to get recall repairs done for a fuel vent hose, but it was other vent hose that had the problem. Dealer changed hose, but at owner's cost.*ak 00v419001 was recall number, consumer states failed part was spreading strong gas fumes.
Filling the gas tank till the gas pump automatic shut-off occurs, fuel leaks (approximately 1/2 gallon) from the fuel line going into the gas tank. Is this the fuel tank vent hose leakage described in the federal safety agency recall numbers 00v419001 & 00v419002? I need to get this corrected asap to avoid and fuel ignition possibilities. Do I have to wait until the investigation closes for a recall? I hope not.
Consumer has noticed a fuel leak underneath vehicle at vent hose whenever the tank is full. Also, there was recall number 00v419001/ fuel emission control: lines: vapor vent dealing with same problem. Manufacturer stated this vehicle was not included in recall due to VIN. Please provide any further details.
Ongoing problem with engine stalling while traveling vehicle been in/out of dealer shop on three occasions, and problem cannot be duplicated or corrected. This problem has caused an accident. *ak fuel pump was replaced and dealer stated an exhaust leak causing carbon build up in o2 sensors were causing stalling, however after repairs vehicle still stalls. Consumer can smell a gas odor outside vehicle. Transmission leaks, dealer found pan had a hole, dealer replaced pan and gasket.
I've had problems with the exhaust manifolds on this car starting on 06/29/95 with 30,887 miles r - exhaust manifold repair/studs/gaskets. 07/10/96 with 46,846 miles replaced exhaust manifold studs/gaskets. 07/17/96 with 47,664 miles replaced front exhaust manifold. 10/01/97 with 68,883 miles brought to dealer with exhaust noise and was told that they could not find the problem at this time. I was concerned that the van/repairs were getting out of warranty and the service advisor told me if it got worse it would be close enough to cover under goodwill given the history of the van. He also told me that 6cyl nissan engines have this problem. 05/06/00 with 76,670 miles again brought to dealer to advise on exhaust noise. Again they said they could not find the problem and to bring it back if it gets worse. Each time I brought the car in for exhaust repairs I was told that nissan has an inherent problem with exhaust studs breaking and then when they replace them with hardened studs, the manifolds end up cracking. This to me is an admission of a defective exhaust system yet I have never received any recall and every time after they fix it, it breaks over and over again. 04/06/00 with 102,944 miles brought again to dealer with very loud exhaust noise. Replaced rear manifold studs/gaskets. Still making noise so they replaced the front manifold studs/gaskets. Still making noise so they replaced front header pipe they say was cracked which I believe was caused from driving so long with broken studs. Cost this time was over $1,300.00. When I contacted nissan consumer affairs they made it sound like they were going to cover it given the history of the car and the cost was between $500 - $600. But once the cost went up to $1,300 they refused to cover the difference. 09/06/00 with 109,800 mile brought to dealer again with loud exhaust noise. Now they say it needs a new manifold for another $280. There are tsb's for this problem.

The exhaust manifold attaches to the engine block in two locations. The bolts vibrate loose and fall out or shear off. Some of the gasket falls out. I am told by an indepentant repair facility, that this is a typical problem with nissan quest and mercury villager mini-vans. There is a problem with exhaust fumes coming into the passenger compartment.
No summary
Exhaust manifold studs failed/broke resulting in leakage during failure, manifold gaskets are asbestos fibers which leaking into compartment during failure.
Exaust manifold studs broken (advised by mecanic common problem)
Vehicle exhaust manifold studs failed/broke. Dealer is aware of service bulletin spelling out problem. Exhaust manifolds leak during failure, manifold gaskets are asbestos fibers which leak into living compartment of vehicle during failure. Service bulletin only mentions bolt failure which dealer refuses to cover after warranty. Due to potential danger I believe that recall should be put into effect for all nissan products with this failure and asbestos warning be placed on bulletin as well. Asbestos warning only placed on replacement gasket.
