1995 Nissan Quest fuel system complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 33 of 33, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Engine quit entirely when traveling at 77 MPH on interstate .was able to coast into rest area. Was towed to nissan dealer in tallahassee , fl and the fuel pump was replaced. This was not reported at the time to ntsa . I am reporting this now because I now know the problem is wide spread. My son in law bought a quest the same time and he has had 4 failures.2 occured last week. We now find out his sister owns a quest and she has had a failure. It appears the failure occurs at high speeds in hot driving conditions. My concern now is it will happen again if the problem still exists. I have not duplicated those conditions I just described since my incident, but my son in law has. He lives in ca.
We have had three separate incidents when either climbing a mountain or driving through hot dessert conditions that our minivan would suddenly stop! The aaa worker told us that he sees this "all the time" and has to do "weak fuel pumps" in minivans that fail when stressed! Our last incident was dangerous occurring on hwy 40 to be repeatedly stuck with high speed trucks passing by us. Our nissan dealer checked his record (a few months back)and confirmed that nissan was aware of this problem but said that it would cost us >$700 to fix to change the fule pump. The latest nissan recall of the fuel hose may also have something to do with this issue. Well we found out the hard way in the hot dessert since this problem does not surface driving in the "cooler" los angeles area.
After filling fuel tank fuel gauge erratically registers correct levels of fuel. Cause unknown. Please give any further details.
The problem with fuel pump wiring inside of fuel tank. The problem started about a year ago with the fuel pump's performance,such as humming sound from tank section or no pump start up at starting the engine. But last day of march of this year I was not able to start the car at all due to complete pump failure. I consider my self as very good mechanic as far as car is concern. When I open the fuel pump assembly , I discovered two electrcal wires,red(+) and black(-), were tangled each other. Due to friction of two wires together, red wire's insulation were may be two paper-thin leftbof bare copper wire. Black wire were even thinner than red's where I can almost see the bare wires. I could only imagine what could hapen with electrical short inside the fuel tank. I replaced the fuel pump with original factory part with different rearrangement of electrical wires. I was very lucky to find the problem earlier. You may call me at work or e-mail me .
Gas does not stay in tank long. After a short distance there is hardly any gas left in tank. Consumer can smell gas in car.
While driving could smell a strong smell of fuel that forced consumer to drive with window down. Had received a recall notice for fuel tank vent hose, but dealer will not take care of that recall unless consumer picked up the expenses. *ak consumer states recall repair was completed with no cost, however dealer stated that the problem was with the fuel injection and it was spraying gas onto the engine, consumer will have to pay for this repair.
The consumers vehicle has experienced symptoms of recall 00v‑419 of the fuel tank vent hose prior to recall notification. Nlm
Consumer had a fuel pump installed by dealer. Also, axle was replaced and when she turned vehicle there was a noise, like vehicle was going to break. Consumer has to continue to put power steering inside of vehicle. Dealership was aware of problem.
Gas fumes in passenger compartment - dealer has applied the 2 service bulletins governing the fuel tank assembly and sealing around fuel filler spout .
Fuel leaks when filled to pump first cutoff, while standing at pump.
I noticed recall on quest by accident while surfing the internet. Company never informed me of this recall inspite of my address and phone number on record , as per co. Rep.... These recalls should be notified by certified mail. It is a shame that these companies can get away by not informing the customers by proper mails and/or widespread tv/internet/radio advertisements.
Ea oo 015/fuel tank vent hose leakage: at 80,000 miles strong fuel odor/vapor would enter into the vehicle when running after 20 minute or less; taken to a independence repairs shop and unable to correct the problem. Please feel free to provide any further details:
When the fuel tank is filled and the vehicle is parked on slightly inclined driveway, fuel leaks out onto driveway from fuel tank line area.. This happens every time the fuel tank gets filled and is a safety hazard..
This problem (especially the steering) has been reported. The vehicle has caused problems engine and other, rear axle, gas smell inside vehicle, air bag defect.
Fuel is leaking from under the tank when the tank is filled . The dealer is inspecting, and will repair the vehicle.
No summary listed for above vehicle.
My wife complained of a strong gasoline odor inside the car. The dealer discovered that the fuel lines over the engine were cracked and were leaking gasoline. We have owned 6 automobiles (all bought new), and this is the first time that one has had a problem with the fuel lines.
Leakage from loose clamp on hose attached to fuel rail assembly. Consumer has had it repaired.
While fueling my 1995 nissan quest I noticed fuel dripping from underneath. I had been noticing a fuel smell for sometime after fueling for several months until the leak developed. When I got where I could make a complete inspection I crawled under my vehicle and found there are 2 rubber lines which lead from the fuel neck into the gas tank. I noted that the small line (know as a vent line) had some cracks in it and also I could see vapors emitting from the cracks. I feel like this could be a potential fire hazard and also a hazard to the occupants of the auto because those vapors could possibly enter into the passenger compartment. Also this is an enviromential hazard since gas vapors are allowed to vent into the atmosphere. I have talked to several people and also some mechanics and found this to be a common problem. I replaced the vent hose on my auto and it seems to have cured the problem. I feel like this problem needs to be investigated and should there be a wide spread problem then the part needs to be replaced with a better quality rubber.
Nissan has service bulletin for cavitation in fuel pump, causing failure. We were stopped in slow lane on 4 lane bridge with vehicles traveling at high speed. Requested manufacturer to replace fuel pump. They only offered 50%. My entire family (incl. Myself) was placed in danger. This service bulletin needs to be a recall.
Fuel rail bends where the weld is causing fuel leakage. Dealer has been notified.
Fuel door will not open.
