Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
The air bag light glitches on the dashboard, it turns on and off. The only windows that open are the front door windows, the back side windows could barely crack open && the temperature inside the vehicle "with the windows open" reach dangerously high temperatures that literally are harmful and dangerous. A family vehicle with no ability to open any window on the 2 sliding doors, can lead to very high temperatures even though the front 2 windows open is still not enough for air to reach passengers who sit in the middle-row especially passengers who sit on the 3rd row seat in the back of the van. A recall must be done to adjust the windows on both sliding doors on each side to be able to roll down the windows... The temperature trapped inside the vehicle[passengers and seats area] with all the windows open was of 99, on a regular sunny day.... We drove to where we had to go and no type of air would reach the back seats where my daughter was sitting... She began to have problems breathing and was sweating so much.. I keep her hydrated especially when we have to drive far because the AC doesnt work and we cant roll any window in the back down sin e they dont roll down... When iturn on the AC the smell of gasoline begins to come out through the vents... My car wasnt included in any recall u had before which my car nissan quest sv 2004 clearly shouldve been included for the airbag recall....
On different occasions, when attempting to drive from 0mph, the vehicle will not accelerate. I have to turn it off then turn it back on then usually it will work. Also sometimes it won't start it turns over strong but will not crank. I'll wait several minutes or so then attempted again then it will crank and drive normal.
Nissan quest cluster loses ability to moniter fuel and temperature , which caused me to run out of fuel while travelling at a speed of 55mph. After researching online I see there is a repair but how does the dealer not see an issue with this problem. The lcd screen essentially peel away from the screen due to heat or humidity . I see this as a danger and I feel it puts my family along with others in danger .
Fuel level gauge does not read accurately. Check engine light on. Car will not pass the state of ct dmv emission program.
The fuel gauge indicator is inaccurate. After the vehicle was completely fuel up, it only indicate 3/4 of a tank on the fuel gauge indicator. Up on subsequent restart of vehicle (2 time), the fuel level indicator finally read full.
The gas gauge is displaying inaccurate info. Even if I fill it to the top, it still displays either empty or half full. This is a safety issue.
Dt*: the contact stated while traveling various speeds, the airbag warning light remained illuminated after an occupant who weighed 115 pounds sat in the seat. The front passenger air bag would not deploy in the event of a crash when the air bag light was illuminated. On another occasion, an occupant who weighed 150 pounds sat in the passenger seat, and the air bag light remained illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who performed a diagnostic, and did not provide any error codes. The dealer and contact encountered a the federal safety agency recall #04v103000, regarding the air bags: frontal: sensor/control module.

The consumer stated it happened every 4000 miles since she has had the vehicle. It first happened in march of 2004. The dealership is telling the consumer that the brakes are heating up. The rotors have been resurfaced three times. They ordered new rotors and they have been on for approximately 3 months and the steering wheel is shaking again. She has also gone through two fuel injectors. She was told that she is putting low grade fuel into the vehicle. *jb other issues: the passenger side auto door would rattle when the vehicle was in motion, abnormal shifting, engine light had come on, rear wiper had broken, steering wheel would shake due to the brakes, the front left seat back was loose due to poor fit, mouding on the rear of the driver's seat was coming off, the fuel gauge was stuck on empty after two fill ups.
