| Involved in a low impact auto accident (probably less than 40 mph because air bags weren't even deployed, no injuries whatsoever sustained by myself and other driver, miniscule damage to other vehicle) in 11/01. immediately car was on fire which resulted in total loss of vehicle. alleging that the nissan quest is inherently unsafe due to poor frontal design of vehicle (see results of insurance institute for highway safety crash test results) - this is result of minivan catching fire so easily and rapidly. attempts to resolve matter with nissan ignored (asked for replacement of items lost in car/amt not covered by gap insurance, approx. $5000 total). now will seek recovery of funds via lawsuit. | |||

| The rear most passenger side window bracket gets in the way of the passenger side sliding door, effectively locking it closed. the door cannot be opened from the inside and someone on the outside needs to use a shim to push the bracket back into place to provide enough clearance for the door to open. | |||

| I have a 2001 nissan quest, since i received the vehicle from the dealer in march of 2001,the driver side sliding door kept jamming anywhere from 1 to 3 days at a time, and would unlock at times while i was driving, the passenger sliding door window would pop open when you closed the door. i finally took the auto to westbury nissan on 10/07/2002 regarding this problem while i was covered under the warranty,they charged me $23.70 for the repair of the passenger side sliding door window which worked for only two weeks and i finally taped the lock shut. now the drier side sliding door jammed again on 9/14/03 and this time the outside sliding door handle broke off in my hand. dealer wants $300. to repair. *jb | |||
