“Back on july as I was on the hwy, set my cruise control, for the first time since I've owned my Nissan, at 55mph, the speedometer stopped working, my right headlight went out. Now ever since then, it has gotten worse, I have replaced the right headlight 3 times . I've noticed that when I grab the handle of the turn signal it crackles, and causes the headlights to flicker, and the odometer doesn't work when the speed control is on zero while driving.”

“The speedometer jumps up and down while the car is in motion. Occasionally, the speedometer stops working completely. We have complained about this before times and now the dealership says that we need to replace the speedometer assembly including cable. I was informed that it is on a nationwide back order and there are several at this dealership awaiting the same fix. Is there anything anyone can do to look into the numerous electrical and mechanical issues this vehicle seems to be experiencing?”

NHTSA complaint #10050580, filed 2003-12, 48,000 miles

“I have had to change my headlights repeatedly (going on 3rd time) and my tail light (1 time). In addition, I have problems with my accelerator pedal; it seems to stick, until I apply enough pressure then it takes off abruptly fast, had these same problems (with replacing head and tail lights and accelerator) when I had my 1993 Nissan Quest, but dismissed them. Now I see a correlation with the 2000 Quest I have now. The low profile of my Quest caused my transmission pan to leak fluid, because of a dip in the road. …”
