- Seats › Mid/rear assemblyCovers: Nissan Quest 2004–2005
Reported issue: On certain mini vans equipped with a folding third row rear seat, when the third row seat is raised from its stowed position, it engages striker brackets, one on each side of the seat cushion. The fold-away striker loop is welded to a mounting bracket. The striker may become detached from its mounting bracket due to a broken weld at the point of attachment to the bracket.
Possible consequence: If the third row seat striker weld fails, the striker could separate from the mounting bracket. Striker separation could affect the risk of injury in certain types of crashes.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the third row seat striker brackets free of charge. The recall began on december 19, 2005. Owners may contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
- Seats › Mid/rear assemblyCovers: Nissan Quest 2004–2006
Reported issue: On certain mini vans, there is a seat adjustment mechanism that contains exposed moving components located at the rear inside edge of the second row seat.

Remedy: On earlier model vehicles built through june 28, 2004, dealers will replace the inboard second row seat adjustment handle, rivet a plastic reinforcement to backside of the existing seat back cover carpeting, install tie-downs and a flange to the inboard side shield. On vehicles produced from june 29, 2004 through…
- Latches/locks/linkages › Doors › LatchCovers: Nissan Quest 2004
Reported issue: On certain minivans equipped with a power sliding door(s), at an ambient temperature below approximately 40 degrees fahrenheit, the actuator for the power sliding door(s) may experience binding due to an out-of-specification condition. In order to open, close or reverse a power sliding door, the shift selector lever must be in "park." if the actuator is experiencing binding and the driver shifts the vehicle out of…
Possible consequence: This can result in the door coming open unexpectedly upon rapid acceleration, and an occupant could fall out of the door and be injured.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the actuator for the power sliding door(s). Owner notification began on june 23, 2004. Owners should contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
- Air bags › Frontal › Sensor/control module-inactiveCovers: Nissan Quest 2004
Reported issue: Certain passenger vehicles fail to comply with the advanced air bag requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 208, "occupant crash protection." the air bag for the front passenger seat is to be turned off (so that it does not inflate) when certain occupants, such as small children, are in the front seat.
Possible consequence: This reduces the risk of such occupants being unjured by an inflating air bag in a collision.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the front passenger seat cushion/sensor assembly. If the seat cushion/sensor is found to be operating improperly, the seat will be removed and recalibrated. Owner notification began on june 23, 2004. Owners should contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
