Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Sliding door(s). While reviewing others complaints of the Nissan Quest, I found I was not alone with the manual sliding doors. The driver side manual sliding door gets stuck randomly, and one must pull on it so hard (to get it open), that one is fearful of the handle breaking off. This issue is not as bad on the passenger side as it is the driver's side.”

NHTSA complaint #10672958, filed 2015-01, 50,000 miles

“Both passenger side window have a rattling noise. I bring in the dealer several times. However, every time it getting worse. This is in 2009. Finally, just give up on this. Nissan refuse to replace with another vehicle even though it was within 30 days of purchase. The dealer ship and Nissan company were very difficult to deal with. You get the run around each time you visit.”

NHTSA complaint #10629507, filed 2014-08, 20 miles
