Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 NISSAN QUEST. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED TO VIBRATE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A TIRE CENTER WHERE THE TIRES WERE ROTATED AND AN ALIGNMENT WAS PERFORMED. HOWEVER, THE REMEDY FAILED TO REPAIR THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 127,000.
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. CONSTANT PROBLEMS WHEN PARKING DUE TO THE FRONT END OF MY QUEST BEING TOO LOW AND SCRAPING THE CURB. PROBLEM WITH HEATING SYSTEM IN THE REAR, ONLY BLOWS OUT COLD AIR REGARDLESS OF SETTING IT TO HEAT. THERE IS A VERY STRONG GAS SMELL WHEN MY CAR IS RUNNING (THIS WAS ALSO EXPERIENCED IN MY 1993 QUEST) ONLY COMPACT INCIDENT WAS WHEN MY TRANMISSION PAN CRACKED GOING DOWN THE STREET AND GOING DOWN A DIP IN THE ROAD (NOT A POT HOLE). OTHER THAN THESE THINGS I HAVE BEEN VERY PLEASED WITH MY PURCHASES, VERY RELIABLE BUT THESE ARE A FEW THINGS I'VE NOTICED AND HOPE THAT YOU WILL CONSIDER MY CONCERNS TO FURTHER BE INVESTIGATED.
CONSUMER STATES WHEN PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL THERE IS A MAJOR DELAY IN ACCELERATION. CONSUMER STATES CAR WILL SUDDENLY LURCH FORWARD. NLM CONSUMER ALSO STATES BRAKE PEDAL SQUEAKS, THE STEERING WHEEL WHINES AND THE FRONT DRINK CUP HOLDER WOULD NOT WORK. *YH
WHEN MAKING A LEFT OR RIGHT TURN A LOUD NOISE COMES FROM STEERING ASSEMBLY, CAUSE UNKNOWN. PLEASE GIVE ANY FURTHER DETAILS. *AK
