After 27,000 miles - 2004 Nissan Quest
By chris - February 1 - 11:56 pmProblems with door rattles have been made acceptable certainly not a complete fix. Do not like "searching" shifts with cruise control - will not maintain speed on hills except with abrupt shift to 3rd and will return to 4th requiring a reset. Mileage on recent 7000 mile trip (plains and mountains) was 25 with 28 as a high (70 to 75 mph). Goodyear Eagle LS tires are terrible, one separating at 27K -- there are very few choices for replacement; I plan on going to a 235/55 size.

love my minivan! - 2004 Nissan Quest
By Ann - January 22 - 2:46 amI love my minivan! Even though my kids are older now and have their own cars, I still cannot think of getting a different/new car! Everyone who rides in my van, thinks we are in spaceship :) The interior room is incredible. The back seating has unbelievable space. My 62" son has no problem with his leg space in the back. The heated seats are great in the winter! I have only replaced standard things (brakes, struts,tires, etc) and have over 80,000 miles. Cannot even think of trading this van yet! Great for taking my kids to college too! The power of this car is great on acceleration.

Look for another van - 2004 Nissan Quest
By logan19 - January 19 - 12:30 pmWe got this van because it didnt look like your typical minivan. I should have done more research. First of all I have had to replace both sets of brakes twice with only 52,000 miles. My mechanic told me that they would have to be replaced every 20,000 miles. The van is very heavy. After needing new tires, I found out that Goodyear is the only one who makes this size tire. So I had to buy them. The tire pressure indicator goes off when the outside temp drops below 70 degrees. The dealer tells me there is nothing wrong with it and just resets it. So I am in there within a week doing the same thing. I will never know when I flat tire. I am now looking at the Hondas.

Sleeping winner - 2004 Nissan Quest
By drajsc - January 15 - 2:00 amThe engine is more powerful than I thought-test drove both the Sienna and the Quest beat hands down. The 2nd &3rd row fold into floor seats are easy to use --the interior space is bigger than I thought and surprisingly fit several big boxes of furniture(even the salesperson was shocked that they were all able to fit). Drove well on icy roads and barely slipped (compared with my old Chrysler T & C). Drove down to Florida with 4 kids and everyone was happy -- 2 screen DVD kept kids happy,centrally placed controls and gauges are so convenient and makes it easy to monitor speed and fuel tank.

Not Your Average Minivan - 2004 Nissan Quest
By mtfbwy - January 10 - 10:00 amWe looked at the Honda Odyssey and Toyota Sienna but picked the Nissan Quest because it seemed like a better value overall. Car magazines rate it below the former two vans but we actually LIKE the interior and exteriror styling. The Hondas interior seems like it was plucked from an Oldsmobile and the Toyotas is a nice compromise. The engine has a throaty exhaust growl and gets great highway mileage while still having a ton of low end torque. The second row fold down seats are also a plus. We got alot more equipment for the money with the Quest as well. Dont overlook this van because of the reviews.

Poorly Enginneered AC Lines - 2004 Nissan Quest
By Joe 2 - January 10 - 10:00 amMy Quest with only 3000 miles on it has already lost the air conditioning. The freon lines that run to the rear evaporator are routed so close to the stabilizer bar, that a hole was rubbed through the AC line, resulting in a loss of all the freon. According to Nissan, the line can only be obtained from Japan and will require pulling the engine to replace it. It has now been 30 days with no ETA for replacement parts. I can not recommend this vehicle to anyone until a recall is made for rerouting the rear AC lines is performed. The dealer shop mechanics could not believe the poor design and the neccessity to pull the engine for repairs.

INCREDIBLE - 2004 Nissan Quest
By qudam - December 15 - 10:00 amI TEST DROVE MOST OF THE AVAILABLE MINIVANS IN THE MARKET AND CONCLUDED THAT THE NEW QUEST IS HEAD AND SHOULDERS ABOVE THE REST. ITS FUN TO DRIVE AND WITH SO MANY CAREFULLY THOUGHT UTILITY FEATURES, MY LITTLE DAUGHTER CALLS IT HER SECOND HOME. THANKS GOD THAT I DIDNT COMMIT THE BLUNDER OF GETTING AN ODESSEY AND TOOK TIME TO TEST DRIVE MY QUEST.

Bad Experiences - 2004 Nissan Quest
By ORD - December 8 - 10:03 pmIve had in the shop so many times with the following problems: - 3 times in shop on "Service Engine Soon" light came up - two or 3 times in shop with steering problems - three times in shop for intermittent power window locking up problem - one time with SRS (Air- bag) lamp on - Door rattles even after the Nissan Recall Initiative - 2 times Interior Dome lights problems - Heater outlet behind first row seats can only be control from front and no heat comes out of ceiling vent - Computer Tire monitor keeps telling flat tire during cold weather - etc. Nissan wont accept responsibility or replace vehicle. Will involve BBB, next News media, and then lawyers. Trip to Disneyworld had 4 problems.

If you have to drive a minivan... - 2004 Nissan Quest
By Cincinnati - December 4 - 5:26 amThe hipster parents minivan. Its fast, solid, safe and doesnt look like a refrigerator like all the other minivans. The Quest has been drop-dead reliable - never an issue, though I welcomed it when Nissan extended the factory warranty to 6 full years. Do replace the stock Goodyears though - those were terrible in the rain and wore quickly. The funky dash works better than the new version since the speedometer is closer to the windshield. With the new dash you have to drop your vision to below the top of the steering wheel like on every other van. The Bose stereo is outstanding and the huge side door makes loading toddlers a breeze.

Nice Looking but Poor Quality - 2004 Nissan Quest
By bdunk - December 3 - 4:03 pmThe quality of this car is horrible. Sliding doors rattle constantly. The car has been to the dealership for numerous recalls and fixes (at least 2 weeks). The dealer offered a "Spam Can" (Nissan Sentra)as lender while car was being fixed and this is unacceptable. I will never buy a Nissan again. The extended warranty that was recently appended to this lemon of a car was nice but I would rather buy a Honda Odysey or Toyota Sienna and I would suggest you test drive each before making a final decision. In addition, dont be fooled by the posted Fuel Economy Rating (20+). Im averaging 15mpg.
