Overview & Reviews
Changes to the 2006 Nissan Quest mainly involve trim level and feature adjustments. A new 3.5 S Special Edition trim provides some of the Quest's premium features at a more affordable base price. For the existing trims, there's illumination for the steering wheel-mounted controls, available satellite radio capability and an enhanced front-row storage tray (SL and SE trims). Nissan has also made the rearview monitor standard on the SE and optional on the SL. Michelin PAX run-flat tires are now optional on the SL and SE.
- Flat-folding rear seats, head airbag protection for all three rows, smooth and powerful V6, innovative roof system.

My German Quest - 2006 Nissan Quest
By GrafBaby - September 9 - 12:23 pmI bought my Quest in Washington, and then we got stationed here to Germany (we are military). I used to hate vans, and never thought I would own one. But after looking at it, seeing that there is a 5 star crash rating, and all the little extras the Special Edition has, I bought it, and I have no regrets! I LOVE this van! I take it on the autobahn from time to time and I got up to about 120mph w/no problems. I love the strong horsepower, great for passing cars on these little German roads. This van is not sold here in Germany, so I get stared at by the Germans everywhere I go, and have gotten countless compliments. They are most amazed by the power lift gate.

Not what I thought it should be - 2006 Nissan Quest
By Minivan Mom - July 31 - 3:26 amWe bought our Quest for the room and outside design. The room is great and we enjoy all the bells and whistles, such as the DVD and radio, cd changer. We are not very happy with quality of the van. We have had the weather stripping replaced 2 times, the gas gauge shows empty sometimes after filling up, I actually was so embarrassed at the gas station when I went in to tell them that the pump must be broken, because there was no gas in my car, but the pump charged me. Come to find out it was the defect in the car that made it not register. It has done this several times since. We are now having problems with it spark knocking and losing power like it is running out of gas.

Ahead of Its Time - 2006 Nissan Quest
By Mike McGrath - June 28 - 10:13 amThis is a very nice van. My only complaints are that the liftgate were misaligned when I bought the vehicle, and the "service engine soon" light came on before 1,000 miles. I believe the bugs are worked out now. Before I bought this van, I test drove the Honda Oddesey and the Toyota Sienna. This van is roomier than either. It has much better second row head room than the Oddesey, and handles much better than the Sienna. The 3.5L engine gives it plenty of pep. I like center mounted instrument panel, which is easy to see, and the controls are right where I need them. I bought this for several thousand less than a Honda or Toyota. Great job, Nissan!

Quest is superb! - 2006 Nissan Quest
By Garey - June 8 - 9:30 amThe 25-26 mpg has been far exceeded, curently getting 28-30 mpg on the highway far exceeding the manufacturers stated numbers. Feels much safer than the previous Quest, 2002 we traded in for this one. Far superior craftmanship - much more solid vehicle than previous years.

Mixed Review - 2006 Nissan Quest
By cbnbuilder - December 23 - 6:40 pmWe have owned our 2006 Quest for 2-1/2 years. It has 61,000 miles. All recommended service performed by Dealer. Although the van has been reliable till recently, the transmission went out two weeks ago (1,000 miles outside the warranty period). After much (too much) debate and pleading, Nissan covered the repair ($4100). When we picked the van up from our dealer, the windshield was busted... were still debating their responsibility. I find the seats to be very roomy but uncomfortable. Front seat feels like you are sliding out of them toward the steering wheel, makes you kind of hold on to wheel to brace yourself all the time. Original Goodyear tires were noisy and wore poorly.

Never Thought I would Buy a Van - 2006 Nissan Quest
By M.J. RAINES - July 25 - 12:10 amI have driven other vans at work;however, when I test drove this van I was impressed. I had my heart set on a Maxima but the wife quickly changed that. We ended up buying this van and I have no regrets. I live in an area where its HOT. This van handles the climate well. I took the van out of town and was surprised with both the gas mileage and performance. I have taken my radar detector out of storage and now use it in this van. The only complaint I have is the interior controls seem cheap. Nissan should look into better quality parts.

BEWARE!! 10 RECALLS Already! - 2006 Nissan Quest
By Mindy McNicholas - July 16 - 4:30 pmOur experience with Nissan and its main headquarters has been very poor. Our new Quest has been in the shop 17 times since we purchased it in October of 2005. (We own a 2006 Nissan Quest.) The mileage is very poor. It averages 15-18 mpg (half of the driving is highway!). Nissan has yet to fix all of the problems (rattling door, 10 recalls, broken automatic door, drivers seat loose, sound on the radio doesnt work when it rains...etc.) Beware of Nissans new tactic of not keeping parts in stock. This is how they save money. You can wait weeks before a part comes in and you have time to get it serviced. Nissan took the fun out of buying a new vehicle :(

I love my nissan - 2006 Nissan Quest
By mother of five - February 22 - 11:56 pmI love this vehicle. It is comfortable on road trips, gets great gas mileage, and is the hottest minivan on the road in looks. I am sold on this van and will own another after this.

Fantastic Purchase - 2006 Nissan Quest
By CmdrScotie - September 30 - 8:20 pmBought new in 06, and used it for errands and cross country trips. Plenty of room for the whole family (4 of us) with luggage. Ive taken care of this van the way a vehicle is supposed to be taken care of, and have had no problems.
