The worst initial quality on the market - 2005 Nissan Quest
By Ryan - May 10 - 12:16 pmI purchased a 2004 Quest in March of 04. I have been disappointed ever since. In the 11 months that I have owned the vehicle, I have accumulated a total of 23 quality problems that need to be addressed by the dealer. Nissan has issued a quality recall for most 04 quests, which included items from poor insulation to replacing trottle pedals. I have experienced loss of power at stop lights, seat belt latches that stick, audio buttons that dont function, Driver door that is loose and tries to pry open at highway speeds. If your money and safety are important to you, I would seriously consider another vehicle. Nissan rushed this car to the market and it shows in every way.

This van is a piece of junk - 2005 Nissan Quest
By kn - November 26 - 10:03 amThis van looks nice and thats about it. Our problems began at 4,000 miles and now were at 45,000 and the problems have not ended. The van is in the shop every 4-6 mos. Exhaust bracket broken several times, 3 sets of brakes, 2 sets of rotors, header pipe, parking brake assembly replaced x 2 and tightened x 4, catalytic converter replaced, battery x 2. Nissan has had terrible customer service, even at corporate office. Customer service is not their #1 if you have a problem, only when youre there for routine maintenance.

What a disappointment - 2005 Nissan Quest
By sstlaurent - October 12 - 2:10 amWe bought this van new, and over the last three years, weve put more around $5000 into. The digital dashboard display hasnt been clear for years. The heater in the back of the van doesnt blow. Now the transmission is failing, and were looking for another car. Weve had it serviced regularly and taken care of it, so I dont know what the problem is. If I want to take it to the dealership, they charge $98 just to diagnose it. The transmission guy told me that lots of people have had the same problem, and attorneys are preparing to file a class action suit.

Absolutely hated it! - 2005 Nissan Quest
By Twinmom143 - December 14 - 3:30 pmI owned a 2001 Quest for years and drove it to over 130,000 mi before trading it in for this. Biggest mistake I ever made! I loved the old Quest. The newer one is spacious, but the blind spots when driving it were terrible. It didnt matter where I moved to, I just couldnt see well at all. Almost immediate muffler noises and front end noise. The front brakes go often in these vehicles because they are SO heavy and the brakes cant handle the size of the vehicle. Terrible gas mileage. Nice options, but not worth it. I didnt keep it 6 months! I started looking for something else 2 weeks after getting home with this one!

Needs work - 2005 Nissan Quest
By EW - July 24 - 9:46 amNissan needs to work on quality control for the Quest. Ours has developed rattles everywere, skyview window leaks, and the right side sliding door is sticky just to name a few. The dealer has attempted to fix most of our complaints, and Nissan did extend the warranty to 5 years/60K for free, but for a van this pricey it should not have the problems it does The engine and transmission combo are a plus. The trans does tend to annoyingly hunt between gears at 20 mph.

Total junk - 2005 Nissan Quest
By rfw - April 11 - 1:00 amTraded this thing off after less than 2 years. Ill summarize: Airbag recall (took 2 trips and still didnt operate correctly); burned-out tailight; interior map lights and overhead A/C vents constantly fall out; high-speed shimmy that cant be fixed; rear & side doors squeak and rattle; window motor burned out; oxygen sensor went out; A/C wont shut off sometimes; DVD player went out, and the final straw: the transmission hung in 2nd gear until I restarted it. Run away, if you even get close to one.

My new Nissan Quest - 2005 Nissan Quest
By My Nissan Quest - January 21 - 5:03 amThe Nissan Quest van beats its competitors with its bold design and features, but there are some quality issues which Nissan needs to address, like the Rattle sounds in the doors. The console even though looks very impressive, very hard to locate and operate the buttons. Overall this is a good van for the price

Good and Bad - 2005 Nissan Quest
By JackInFla - May 13 - 4:10 pmBad; Very thin exterior sheet metal. Brake pads and rotors only good for 15K. Atleast 3 recalls,leaks in passenger door, moon roof. Second row seats even w/ extra charge are NOT fold flat. Front seats are very uncomfortable, feels like plywood. Gas milage is 9 mpg worse than my 98 Vette. Hate the varible steering while parking. Should have indicator of what lights are on or off and lights should go on auto. when wipers are on. Good; Great space, am-fm above par with speed variable volume, separate a/c and heat in back great. Heated front seats good and motorized side and back doors are well worth it.
