Car vibrates badly while braking. Has been to dealer three times for problem but not fixed.
I have a 2004 Nissan Quest I have to replace the rotors about every 5,000 miles because they warp and cause the vehicle to shake when applying the brakes. This problem has also caused damage to the wheel bearings. It seems that the brake rotors are to small for the vehicle. I cant afford to keep replacing the rotors and brakes it is unsafe for me and my family. I contacted Nissan but they wont do anything, there are reports of this problem all over the internet.
The contact owns a 2004 Nissan Quest. The contact stated when driving at speeds of at least 55 mph and applying the brake, the vehicle would abnormally shake and vibrate violently. In addition, the vehicle was also pulling to the right. The vehicle was taken to the dealer at least 10 times and the dealer would only advise there were no failures in the vehicle. The dealer contributed the failure to the contacts manner of driving the vehicle. The brakes were replaced five times in an attempt to correct the failure but to no avail. The contact stated the brakes needed to be replaced again. The failure mileage was 40,330 and the current mileage was approximately 104,000.
: the contact stated there are multiple problems associated with the vehicle. First being, the brakes made a noise when applied. Second, while attempting to accelerate, the transmission remained in third gear. This would not allow the vehicle to accelerate properly, at any speed. Thirdly, the sliding door on the passenger's side opened while driving. The contact was able to close the door, although it took much force to do so. Lastly, the driver and passenger side vents had hot air flowing through them. The temperature gauges were adjusted; however the hot air still flowed. As a result, the air conditioner was turned on in order to maintain a comfortable temperature. The vehicle was taken to the dealer numerous times for inspection and solutions to these problems; however the problems could not be duplicated.
Had a crash in Nov 2005 at low speed (approximately 25 mph). The brakes seemed to simply not work. The brake pedal was pressed very hard and seemed like nothing was happening. I have had the brakes checked at every other service appointment and nothing seems to be obvious to the firestone mechanic. Also the tires skid a lot on even sandy streets. I dare not drive in snow with this elephant of a van. It gets stuck in snow on the slightest of inclines. My Nissan Quest se 2004 has had the privilege of holding up the traffic several times on the slightest incline in the road in snow. I am honestly very scared of driving in the snow. Today is the first day I have started exploring whether other people have had similar problems and found a number of them online. So I decided to do my part by sending this info in.
Braking on any downhill incline causes the vehicle to vibrate severely and the steering wheel to shake. Could cause loss of control.
While driving approximately 25 mph driver attempted to slow down by depressing the brake pedal, vehicle hit a curb and a light pole. Then, vehicle rolled over twice. Driver sustained minor cuts and bruises driver and was transported to the emergency room for treatment.
