While driving on highway the van started to shake while applying the brake and then there was no power as the gas was pressed. The gas was to the floor and the max speed was 50 mph. The more you drove the worst it got. I am only talking driving approximately 15-20 mile. When you first start out it is not as bad, but it is absolutely not safe to drive nor am I willing to drive it anymore. I have read articles on this and it certainly seems like a common problem. Lets get it together Nissan!!!!! I really want to know if going import is worth it. I have a 2001 GMC with over 175,000 with no problems.
The contact owns a 2006 Nissan Quest. While driving approximately 55 mph the traction control, abs and slip warning lights illuminated on the instrument panel. There was also a vibration coming from the front end of the vehicle. After stopping and restarting the vehicle, the warning lights shut off. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic for diagnostics. The mechanic stated that the actuator pump would have to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 75,000.
My Quest was purchased 12/06. Since then the odometer has malfunctioned. They would not fix it. The brake disc have malfunctioned twice, even after Nissan replaced them. The response from Nissan was "hotspots happen normally in discbrakes". The motor mounts went bad after 2. 5 years. Now I am faced, after a little more than 4 years with "power steering pump" replacement and "rack and pinion assembly.
