general problems of the 2012 Nissan Quest

Have fixed myself ac compressor kit about 97,051miles on 6/12/2020, maf sensor, two vvt solenoids having driven it 20,000 miles in five years trying to rid light. Nov 2019 purchased at 94,719 miles. Roberts Nissan of manchester, TN checked and serviced on 12/04/2019 at 95,186 milles in excellent condition. Light will not stay off for power train system, cam timing bank, timing chains, vct camshaft timing vct, power supply circuit. Nissan did replace recall abs actuator. Had checked cookeville Nissan 5/21/2024 light on and they turned off saying it checked ok after a cold start for $230. It is loud now at 114,998 miles! this auto must have defective parts since gateway has serviced it regularly. I am concerned about driving. Talked to consumer affairs of Nissan and was told it was over 65,000 miles and not valid.

Vehicle lost power multiple times while being driven. The alternator has been replaced three times last being 12/21. Battery has also been replaced. Vehicle has been to 2 mechanics. Potentially thought a/c compressor was causing problem. Replaced by mechanic number 2 may 2022. Vehicle runs until headlights are engaged, a/c or radio etc. Vehicle was driven 10 miles without radio, a/c or lights. Power drained within 2 miles of turning headlights on and cut out in traffic. Sputters and able to pull over without causing accident barely. Left stranded multiple times. Once on a major highway with traffic, stranded on side of road. Spouse rescued while waiting for tow truck. Multiple tows with major motor club. Catalytic converter light is active and was checked by tj's in loganville, GA, it did not need to be replaced at this time. Affordable auto services, mulberry road winder GA and b&b auto services, dacula GA (3 alternators and 2 batteries).

Traveling at a high speed of 75 vehicle without warning stalls can't give any gas. . . Will not restart to after it has sat for about 20 mins then it will start and stall out again. . Abs light and brake battery light keeps jumping on and off.

My brake system was flushed but my brake light and battery and abs light stays on flickering I was driving my vehicle at high speed and it it just stalls with no warning. . . I have to wait 20 mins or more before it'll start again. It has bn doing this for an entire year. . Driving full speed with no warning just shut down in middle of traffic.

Instumrnt panel goes blank, often stays off. Sometimes have to pull over to turn off vehicle and turn back in. Rarely works when this is done.

The lcd screen on the dash door keeps acting crazy like scrambling and it has now just gone completely black.

Tl the contact owns a 2012 Nissan Quest. While driving approximately 50 mph and slowing down in traffic, the accelerator pedal was depressed, but hesitated to respond. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer and manufacturer were not informed of the failure. The vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 12v076000 (electrical system, fuel system, gasoline). The approximate failure mileage was 42,000.

The van began to sputter and seemingly misfire once shifted into gear. I suspected a case of clogged fuel injectors and pressed firmly with the throttle to clear the line of debris. The van then stalled in the intersection as I was making a left turn, the transmission disengaged itself and provided no gear resistance. Fortunately the timing of oncoming traffic allowed me to coast out of the intersection, using the downward grade of a nearby alley in order to exit the street. Inspection of the van revealed obd ii codes: p0500 and p0720. Further investigation revealed an existing recall for automobiles of this make, model and year, that exhibit the events I have encountered. I believe that recall:12v076000 recall date 02/29/2012 should be expanded to include my VIN due to the similarity of events encountered as well as the hazard thereby created. I am fortunate to have made it through the intersection without getting t-boned. Below are reference quotes and links that further describe the experience and illustrate the identical circumstances that prompted the existing recall. . Read more...

Tl- the contact owns a 2012 Nissan Quest. The contact stated that while at a stop light, the vehicle stalled without warning, when coming to a decline. Once the contact reached the bottom of the decline they were able to shift the vehicle into neutral and was able to drive the vehicle as normal. The failure recurred three times. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 12v076000 (electrical system, fuel system, gasoline). The manufacturer was not called and made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000. Aw.

Though my vehicle was not subject to a recall I had the same issue as the other vehicles that had been recalled. With 40 miles left to go, according to my gauge, my vehicle stalled in traffic, on two different occasions, while turning left into gas stations. When I presented this issue to a dealer and to Nissan America I was told my vehicle was not subject to a recall, even though it was for the same problem and required the same repair as the recalled vehicles. I was charged over $300 for reprogramming my computer.

May 2014, I had a wet driver side a pillar that was leaking. Nissan attributed it to a defective sunroof with a crack. The headliner, subwoofer and amplifier were replaced. On July 10, 2015, I took my car to a flagship carwash. After my car was washed I noticed water on the right side of the rear sunroof and on the headliner in the rear of the vehicle on both the right and left sides of the car was wet in all the above noted locations. My radio also stopped working. Nissan had my car for five days and said they could not recreate the leak or determine what was wrong with the radio. They would not look at the radio as it was not under warranty. I took my car to a local radio repair shop and they discovered rust behind the panels in the rear of the vehicle, in the cargo area and 2 inches of water under my cargo area. Vehicle was purchased Feb 2013 new.

I was parked on a slope, with about 1/8 a tank of gas and the van would not start. I was able to start the vehicle after I put it in neutral and rolled it to level ground. I googled the problem and found out there was a recall, which I was never informed about. I took the van into the local Nissan shop and they performed the recall fix. When I asked why I wasn't notified of the recall, they said that my vehicle was manufactured after the dates covered by the recall, but it was obviously affected by the same issue (and that the dates in the recall must be "off"). The recall number is 12v076000, it covers vehicles manufactured between 7/29/2010 and 2/21/2012. My vehicle was manufactured on 2/23/2012, and has the same issue.

Car was parked on a parking lot on a very slight decline. Low fuel indicator just came on but distance to empty indicator still shows 50+ miles. Vehicle started at first but started to shudder and then engine died. Tried restarting a few times but it will just shut off right away. All electrical components were fine (radio, lights, etc). Had to put 2 gallons of gas to get it to start again. Drove to the gas station right away and filled it up with only 14. 5 gallons of tank. Manual says vehicle has 20 gallon fuel tank capacity. I was aware of the recall (campaign: 12v076000) but initially thought that my vehicle was not included since the campaign was back in March 2012 and I bought the vehicle in July 2012. Was later confirmed by Nissan consumer affairs and dealer service advisor that my car was indeed not included in the recall. However, car shows similar symptoms with same model cars that were recalled.
