Power Steering Fluid Problems of Nissan Quest

The pressure power steering hose develops a terrible leak. Eventually required a 1/2 bottle of ps fluid nearly every day! the problem is that the hose is "buried" behind the engine and extremely difficult to replace. A replacement hose is less than $100 but it takes multiple hours of pain and frustration to replace. This type of poor workmanship is totally unacceptable. The fact that it's so difficult to fix a known problem is unconscionable. Nissan should be ashamed of themselves for taking advantage of consumers. The leaked caused steering issues on numerouse occasions. It never failed completely due to the fact that I carried a gallon jug of ps fluid with me everywhere I went. Now, not only did it take me forever to repair this item, my driveway is an eyesore. Power steering fluid is a very caustic product and does not clean up therefore it has destroyed my driveway. I¿m sorely disappointed.

I bought my Nissan Quest 2007 se in may of 2012. . From a dealer. . . After 2 months of owning my vehicle I started to notice that the front suspension would always rattle. . . Or fell like something was hiting. . So I took it back to the dealer and said it was the suspension so he sent me to his mechanic. . . . After about 2 days with out my vehicle. . . They called me to say everything was good . . . It did the same thing a few week later. . . . . At this time I noticed the the steering will was getting stiff so I had it checked the oil and yes it was a little low. . So I added power steering fluid. . . As I was headed to the highway at about 55 mph the steering wheel was so hard to turn to the right off highway lane. . . So I decided to turn back to town. . . . . I headed to the gas station as I pulled up to a pump it sounded like a burst and all the oil started leaking. . . I did have this part changed as the dealer again said they did not fix this problem. . . I had a mechanic change the so call part. . ,, but my minivan has not changed at all the power steering is the same . . . Having difficult steering,,. ,, its almost my 3rd year in may and I have not been able to know what the problem is. . . As I am still paying it off. . . . I had a friend tell me to file a report and as I dont know what else to do . . I did google and I have found other people say they have the some problem. . . Please let me know what else I can do or is this a manufacture problem. . .

I have had to change my headlights repeatedly (going on 3rd time) and my tail light (1 time). In addition, I have problems with my accelerator pedal; it seems to stick, until I apply enough pressure then it takes off abruptly fast, had these same problems (with replacing head and tail lights and accelerator) when I had my 1993 Nissan Quest, but dismissed them. Now I see a correlation with the 2000 Quest I have now. The low profile of my Quest caused my transmission pan to leak fluid, because of a dip in the road. Constant problems when parking due to the front end of my Quest being too low and scraping the curb. Problem with heating system in the rear, only blows out cold air regardless of setting it to heat. There is a very strong gas smell when my car is running (this was also experienced in my 1993 Quest) only compact incident was when my tranmission pan cracked going down the street and going down a dip in the road (not a pot hole). Other than these things I have been very pleased with my purchases, very reliable but these are a few things I've noticed and hope that you will consider my concerns to further be investigated.
