1994 Nissan Quest Visibility Problems

Owner-reported complaints naming the visibility system, filed with NHTSA

Data refreshed

Visibility reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

I OWN AN 94 NISSAN QUEST MINIVAN. THE POWER DOOR LOCK KEEP LOCKING BY ITSELF INTERMITTENTLY (WHEN THE VAN IS RUNNING, OR WHEN THE THE DOOR IS CLOSING, OR WHEN THE I TOUCH THE DOOR HANDLE TO OPEN, OR WHEN I TURN THE KEY TO UNLOCK/OPEN THE DOOR.)I'D BEEN COMPLAINED THIS TO NISSAN CORPORATION, NISSAN DEALERS SINCE 1995. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO VARIOUS DEALERS FOR REPAIR ON ADVICE FROM NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS OFFICE (1-800-NISSAN-1) AND WASTED SO MUCH OF MY TIME JUST TO SIT ALL DAYS WAITING FOR THE FAMILIAR RESULTS: CAN NOT DUPLICATE; CAN NOT FIX. EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR LOCK BY ITSELF IN FRONT OF THE SERVICE MANAGERS. THEY ARGUMENTS: IT MUST LOCKS ITSELF IN FRONT OF THE MECHANICS AND MUST DOES IT EVERY TIME ( I NOT ALLOWED IN MECHANIC'S AREA.) FINALLY, AFTER SPENT SO MUCH OF MY TIME IN VARIOUS DEALER'S SERVICE WAITING ROOMS, A DEALER FIXED IT IN LATE 1997 WITH I PAY $50.00 COPAY BECAUSE "OUT OF WARRANTY PERIOD". NOW THE PROBLEM IS BACK, THE POWER DOOR KEEP ACTIVATING ON IT OWN. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE SAME DEALER AND THEY REFUSED TO SERVICE IT WITH THE SAME ARGUMENT AS BEFORE: CAN NOT DUPLICATE, CAN NOT FIX.I HAVE A GOLD EXTENDED WARRANTY ISSUED BY NISSAN CORPORATION FOR SEVEN (7) YEARS COVER BUMPER TO BUMPER (1994-2000). IT SEEMED AS JUST IS A PIECE OF WORTHLESS PAPER! IT COVERS NOTHING AND ENFORCES NOTHING. IN ADDITION TO THE INJURY, NISSAN CORPORATION'S CONSUMER AFFAIRS TOLD ME THAT THE WARRANTY SERVICE IS THE DEALERS RESPONSIBILITY NOT NISSAN. I AM REALLY FRUSTRATED. ARE THERE ANY THING ELSE THAT I CAN DO TO GET THIS FIX???HELP.THANK YOU VERY MUCH. MY EMAIL: [email protected]
