NISSAN QUEST 1.0 I PAID, AND NEVER REIMBURSED, FOR THE CLEANING OF CARBONS DEPOSIT IN PART OF THE ENGINE CALLED THROTTLE-BODY ASSEMBLY IN NOVEMBER 05, 2003. MILEAGE: 57,934. REF.: SUPERIOR COURT FOR THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA FOR THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES - ROBERT MEYER VS NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC. CASE NO. BC 263136. 2.0 IN 2006 MY NISSAN QUEST STARTED HAVING PROBLEM TO HOLD THE IDLE SPEED AT 750 RPM AND THE ENGINE STOP EVERY TIME I AM WAITING AT THE TRAFFIC LIGHT. MILEAGE: 101,000. 3.0 THE NISSAN DEALER COULDN'T RESET THE IDLE SPEED AND STATED THAT TO FIX THE PROBLEM THEY HAVE TO CHARGE ME OVER $2,000 WITHOUT THE GUARANTEE THAT THE PROBLEM WILL BE FIXED. 4.0 I REQUEST THAT NISSAN NORTH AMERICA RECOGNIZES THAT THIS VEHICLE HAS A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM AND FIX MY VEHICLE WITHOUT CHARGE. *TR

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.

SINCE APRIL 7, 2003, I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN FOR A NOISE IN THE DRIVE SYSTEM. IT WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED AT THAT TIME HOWEVER, I HAVE SINCE BEEN BACK 6 ADDITIONAL TIMES TO FIX THE SAME PROBLEM BUT THEY CREATED NEW PROBLEMS. I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER THEY ORDER THAT THE CAR GET A NEW TUNE UP ALTHOUGH I HAD ONE IN NOVEMBER AT NO CHARGE TO ME. I HAVE HAD MY FUEL INJECTION WORK DONE 3 TIMES SINCE NOVEMBER. THE CAR IS STARTING TO ACT UP AGAIN WITH THE NOISE IN THE DRIVE SYSTEM AND AGAIN ACTING LIKE IT WANTS TO SHUT OFF. I HAVE HAD IT. PLEASE SEND GUIDANCE AS TO WHAT I COULD DO TO GET RID OF THIS LEMON.
