I went to pick up a computer/ modem. I got home and picked it up out of the back seat, the side my automatic door is on. The corner of the modem hit the little open/shut button. It crushed both my arms between the door and modem I looked like I had been hit with a baseball bat on both of them. If it had been one of my children, it could have easily broken a arm/leg, and I don't want to even think about if their head got in it some way. The dealer told me there was nothing I could do for it, except complain to you all. So I am, I love my van, but I don't let my children get in the automatic door without supervision. Nissan Quest, azure blue, 2004.

Driver and passenger side doors would unexpectedly open and close on their own while the consumer was driving. The consumer drove the vehicle to the dealer for inspection and the mechanic was unable to duplicate the problem. The passenger side sliding doors did not reverse in direction when an object was encountered until that object was pushed to 4-6 inches of the door frame. (the button switch caused the door to close on people) the consumer was told that the door was working as designed.

There was also poor fuel economy (11.6 to 12.1 mpg instead of the normal 19-26 mpg). Also, within the first few weeks of ownership, the power sliding door on the right side opened independently on two occasions and failed to open or close on several occasions, there were problems with the control buttons, the radio text display on the dash read malfunction multiple times and sometimes it occured when the engine was started. There was a problem with the catalytic converter.

Rear and sliding doors have a recurrent rattle noise, taken to the dealer 4 times and still have problem, Nissan state that is a carateristic feature of vehicle, but I drove other van and did not notice the same problem, this is a lemon. They abuse or hide behind the "carateristic issue". I do not believe they can fix this problem.
