The traction control system (tcs) of the vehicle has a manufacturer defect. While driving the vehicle suddenly slowed down and then shut down. The vehicle dragged and slipped from side to side. The problem is unique to Nissan, particularly Quest, but Nissan is not willing to fix it. The tcs light and the slip light came on and a sudden jack brought the vehicle to a halt. The "service engine soon" light came on though the car was serviced just the month before and we have not been using it because the fuel gauge and odometer were not displaying fully/properly. Nissan has a responsibility to replace the traction control system in the 2006 and earlier models of the Quest. The fuel gauge and odometer problem became a problem in Quest once the vehicle reaches 70,0000km/miles, and by then the warranty would have lapsed. Nissan fixed this manufacturer's problem in 2007 and as such the problem does not afflict models since 2007. My Quest starting exhibiting this problem when the odometer reached 71,000. Now the odometer and the fuel gauge no longer appear fully and it is very difficult to tell how much gas you have and you cannot read the mileage on the vehicle clearly. Nissan has an obligation and duty to fix the odometers and fuel gauge of the subsequent models.

Quest

  • 21,000 miles
Michelin pax system tires on a 2006 Nissan Quest SE. We have the Michelin pax tires on our minivan and they are constantly losing air, are very loud and stiff, and worst of all are very poor and dangerous in snow. We have not had good luck this past week maneuvering our minivan in any type of snow or on any slippery road surface. Our vehicle can not have any other type of tire because of the system that is installed from factory and we only have 21,000 miles on the van and need new tires which cost on unbelievable amount of money (over $1200) for replacement tires when they are still very new!!! no deaths or injuries yet and we hope there never are. However, we are not able to replace our tires every year for that cost and from some other people we have talked to at the tire stores and at the dealership, it sounds like we will have to get new tires about every 20-30K and that the tires do not handle well in snow or rain. Well, sounds unsafe to me! nor do they hold air very well so my little kids and I are always trying to get air in the tires at the local gas stations. Absurd! please help.
