Check out this website: www.nissanhelp.com
 
I believe there was a recall for this item last summer. The above website has a ton of information on Nissan and Infiniti vehicles.
 
But to echo what user7777 stated, get that looked at right away.

Does your Quest do this? (dtownfb) by eyeblind

Thank you for your comments. They echo my opinion on this matter. I couldn't have said it better myself.

I can take the sarcasm. just because honda does it one way, doesn't make it "right".
 
I wonder though, if we ask a toyota sienna owner, if it will be the same way.
 
from a human factors standpoint, i'm pretty comfortable with the operation as implemented in the honda.
 
now, it's too bad your manual doesn't describe proper operation.
 
if we were to check out other vehicles, do you think quest's implementation is "unique"?

I would not use the term "unique" just a different way of doing it. It accomplishes the same thing, the driver knows that passenger air bag is inactive. That is the important thing.
 
Sorry I an't comment on how Honda does it since I have no clue how they do it. As long as it gets the message across then it works.

I have a 2005 Honda Accord. The only difference is that the "Passenger Airbag" is a decal, but the "Off" glows full-time.

It's the standard wheel of the 2004 S model. I tried to tell the service manager that there may be a slow leak but he would not listen. He said they checked and everything was okay. I didn't used my car since after the arbitration hearing except of a 20 mile trip and it is now at least 9 PSI lower on the third indicator.
 
The arbitrator awarded me a "REPLACEMENT". I hope they find the problems on this car before they sell it to the new owner.
 
I'll surely miss the car but I just hated the many desperate times I spent bringing it to the repair shop, not counting my embarassments when it fails in front of other people. I just want a reliable van and it wasn't cheap.
 
I would say the driving experience was excellent but the reliability was very poor. It gives me doubt whether the safety system will work when needed. I hope I'll find a better car.

Leaky back by dbury
Apr 13, 2005 (5:56 am)
I bought my Quest last March and paid top dollor but wanted the whistle and bells but I stayed with the middle model and upgraded. During the winter I thought there was a strange smell but I have teens and one never knows. I keep the car tidy and clean. And rarely even use my back well area keeping it empty in case I wanted the seat down for whatever reason. The last time I had the car serviced around 16,000 miles I had some warranty issues that needed to be fixed. It was pouring down rain. Long story short I ran my hand over the back well carpet and it was soaked. Evidently there is good drainage in the back so smells didn't hang around and no mold you can see. But now I have a problem and probably had the problem from the beginning and didn't know it because I have a garage. Got someone who told the design of the van has problems because of the roof rack!
Meaning the manufacturer knows about this and is selling these vans as if there isn't. So I am curious if anyone else has a problem with water getting into the back well area. You should check while it is raining.

Hi dbury,
I have the exact same problem with my 20004SE. It went through several iterations of 'repairs', including replacing the sky view glass panels. That SEEMED to fix it, but when my wife recently made a 200 mile trip in a rain storm, she got home and there was nearly standing water in the well!
 
I have not taken it back since, as we are also garaged, and it is not normally a problem, but next time in for routine stuff, I will have them check it out again.
 
Very frustrating, because they have tried several times to fix it, but evidently they haven't. Please let the board know if you figure out a root cause through your dealer!
