Replying to: vinhphuc (Apr 22, 2005 8:19 am) Do you mean, will it deploy, or not? It will, but if she has her seat belt tight it won't matter becaue it won't touch her anyway. From racing I got in the habit of pulling my seatbelt tight across my pelvis, moving clothing layers out of the way as necessary. In 1995 I was hit head on by a drunk driver (at 12:30 on a Monday afternoon - so beware), both cars travelling around 30 mph. Both airbags deployed, but the one in the steering wheel never touched me because the belt held me in place. Of course, because those wonderful safety devices called airbags deployed, and ripped the dashboard in the process, his insurance company had to pay an extra $2,300, with absolutely no benefit to me.

Replying to: ord62 (Apr 12, 2005 11:07 am)  I am currious is the only reason that you were awarded a replacement was because of the tire?? Did you have any other problems? I have had more problems with it then I can even count on my fingers and toes..... No joking. I went to BBB and was declined of an award of replacement or lemon. Now I am still fighting Nissan. As we speak it is back in the garage again and has been there for a week for a noise that they have no idea what it is.

Replying to: samuelg (Feb 20, 2005 7:39 pm) I have the exact same problem that you are referring to. This problem, as well as a braking vibration, surfaced two days after purchasing this vehicle new in June of 2004. Nissan has performed Rack Adjustments, Radial Force & Hunter Balances, Tire Rotations, Rotor Replacement (Aug 2004) and Cutting the Replacement Rotors due to Warp (April 2005). I am currently at 14,000 miles and ten months of ownership, and this driveline front end vibration problem has improved by 50% at best. My additional braking vibration has never improved for longer than a few days. I am considering, due to the results of an independent inspection performed on the Goodyear LS2 tires on my Quest, purchasing a comparably sized tire from a different manufacturer with the hope of acheiving some improvement. I viewed my tires on a Hunter Balancing Machine, and all four tires were slightly out of round. Insufficiently out of round to fail a Radial Force Balance and warrant replacemnt by Nissan, but sufficient to create a moderate high speed vibration. It will not be an easy task to replace these tires because this tire size is unique to the Nissan Quest 3.5S and 3.5SL Models (225/65R 16). This is the only tire on the market at this size, that I have been able to locate. The 215/70R 16 (an option with the use of the OEM wheels) or the 235/60R 16 (an option with upgrading from a 6.5" depth rim to a 7.5" depth rim). Just a few thoughts and ideas. Hopefully some of it is helpful to you. |
