Can I ask where you go to look at TSBs from NISSAN?

A/C TROUBLE by hassani
Aug 27, 2006 (12:23 pm)
Does anyone here has any complains about their air conditioners. I have an 06 SL with about 2000 miles on it and the a/c doesnt blow cold air, its just a little bit cooler and that is on a nice 80 degree day. Even when I keep it at MAX A/C, which basically stops the air intake into the cabin, I still feel like there is hot air blowing into the cabin from somewhere.

It may sound obvious…but make sure the rear seat temp is not set to HOT…my wife did this once…It was 90 outside and I had the AC running…it seemed to take really long to cool when I noticed my wife had the rear on HIGH heat and full fan...she also likes to fiddle with the climate control…always; I say, just click “Auto” and all will be well…oh well…

I just wanted to post information as to where you can also file complaints regarding issues with your vehicle.
 
Federal Trade Commission regarding issues of unfair business practices etc... I filed on on Quest Tires... http://www.ftc.gov/ftc/consumer.htm
 
Better Business Bureau Auto Line - It has worked for me to get reimbursed for brake repaires. http://www.dr.bbb.org/autoline/
 
National Highway Transportation Safety Administration - investigations into vehicle defects - http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/problems/complain/
 
While it might not do you a lot of good if enough people file complaints it could put pressure on manufacturers to address issues!

I wish it was that obvious, something I overlooked. But the thing is the coolness of the air that the a/c is blowing. I dont know how else to put it. I have a 2001 Infiniti and when you turn the air on its throwing like freezing air at you, the quest doesnt. One more reason why I dont like the quest, should have gone with what I wanted (the Odyssey) rather than what the wife wanted (the Quest)

Check this site, and click on "body structure doors"
 
I am not sure if thsi will help. If not, GOOGLE Nissan Quest TSBs and see if you can come up with something.
I will try to find the site I used before and send it later if I find it.

I could not find the full TSB on line, but call your dealer and ask for TSB#03080B and see if you can get a copy.
You might ask him if he adjusted your doors by this TSB. I believe this is the one you are looking for. Let us know how you make out on this problem.

There was a TSB on the 2004 Quests. But I thought it was corrected for 2005.
 
This will sound weird but try your AC on the bi-level setting and see how that works. And turn off the rear AC. I had issues with my AC during the first year and the past two summers the AC has been excellent. I'm not sure if the dealer did something during one of the service visits but no complaints anymore. Actually kids complain about it being too cold.
 
If the obvious things do not work, take it to the dealer to get it checked.

I had an '04 SL and had the same complaint since taking delivery in August of '03. Not only did the A/C not cool well, but warm air dumped out of the floor vents onto my feet constantly, even when the vents were off. There's a TSB about this and they did it, but it still sucked.
 
Recently I traded it for an '06 SE, and things couldn't be more different. I don't know if the SE is a "Wednesday" car or if there was a running engineering change or what, but this A/C gets things cold and keeps them cold. No complaints so far, and it's been blast-furnace hot in my area.
 
My suspicion on the '04 is that there was a valve somewhere for the heater core that wasn't properly shutting off, so I was getting heat all the time. But the dealers either wouldn't or couldn't verify.
 
I recently picked up a copy of the service manual, so I might have a look to see if anything sounds plausible, but I'm not touching the '06 since it works.
