| We have a 2004 Quest which has experienced several common problems discussed on this site (and about which I have posted before). Fortunately it hasn't caused us too many problems lately (knock on wood), but we just went over the 35,000 mile mark (in less than 2.5 yrs) and I'm worried something major is on the horizon. I've seen several posts here which mentioned Nissan extending the warranty on all 2004 Quests to 5-yr, 60,000 mi. Is this true, and if so where can I find out about this? If it is true I'm sure my dealer would be aware of it if I needed service, but they're not above claiming ignorance and forcing me to prove it. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks. | |

I have 04 SL, and its MPG has been always around 18 to 19. Recently I had a trip from New York to Niagara Falls, and drove highway around 70MPH with premium gas (93), and still got only 19.9. I usually have 3 people in the car. Does anybody has same kind of problem, getting MPG of only 18 to 19?

Replying to: dtownfb (Sep 06, 2006 7:42 am) A few months before I had checked on it with Nissan and they said it was covered under the extended warranty for 60,000 miles and I had them send me a letter stating that and thus I showed it to the dealer... What's up with that? Didn't they up the warranty on all 2004 Quest's?

I know I've posed on this before but I have more questions... I just took in my 2004 Quest to a dealer again for steering wheel shake while driving and even more shake while braking. Best guess on the braking is that rotors are warped again, not sure if that's the problem with the steering shake. I have brand new Goodyear 225/65/16 tires on it, balanced twice already. However, the problem while braking must be rotors. If I lightly apply the brakes I can see the steering wheel shake back and forth, left to right. If I press hard on the brakes it's not doing it, my guess the rotors are not warped enough yet to give shake during hard braking? While under warranty, I'm trying to get Nissan to address the problem rather than try other brand pads and rotors which some have suggested. Are there actually 2004 Nissan Quest owners who are not having this problem with the brakes? Rotors have been turned 4 times and pads replaced twice, now at 38,000 miles with the problems beginning at 29,000 miles although when I first purchased the vehicle, in the first few thousand miles they had to turn the rotors. I went from several thousand miles 20,000+ miles before I think that I recognized the problem again. I'm not sure how it lasted that long and now I can't get more than a few thousand miles out of the brakes before it shows up again? It looks like to me a basic design problem in the brakes so how can they really fix it without a redesign? So why are not more Quest owners complaining or are they just living with the problem or do I have a lemon? ... Gary |
