2001 Nissan Quest SE 4dr Minivan (3.3L 6cyl 4A)
Review
I bought this car new as I thought it would last a long time. The engine and transmission are mechanically sound, but I have replaced the drive shafts twice. The side window latches do stick. I have had work done on the power windows. I do plan on keeping this car for another few years. The VCR screen did break after 4 years.
Favorite Features
Style, cargo space.
Suggested Improvements
Side window latches, window tracks.
reliable family vehicle

Very reliable, only problem was VCR & it was under warranty. Very comfortable on long trips, video and lots of power outlets for kids stuff is great. 19 mpg in town.
Favorite Features
Video & outlets great for travel.
Suggested Improvements
Needed more power, new Quest fixed that. 21 mpg highway could also be better. some paint issues on the plastic.
Great reliable car

Have not had any mechanical problems with this car. It runs quiet and the paint job is very good no rust. The kids love the Audio center. I am buying a new Nissan Van.

Review
This has been a very reliable vehicle for my family. I've had very few problems with it. Most problems has been in the door locks or hardware.
Favorite Features
Very comfortable. When friends get together for an event they always want me to drive because I can fit 6 adults comfortably.
Suggested Improvements
Door actuators and hardware need upgrade - they are not reliable!
Lovely, but too small for family!

2001 Nissan Quest GLE 4dr Minivan (3.3L 6cyl 4A)
Review
This vehicle is smooth to drive, has decent pickup speed, handles well, and has every bell and whistle you can imagine - the sunroof is a nice touch! But the interior is very small, with very little leg and head room. The cargo area is equally lacking - and for a family of five, it's a tight fit for a long drive. Overall, an excellent choice for a small family or adults who just want a few extra seats available - but not for larger families who do a lot of traveling.
Favorite Features
Sunroof! How fun is that on a mini- van? The sound system, while a little complicated to operate while driving, is high quality and the vehicle barely notices speed bumps.
Suggested Improvements
More interior space, more cargo space. There's nowhere to put anything on the floor. Purses, backpacks, etc, have to be shoved between seats or in the back. The cup holders in the front don't always stay locked, either, and they're kind of flimsy.

Review
Considering the year of the vehicle, it has all the amenties I would wish for and the reliablity I would expect of a Nissan. Not bad looking for a minivan, the door handles are not the usual and still functional.
Favorite Features
2nd row captain's chairs- my two boys are now seperated!
Suggested Improvements
The have already done them with the new Quest- foldaway 2nd and third rows rather than the heavy removal system for the 2001. The stock tires were not so terrific and have found the company did a recall on a similar model. We found this was a common complaint.

Review
This is our second Quest, the first being a 1997. It responds and handles well on turns with decent power for a mini van. We love the versality. Everything fits from luggage to a full- size recliner. Our grandkids love the video system. Only complaint is one of the side door windows occasionally becomes unlocked. Very reliable. Highly recommended over the Toyoya or Honda mini's.
Favorite Features
Video entertainment system, 16" alloy wheels complimenting the sporty look, rear a/c controls, extra 12 volt d/c connectors, driver side seat "memory settings
Suggested Improvements
More room for rear seating

2001 Nissan Quest GLE 4dr Minivan (3.3L 6cyl 4A)
Review
Fully loaded GLE with 3.3L V-6, leather and burlwood trim interior, plus 6-CD changer w/upgraded sound system, VCR (should a been DVD), power everything, with driver seat memory, and other stuff too numerous to mention. City mileage improved considerably from ~15 mpg to ~20 mpg after about a year. Electronic mileage fuel calculator is a joke, not even accurate. No major issues thus far -- knock on burlwood. Warranty will expire in a couple months and I have seen a few service advisories I would like to get checked, such as side-window latches that loosen, noises from rear suspension, seat belt recall. No issues regarding tire quality.
Favorite Features
Nice having outside temp gauge, audio controls on steering wheel, and a built-in compass on rear-view mirror (sometimes it's handy to know exactly which direction one is traveling). The removable and adjustable rear seating that accomodates varying needs from time-to-time is advantageous.
Suggested Improvements
Swap speedo & tach positions for better speedo visibility. Better formed and cushier front seats, with better seat belt attachment placement. Illuminated stereo controls on steering wheel.
OK but still not a Honda

Handles good for a van. Radio sound good. Seating is comfortable.

Better performance (more hp). More interior room. Rear seating only for children/ small adults.
