Love hate relationship!

Review

I got this van for more room when I had my second child. Not that I have 3 things are starting to look "gray"! I love the seats and actually think they are comfortable except the third row is not made for adults or more than 2 car seats. My recline handles on my second row seats have broken on both sides twice! The interior is very cheaply made and not worth the money on any model. There are only 2cup holders in the front which is a hassle. It drives great and is awesome on long trips. In town the gas mileage stinks. I wish we would have done more looking before we purchased this van. I do love the power and reliability. So I love a little and hate a little.

Favorite Features

MPG, tire press, fuel digital reading. Cargo area. Have had great service from dealership!

Suggested Improvements

Use higher quality on interior and get rid of the plastic everywhere! Get more cup holders and a real storage compartment between driver/passenger seat. Improve city gas mileage

BUYER BEWARE

Review

This van has been a sorry purchase from the start. 7 months after we got it, I called the nav number and they told me I needed to buy a new $280 disc as any addresses newer than 5 years in Houston could not be located, next the tires have gone bald after only 32K miles, Nissan canceled this feature and now we are to pay for all new tires and sensored rims as Michelin or Nissan will come thru. It is cheaply made and has all the packages on it, even tho we can't get some to work. Head rests are uncomfortable, also leg room on front passenger side. For the price it's an utter failure and can't believe Nissan won't stand by owners problems

Favorite Features

None I can think of!

Suggested Improvements

Navigation system is a joke, tire problems should not have happened and/or Nissan and Michelin should have recalled, seats need to be made more comfortable, and automatic doors need better sensors for little ones. Never again will we buy a Nissan!

Fun to drive minivan

Review

This van is drives like a car. We used to have a Honda Odyssey, and the Quest definitely drives like a car. We have used in around town and for long cross country trips, and the van performed well under both scenarios. Interior space is good for the driver and in the second row. Whenever I have been seated in the front passenger seat it doesn't feel comfortable. The 3rd seat row is very cramped and the bench seat back is too short. Definitely not a place for adults.

Favorite Features

Dash board, entertainment system, automatic sliding doors and hatch, sporty engine.

Suggested Improvements

Eliminate theater style seating for 3rd row. Improvements needed for defroster.

Great Car

Review

I bought this car 1 1/2 yrs ago & have no problems with it at all. About the front seats, the upper lumbar is angled too far back so you never really can press your back against it. I love the interior, very spacious inside although the ext design makes it appear more sleek. I recently took it for a 1000K mile trip w/ 3 adults and 3 children. It was very easy ride, comfortable and felt safe. Lots of power and gas mileage was very good on hwy. It sure stinks in the city though (15/24).

Favorite Features

Media controls/cruise on steering wheel is backlit. CD changer with MP3 hook up, Ext styling, power sliding door and liftgate. Good amount of storage in trunk area.

Suggested Improvements

Fix seat comfort issue, center console should be boxed off for storage, more cup holders in front. Rear/center windows should roll down

Too much plastic for the money

Review

We bought this car because my wife wanted her dogs to have easier access to get in. It is a beautiful van! Mileage is not what they tell in the city. Its way better on long vacation trips. So don't by this one unless you can afford the expense to have it. It takes some work to keep it clean inside. So in other words this better be your second car. Specially with the games they play with the cost of gas. When gas was at its most expensive, close to $5 a gallon, it cost almost $70 to fill up. Now that gas prices have fallen to $1.50 in our area, its under $30 a tank. Is the inside as good as I saw 4 years ago. No. I miss the center console idea, I saw in another friend's Quest.

Favorite Features

Exterior is beautiful. Inside materials could be better for what you have to pay. Even at the cheapest model. Too much plastic for a $30,000 car. For a van engine is great. It sounds like a race car when you speed up!!

Suggested Improvements

Better gas mileage. Less plastic inside

Review

Wow, a great looking "minivan"? I was completely impressed with the modern design, sporty look, awesome 27 mpg hwy etc. I've had the van for 1.5 years and am worried about reliability. All automated doors/sensors/gauges are giving me funny issues like doors sticking, sensors going out. Then I had to replace the tires at 30k runflats. Only one tire is available at $350 apiece!! So I need a truck now and am giving the van to my wife since I cannot sell it until it's paid off. After 1.5 years only worth 19k trade in. This van has everything skyview, dvd, nav, etc. and it dropped 20k in 2 years. I'll never buy Nissan again!

Favorite Features

Modern design, good gas mileage, cool feel for a minivan. Nice leather, functional dvd, great xtra features if they worked (only 32k miles) nice rims.

Suggested Improvements

Runflats are great but work on design before putting them on your vehicle. Sell it for a lower price since nissan has bad resale. Don't buy the car new!!!

Good value for money

Review

We drive that car on horrible northern Canada roads and up to now (2 years of ownership) absolutely no problem with it. We knew the Odyssey reliability is better than the Quests, but the price and style of the Quest finally got us, and we do not regret at all. The front seats are not very comfortable, but the rest is good. Good value for the money.

Favorite Features

Powerful drive train, road handling, power lift gate.

Suggested Improvements

Front seats not very comfortable, back seat does not fold 60/40.

Disappointing Quest

Review

While our van is still fine, I don't see it holding up well over the test of time. I researched many makes and models before settling on the Quest. This was my first van purchase - going from a convertible sports car to a minivan, I found the Quest to be the most stylish looking on the market. Our tire sensors are always lit on the dashboard - very annoying. When we got 500 miles on the van, we had to have a fuel pressure tank (or something like that replaced.) It sat on the dealership lot for 30 days before it was fixed. Overall, I wish I'd spent a little more money on a higher end van. Nothing has broken so far but I fear it's just a matter of time. Very cheaply made inside.

Favorite Features

Love the DVD and headphones.

Suggested Improvements

HATE the center console - it's a joke. Not enough cup holders in front for a mom of two toddlers.

DO NOT BUY!!!

Review

We traded our 04 quest for an 07 quest. Huge mistake. The 04 is nothing like the 07 at all. Storage is very limited. Seats are uncomfortable. Air barely blows any air. Heat takes forever to heat up and blow. Cloth seats get very dirty due to pattern chose on material. Lots of things that are plastic have broken, air vents, cup holders, etc. It gets horrible gas mileage. I drive to school and back and I use a tank in three to four days. That is going nowhere else approx. 14-17 mpg... not good at all! Not very roomy. Our sliding door kept popping dealership said couldn't fix when window shattered in a million pieces!! DO NOT BUY THIS VEHICLE!!

Favorite Features

Four bucket seats. Seven seating arrangement. DVD player with cordless head phones. Seats fold flat when have to carry big items. DVD player up front for easy access for parents instead of under seat like the 04 quest. Love the look of the QUEST!!

Suggested Improvements

Better material used. Get better gas mileage. Put gauges back in middle. Give more storage room up front. Make seats easier to fold down in very back. Go back to closer model of 04 Quest.

Review

When I purchased this car, I loved the features. Now, almost two years later, I regret buying it. While still very pretty, for a mini van, every thing is breaking. The rear cup holders, the rear sonar, the rear cover. Every little piece of plastic that can break is breaking. I could understand if I was hard on the vehicle. But it is mostly city driving, which the mileage is horrible, 11-13 miles per gallon.

Favorite Features

Sonar, which broke.

Suggested Improvements

Redesign, and use better quality, the plastic features
