Used 1996 Nissan Quest Consumer Reviews
Great Minivan
I bought this minivan in 1996 and still drive to work everyday. It is very reliable and never had any major problems. The only components I replaced so far were the air controller and motor on the air conditions (dual) for $500. Anything else was done by warranty. Fun to drive especially on free way. I took a round trip to Las Vegas(2,000 miles) by myself without any problems. It is a great minivan only requires rountine maintenance. Great highway gas milage and average for city. Dual air is an excellent option. You will like it!
Family workhorse
We have owned this minivan for 7 years and 125,000 miles. It still is as solid as when we bought it. No rattles, unlike our friend's Chrysler Town and Country at 40,000. It handles and brakes well. Has a good ride. It is underpowered, though, so you have to put your foot in it to get going. Only a few problems the whole time-air conditioning failed, and motorized seat belt failed on passenger side. Also, had to replace a radiator. That's it. Everything else runs like new. Just need more room as the kids have grown up. GM minivans have SUBSTANTIALLY more leg room.

My Baby
My husband and I bought this about 2 years ago when my son was born. We owned a Buick Century and realized that we needed a bigger vehicle, due to having our son and 4 dogs at the time. We bought it with 115k on it and now has close to 136k. We had to get new tires, and replace the sway bar end links and the speed sensor, but that was due to poor maintenance from the prior owner. I love my van and if I could afford a new one I'd buy it in a heartbeat. She was worth EVERY penny I put into her. Extremely reliable vehicle. She's my baby.
What a workhorse
I absolutely love this van. We're approaching 200,000 miles and we've only had one major repair (which was covered under warranty). The engine is still strong, the exterior paint is still in great condition, and it still rides smooth after all of these miles (a lot of them on backroads and in the mountains).
Good value -new models not so good
Bought at 60000 miles, now have 230,000. 24 mpg, comfortable, good protection, good power. Driving long miles 100 per day. Looking to 300k.
