Fear of first year run, but no problems so far. We were looking at getting anything BUT a minivan to replace our aging Town & Country, but the Quest had lots of room, good fuel economy and was cooler than a lot of the small & midsize SUVs we looked at! Biggest complaint is that many options are only available on SE, and SE needs more interior options (see below).
Thank Heavens I didn't get an Odyssey

We bought our Quest in August. It is October and we are already close to 5,000 miles. I insisted on buying an Odyssey until my husband told me to at least look at the Quest....well, I saw and then test drove both engines (SL and SE). No comparison!! Bought the SE. Only problem is if you want to add the DVD system after purchase it can't be done. Nissan is not even selling the system for alternate installation, so get it now!!

1) Both side sliding doors are making such a bad noise that it seems that the door is going to fall down any minute now... 2) The second problem is performance. Even though the car is OK performance wise, but lets say you drive 30mph and press the gas pedal little bit, the noise that comes from the motor is seems you are going uphill... 3) Driver seat and the passanger seat desings are so poor that you will never be able to rest your head on the headrest. 4) The driver's seat does not go back too much, so it seems you are stuck there... 5) On the back seat, it is too rough.
Excellent ! Nissan is Number 1

Saw the concept 2 years ago,just had to wait for the production model. Awesome, simply awesome, no other minivan comes close.The room is unbeliveable, the center pod and instrumentation make so much sense placed the way they are.My 3 kids just love this vehicle.Checked out Honda,Toyota and Mazda. The Quest is miles ahead of the competition. If your in the market for a minivan do yourself a favour and test drive the new Quest you won't be disapointed. Excellent, simply excellent, way to go Nissan.

I have to say that I am in love with this van, styling beautiful, with great handling, comfort and amenities. Little or no lean in turns, very roomy. The instrument panel takes a little getting used to, but functions well, and once learned, is simple and easy.

Extremely nice ride and the technology included makes it a winner for the male ego. The navigation system is superb, with the ability to edit locations real handy for fine-tuning the general to the specific. I am truly glad I purchased this automobile.

This minivan amazes me each and every time I see and drive it. It almost drives like a sports sedan, it's quiet, comfortable, has a great ride, great road feel and handling for a minivan - heck for ANY car! - It's GREAT looking and so NOT conventional! I get looks EVERYWHERE I go - people seem very impressed by a cool looking minivan. This minivan TRUMPS every other one out there, hands down in my opinion.

0 of 0 people found this review helpful
Over a period of 22 months the vehicle has been 18 visits (6 of them combined with regular services) resulting in 22 days at the dealer, the vehicle generated 45 warranty-related repairs. The tires lasted 30K miles and required new brake pads at 27K miles. It is apparent that this car, if not legally a lemon, is definitely a buyback case due to the nuisance factor caused by poor quality. Nissan refuses to admit this. With 26 months left at the average rate of warranty incidents, the car is projected to return another 14 times (excluding scheduled maintenance). I strongly urge any prospective minivan driver to avoid the Quest on the grounds of poor build and service quality
Disappointed

When I first bought this vehicle I thought I was getting a good deal. I have had my car for 5 years and now I am told that I need $5000.00 dollars of engine work done on it. I have completed all my maintenance schedules. I paid the higher price for repairs and maintenance by getting all my work done at the dealer. I have had to replace the stereo twice in the last 5 years. The rubber molding around the door has come off numerous times. Maybe the newer models are better but make sure you get the warranty to cover yourself to 100000 miles, I didn't and now I have to pay. The car should have lasted longer than 5 years.
This is a great car

We have just purchased our fifth Quest. This one is amazing. The last one we owned (2000) was a little dissapointing compared to the previous models, But Nissan got this one perfect.Drives like a dream and the styling is a knockout. My wife drives it most of the time, and I drive a 2002 Honda SI. I am always surprised to get as many "looks" in the Quest as I do in the SI. If you're thinking van...check this one out. If you're thinking suv.... check this van out!

My wife and I wrestled with & agonized over the idea of buying a mini van for our growing family. Then we saw the new Quest. There is no mistaking this for anything other than a mini van, however,this is a nice looking and unique mini van. The performance is spirited and fun. The ride is quiet and comfortable. The centered speedometer and display took a little bit of getting used to, but now I really like it. The room and versitility of the interior is great. If you want the versitility of a mini van, but don't the stigma typically attatched to owning one, the new Quest lessens the blow and is fun to drive.

The Quest 3.5s is a great minivan. I test drove the Odyssey, the new Sienna, the Grand Caravan/Town & Country, the MPV, and Sedona. The 2 that stood out were the Quest and Sienna. They both had everything but the Quest's exterior/interior and flat fold 2nd/3rd row seats(Sienna only had flat fold 3rd row)won me over. Its hip, sleek, sporty and still roomy. The interior looks futuristic and is so roomy and comfortable. The Sienna was 1k less than the Quest but the Quest was worth the extra 1k. Driving the Quest feels like driving an Accord or Altima.
It's awsome

Our first minivan, and after months of debate and test driving Odyssey, Sienna, Pacifica, Pilot, XC90, T&C, Grand Caravan, Rendezvous, MDX, and V70, we realized that that you can call a crossover what you like but there ends up being a compromise in the real functionality of a minivan. Quest does not compromise style or performance for functionality. We can take turns similar to our 98 Maxima, strap the kids in the seats without over extending like some of the 3rd rows in the SUV, Bose sounds great, 17" wheels look sporty and the features for price seem to be one of the best.
i Love my quest

As a former 2001 Odyssey owner, I had high standards when I shopped for a new minivan in September. Of course, another Odyssey was considered -- until I stepped into a 2004 Nissan Quest and discovered what I've been missing! I thoroughly admire the central control panel and display -- this IS the 21st century, isn't it? Shouldn't digital displays, tactile/touch-controls, self- monitoring tire gauges all be standard by now? This vehicle draws the curious whereever I go and its sure to turn heads for years to come. My Odyssey has ended. But my Quest has just begun.

After checking Toyota and Honda we went to see Nissan, and that was it. Every one in my family loves this van. Took almost a month to get the color and options I wanted, but finally I got it and it was worth waiting.

I had some major personal issues with the "soccer mom minivan" image, so I refused to drive one..until I saw the Quest! I have an SE with rouge interior and it's the best, most stylish vehicle I've ever owned. I traded a Lexus LX470 for it and I couldn't be happier. My kids love the ease of entry (auto sliding doors are great!) and the 2 DVD screens...I love the way it drives and the open feeling of the skylight roof.It's like piloting a plane..cockpit, cabin..I could go on and on. The interior is so much bigger than it appears from the outside. And oh, yeah..I love the automatic rear hatch. Great job Nissan...this "soccer mom" thanks you!

Nissan has made strides from the last generation Quest. The body style and features are a total separation from the old Nissan Quest a the Mercury Villager, (exact same vehicle, different trim)! The center console is something you have to get used to, but the "stadium seating" style for the passengers is a an awsome feature!
Awesome Minivan :)

I love just about everything about this van. At first, I had planned to get a Toyota Sienna - until Fowler Toyota in Norman told me it wasn't in their interest to do business with me (I had negotiated to get $2000 of MSRP). When I found out they ordered the wrong color, I changed to the Nissan - and was wonderfully happy I did! Hudiburg Nissan treated me well :) The kids love the dual DVD screens, and everything about the van is a gadet- girl's dream :)

This is our third Quest and we expected this 'new' Quest to be as good as the others and we have been very disappointed. Right off the lot the van has needed repairs for vibrations, rattling doors, seats....too many to go on. Perhaps that is why Nissan increased the bumper to bumper warranty. We love the space and it is great on the road but it just has not lived up to being a Nissan.
Great Van! A++

I got mine as an 04 left over in March of 2005 with 70 miles on it. It has ben a great van so far. Nissan extended the warranty for 04s from 3 to 5 years because of some minor bugs ie doors(which is bound to happen with any new model year)if this tells you about how they stand behind their vehicles. Looked at Honda and Toyota and got a MUCH better deal even if it hadnt been a left over. If your looking for a van definatley take a look at the Quest. The 06 seems to have even more features. If I still find I need a van in a couple years when it's time to trade mine in I will go with the Quest again!
Too many problems - it's a lemon!

Currently going through the process of getting van bought back by Nissan through LEMON LAW. Been in for service 9 times (27 total days in shop)! SLIDING DOORS rattle, squeek, shake, grind and do not open, close, align, or latch properly. Sliding doors are extremely UNSAFE. Van has had 6 RECALLS performed, along with the entire driver's side REPAINTED due to rock chips since doors were misaligned. Nissan extended OEM warranty to 5yrs/60k miles, but that doesn't account for the POOR BUILD QUALITY. Vehicle pulled to the left, transmission pan leaked, CV boot ripped, sun visor label fell off, left rear quarterpanel loose - PROBLEMS are too many to list. Buy a HONDA or TOYOTA!!!

Bought this as soon as it was introduced. have about 33k miles so far. Been in dealership for warranty related service, regular service, recalls for 20 times- ~ 35 days. Had replaced wheel bearings and transmission control module already. Replaced door weather stripping, CD/Radio already. Doors and seats rattle all the time. Nissan is not able to fix it so far after 6 attempts. Never seen such a poor quality car. Buy a Honda, Toyota, Mazda, Kia, Ford or GM minivans but never this. In fact I will never buy another Nissan again. Also, customer service dept at Nissan USA is really bad. Soon Nissan will lose all its goodwill and will end up bankrupt negating their amazing financial turnaround.
Best Minivan with style ...

From the very beginning of my purchase, I have encountered problems. Electrical disaster. Problems on the dashboard. Had to get tires, brake job. Took to Nissan to replace alternator. Have a whole lot of squeaking in sliding doors and other places. Had some problems with acceleration hesitation. Interior lights & air vents falling out of ceiling. Vibration and ratting problems. Engine smoking and burning oil need a ring job. The warranty will not cover it because of requirement to have all oil changes information on it. We did not get all of our oil changes from them so we need proof of getting them from other establishment so that we can get our motor fix. It has been a nightmare.
Love our nissan

We just purchased an SE last week and I'm thrilled with the styling and amenities. I traded in our 1993 Quest with 195,000 miles and hope this one will last as well. Can't yet tell about reliability etc. but the aesthetics of the car are spectacular! The wife and kids love the skylights, DVD and 10 speaker stereo. Can't wait to take it on a trip. We chose this over Sienna because our '93 Quest was so great and the Siennas were so hard to find and lacked pizazz.

If you want a van for comfort, style, lots of space and plenty of storage, then this is the mini van for you! We test drove other vans and we went with this one because of the way it handles and the options that came with it! Before you buy anything ~ go test one of these before you finalize your decision!

After test driving a Sienna and Odyssey, and looking at a poor Windstar, this is the minivan to buy, if this can be called a minivan. I have no idea yet on reliability, but the ergonomics are excellent, it is huge for six people and a lot of gear, it drives and rides excellently, and continues the trend of redefining the minivan. Really it is a long car with sliding doors. What a nice car. But there is nothing mini about it. Nay

Found the vehicle to be very versitile in that the second row seats lay down flat to the floor. Seems to get reasonable gas mileage though not as good or responsive as my old Lincoln Continental. Radio volume can be set to increase automatically as speed increases. Best gas mileage to date is amount 22mpg.

I just traded a 2004 Chrysler Pacifica because of the constant shifting due to lack of performace. I went for the Nissan Quest because I required Navigation System as well as XM radio. It surprised me that Toyota Sienna did not have XM radio available. Even Lexus only has one model (LS430) that has XM. If you like music it is a must have item. Worth every penny. This new Nissan has it all, including good fuel economy!

I absolutely love the look of this vehicle. It certainly doesn't look like all the other minivans. As parents of two teenage boys and a baby girl, we were looking to purchase a vehicle with lots of room. We looked at the competition, Honda and Toyota, but we weren't impressed. The Quest is perfect, with pleanty of room for baby equipment and generous leg room in all three rows for our almost 6' tall son. I love it!

I love driving my Quest. I am very tall and having the displays in the center of the console prevents the steering wheel from obstructing my view. Automatic side rear and back doors are wonderful with two small kids. So are the fold down seats and ability to pull second row seats forward to access third row, even if second row seats have child seats installed.
Love it

I looked at several Minivans both foreign and domestic, but when I saw the Quest, I was in love. I was going to settle for a Chevy Venture LT loaded because of the price and rebates,(My father worked for GM) but I just couldn't do it. I narrowed my choices down to the Odyssey and the Quest because of their quality. I was able to get the Quest for $29,800 out the door.

After owning three Quests this redesign is truly a work of art. Just about anything that we felt could be improved the engineers and designers at Nissan have incorporated in this new unit. We had seriously entertained the idea of changing vehicles this time around but were blown away when we test drove the new 2004. Thank you Nissan

The new Quest is awesome. It whoops the Oddyssey and Sienna by a mile. It looks awesome and is as fast as a 350Z. Smooth ride and good gas mileage make it my favorite.
