1996 Nissan Quest GLX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced transmission at 100,000 kilometers.
Air conditioning suddenly stopped working at 105,000.
Front end seems to always need some type of repair.
Windshield trim had to be replaced at 60,000 kilometers.
General comments?
The Quest is a smooth running, solid vehicle, and always starts.
The paint and body surface have held up very well despite the salty conditions we drive in. Although I do wash it weekly, even during the winter months, which makes a big difference.
My wife drives it most of the time, but whenever I drive it, I hear a new noise, or the check engine light appears.
Faulty sensors driving me crazy, and finding a reliable, and honest dealer in my area is impossible.
