| Description of the problem | I have had an intermittent electrical issue with my nissan quest for the last few years (since 60,000 miles, now at 100,000 miles). The dealer has been unable to properly diagnose this issue over a period of years, and it is a safety concern. Suddenly the speedometer drops to zero when i am driving and all the dashboard hazard lights go on. When i am able to pull over and turn off and restart the car, the check engine light remains on and the car is ok for a few days/weeks/months. Then it all happens again. They have changed sensors, tightened all electrical connections, and now would like to change the abs actuator assembly. I notice online that this is a problem that many owners of 2004 quests have, and seems to be a serious safety issue. I have not allowed my children to drive my car. I feel this needs a recall from nissan to correct. |
