 Description of the problemVehicle coming off turnpike entering onto the interstate would not accelerate past 45 mph onto the interstate almost ran over by vehicles when i was coming off the ramp. Very dangerous. Managed to get van to a safe place where we had it towed to our home. We had our mechanic look at it and he diagnosed it as the timing chain tensioners needed replacing and it had jumped time. He would not touch it since this is a known problem and there is a technical service bulletin issued for this year van concerning the tensioners. Had it then towed to nissan and they quoted 1700 to fix the mechanic even stated that it is a huge problem and he is seeing at least 1 a week with this very same issue. But nissan wont issue a recall. Is it going to take some fatalities for them to wake up and realize this is serious. After work performed to van they called and said it is still misfiring that they found valve cover leaking oil on spark plugs another 600 dollars to fix this. I just replaced spark plugs in 2010. Also replaced brakes 3 times and tires 2 times now. Alternator also replaced. I bought this van hoping it would be a safe and reliable van for my family to enjoy for a long time it has low miles and i hate to get rid of it. I am at the point though that i keep putting money into it thinking we will be able to be safe and next thing you know something else is wrong. I feel nissan should recall all models affected and fix this plastic tensioner on the metal chain, they know better this is a way for them to become richer off the people that trusted them. Never will my family or friends buy nissan again> since this has happened i have talked with many people that own or have owned a quest and they were not happy either. Please start a investigation before we lose a life.
