| Description of the problem | In december of 2006 we purchased a 2004 nissan quest se. The first year was not entirely trouble free, the drivers seat would self adjust while driving. The dealer fixed it no charge. The in december of 07 the trans went out, again the dealer covered it at no charge, gave us a loaner and were done within a week. Except for the inconvenience of not having our van we were fine until now!!! In june of 08 we were going for a sunday drive and the van just died in the middle of the street. Nothing would work nothing, no power anywhere. We called road side and all they could do was tow us to al piemonte nissan in melrose park, il. The following monday, the dealer calls and tells us the ecu is burnt out, and has some corrosion. It's covered under warranty so no need to far right!!! A week later we finally get a loaner, ok not too bad. Two months go by and we finally have word that we have a date when the part will arrive!!!!! The part gets installed but the van runs like crap "omg you mean they actually tested it"!!!! They now are replacing a cracked distributor, god only knows how that happened!!!! The dealr does not charge us for that, but the van still runs like crap so now they have to replace three of the 6 coils and well we had to pay over $800 bucks for that. Totally not expecting that we had to charge it, putting us in the hole even deeper. You know we haven't spent alot of $ on this car but for a 4 year old car it sure has had alot of major components replaced. The the freaking dealer doesn't test the car, so we leave and the remotes, doors, sunroof, windows don't work. The center counsil is falling apart and they didn't even clean the |
