| Description of the problem | I purchased a 2006 nissan quest on march 14, 2006 from nissan 112 in medford, n. Y. And i have had nothing but a multitude of problems with this vehicle due to many defects. I have had to have the car serviced 5 times in the first month and a half of ownership and there are still many problems that have not and cannot be resolved. I was told by nys senator lavalle's office to contact you. Vin [xxx]-the car smells like rotten eggs, transmission slips, buck and jerks causing delay of acceleration. Does not always start on first key turn, rugs in hatch area stained from multiple leaks. "new" replaced computer mileage does not match odometer mileage therefore service screen is useless. Dashboard chipped and not set correctly, can see inside. Radio does not always display title/artist and letters become skewed/broken or stuck. Ticking sound that comes from front pass. Side dash. There is black glue all over exterior from re-sealing the rear window. *jb updated 07/16/2012 *js information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6) |
