2008 Nissan Quest Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

I liked the vehicle until it 80k miles, then I had to replace 2 catalytic converters about $2500. Then the timing guides broke they are plastic the guides are inexpensive parts but the labor is expensive part of the engine has to be lifted to get to the timing belt assembly $3500 to fix mostly on labor. Also now leaking and burning oil. The A/C does not cool on the driver's side only the passenger even thought I have recharged the A/C. The starter had to be replaced about $250. Engine now is overheating I cannot idle it or go on heavy stop and go traffic as it overheats after 10 min I have to run the heaters on high to keep cool or I have to pull over, also happens if I am in the drive through in line, I have to keep turning off. All this happened between $80k - $100k miles. Even though I followed the maintenance schedule. Very disappointed with Nissan. I heard this model line was bad. Never again I will buy a Nissan going with Mazda from now on. :(

The number of positive reviews is surprising! I will admit that the van has a great drivetrain with plenty of power and a smooth shifting transmission. However, since new the vehicle has been plagued with issues. Wheel bearings, frequent brake jobs, cheap interior components that break, TPMS issues, emissions control problems, window regulators, stuck rear doors, motor mount, lower control arms, interior fan control module, water leaks, etc. All before 100k. If I was not able to perform the vast majority of these repairs myself I would have went broke maintaining this vehicle as Nissan ignored most of these issues while still under warranty. I would steer clear of the Quest and perhaps Nissan in general.

It is not too reliable and transmission is going out. Mileage is pretty good as well as the drive. It does not have 4 wheel drive, but drives very well. There are bumps on the outside from driving and bumper damage too. Overall it is a pretty good car that will last a few more years.

There's a really big, really expensive fuse that blows when you drive over 80, the gas gauge doesnt work, the transmission skips, the electronics have had to be rewired several times. And all of the seats are broken.

I like they way drives, However it has poor gas mileage and malfunctioning fuel gauge.It has served us well but is at the end of Its usefulness.

Over all we liked the roomy interior, comfortable seats and mileage. The electronics started to fail, ABS was first then the main computer needs replacement 1600.00 and a month waiting for parts. We love the van but I am worried about keeping it, if in the future the repairs keep continuing. Glen

I like how this type of car has enough space to hold many family members. I don't like the fact that it consumes so much gas over small distances. We have had several problems with our quest and have had to address the issue.

Because it has to many electric problems
