Suspension: front

07V2480001,438 vehicles affected

The problem
During production, a select number of vehicles underwent an offline inspection at the assembly plant where a bolt in the front suspension assembly was removed. On some of these vehicles, it is possible that this bolt may not have been tightened to specification when it was reinstalled.
The risk
If the bolt is loose, the driver will hear a rattling noise and notice vibration. If the bolt comes off completely, the driver can experience difficulty in controlling the direction of the vehicle which could result in a crash.
The fix
Dealers will replace the attachment bolts and tighten them to the specified value. This recall began on july 2, 2007. Owners may contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.

I just replaced all the motor mounts on my 2007 nissan quest. They have gone bad again. After looking up many forums online, this appears to be a very common issue and possible design flaw. Why has this not become a recall on nissan's part? Are motor mounts not a concern? Everyone is stating that no matter what they use, either aftermarket or genuine nissan parts, they all fail.

Severe sub-frame rot only on passenger side. Brought to my attention during routine maintenance, and was told this was a very common issue. Driver side appears fine. Appears a/c drip is suspect, and the frame just rots directly below it. Online search revealed numerous exact complaints. All other components are solid. How is this not a safety recall? *Tr

Fuel system

Fuel gauge sensor was brought in for recall but issue still exists. Dealer claims I need to pay to determine if it is still the same problem. Dealer also confirmed they do not verify the recall work done was successful. All they are required to do is "put in the new parts". When I fill the tank within 5 mins. It goes back to empty on the gas gauge. The recall did nothing to solve the problem.

My 2007 nissan quest with144,500 miles, has a real bad clunking sound when accelerating, decelerating, or taking off from a standstill. A mechanic told me that it is from bad motor mounts. When accelerating or braking, the motor moves a lot. It does not make any more noises when turning, mainly win braking and accelerating, but also when the transmission shifts up or down a gear.

The gas gauge must be faulty. If I fill up may move or not. Usually shows empty. The van may be moving or sitting still . I called nissan dealership and was vin was included in the recall. I can't understand why because has the same issue as the 68,000 vans that were repaired. I think the part is called sender unit.

Engine & cooling

My van has 120k miles on it. For the past one year, I have been dealing with a rattle sound in the engine. It comes on a cold start and would go away after a couple of minutes. My mechanic took a look and said these nissan engines have a known issue with the timing chain. Lately the rattle sound keeps coming for more than 5 minutes. I am afraid this will cause some other problem in the engine that would stall the engine while running on the road. Nissan should issue a recall and fix this timing chain issue, which it already knows about.

The ecm (computer) is placement is under windshield. Which over time allows water to run down into the ecm causing erosion and holes in the housing and computer. Then water gets into the computer causing it fail communicating or not properly communicating with the car. This problem that nissan does not want to own. My computer is damaged due to its placement and water hitting over time. This has caused the car to shake and send errors that cause the cylinder to miss fire. I was driving and the service engine light came on and flashed.
