NHTSA Complaint #10108303 — 2002 NISSAN QUEST

I OWNED A 2002 NISSAN QUEST WITH APPROX. 40,000 MILES. ON JANUARY 13, 2005, I RETURNED TO MY HOME AT 2:00AM. AT APPROXIMATELY 2:15AM I HEARD 2 LOUD POPS COME FROM OUTSIDE MY HOME. WHEN I LOOKED OUTSIDE MY VAN WAS COMPLETELY ENGULFED IN FLAMES AND WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED FROM THE FIRE DAMAGE. PREVIOUS SERVICE HISTORY INCLUDED: CHECK OF DRIVERS SIDE POWER WINDOW FOR OUT OF TRACK PROBLEMS AND PROBLEMS WITH ELECTRICAL (CONSOLE LIGHTS AND TAIL LIGHTS) ACTING IMPROPERLY WHICH THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY COULD NOT RE-DUPLICATE. WORKED WITH AUTUMN AT NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, VERY RUDE AND UNHELPFUL. NISSAN STATED THAT I HIT A LARGE OBJECT AND DAMAGED THE FUEL TANK HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE HAD NEVER BEEN INVLOVED IN ANY OTHER INCIDENTS OR ACCIDENTS.*AK
