Consumer Description

THE POWER DOOR LOCKS ON MY 96 NISSAN QUEST HAVE A MIND OF THEIR OWN. THE FAMILY CALLS THEM "CRAZY" AND WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT WE DO NOT EVER LEAVE THE VEHICLE WITHOUT THE KEYS IN HAND. I AM RETIRED AND MY WIFE AND I BABY SIT SOME OF OUR GRANDCHILDREN, WE PRAY THAT WE DON'T FORGET ABOUT THEM "CRAZY" DOOR LOCKS WHILE TRANSPORTING THE GRAND KIDS. I MENTIONED THE PROBLEM TO A LOCAL SERVICE REP. AND HE WAS WELL AWARE OF THE PROBLEM WITH THE QUEST VAN POWER DOOR LOCKS. HE INDICATED THAT THEY HAD BEEN UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM EVEN AFTER REPLACING ALL THE POWER DOOR LOCKS. THIS LEFT ME WITH THE FEELING THAT A ROOT CAUSE HAD NOT BEEN FOUND AND PERHAPS I WOULD BE NOTIFIED IN THE NEAR FUTURE OF A "RECALL" OR SERVICE BULLETIN TO HELP WITH MY "CRAZY" POWER DOOR LOCKS. AFTER JUST SEEING THE CBS REPORT TONIGHT, IT IS APPARENT THAT MANY OTHER HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM, BUT HAVE NOT LET NHTSA KNOW. I JUST SPENT OVER $500 TO FIX THE AIR BAG LIGHT FROM COMING ON, TO REPLACE THE CONTROL MODULE, NOW I AM WONDERING IF THE POWER DOOR LOCKS PROBLEM MAY BE ANOTHER BAD CONTROL MODULE. CONTROL MODULES THAT INVOLVE SAFETY ISSUES SHOULD BE VERY RELIABLE.
