TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 NISSAN QUEST. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE TEMPERATURE ROSE. THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AND COOLANT WAS ADDED TO THE ENGINE AND THE CONTACT PROCEEDED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC THE FOLLOWING DAY AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE HEAD GASKET WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE GASKET HAD BEEN REPLACED ONCE BEFORE AT 40,000 MILES. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 104,000.
DESCRIPTION: THE INSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR IN MY 2002 NISSAN QUEST IS AN ELECTRO CHROMIC SELF-DIMMING MIRROR THAT HAS NO MANUAL BACKUP. THE MIRROR CONTAINS A FLUID WHICH HAS RECENTLY ACCUMULATED ON THE BOTTOM 3/4 OF THE MIRROR SURFACE CAUSING THE SELF-DIMMING MIRROR TO FAIL TO PROVIDE DIMMING AGAINST REAR APPROACHING HEADLIGHTS ON THE TOP 1/4TH. ADDITIONALLY, THE BOTTOM 3/4THS IS SO DARK IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE VEHICLES APPROACHING UNLESS THEIR LIGHTS ARE ON. A PERSON STANDING BEHIND THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE SEEN AT DUSK. THERE ARE MANY DOCUMENTED CASES OF THESE MIRRORS FAILING IN VARIOUS MAKES AND MODELS AS A RESULT USUALLY FROM THE INTERNAL FLUID LEAKING. THIS MIRROR WAS MADE BY MAGNA DONNELLY. REPLACEMENT MIRRORS ARE APPROXIMATELY $350 FROM THE DEALERSHIP. *TR
