2008 NISSAN QUEST Electrical System Problems

I was parking and barely moving with my foot in the brake when the vehicle suddenly reved up loudly. I had to depress the brake heavily to keep it from moving forward and put it in neutral. The vehicle continued to rev hard until I turned off the engine.

WHILE THE ENGINE WAS ON AND THE CAR IN DRIVE, BUT STOPPED WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THE ENGINE UNEXPECTEDLY REVVED UP TO ABOUT 6000 RPM. THE FIRST TIME WAS ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO, IN A PARKING LOT. I THOUGHT PERHAPS I HAD INADVERTENTLY PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR WHILE MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE. TWO DAYS AGO IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS TIME I HAD DRIVEN ABOUT HALF A MILE, STOPPED THE CAR FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES, AND WHEN I STARTED AGAIN THE ENGINE RACED ONCE IT WAS PUT IN GEAR. I HAD TO TURN IT OFF AND THEN ON 3 TIMES FOR IT TO COME BACK TO NORMAL. YESTERDAY I DROVE ABOUT ONE MILE TO A TRAFFIC LIGHT, AND WHILE I WAS STOPPED WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO CHANGE THE CAR STARTED TO REV HIGH AND MOVE INTO THE INTERSECTION UNTIL I MOVED IT OUT OF DRIVE. I...

I WAS DRIVING THROUGH THE HIGHWAY AND WEND I STOP ON THE LIGHT MY CAR STOP WORKING SO I'LL I CALL THE TOW TRUCK .AND I TEKE TO THE MECHANIC AND THE MECHANIC TALL ME THE TRANSMISSION IS GONE AND HE HAVE TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION

THE BRAKE, ABS, SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT IS SHOWING ON THE DASH AND WILL NOT GO OUT. I JUST HAD BRAKES AND ROTORS PUT ON THIS VEHICLE. I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE VEHICLE JUST SHUT DOWN. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF TO THE SHOULDER SAFELY. THE VEHICLE AT FIRST WOULD CRANK BUT NOT START. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, I WAS ABLE TO START VEHICLE. NOW THE ENGINE RUNS ROUGH AND IT HESITATES ON ACCELERATION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN QUEST. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED ON, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE FUEL GAUGE FREQUENTLY FLUCTUATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ODOMETER SETTING WAS INACCURATE. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 10V072000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 133,000. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN QUEST. AFTER THE IGNITION KEY WAS TURNED TO THE ON POSITION, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START INTERMITTENTLY WITHOUT WARNING. IN ADDITION, WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE HEAD LAMPS RANDOMLY BECAME INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE LINE OR IGNITION SYSTEM MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 132,256.

EVER SINCE I PURCHASE MY NISSAN QUEST 2008 LAST YEAR ON OCTOBER 26, 2013. MY CD DOESN'T WORK. IT KEEPS EJECTING THE CD OUT AND NO MUSIC, I MIGHT SAY. ALSO, EVERYTIME I TURN ON MY VAN, THE RADIO WORKS, THEN IN A FEW MINUTES IT BLOWS OUT THE MUSIC. THEN A BUZZING SOUNDS STARTS TO HAPPEN. THE PASSENGER WINDOW DOESN'T GO UP ALL THE WAY. AS I PRESS THE BUTTON TO GO UP, THE WINDOW COMES DOWN HALF WAY. I HAVE TO CONSTANTLY PRESS THE WINDOW BUTTON. LITTLE BY LITTLE SO THE WINDOW CAN CLOSE. MY AIR CONDITIONER TAKES FOREVER TO GET COOL. INSTEAD OF COOL AIR, IT BLOWS WARM AIR. I AM VERY UPSET, BECAUSE I AM STILL PAYING FOR THIS NISSAN QUEST. I HAVE ALL THE CAR FAX, GIVEN TO ME BY THE CAR DEALER AND IT SAYS THE CAR HAS NO PROBLEMS AND ITS IN COMPLETE...

ON JUNE 26TH 2013 THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED TOTAL LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING AND THERE WAS A CORRESPONDING STRONG ELECTRICAL BURNING SMELL. FORTUNATELY THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE COAST OFF THE MAIN ROAD AND THE FAMILY WAS ABLE TO EXIT SAFELY. NO FIRE STARTED BUT CAR WOULD NOT RESTART. CAR WAS TOWED TO NISSAN WHERE THEY IDENTIFIED THE PROBLEM AS THE GROUND BATTERY CABLE BEING PULLED OFF THE TRANSMISSION MOUNTING POINT. THE BATTERY CABLE WAS REPLACED WITH A MODIFIED DESIGN THAT PREVENTS THIS FROM OCCURRING, THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY THE GROUND WIRE BREAKING WAS $2,871 WHICH INCLUDED THE GROUND WIRE, 6 IGNITION COILS, ECM, IPDM AND LABOR. THERE IS A TSB NTB06-075 FOR QUEST MODELS 2004-2007, HOWEVER THE 2008 HAD THE SAME DESIGN AS INDICATED IN THE TSB. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN AT ST CHARLES NISSAN AS RECENTLY AS 6 WEEKS EARLIER AND THE 27-POINT NISSAN INSPECTION HAD BEEN PERFORMED...
