The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
We purchased a used (28K miles) 2002 Mercury Villager in 8'06. As I later found out this is a sister to the Nissan quest. Within 2 months it started to have periodic starting problems - meaning all power seemed ok, but when the key was turned, only a clicking sound was heard. We discovered sometimes this could be corrected by opening & closing the doors, or cycling the locks. After searching the web I found others with what appeared to be a similar problem and what others claimed the fix was. It seems an anti-theft ignition inhibit relay is the culprit. It seems to me failure of this relay should be be in a fail-safe fashion. Nonetheless, is there a factory tsb for this issue from Mercury or Nissan" is there a part available to correct this problem" already my wife and kids have been stranded due to this problem and I imagine someone somewhere may have an actual emergency.
