I bought this Nissan Quest 1997 two years ago and I was told there is a faulty gas tank that can cause a fire. I contacted dealers in my area and was told the repair was done in one of the dealers but they never wanted to provided anything in writing that shows the repair. Courtesy Nissan in tampa Florida was terrible and didn't want to help, I contacted Nissan at the 1800 number and this guy chris at extension 8443 told me I was going to receive a letter showing the repair but I waited two weeks and never received nothing, when I called him back he never responded to my calls and I spoke with tammy at extension 3879 and said what chris told me was a lie I am very tired of this company lying to me everytime I call, I just wanted this people to be investigated, they have a terrible service at the 1800 number and I feel like me and my kids are traveling in a dangerous van, I won't recommend anybody to buy Nissan Quest or dealing with Nissan courtesy at tampa or the 1800 Nissan number, I wish somebody can investigate these people and do something about it, because I don't think is fair to buy a car with a dangerous recall and they don't even want to provide information if it was fixed or not or at least have it check. I won't buy a Nissan ever in my life, terrible company.
