What owners wrote
Car was on e with light on. Put $60 of gas in approx 16 gal. Car should have been full. Restarted car and gas gauge stayed on e. Turned car off, restarted multiple times. Gas gauge moved to 2 bars. Dealership disconnected battery and when reconnected gas gauge moved to full. Pushed button in rear tailgate to close tailgate door, front windows rolled up instead. Stopped @ stop sign and then went to accelerate.
Vehicle lost power on highway in rainstorm. Were able to steer to side of road. Upon inspection by a mechanic, we discovered the ECM (computer) to be extremely corroded. We had it replaced for $1100.00. There was no nearby nissan dealer, but the master mechanic who replaced the part did order it from nissan. They would not honor the warranty, as the part was not installed by the dealer. I visited a site, questdriver.com where I found several similar complaints regarding 2004-2006 nissan quests.
