Investigation Details
Investigation and potential class action lawsuit against Nissan.
The investigation centers around the reported malfunctioning of the automatic sliding door in the Nissan Quest for model years 2004 and 2005. The owner's manual claims that the door has a safety feature which would prevent the door from closing if there is a hand in the doorway, but that is not true. Consumers have reported though that the automatic sliding doors will sometimes close on a person's hand if it is in the way of the sliding door. This may mean that the sensor mechanism designed to prevent such an occurrence is defective.
