I just wanted to state that I have identified with most of the failure problems that are listed on the complaint page. The right rear seat belt has failed, it will not pullout or retract, and no one cause this problem, it is a malfunction of the saet belt. There is a significant fuel odor in the van from time to time, no particular time noted. The sliding door does not lock and unlock properly, and it will lock by itself and stick, also it will not stay in the open position consistantly.my brake pads are going out, it may just be normal wear and tear, but they seemed to go out all of a sudden. In general it makes all kinds of whistling, grinding and bumping noises when driving.

Quest 4WD 4-cyl Diesel

While the vehicle was parked the consumer heard the vehicles horn blowing and went to see what the problem was. Upon reaching the vehicle the consumer saw smoke coming from under the hood of the vehicle. The insurance investigator indicated that the wire within the engine loom shorted and melted other wires in the loom, which caused the smoke. On a separate occasion the 10 amp fuse blew causing the vehicles dash indicators (speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge and temperature gauge) to stop working. The vehicle has been plagued with multiple electrical failures
