2008 NISSAN QUEST — Complaint #2147448
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER filed November 10, 2025
NHTSA complaint #2147448 (ODI reference 11698607) concerns a 2008 NISSAN QUEST and was filed on November 10, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on August 13, 2025. The report was geocoded to Oregon based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as fuel system, other, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same NISSAN QUEST cohort independently describe similar fuel system, other failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2008 NISSAN QUEST shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
The contact owns a 2008 Nissan Quest. The contact stated that the vehicle ran out of gasoline with the fuel gauge indicating that there was a quarter tank to a half tank of gasoline inside the fuel tank. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, where the contact was informed that the vehicle was under an unstated recall for the fuel leveling unit; however, the part for the repair was on a national backorder. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and confirmed that the part was not only on backorder, but that the part for the repair was discontinued. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.
