Driving on a local single lane road in the early evening (dusk) and the weather was clear and dry. the drivers air bag deployed. there was no impact with the vehicle. *tr

I have nissan quest 2004 mini van. 2 weeks back one day my son 7 year old got trapped in the 3rd row seat on the passenger side. we couldn't take him out. if i try to loose the belt the it keep locking finally i had to cut the seat belt. usually if the belt locksup then if you release the belt it usually frees up but it didn't do it . luckily this happened when got to back to home and my kids were trying to come out of the van. i think this needs a little attention. i don't know if this is faulty seat belt or faulty mechanism. i strongly believe this mechanism was faulty and there is a possibility of kids getting trapped if they are not properly using seat belts. mainly if the lock and release mechanism is not working properly. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2004 nissan quest. the contact's son pulled the seat belt across his chest and simultaneously attempted to turn his body, which resulted in the seat belt wrapping around his neck. the contact attempted to release the seat belt and noticed that it had locked, which made it difficult for her to release the child. the child was finally able to be released and sustained bruising around his neck. the vehicle has not been diagnosed by the dealer. the current and failure mileages were 60,111.

I was driving on a side road with my daughters in the car when the airbag deployed for no reason. ten min utes later the car alarm sounded for 15 minutes nissan is claiming from the inspection that i was in a moderate to severe collision. this is totally not true. my daughters can attest to this. there are scraps under my car from the long gravel driveway that i use to drive to a horse farm. they are using these scraps as evidence of a collision. they will not repair the airbag or seatbelt. this is a huge safety issue for all 2004 quest owners.*ak

Consumer complained that the third row seat belt continued to tighten on the 9 year old child's waist while driving, and he was unable to release the belt by hand. they had to cut the seat belt to free their child. dealer was not notified at this time. *ak
