On the 2004-2017 Nissan Quest 3.5L VQ35DE V6, the Quest's power sliding doors suffer from motor failures, broken cables, and latch mechanism issues. The electric motor that drives the door wears out, leaving the door stuck partially open or unable to power-close. The latch assembly also fails, preventing the door from staying closed. In some cases, the door opens unexpectedly while driving, creating a serious safety hazard.

This issue also affects: Nissan Altima, Infiniti G35, Nissan 350Z

Common Symptoms

  • Power door stops mid-travel
  • Door won't close completely
  • Grinding noise when door operates
  • Door opens on its own while driving
  • Power door feature stops working entirely

How to Fix

Replace the sliding door motor assembly ($300-$600) or the latch assembly ($150-$300) depending on the failure. Check the door cable for fraying before assuming the motor is bad. Lubricate the door track and rollers with white lithium grease every 6 months. If the door opens unexpectedly, the latch recall (NHTSA 15V-595) may apply — contact Nissan dealer.

Owner tips & cautions

  • WarningIf the sliding door opens while driving, disable the power door switch immediately and use manually only. Then get to the dealer for the latch recall. This is a child safety issue.
Typical repair cost:$200 - $800
