Because crash test performance doesn't factor in a cars regulatory performance. It should do though. Car crashes poorly? You can sell it - but it's going to have a massive 3rd party insurance cost, pricing the car out of the market.
the odyssey in that private test was worse than the quest; the dummy slid off the front airbag. I compared the two side by side and the structural collapse in the 2012 odyssey looked to be more than the 2014 quest
"The 2014 Nissan Quest was even safer than the 1998 Toyota Sienna, let alone the Trans Sport. This probably wouldn't go over well in some car safety circles, but it's the truth. The Quest has side and curtain airbags, better head restraints, and did just as well as the Sienna in the moderate overlap test. It's because car safety evolves quickly that the Quest is seen as unsafe. Had it been out in 1998, it would have been seen as a revolution in minivan safety. But it was made at a time where it had fallen below average. Nevertheless, Honda and Toyota structurally reinforced their minivans shortly before that Quest test and Kia introduced a redesigned minivan entirely. So by the standards of, say, 2012, the Quest probably would have been close to average. The Trans Sport was far worse on safety even for its time. Structurally, it was worse than most mid-late 1980s cars, as evidenced by the significant upward dashboard movement in the NHTSA test." -whattheheck1000, 2024
@@haidengameplays The quest and the trans sport were tested in different tests at different times. The trans sport was the worst performer in the 1997 MODERATE OVERLAP TEST against other minivans. In the moderate overlap, the 2014 quest got good. I heavily doubt the trans sport would even survive a small overlap, considering its age and structural collapse in the test (the collapse was so bad that the dummy's foot snapped off.)
@@haidengameplays no i've seen u in so many videos, and I don't seem to understand why u hate the quest over one failed crash test (which was new at the time.)
Interestingly, they don't necessarily recall / ban the sale of cars that get such a bad rating.... maybe they should start. Make these crash test mandatory and any that receive a poor rating in the overlap test cannot be sold until the issues are resolved.
@@haidengameplays The Trans Sport’s crash test had 2 tests if you watched 1996/1997 Dateline NBC minivan crash test. First test the leg got really stuck and the 2nd test the foot snapped off.
How is it even legal to sell it in that state.. it should require a redesign to even be roadworthy.
Exactly that’s what I’m saying.

1. The Quest is by far not the only poor performer.
2. The IIHS is not run by the government.

100%
It fits the name perfectly, Nissan Quest. They do have a "quest" which that mean to fix their safety features!
I love AI voices reading me copy-pasted content from a website somewhere.
This is my knowledge nothing was copy pasted from a website until I show pictures of the aftermath of the crash and I say institute claims, “ .”
the fact that the channel icon is the BeamNG logo is just brutal lmao
I do beamng content too that’s why
I saw a 2013 quest on autotrader with 195K for only 5 grand. No wonder they don't cost a lot of money.
It's not the reason they sell cheaply. It's because at 195,000 miles - it's fucked.
The 2012 Honda Odyssey is pretty bad too
