2007 Nissan Murano complaints

I BROUGHT MY CAR TO REED NISSAN TO BE DIAGNOSED BECAUSE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. THEY DIAGNOSED THE CAR AND SAID THAT A FEW THINGS NEEDED FIXING AND WHEN FIX THE LIGHT WILL BE GONE. I PAID TO FIX THE CAR AND WHEN I WAS DRIVING HOME THE CHECK EGINE LIGHT CAME BACK. I CALLED BACK AND SPOKE TO MY SERVUCE ADVISOR WHO TOLD ME TO BRING BACK THE CAR TO BE RE DIAGNOSED. THE FINDING WAS ANOTHER PROBLEM THAT APPARENTLY DIDNT SHOW UP BECAUSE OF HOW LONG THE CAR TOOK TO BE FIX. I AGREE TO REPLACED WHAT THEY QUOTE ME THE PRICE FOR BUT INSTEAD I GOT THE OPPOSITE. THEY REPLACED WHAT THEY WANTED TO AND DISNT REPLACE EVERYTHING THEY AGREED TO REPLACE BUT I STILL HAD TONPAY ALL THE MONEY THAT WAS AGREED ON EVENTHOUGH I DIDNT GET ALL THE WORK DONE THAT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE DONE. TODAY MY CAR RADIATOR BLEW AND THEY SAY THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR IT A WEEK AFTWR I FIX MY CAR WITH THEM. THERE WAS ALSO A CRACK IN MY ENGINE COVER AND A SCREW MISSING TO KEEP IT TIGHT. MY RADIATOR COVER SCREWS WERE ALSO MISSING. I APOD MY MONEY AND DIDNT GET THE JOB THAT THEY TOLD ME I WAS SUPPOSED TO GET. WHRN I SPOKE TO THE MANAGER THEY GIVE ME ALL THESE STORIES AND WERE NOT TAKING ANY BLAMES FOR ANYTHING. THE TECH WHO WORKED ON MY CAR SAID HE DIDNT BROKE MY ENGINE COVER AND THAT THE SCREW WAS MISSING SO HE LEFT IT THE SAME WAY. AS A TECHNICIAN YOU WORK ON SOMEONE CAR ENGINE AND DID NOT REPLACE THE SCREW AND BROKE MY COVER AND LIED ABOUT IT AND OF COURSE NISSAN BACKS HIM EVENTHOUGH HE WAS WRING AND WAS LYING. T

MY HUSBAND AND I BOUGHT OUR 2007 NISSAN MURANO 1 YEAR AGO. THE CAR DROVE GREAT FOR THE PAST YEAR UNTIL MARCH 11, 2017. WHILE DRIVING TO A MOVIE, THE CAR MADE A VERY UNUSUAL SOUND, SIMILAR TO A LOUD FLAT TIRE AND THE CAR LOST POWER ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY. THANKFULLY, WE WERE ABLE TO PUT ON OUR HAZARDS, AND WE BARELY MADE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. MY HUSBAND TOOK A LOOK AT THE BACK OF THE CAR WHERE THE SOUND WAS COMING FROM, AND HE NOTICED A CRACK IN THE REAR END UNDER THE CAR. OF COURSE, WE HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE NEAREST SHOP. THE MECHANIC HAS NOW REPORTED TO US THAT THE TRANSFER CASE WAS CRACKED AND IT SEIZED UP. THE MECHANIC ALSO TOLD US THAT THERE IS A CRACK IN THE FRONT END AS WELL. THE MECHANIC IS POSITIVE THAT THE FAULTY TRANSFER CASE HAS CAUSED THE CRACK IN THE REAR END AND THE FRONT END OF THE CAR, THESE ARE CRACKS IN THE REAR END OF THE POWER TRAIN AND FRONT END OF THE POWER TRAIN. THE TOTAL COST TO FIX THIS VEHICLE IS ESTIMATED AT $ 6000.00. THIS IS APPALLING AFTER RESEARCHING THE ISSUE; A FAULTY TRANSFER CASE IS COMMON AMONG THE 2007 NISSAN MURANO'S. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A SEVERE ACCIDENT, AS WE LOST POWER ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY AND A CAR HAD TO SWERVE OUT OF THE WAY TO MISS US. I PRAY THAT SOMETHING WILL BE DONE ABOUT THIS. A 6000.00 DOLLAR SET BACK IS BEYOND OUR MEANS, AND WE HAVE TO SCRAPE AT EVERYTHING TO GET THE MONEY, WE HAVE FOUR CHILDREN WHO COULD HAVE USED THAT MONEY FOR THINGS THEY NEEDED. NOW INSTEAD OF CHICKEN OR ROAST FOR DINNER, IT WILL BE ROMAN

VISORS WILL NOT STAY UP IN STORAGE. EXPENSIVE REPLACEMENT BUT NOT SAFE. VISOR WILL SUDDENLY DROP OBSTRUCTING DRIVERS VIEW OF THE ROAD. THIS HAPPENS BOTH ON DRIVER AND PASSENGER VISORS BUT DRIVER IS WORSE. COMPLETELY OBSCURES VIEW OF ROAD AND IT IS UNPREDICTABLE WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN. NO WAY TO TIGHTEN OR FIX. NO PROMISE THAT REPLACEMENT WON'T HAVE SAME PROBLEM.

INTAKE BOOT SEPARATES FROM THE INTAKE MANIFOLD AND THE ENGINE STALLS. THIS CAN AND HAS HAPPENED TO ME AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. TOTAL LOSS OF POWER AND CONTROL. MECHANIC HAS WORKED ON IT REPEATEDLY AND IT KEEPS COMING OFF. AT BEST IT WILL STAY IN PLACE FOR A COUPLE MONTHS BEFORE IT COMES OFF AGAIN WITH NO WARNING. TOLD MY CAR IS NOT COVERED BY RECALL BUT HAVE EXACT SAME PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRACKET UNDER THE FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT, WHICH SECURED THE SEAT IN PLACE, FRACTURED AND CAUSED THE SEAT TO TILT TO THE DRIVER'S SIDE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE SEAT AND THE BRACKET NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. UPDATED 05/10/17*LJ *CN

I EXITED A PARKING LOT AND WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 20MPH THE DRIVERS SEAT REAR MOUNTING BRACKET BROKE ON THE REAR LEFT SIDE, THE SEAT SNAPPED BACK TO THE LEFT SIDE WHICH NEARLY CAUSED ME TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I'VE READ ON THE FORUMS THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO NEARLY EVERY SINGLE 2003 - 2007 NISSAN MURANO. *TR

REAR SUB FRAME RUSTED

LAST YEAR MY DRIVERS SIDE FRONT SEAT ANCHOR/BRACKET BROKE. POOR DESIGN. REAR SUB FRAME RUSTED OUT RESULTING IN THE REAR LEFT WHEEL TO NEARLY FALL OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS YEAR MY WIFE WAS ADVISED BY A PERSON IN A VEHICLE BEHIND HER THAT THE REAR WHEEL WAS READY TO LAUNCH. ROAD SALT CAUSED RUSTING TO SUB FRAME BODY MOUNT. AGAIN POOR DESIGN AND MATERIAL. *TR

HELLO, I OWN A 2007 NISSAN MURANO AND HAVE JUST HAD AN ISSUE WHERE THE ENTIRE SUB FRAME HAS BROKEN IN HALF DUE TO RUST. THE CAR IS NOT EVEN 10 YEARS OLD (160K MILES) AT THIS POINT AND I WAS WONDERING IF SUCH A DANGEROUS ISSUE WOULD BE ELIGIBLE FOR REPAIR VIA NISSAN? ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TRACK ON DRIVER'S SIDE BROKEN, GOT INTO CAR AND RIGHT SIDE OF SEAT WENT BACKWARD.

FRONT TRANSFER CASE LEAKS FOR NO APPARENT REASON CAUSING FAILURE. NO MAINTENANCE CHECKS ARE LISTED FOR THIS PART AND APPEARS TO BE A DESIGN FAILURE.

I OWN A 2007 NISSAN MURANO THAT I BOUGHT USED 1.5 YEARS AGO. THERE ARE TWO SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUES THAT THE CAR HAS AND FOR WHICH NISSAN HAS HAD TO RECALL THOUSANDS OF OTHER VEHICLES. I JUST CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. IT'S JUST TOO COINCIDENTAL AND NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. RECALL NUMBER 09V169000 RECALL DATE 05/19/2009 COMPONENT ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING THE INTAKE AIR DUCTS, WHICH ARE CONNECTED TO THE INTERMEDIATE RESONATOR IN THE AIR INTAKE SYSTEM OF THE ENGINE, MAY SEPARATE FROM THE RESONATOR WITH ENGINE MOVEMENT. THIS SEPARATION OCCURS DUE TO THE PREMATURE AGING OF THE MATERIAL USED IN THE INTAKE AIR DUCTS WHICH CAUSES EXCESSIVE SHRINKING. RECALL NUMBER 08V521000 RECALL DATE 10/07/2008 COMPONENT AIR BAGS SUMMARY NISSAN IS RECALLING 204,361 MY 2007-2008 ALTIMA, ALTIMA HYBRID, 350Z, 350Z ROADSTER, MY 2008 ALTIMA COUPE, ROGUE, MY 2009 MURANO, AND INFINITI MY 2007-2008 G35 SEDAN, MY 2008 G37 COUPE AND EX35 PASSENGER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH CONTINENTAL AUTOMOTIVE SYSTEMS' OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (OCS) CONTROL UNITS. A VARISTOR IN THE OCS CONTROL UNIT LOCATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION MAY HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED OUT OF SPECIFICATION. UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, THIS COULD CAUSE AN INTERRUPTION OF SIGNAL BETWEEN THE OCS AND THE AIR BAG CONTROL UNIT (ACU). CONSEQUENCE THIS COULD RESULT IN THE PASSENGER AIR BAG BEING SUPPRESSED WHICH COULD FAIL TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE PROTECTION IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH.

IN 2011, MY DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR DROPPED AS I WAS DRIVING, CAUSING ME TO ALMOST HAVE A WRECK. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WOULD COST ME CLOSE TO $700 TO REPLACE AND THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THIS ITEM. I HAVE TRIED ALL SORTS OF METHODS TO KEEP MY VISOR UP, BUT NOTHING HAS WORKED AND THE ISSUE IS GETTING WORSE. THERE ARE ALREADY 59 COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO GET NISSAN TO ISSUE A RECALL AND REPLACE? SOMEONE TO HAVE A WRECK WHILE DRIVING? *TR

WHILE GETTING IN MY CAR AFTER WORK, THE SEAT WAS ALL OF A SUDDEN UNSTABLE, LEANING TO THE REAR LEFT. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, THE BRACKET HAS BROKEN IN TWO PLACES, WHICH WILL NEED TO BE RE-WELDED. I HAD NO WARNING PRIOR TO IT ACTUALLY BREAKING. THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE, HAVE NEVER HAD ANYTHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN. VERY GLAD IT DID NOT HAPPEN WHILE I WAS DRIVING, PARTICULARLY ON A ROAD TRIP. *TR

POWER STEELING HOSE LEAKING - LOOKS THAT IT BURSTED

EXTERIOR DRIVER SIDE DOOR HANDLE BROKE. CHEAP PLASTIC FELL APART. DEALER WON'T COVER COST TO FIX.

SUN VISOR DRIVER SIDE FAILED AT @ 50,000 MILES . FALLS DOWN WHILE DRIVING. DEALER WON'T COVER REPAIR. $200 FOR A NEW ONE. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD WHICH CAUSES VISIBILITY PROBLEMS WHILE DRIVING. WELL KNOWN DEFECT. DEALER SUGGESTED USING VELCRO OR BUNGI CORDS TO FIX THE PROBLEM.

MY NISSAN MURANO HAS 122,000 MILES ON CAR AND I HAVE ALREADY SPENT A LOT OF MONEY REPAIRING CVT'S, FRONT END ISSUES AND HAD TO PURCHASE A NEW TRANSMISSION. I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE AND HAD TO DRIVE SLOW ALL THE WAY TO MY HOME. NO ACCIDENT BUT NISSAN MURANO HAS A LOT OF ISSUES WITH THE FRONT WHEELS AND TRANSMISSION.

I RECENTLY LEARNED THAT I NEED A TRANSMISSION ($4,400) FOR MY 2007 NISSAN MURANO AND I ALSO HAVE READ THAT THIS IS COMMON PROBLEM AMONG NISSANS. WHY ISN'T THERE SOME KIND OF RECALL OR HELP TO REPLACE AGAIN FOR SUCH A COMMON PROBLEM?

ENGINE STALLS TO GAIN SPEED FROM 20MPH TO 40MPH SPECIALLY DURING HOT DAYS. IT SLIPPED WHILE DRIVING BOTH, CITY STREETS AND OR HIGHWAYS. SPEED PEDAL CAN BE PRESSED COMPLETALY WITHOUT INCREASES OF SPEED.

DRIVERS SEAT TO FLOOR TRACK ATTACHMENT BROKEN ON LEFT REAR ATTACHMENT. CURRENTLY ONLY THE RIGHT REAR TRACK REMAINS ATTACHED TO THE SEAT ITSELF WHICH IN AN ACCIDENT COULD BREAK LAUNCHING THE DRIVER INTO THE BELT AND THE AIRBAG IN A FRONTAL CRASH. CURRENTLY THE MANUFACTURER NISSAN ACCEPTS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR PRODUCT DEFECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, WHICH COULD NOT BE PERFORMED UNTIL AN ABS WHEEL SENSOR WAS REPAIRED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

SUN VISORS ON BOTH THE DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS SIDE ARE LOOSE AND FALL DOWN WITHOUT THE ABILITY TO STAY UP. THIS PRESENTS VISIBILITY ISSUES AND ARE A SAFETY HAZARD. THIS IS HARDLY A NEW COMPLAINT, IS A KNOWN ISSUE TO NISSAN AND THEY SEEM UNWILLING TO FIX A SAFETY ISSUE THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR.

DRIVER'S SEAT - THE BRACKET IN THE REAR LEFT THAT SUPPORTS THE SEAT BROKE WHILE DRIVING. AIR BAGS - THE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON AND WILL NOT GO AWAY. WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN FEB. 2016, THE DEALER ASSURED ME IT WAS JUST A GLITCH IN THE DISPLAY. ENGINE - STARTED RUNNING ROUGH ABOUT A WEEK AGO, WHILE WE WERE HEADED OUT OF TOWN. CANCELLED THAT TRIP. THREW A "CYLINDER 3 MISFIRE" CODE. MY HUSBAND REPLACED THAT PLUG AND COIL AND IT CONTINUED TO RUN ROUGH. TODAY, IT OVERHEATED AND STARTED DUMPING FLUID ON THE GROUND. THE SUSPENSION IS ALSO FAILING. WHEN WE HIT A BUMP OR POTHOLE, IT FEELS LIKE THE FRONT END IS GOING TO FALL OFF. I LOVED THIS CAR WHEN WE BOUGHT IT AND WHEN IT RUNS RIGHT, BUT RIGHT NOW, I AM COMPLETELY DISGUSTED. I HAVE ONLY OWNED IT FOR TWO MONTHS. I FEEL LIKE WE WERE ROBBED AND WE AREN'T IN THE FINANCIAL STANDING TO REPLACE IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE RANDOMLY STALLED SEVERAL TIMES AND SHORTLY AFTER THE VEHICLE RANDOMLY RESTARTED EACH TIME. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 09V169000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING I STOPPED AT A RESTAURANT AND WHEN I TRIED TO ROLL MY WINDOWS DOWN, THE POWER LOCKS, WINDOWS, ALARM, SEAT ADJUSTER, BRAKE PEDAL/ACCELERATOR, REAR HATCH STOPPED WORKING. NO POWER TO THE MAIN WINDOW SWITCH PANEL. JUST STOPPED WORKING ONE DAY.

WHILE DRIVING THE POWER LOCKS, WINDOWS, SEAT ADJUSTER, ALARM AND LIFT GATE STOPPED WORKING. NO POWER TO THE MAIN WINDOW/LOCK SWITCH ON THE DRIVERS SIDE.

THE POWER DOOR LOCKS ON THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR AND TRUNK WILL NOT OPEN WHEN THE WEATHER IS WARM. THE NISSAN DEALER SAYS THE ACTUATORS ARE PROBABLY TO BLAME AND IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM. THE REPAIR IS ABOUT $600 PER LOCK. THERE IS NO KEY HOLE TO USE TO GAIN ACCESS FROM THE OUTSIDE. THE ONLY KEY ACCESS IS THE DRIVER'S DOOR. THIS CREATES A SAFETY PROBLEM, ESPECIALLY FOR TRUNK ACCESS BY ELDERLY FOLK, WHO HAVE TO CLIMB INTO THE TRUNK AREA TO OPEN THE TRUNK.

WHILE VEHICLE WAS UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY, AND AT APPROXIMATELY 60,000 MILES THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR FAILED TO STAY IN ITS STOWED/RAISED POSITION. DRIVER SIDE VISOR WOULD DROP RAPIDLY INTO FIELD OF VIEW UNEXPECTEDLY AND AT THE SLIGHTEST ROAD VIBRATION AS WE TRAVELED ALONG. MONTHS WERE SPENT DRIVING WITH LEFT HAND OCCUPIED AS A TOOL TO HOLD THE DEFECTIVE VISOR UP AND OUT OF VISUAL FIELD. WHILE HANDS AND COMPLETE ATTENTION ARE NEEDED FOR SAFE VEHICLE OPERATION, MANAGING A FAULTY SUN VISOR TO MAINTAIN FULL VIEW OF ROAD DETAILS IS A SERIOUS DISTRACTION. DISTRACTED DRIVING IS RECOGNIZED/DOCUMENTED BY A MULTITUDE OF ACCIDENTS, OFTEN OF DEADLY CONSEQUENCE. THE DEFECTIVE DRIVER'S VISOR WAS REPLACED AT OUR EXPENSE, NO WARRANTY, HOWEVER, FAILED IN THE SAME IRRITATING AND DANGEROUS MANNER IN LESS THAN TWO YEARS. FOR SAFETY SAKE I'LL MOST LIKELY REMOVE THE DEFECTIVE VISOR AND TOSS TO TRASH BEFORE A THIRD VISOR IS PURCHASED WITH SAME DANGEROUS, VISUAL-OBSTRUCTING, BUILT-IN MALFUNCTION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE FRONT DRIVER SEAT ROCKED FORWARD AND BACKWARD ON THE ROUGH TERRAIN OF THE HIGHWAY. THE SEAT LEANED TOWARDS THE DRIVER'S DOOR AND WAS UNSTABLE. THE BACK OF THE SEAT LEANED, SLID TOWARDS THE DRIVER'S DOOR, AND CAUSED DISCOMFORT TO THE DRIVER. THE SEAT WAS UNSTABLE DURING AN ANGLED POSITION. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE METAL TRACK SEPARATED PARTIALLY FROM THE FLOORBOARD TRACKING. THE DEALER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 66,910.

"TAKATA RECALL" MY AIRBAG ICON STARTED TO BLINK. CHECKED ALL CONNECTIONS AND EVERYTHING SEEMS TO CONNECTED. MY WIFE USES THIS VEHICLES WITH MY KIDS. CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY.

EVERYTIME I AM IN A SLOW SPEED MY TRUCK PUTTERS AND JERKS LIKE ITS SHIFTING INTO ANOTHER SPEED. I DONT HAVE A MANUAL. MY SEAT FEELS LIKE SOMEONE IS PULLING ON IT WHEN NOBODY IS NEAR ME. MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND MY TIRE PRESURE BATTERY KEEPS DYING ON ME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO EVENTUALLY RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE CVT AND SERVICE ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 119,000.

DRIVER'S SEAT BECAME WOBBLY AND UNSTABLE WITHOUT WARNING MAKING DRIVING QUITE DIFFICULT; DEALERSHIP STAFF INDICATED SEAT TRACK NEEDED COSTLY REPAIR. DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR DROPS DOWN UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE DRIVING AND WILL NOT STAY PUT; COST TO REPLACE WOULD BE NEARLY $200. I THOUGHT THESE ITEMS LASTED FOR THE DURATION OF THE VEHICLE.

I DIDN'T HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH IT UNTIL DROPPING MY SON OFF FOR SCHOOL ONE MORNING IN SEPTEMBER. AS I PULLED OFF FROM THE CORNER AND THEN TRIED TO MAKE AN IMMEDIATE LEFT TURN, MY CAR JUST STOPPED, STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND I HAD TO PULL AS HARD AS I COULD TO FINISH THE TURN AND NOT GET HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I WAS TERRIFIED BUT GLAD THAT MY SON WASN'T IN THE CAR AT THE TIME. FOR THE PAST FIVE MONTHS, MY NISSAN MURANO JUST STOPS OR STALLS AT RANDOM. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW SLOW OR FAST, WHETHER I'M TURNING OR NOT, IT JUST TURNS OFF. I HAVE TO QUICKLY TURN THE KEY TO "OFF" AND THEN TRY TO QUICKLY RESTART THE CAR. I'VE HAD TO STRUGGLE TO PULL THE WHEEL TO PULL THE CAR TO THE CURB JUST TO GET OUT OF THE WAY OF TRAFFIC. I'VE HAD MY KIDS IN THE CAR AND IT'S HAPPENED WITH MY HUSBAND AS WELL, AND HE'S DRIVEN ON THE EXPRESSWAY (WHICH WE WILL NO LONGER TRY WITH THAT CAR). NO HELP FROM NISSAN OR NISSAN DEALERSHIPS - JUST GIVEN THE RUN AROUND ABOUT VERY UNSAFE CAR.

WHEN STARTING THE CAR FROM A PARKED POSITIONED AFTER RUNNING A FEW ERRANDS DURING A SLIGHT ICE/SNOW FALL MID-MORNING AND WIPERS DID NOT MOVE WHEN ACTIVATED. I TURNED THE WIPERS ON HIGH AND LISTENED FOR THE MOTOR WHICH WAS RUNNING BUT IT SEEMED WIPER WERE DETACHED. I SPENT 2 DAYS DRIVING TO AND FROM WORK AT NIGHT WITH RAIN AND SNOW FALL EACH WAY. I WAS DANGEROUS BUT I COULD NOT CALL IN. MY FAMILY AND I HAVE BEEN LOOKING UP THIS ISSUE AND APPARENTLY IT IS VERY COMMON FOR MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF NISSANS TO HAVE THIS LINKAGE BRAKE.

FOLLOWING VEHICLE BEING IN FOR COOLANT SYSTEM REPAIR, I ENTERED VEHICLE DRIVER SIDE AND FOUND THE SEAT MOVED FORWARD TO THE EXTREME, I MOVED IT BACK AND SAT DOWN, RIGHT AWAY I NOTICED THE SEAT DID NOT FEEL STABLE, WAS UNSURE IF THIS WAS RELATED TO THE RECENT WORK, BEGAN DRIVING VEHICLE, WENT A SHORT DISTANCE, DRIVER SEAT WAS LISTING TO THE DRIVER SIDE OF VEHICLE, AND WAS UNSTABLE. I RETURNED IMMEDIATELY TO REPAIR SHOP, OF COURSE LATE IN DAY AND CLOSING TIME. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD LOOK AT NEXT DAY, LOW AND BEHOLD, THE BAD NEWS BEGINS ARRIVING ABOUT MIDMORNING- THE SEAT TRACK IS BROKEN AND WILL COST A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF MONEY TO REPAIR. DURING MY DRIVE BACK TO REPAIR SHOP NEXT DAY, THE SEAT FEELS VERY UNSTABLE AND WOULD NOT RECOMMEND DRIVING THIS VEHICLE ANY LENGTH OF TIME; CREATES A SIGNIFICANT FEELING THAT CONTROL OF VEHICLE IS NOT SECURE, DUE TO SEAT INSTABILITY. AREN'T SEAT SUPPOSE TO LAST THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE, WHAT IS ALL THAT MONEY PAYING FOR?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR DOOR LATCH WOULD NOT OPEN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 138,000.

I WAS RECENTLY TOLD THAT I NEED TO REPLACE MY "MOTOR MOUNTS." MY ENGINE HAS ALWAYS SHIFTED WHENEVER I PUT THE VEHICLE INTO DRIVE. IT HAS BEEN LIKE THIS FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS NOW.

ALL MOTOR MOUNTS AND TRANSMISSION MOUNTS FAILED AT 65,000 AND BROUGHT INTO REPAIR AT 74,000 MILES. EXTREME SCARY VIBRATION WHEN DRIVING. THUMP AND CLUNKING AND BANGING SOUND ON ENGINE WHEN DEPRESSING THE GAS PEDAL. VERY EXPENSIVE $2,900.00 REPAIR AT NISSAN DEALER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SHIFTED INDEPENDENTLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNDETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. UPDATED 02/02/16*LJ *TR

I'VE ONLY BEEN DRIVING MY 2007 NISSAN MURANO CAR THAT I RECENTLY PURCHASED USED FOR 3 WEEKS. I WAS DRIVING ON THE ROAD AND SUDDENLY MY CAR STARTED JERKING, SHAKING, SMOKING FROM UNDER THE HOOD THEN IT ABRUPTLY STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC ON A BUSY ROAD. THE CAR SHUT DOWN AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN. I CALLED THE POLICE, THEY BLOCKED THE LANE I WAS IN AND CALLED A LOCAL TOW TRUCK SERVICE THAT I HAD TO PAY FOR OUT OF POCKET BECAUSE IT WAS AN EMERGENCY DANGEROUS SITUATION TO GET IT OFF THE ROAD AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND THE POLICE COULD NOT CHANCE TO WAIT FOR MY INSURANCE COMPANY TO SEND A TOW SERVICE.

POWER STEERING FLUID LEAK. HAVE TO REPLACE FLUID EVERY WEEK. IF FLUID RUNS OUT WHILE DRIVING, WILL LOOSE CONTROL OF AUTO AND CRASH. TOOK AUTO TO CLAY NISSAN OF NEWTON AND THEY COULD NOT FIND THE LEAK, YET EACH WEEK I HAVE TO TOP UP THE STEERING FLUID. THIS STARTED ON 06/01/2015 AND I TOP UP EACH WEEK.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP AND FALLS DOWN INTO THE FIELD OF VISION OF THE DRIVER. THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT AND NISSAN WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE EQUIPMENT IS DEFECTIVE AND SHOULD BE REPLACED UNDER RECALL.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2007 NISSAN MURANO WHICH I PURCHASED ON 5/5/2015. I FELT COMFORTABLE MOVING FORWARD WITH THE PURCHASE BASED ON THE CARFAX WHICH STATED NO ACCIDENT / DAMAGE REPORTED , NO TOTAL LOSS, NO STRUCTURAL DAMAGE, NO AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. AFTER, GOING TO A LOCAL GAS STATION AND PURCHASING THE REQUIRED OCTANE. I PULLED OFF INTO TRAFFIC SAFELY AND THE CAR WOULD NOT BUDGE. TERRIFIED THAT I WOULD GET HIT BY ON COMING TRAFFIC, I JUMPED INTO ACTION AND PUT THE CAR INTO REVERSE. I LET OUT HUGE SIGH OF RELIEF BECAUSE, I WAS ABLE TO MOVE IN REVERSE. I CAUGHT MY BREATH AND NOTICED THAT THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON. I TOOK MY CAR TOO A LOCAL AUTOZONE AND THE CODES THAT I RECEIVED ARE ALL TRANSMISSION CODES. AFTER BEING INSTRUCTED TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED BY A AUTHORIZED NISSAN DEALER, IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT I NEED A NEW CVT TRANSMISSION, TRANSFER CASE RESEALED. BASED ON NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE CVT TRANSMISSION AND THE SAFETY ISSUES. I DEEM MY CAR UNSAFE AND NISSAN SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE TO MAKE ANY AND ALL VEHICLES MANUFACTURED.

AS I WAS DRIVING IN TRAFFIC (APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH), I APPLIED THE BRAKES AT THE STOPLIGHT AND THERE WAS A SUDDEN LOUD SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE. WHEN I APPLIED THE GAS, THERE WAS NO POWER, BUT THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO REV UP. WITH CARS FLYING BY ME, THIS WAS TERRIFYING FOR ME AND MY GRANDDAUGHTERS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY MISDIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM, TWICE. OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS, MY MURANO BEGAN TO RANDOMLY SKIP/HESITATE WITH STANDARD RPM AND EXTREMELY HIGH RPM. THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP HAD MY CAR FOR OVER A MONTH, SAYING THEY HAD REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION. THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THE "PROBLEM " IS THERE, STILL THERE. ALSO THERE IS NO GUARANTEE/WARRANTY ON WARRANTED WORK. I NOW HAVE NOTHING.AND SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR THAT IT WILL FAIL IN TRAFFIC.
