Very dangerous vehicle. Car looses acceleration power.... Last week driving on hwy at 55 MPH, car suddenly deacellerates, almost like car was suddenly in low gear. Depressed accellerator, and nothing. Hard to turn car ignition off and restart to clear problem. 3rd time in two weeks. Don't trust Nissan diagnostics or dealer to be haonest about problem. Had previous problem with front end differential housing cracked. Not driven like a jeep, but cracking? Suspect inferior design or metals.

I have had nothing but trouble out of my NISSAN MURANO since I purchased it. It has sadden me to the fact that I would not puchase another Nissan in my life time nor will my family.
