2005 NISSAN MURANO Complaints

I HAVE A BROKEN SEAT TRACK THAT WHEN I STOP IT PUT ME IN TO THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED IT WAS REPLACED ON AUGUST 19 2011 AND NISSAN PAYED $500 TOWARD THE REPLACEMENT AND NOW IT HAS BROKEN AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR AS SEEN ON THE NISSAN MESSAGE BOARDS.

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON JANUARY 2,2016 I HEARD A LOUD NOISE FROM MY SEAT AND THEN A SUDDEN DROP IN THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE SEAT. UPON PULLING OVER I NOTICED THAT THE SEAT WAS UNATTACHED ON THE REAR LEFT SIDE. I TOOK IT TO MY REPAIR SHOP, THEY REMOVED THE SEAT TO FIND THAT THE BRACKET WAS COMPLETELY SHEARED OFF. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT BEFORE. HE CALLED THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND HE WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS TSB'S ON THE DRIVERS SEAT BUT NO RECALL STATING THAT THERE WERE NO SERIOUS ACCIDENTS AS A RESULT OF THIS DEFECT BUT THAT WAS ALL AND WAS TOLD THAT WE COULD BUY THE PARTS FROM THEM BUT THAT IT WAS ALL ON ME TO PAY TO HAVE IT REPAIRED

THE FRONT BRACKET OF THE DRIVER SEAT SEEMS TO HAVE BROKE AND THE SEAT LIFTS TO THE SIDE WHILE I'M DRIVING. IT ALSO LIFTS A LITTLE WHILE I GET IN THE CAR. SAME PROBLEM DOCUMENTED HERE HTTP://WWW.NISSANMURANO.ORG/FORUMS/66-PROBLEMS/1548-DRIVER-S-SEAT-30.HTML

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER WITH THE CHARGING WARNING AND BRAKE WARNING LAMPS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALTERNATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 05V319000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000. UPDATED 01/20/16*LJ *TR

DRIVER SEAT BACK LEFT BRACKET CONNECTED TO THE FRAME IS BROKEN. MY DRIVER SEAT NOW SWAYS BACK AND FORTH WHILE DRIVING AND IS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE ON MY BACK. IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD WHILE DRIVING. THIS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM THAT NISSAN SHOULD FIX BY ENSURING A RECALL FOR THEIR COSTUMERS.

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR DOES NOT STAY IN ITS PLACE. IT CAN AND DOES FALL OUT OF THE RETAINING MECHANISM, CAUSING DRIVER'S VIEW TO BE INSTANTLY OBSTRUCTED.

DRIVING DOWN HWY AND CAR STARTED JUMPING, WHINNING AND THEN CAR LOCKED UP.I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER ON SIDE OF HWY.I SMELLED SMOKE AND GOT OUT.CALLED WRECKER .THEY TOWED TO SHOP.. I NOW HAVE A CAR PAYMENT BUT NO CAR.ESTIMATE FOR REPAIR 4,000.00 FOR NEW TRANSMISSION.

WHILE BOARDING MY CAR DRIVER SEAT BROKE AND ALSO THE DAMAGE TRIGGERED THE AIR BAG LIGHT TO POP SINCE THE DRIVER SEAT IS LINKED TO AIR BAG.

I WAS DRIVING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY, WHEN THE CAR STALLED AND HESITATED. I SAW THE BATTERY LIGHT AND THE BRAKE LIGHT COME ON, SO I DROVE THE CAR SLOWLY DOWN THE STREET IN FRONT OF MY APARTMENT, AND PARKED IT THERE. I LATER READ THAT THIS WAS COMMON ON NISSAN MURANOS, MODEL YEARS 2003 THROUGH 2007, AND A RECALL CAMPAIGN, 05V319000 WAS STARTED.

THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR IN MY 2005 NISSAN MURANO DOES NOT STAY UP AND IS CAUSING A DRIVING HAZARD. I HAVE IT HELD WITH VELCRO RIGHT NOW, BUT IT DOES NOT WORD WELL AND WHILE DRIVING WILL FALL AND BLOCK THE ENTIRE FRONT VIEW. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND IT'S VERY DANGEROUS.
