2016 NISSAN MURANO Complaints

THREE TIMES IN TWO WEEKS I HAD CRUISE SET AT 49MPH AND SET INTELLIGENT CRUISE CONTROL RANGE TO THREE CAR LENGTHS AHEAD OF ME. ALL THREE TIMES THE VEHICLE THAT WAS AT LEASE 6-7 CAR LENGTHS AHEAD HAD MADE A RIGHT TURN AND WAS OUT OF MY LANE WHEN SUDDENLY THE CRUISE SHUTS DOWN AND THE AUTO BRAKES ARE ACTIVATED HARD ENOUGH TO LURCH ME FORWARD IN MY SEAT, THE THIRD TIME I ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED. TOOK TO THE DEALER WHO OF COURSE COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND WAS TOLD NOT TO USE CRUISE CONTROL AROUND TOWN!!! I HAVE DOCUMENT ION INDICATING TIME AND DATES OF OCCURRENCES..

CAR HESITATION. I FIND THAT AFTER I AM STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND THEN I PULL OUT TO THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGES (STOPPING AGAIN WAITING FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC), THE GAS PEDAL DOES NOTHING WHEN I TRY TO MAKE THE TURN. I HAVE TO RELEASE THE PEDAL AND PUSH IT AGAIN, USUALLY IN A HURRY SO I DON'T GET HIT BY ONCOMING CARS. THE PROBLEM IS NOT CONSISTENT. PRETTY SCARY WHEN YOU EXPECT THE CAR TO MOVE AND IT DOES NOT. SO IT APPEARS THAT THE PROBLEM BECOMES EVIDENT WHEN I MAKE A SMALL MOVEMENT, STOP AND THEN GO AGAIN.

THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR CONSISTENTLY FAILS TO RECOGNIZE THE 150 POUND PASSENGER RIDING IN THE CAR. IF, WHILE STARTING THE CAR, THE FRONT PASSENGER MOVES IN ANY FASHION, THE AIR BAG INDICATOR REMAINS ON, INDICATING THE AIR BAG IS "OFF". NO MATTER WHAT THE PASSENGER DOES, INCLUDING PUTTING THE SEAT BELT ON OR OFF, ONCE THE AIR BAG SENSOR IS ON, IT WILL NOT GO OFF. I MUST THEN TURN THE CAR OFF, ASK THE PASSENGER TO HOLD PERFECTLY STILL, THEN RESTART THE ENGINE. IF THE PASSENGER REMAINS PERFECTLY STILL WHILE THE CAR IS TURNED ON, THE AIR BAG SENSOR WILL TURN OFF, INDICATING THE AIR BAG IS "ON". THIS OCCURS EVERYTIME I START THE CAR. IF I DO NOT TAKE THIS VERY SPECIFIC SET OF STEPS, AND I SUBSEQUENTLY FAIL TO NOTICE THE INDICATOR REMAINS ON (AIR BAG OFF), MY PASSENGER IS IN DANGER WHILE DRIVING. IF THE PASSENGER ENTERS THE CAR WHILE THE ENGINE IS ALREADY RUNNING, I GET NO INDICATION WHATSOEVER FROM THE AIR BAG SENSOR. FOR EXAMPLE, IS IT ACTIVATED OR NOT? I HAVE ZERO CONFIDENCE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR.
