2007 NISSAN MURANO Complaints

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 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.

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.

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.

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.
