2007 NISSAN MURANO Complaints

MY DRIVERS SIDE VISOR HAS STARTED FLOPPING DOWN INTO MY LINE OF VISION. WHETHER IT'S FORWARD TOWARD THE WINDSHIELD OR UP AGAINST THE ROOF'S INTERIOR. IT'S GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AND IS A SERIOUS CONCERN, ESPECIALLY WHEN MY 6'0 HUSBAND IS DRIVING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE AND EXHAUST FUMES WERE PRESENT INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR EXHAUST MANIFOLD HAD CRACKED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 96,000.

THE LEFT SIDE OF DRIVER'S SEAT IS COMPLETELY OF THE TRACK/FRAME CAUSING SEAT TO NOT BE SECURED AND ALSO CAUSING SEAT TO ROCK BACK AND FORTH. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR HAS BECOME LOOSE AND WILL FALL WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING. IT HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY. THIS IS UNSAFE FOR DRIVERS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY. OUR OTHER OPTION IS TO REMOVE IT, THEN YOU RISK THE SUN IN YOUR EYES DRIVING EAST/WEST. DEALERSHIP WANTS TO CHARGE OVER 400.00 TO REPLACE THIS ITEM. IT SHOULD BE VIEWED AS A SAFETY CONCERN. *TR

3 YEAR OLD CHILD WAS APPROPRIATELY BUCKLED INTO CAR SEAT IN THE BACK SEAT. SHE MANAGED TO REACH THE SEAT BELT AND PUT IT AROUND HER NECK. HER OLDER BROTHER NOTICED THIS AND STARTED YELLING AT MOTHER WHO WAS DRIVING. MOTHER PULLED OVER AND TRIED TO REMOVE THE SEAT BELT BUT IT HAD LOCKED. MOTHER FLAGGED DOWN PASSERBYS. FORTUNATELY, THIS OCCURRED ON A US MILITARY BASE OVERSEAS WHERE FIRST AID KITS ARE REQUIRED IN ALL VEHICLES INCLUDING TRAUMA SHEARS. THE TRAUMA SHEARS WERE USED TO CUT THE SEAT BELT AWAY FROM HER NECK. THE CHILD DID SUSTAIN BRUISING AND INJURIES TO BOTH THE FRONT AND BACK OF HER NECK, BUT NO LONG TERM PROBLEMS. THIS IS A PHYSICIAN WHO IS FILING THE REPORT AS I EVALUATED THE CHILD FOR HER INJURIES. *TR

TROUBLE ACCELERATING ACCOMPANIED BY LOUD SCREECHING NOISE, FOLLOWED BY LOUD CLUNKING. DIAGNOSED AS TRANSFER CASE SEVERELY CRACKED AT 79000 MILES. 2 NISSAN DEALERS AGREED THIS WAS A DEFECTIVE PART WITH HISTORY OF PROBLEMS, BUT NOT RECALLED, AND ONLY WARRANTEED TO 60,000 MILES. RIDICULOUS. ABOUT A 3300$ REPAIR. *JS

WHILE DRIVING THE DRIVER SEATS BRACKET BROKE. VERY UNSAFE. SEAT WOBBLED AND WHEN COMING TO A STOP THE SEAT WENT FORWARD. THIS IS INSANE FOR S SEAT TO JUST SNAP WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. AT 65000 MILES A SEAT SHOULD NOT JUST BRAKE LIKE THIS DID AND WHEN I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER THEY REFUSED TO FIX BECAUSE THE WARRANTY ON THE CAR WAS EXPIRED OVER MILEAGE. THIS SHOULD BE A NISSAN RECALL WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS THEY HAVE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. TO FIX THIS SEAT WAS 1,000.00. SHAME ON YOU NISSAN. *TR

1. THIS IS SAFETY HAZARD AND MY BIGGEST CONCERN DRIVER SEAT, LEFT BRACKET BROKE. I WAS TOLD BY NISSAN DEALER THIS IS COMMON PROBLEM BUT NOT COVERED BY MY PLATINUM EXTENDED WARRANTY WHICH I PURCHASED AT TEAM NISSAN IN OXNARD, CA I WAS ALSO TOLD THE ENTIRE SEAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE SEEN ONLINE THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PART BREAK. I WOULD HATE TO THINK ABOUT HOW THIS SEAT MIGHT BREAK COMPLETELY LOOSE IN A CRASH CAUSING THE DRIVER TO BE PROPELLED OUT THE FRONT WINDSHIELD & POSSIBLY KILLED. NISSAN NEEDS TO RECALL & FIX THIS PART! 2. PASSENGER FRONT WINDOW GOES UP & DOWN RANDOMLY. .I HAVE TO KEEP THE WINDOWS LOCKED SO IT DOESN'T GO DOWN MAKING MY CAR VULNERABLE FOR THEFT BECAUSE MORE THAN A FEW TIMES I CAME OUT IN THE MORNING TO FIND IT DOWN. ALSO, WHEN TRYING TO PUT IT UP, ONCE IT CLOSES IT THEN ROLLS RIGHT BACK DOWN. 3. ELECTRIC DOOR LOCKS SOMETIMES DON'T ALL LOCK WITH KEY FOB. USUALLY DRIVER DOOR & SOMETIMES OTHER DOORS DON'T LOCK WHEN USING KEY FOB. I HAVE TO CHECK ALL FOUR DOORS EVERY TIME I LOCK THE CAR. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON FOUR LANE BLVD THE ENGINE SUDDEN CUT OFF AT A MAJOR INTERSECTION. I WAS LUCKY NOT TO BE HIT BY TRUCK BEHIND ME, I HAD NO PRIOR WARNING NO ENGINE LIGHT, ROUGH IDLE ETC. THE 2007 NISSAN MURANO SUDDEN ENGINE CUT OFF NEED TO BE INVESTIGATE BECAUSE THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A FATALITY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE DRIVER SEAT REAR SEAT LIFTER BRACKET, PART 87473-CA00A BROKE. THE PART HAS BEEN REDESIGNED AND IS NOW PART 87473CA01A. WHILE THE PART WAS BROKE THE SEAT HAD A LOT OF MOVEMENT AND TILTED TOWARD THE DRIVER DOOR. IT COST $579.48 TO REPAIR. *TR
