2007 NISSAN MURANO Complaints

DRIVER SEAT BRACKET/TRACK BROKE SUDDENLY. LEFT REAR CORNER NOW UNATTACHED AND SEAT IS WOBBLY AND NOT SECURED. *TR

DRIVER SIDE VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP, BLINDING THE DRIVER OR SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCING VISIBILITY. *TR

I OWN A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLE MISFIRING. BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP. TOLD THAT I HAVE TO REPLACE THE FUEL SENDING UNIT. GAS GAUGE WILL SHOW FUEL IS EMPTY BUT ITS NOT. GAUGE WILL GO UP AND DOWN. *TR

ON 2/23/14, I NOTICE THERE WAS WHAT APPEARED TO BE OIL LEAKING FROM MY TRUCK. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ON 2/26/14, IT WAS THE IT WAS THE PRESSURE HOLES LEAKING WHICH HAVE CAUSED OTHER PROBLEMS. RACK AND PINION (R) SIDE, REPLACE FUEL SENDER TWO PARTS. SEPTEMBER OF 2013, I HAD TO HAVE BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT CONTROL ARM REPAIR. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AND THE CUSTOMER SHOULD NOT HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF EXPENSE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED INACCURATE FUEL LEVEL READINGS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS FOUND THAT THE FUEL SENDING UNIT HAD FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000. *TR

THE FUEL GAUGE/SENSOR IS NOT READING PROPERLY. IT WILL SHOW THE TANK AS EMPTY EVEN WHEN IT IS NOT. I HAVE TRIED TO CONTACT NISSAN DIRECTLY, HOWEVER THEY WILL NOT ADDRESS THE PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE THREE OTHER MODELS OF CAR THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED FROM THE SAME YEAR DUE TO THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY HAVE ALSO ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE BUT REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING TO REMEDY IT ON MY VEHICLE. THIS CONCERNS ME AS IN READING OTHER COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE EXCEPT THAT THE VEHICLE CAN STALL WHILE IN MOTION CREATING A VERY UNSAFE DRIVING EXPERIENCE. *TR

I GOT INTO MY PARKED CAR AND AS SOON I SAT IN THE SEAT, THE BACK LEFT SUPPORT OF THE SEAT BASE BROKE AND DROPPED ABOUT 6 INCHES. THE SEAT NOW ROCKS WHEN YOU SIT IN IT. THIS IS A VERY BIG SAFETY HAZARD FOR DRIVING AS THERE IS NO STABILITY IN THE SEAT AND MOVES AROUND TURNS AND OVER BUMPS. IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING WHEN THIS HAPPENED THERE SURELY WOULD HAVE BEEN A CRASH. *TR

I GOT INTO MY CAR TO DRIVE SOMEWHERE, AND NOTICED THAT MY SEAT WAS LOOSE AND SHIFTING BACK AND FORTH - FROM SIDE TO SIDE. I THOUGHT THAT THERE WAS A LOOSE BOLT, AND SO I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP ON 2/21, AND I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A BROKEN LIFTER ASSEMBLY - AND THAT THE REPAIR WOULD BE $625. I IMMEDIATELY ASKED IF THERE WAS A RECALL BECAUSE THE DEFINITELY APPEARED TO BE A "SAFETY ISSUE", AND I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOT. I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH ON LINE, AND I SEE WHERE THIS IS AND HAS BEEN A VERY COMMON COMPLAINT FOR SEVERAL YEARS, FOR WHAT APPEARS TO BE FOR MODELS 2003 THRU 2007, AT LEAST. I FOUND PAGES AND PAGES OF COMPLAINTS FROM MANY PEOPLE. WE ALL HAVE THE SAME OPINION THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT, AND SHOULD BE REPAIRED AT THE EXPENSE OF NISSAN. I HAVE OWNED MANY DIFFERENT MODELS OF CARS IN MY LIFETIME, AND A SEAT BREAKING IN THIS MANNER HAS NEVER HAPPENED. MY HUSBAND IS A FIREFIGHTER, AND HIS FIRST RESPONSE WAS CONCERN THAT THE WAY THE SEAT SHIFTS NOW, COULD CAUSE A SEATBELT TO INJURE OR POSSIBLY DECAPITATE A PERSON DURING A CAR CRASH. HE HAS SEEN MANY UNUSUAL THINGS HAPPEN IN HIS CAREER, SO I DON'T BELIEVE THIS IS FAR FETCHED FROM THE REALITY OF SOMETHING TERRIBLE TO HAPPEN TO A PERSON DRIVING THEIR CAR WITH A BROKEN DRIVER'S SEAT. I WAS PREPARED TO PAY FOR A BOLT TO BE REPLACED, NOT TO HAVE TO PAY FOR MY SEAT TO BE COMPLETELY REPAIRED, IN ORDER TO KEEP ME AND MY FAMILY SAFE. A SEAT SHOULD BE MADE TO ENDURE THE DAY IN AND DAY OUT OF THE WEIGHT OF PEOPLE - LARGE AND SMALL, FOR THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. I AM UNDER 200LBS, AND MY HUSBAND IS 250LBS. WE BOUGHT THE CAR WITH THE MINDSET THAT IT WOULD BE STRONG AND DURABLE TO LAST FOR MANY, MANY YEARS TO COME, WITHOUT THE WORRIES THAT OUR SEATS COULD BREAK SO EASILY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

THE REAR MOUNT POINT FOR THE DRIVER'S SEAT HAS SNAPPED. THIS CAUSES THE DRIVER'S SEAT TO BECOME UNSTABLE AND ROCK BACK AND FORTH WHILE DRIVING. *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVING WELL AND THE FUEL SENSOR WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP. THE LOWER CONTROL ARMS WERE REPLACED AT THAT TIME, HOWEVER THE FUEL SENSOR WAS NOT AS IT WAS AN ADDITIONAL EXPENSE WE COULD NOT PAY FOR OUT OF POCKET. THESE ARE BOTH KNOWN PROBLEMS TO NISSAN AND HAVE ALREADY BEEN RECALLED ON OTHER SUV'S OF THE SAME MODEL YEAR. IN SPEAKING TO NISSAN THERE IS NOTHING THEY ARE WILLING TO DO TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE OR TO REIMBURSE US FOR THE REPAIR ALREADY MADE. *TR
