2006 NISSAN MURANO Complaints

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR DOES NOT STAY IN PLACE. IT DOES NOT HOLD IN PLACE AT ALL. BLOCKING VISIBILITY ALL THE TIME. IT IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURING FAULT AND A SAFETY CONCERN. NISSAN MUST FIX THIS PROBLEM AT THEIR COST. *TR

2006 NISSAN MURANO DRIVER & PASSENGER SUN VISOR DOES NOT STAY IN PLACE. THE MECHANISM FOR THE SUN VISOR MALFUNCTIONS. WHEN PLACED IN THE UP, LOCKED IN POSITION (NOT IN USE) IT PULLS AWAY AND HANGS LOOSELY. WHEN PLACED DOWNWARD TO BLOCK THE SUN THE VISOR DOES NOT STAY IN A LOCKED AND ANGLED POSITION. IT HAS SUDDENLY DROPPED AND OBSTRUCTED MY VIEW. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND MAY RESULT IN AN AUTO COLLISION. I LIVE IN COLORADO WHERE THE MAJORITY OF OUR DAYS ARE SUNNY. I AM OFTEN FORCED TO SUPPORT THE SUN VISOR BY HOLDING IT IN PLACE WITH MY LEFT HAND WHILE DRIVING ONLY WITH MY RIGHT HAND. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN FOR ME, AS A DRIVER SHOULD HAVE BOTH HANDS ON THE WHEEL WHILE DRIVING, I WEAR SUNGLASSES HOWEVER, THE SUNS GLARE IS OFTEN SO INTENSE THAT THE VISOR IS NECESSARY ESPECIALLY DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC WHEN I AM DRIVING WEST TOWARDS THE SUNSET. THE LAST TIME MY VISOR MALFUNCTIONED WAS YESTERDAY, 10/1/10 WHILE COMMUTING IN HEAVY RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC (5PM MST). NISSAN CORPORATION SHOULD TAKE ACTION TO RECALL & REPLACE THE SUN VISOR MECHANISM. *TR

2006 NISSAN MURANO DRIVERS SEAT BROKE AND HAS SEPARATED FROM THE TRACK, THEREFORE ALLOWING THE SEAT TO TILT SIDE TO SIDE WITH ANY TURN. NISSAN DOES NOT WANT TO ADMIT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE SEAT BUT APPARENTLY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS SEAT BREAKING IN THE MURANO. I HAVE ASKED THEM TO SPLIT THE COST WITH ME AND THEY REFUSE TO DO SO. WITH ALL THE INFO OUT ON THE INTERNET ASSOCIATED WITH THIS PROBLEM I THINK THEY SHOULD BE FORCED TO DO A RECALL AND ADMIT THE PROBLEM. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 MURANO AND THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR IS NOW FALLING DOWN WHILE DRIVING SO VISIBILITY IS MY COMPLAINT EITHER CHEWING GUM OR VELCRO WILL HOLD IT UP. OUR LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP WANTS $400.28 FOR A NEW VISOR.......! ITS JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THE DRIVERS OF SUCH VEHICLES GET KILLED JUST BECAUSE OF A SUNVISOR.........THE LAWYERS ARE STARTING TO LINE UP WITH THEIR HANDS OUT..GET READY NISSAN!!!!!! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD THE SQUEAKING NOISE AND A POP SOUND FROM THE DRIVER'S SEAT.

LEFT AND RIGHT SUN VISORS ON 2006 NISSAN MURANO BECAME FLOPPY/DROOPY (I.E. WOULD NOT STAY IN POSITION) IN 2008. VERY DANGEROUS AS THEY DROOP DOWN INTO THE EYE'S OF DRIVER OR PASSENGER AND WON'T HOLD POSITION WHEN NEEDED TO BLOCK OUT SUN. *TR

DRIVER'S SEAT LEFT SIDE LINK AND MOTOR ASSEMBLIES HAVE FAILED RESULTING IN SEAT TIPPING SIDEWAYS FROM LEFT TO RIGHT WHEN TURNING RIGHT. THE SHOULDER AND LAP BELT LOCKS TO THE NOW MOVING SEAT RESULTING IN AN UNSAFE CONDITION SHOULD THE VEHICLE BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. *TR

DRIVERS SEAT ON MY NISSAN MURANO HAS BROKEN LOOSE FROM THE FRAME. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO MY SEAT (DRIVERS SEAT) SUDDENLY SLOPED INTO THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. PULLING OVER I DISCOVERED THAT THE BOTTOM LEFT REAR CORNER OF MAIN SEAT BRACKET BROKE OFF IN TWO PLACES. THE PROBLEM WAS CORRECTED BY HAVING A BODY SHOP WELD THE PIECES TOGETHER WITH ADDITIONAL SUPPORT METAL. *TR
