2005 NISSAN MURANO Complaints

FAILURE OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR ON 2005 NISSAN MURANO STAYING IN A FIXED POSITION. THE SUN VISOR DOES NOT STAY IN THE SET POSITION AND TILTS DOWN FULLY AND BLOCKS THE DRIVERS FIELD OF VIEW WHEN DRIVING. THIS CREATES A DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUE OF DRIVERS OF THE NISSAN MURANO. *TR

2005 NISSAN MURANO - FRONT DRIVER SEAT BROKEN . I WAS DRIVING AND IN THE PROCESS OF MAKING A LEFT TURN WHEN I FELT MY CAR SEAT COME LOOSE.

APPROXIMATELY MAY/JUNE OF 2009, I WAS UNABLE TO LOCK AND UNLOCK DRIVER'S DOOR OF MY 2005 NISSAN MURANO WITH KEY FOB. WHEN I ASKED IF THIS COULD BE REPAIRED BY LANDERS NISSAN, SOUTHAVEN, MS, I WAS TOLD COST OF $70 JUST TO LOOK AT PROBLEM. IN MAY OF 2010, I NOTICED THAT THE PROBLEM NOW INCLUDES FRONT PASSENGER DOOR AND REAR HATCH LOCK. THE PROBLEM NOW OCCURS APPROXIMATELY 80% OF TIME WITH PASSENGER AND HATCH; 100% OF TIME WITH DRIVER'S DOOR. I HAVE TO PLACE KEY IN LOCK TO LOCK AND UNLOCK DRIVER'S DOOR. (NO DAMAGE OR ACCIDENT TO VEHICLE SINCE PURCHASED NEW IN APRIL 2005). *TR

MY DRIVER'S SEAT SUDDENLY BECAME MORE LIKE A ROCKING CHAIR. WHEN I ACCELERATE I TILT BACKWARD LETTING MY FOOT COME SLIGHTLY OFF THE PEDAL.

WHAT WOULD HAPPEN SHOULD I GET IN AN ACCIDENT AND THE ENTIRE SEAT COME LOOSE ? *TR

DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON. I HAVE TAKEN THIS CAR IN TO APPROXIMATELY 16 TIMES TO 7 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS IN FOUR DIFFERENT STATES. THEY SAID THEY REPLACED DIFFERENT PARTS EACH TIME BUT WITHIN FOUR TO SIX WEEKS THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AGAIN. THE LAST DEALERSHIP I TOOK IT TO IN COLUMBIA TN SAID THAT NISSAN HAD TOLD THEM TO REPLACE THE FRONT WIRING HARNESS BUT THEY REFUSED TO DO IT. THEY SAID IT WOULD TAKE THEM TOO LONG AND DID NOT WANT TO DO IT. *TR

ALL 5 OF THE DOOR LOCKS ON MY 2005 NISSAN MURANO HAVE FAILED WITHIN THE LAST YEAR. I REPLACED THE DRIVER'S DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY WHEN THE LOCK WOULD NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK WITH THE KEY FOB OR BUTTON ON THE DOOR. SINCE THEN ALL OF THE OTHER DOOR LOCKS, INCLUDING THE LIFT GATE, HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY, SUCH AS A FIRE, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO UNLOCK ALL THE DOORS SO PASSENGERS COULD ESCAPE. IF I WERE BEING STALKED, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO LOCK ALL THE DOORS QUICKLY. THE DOOR LOCK PROBLEM THAT I HAVE DESCRIBED IS BEING EXPERIENCED BY 2004 - 2010 NISSAN MURANO AND MAXIMA OWNERS AROUND THE COUNTRY. NISSAN NEEDS TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND FIX THEM! *TR
