THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR UNEXPECTEDLY DROPS, BLOCKING THE DRIVER'S VIEW. FOR ME IT COMPLETELY OBSCURES MY VIEW. THIS WILL HAPPEN RANDOMLY. THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER THE REPAIR (REPAIR COSTS IN EXCESS OF $435 QUOTED TO ME). I HAVE READ PAGES AND PAGES OR ONLINE FORUMS WITH PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH 2003 MODEL YEAR THROUGH 2006. NISSAN DOES NOT OFFER A REPAIR OR RECALL AT THIS TIME. *TR

2006 NISSAN MURANO. PROBLEM BEGAN ~40K MILEAGE. DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR WILL NO LONGER STAY IN UP POSITION FOR MORE THAN FEW MINUTES OF DRIVING, LESS IF ANY BUMPS IN THE ROAD. THE VISOR CANNOT BE SET TO HOLD ANY POSITION OTHER THAN VERTICAL AT 90 DEGREES, CAUSING SEVERE DIMINISHED VISIBILITY. VISOR WILL DROP WITHOUT WARNING CREATING HAZARD. REPAIR ESTIMATE IS $400. HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO LOCATE USED PART FOR REPLACEMENT. VISOR TEMPORARILY HELD IN PLACE WITH PACKAGE SEALING TAPE, BUT THIS TOO IS A HAZARD IF NEEDING TO USE VISOR TO SHIELD DIRECT SUNLIGHT. HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FOUND ON INTERNET SEARCH. APPEARS TO BE FAULTY PART FROM NISSAN. SEVERE ACCIDENTS ARE ONLY A MATTER OF TIME. *TR

I OWN A 2006 NISSAN MURANO. RECENTLY, MY DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT HOLD A DOWNWARD ADJUSTMENT. IT STAYS (FOR NOW) IN THE UPWARD POSITION BUT WHEN I PUT IT DOWN TO BLOCK THE SUN IT DANGLES, IS THE BEST WAY I CAN DESCRIBE IT. I HAVE TO USE ONE HAND TO HOLD IT IN THE POSITION NEEDED TO BLOCK THE SUN. IT IS EITHER ALL THE WAY UP OR ALL THE WAY DOWN, NO POSITION IN BETWEEN. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR TWO REASONS. TAKING ONE HAND OFF THE STEERING WHEEL IS A BIG SAFETY HAZARD AND NOT USING THE VISOR WHEN I HAVE TO USE TWO HANDS ON THE WHEEL IS BLINDING. IF A CAR, PERSON OR ANIMAL SHOULD MOVE INTO MY PATH I WOULD HAVE DIFFICULTY SEEING THEM WITHOUT THE VISOR DOWN. I LIVE IN THE MOUNTAINS AND DRIVING UP THE HILL HOME IS VERY DIFFICULT WHEN DRIVING INTO THE SUN. IT IS GETTING WEAKER WHEN HOLDING THE UPWARD POSITION, IT WILL GET TO THE POINT THAT IT WILL NOT STAY UP AT ALL. WHEN I ASKED THE NISSAN DEALER ABOUT REPAIRING IT I WAS GIVEN A PRICE OF $450.00 JUST FOR THE PART NOT INCLUDING LABOR. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON MY CAR AND FEEL NISSAN SHOULD BE COVERING THIS UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY HAZARDS. *TR

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2006 NISSAN MURANO SL.THE DRIVE SEAT FRAME I S BROKEN. WHENEVER I TAKE A TURN THE SEAT LIFTS AS THE FRAME IS BROKEN. I COMPLAINED TO NISSAN DEALER FROM WHOM I BOUGHT THE CAR. THEY SAID THEY WILL REPLACE THE PARTS WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR. BUT ITS BEEN 2+ WEEKS ,THEY STILL WAITING ON PARTS. I DON'T THINK THEY GOING TO REPLACE IT. AS THIS ISSUE IS VERY COMMON AMONG ALL MURANOS ,I AM FILING THIS COMPLAIN. *TR
