2007 NISSAN MURANO Complaints

THE DRIVER SEAT FRAME ON MY 2007 NISSAN MURANO BROKE WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE. I WENT BY THE DEALER TODAY AND THEY SAID SAME IS NOT COVERED AND WANT ME TO PAY ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR A NEW FRAME EVEN THOUGH THEY KNOW SAME IS DEFECTIVE, THEY SAID UNTIL SAME IS DEEMED A SAFETY ISSUE /RECALL THEY ARE NOT GOING TO FIX ANYTHING FOR FREE. *TR

THIS IS ANOTHER COMPLAINT ABOUT THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR THAT DROPS DOWN UNEXPECTEDLY. MY DAUGHTER, WHO IS JUST LEARNING TO DRIVE, ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE SHE WAS STARTLED WHEN IT DROPPED DOWN. THE COST TO REPLACE IS OVER $300 SO WE ARE TRYING WAYS TO KEEP IT FROM DROPPING DOWN. IT SHOULD BE A RECALL AS IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ON THE INTERNET. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SUN VISOR WOULD CONTINUOUSLY FALL FROM THE LATCH HOOKS, OBSTRUCTING THE VIEW OF THE DRIVER. THE DEALER MADE UNKNOWN REPAIRS TO THE VISOR YET THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT REPAIRS WOULD BE AT THE EXPENSE OF THE CONTACT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT FURTHER REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 17,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 35,000.

SEAT BRACKET BROKE, WHICH SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR SAFETY DEFECT IN THE NISSAN MURANO. WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO ADJUST THE SEAT ONLY ONE SIDE WOULD RAISE, THE OTHER WAS BROKE....NO OTHER EVENT LED TO FAILURE. CANT EVEN BUY AN UPDATED PART, NISSAN ONLY SELLS THE SAME DEFECTIVE PART. *TR

PURCHASED USED 2007 NISSAN MURANO 6/25/2010 WITH 27,000 MILES DROVE ON HIGHWAY AND HAD ACCELERATION PROBLEMS AND HIGH PITCHED NOISE FROM ENGINE ABOVE 60,000 MILES NISSAN BROWN'S STERLING VA SAYS IT IS UNDER WARRANTY AND HAS PARTS ON ORDER. VERY DISSATISFIED WITH THIS PURCHASE. DEALER SERVICE SAID NOT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE BUT IT OBVIOUSLY IS WHEN THE CARE WON'T ACCELERATE AND JERKS FORWARD. *TR

SUDDENLY, WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 NISSAN MURANO TODAY, I HEARD A "SNAP" SOUND, AND THE DRIVER'S SEAT BEGAN LEANING TO THE LEFT. NOT FEELING SAFE IN THE CAR, I STOPPED TO INSPECT THE SEAT, AND FOUND THAT THE STEEL FRAME WAS BROKEN UNDER THE LEFT REAR CORNER OF THE SEAT CUSHION. THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN 50,000 MILES AT THIS POINT, SO IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A SAFETY ISSUE FOR THIS VEHICLE. *TR

THE SEAT MOUNT FAILED ON MY 2007 NISSAN MURANO. IN REVIEWING THE DAMAGE, I DISCOVERED THAT THE MOUNT IS A THIN STRIP OF INFERIOR METAL. IN EXPLORING OPTIONS TO FIX THE SEAT I WENT TO THE DEALER, WHO SAID A REPAIR WOULD BE APPROXIMATELY $1,500. I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A MAINTENANCE ISSUE AND IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE. IN REVIEWING THE DATABASE THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL INVESTIGATIONS BUT WITH NO RECOMMENDATIONS. PLEASE HELP. *TR

MY 2007 NISSAN MURANO HAS A POWER STEERING FLUID LEAK. I WAS TOLD BY MY MECHANIC THAT THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE HAS TO REPLACED AT A COST OF $550.00 DOLLARS. MY CAR ONLY HAS 37,000 MILES WHICH IS OVER THE WARRANTY. I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER NISSAN. *TR

DRIVER POWER SEAT OF NISSAN MURANO BREAKS FOR NO REASON WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE. I AM ONLY 179 LBS. LEFT REAR BRACKET BROKE AND SEAT BECOMES UNSTABLE. IT IS SHAKING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT AND FRONT TO REAR. WHEN PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL, SEAT LEANS TO THE BACK. IT ALSO MAY BE DANGEROUS BECAUSE SEAT HAS A SAFETY BAG. *TR
