TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN MURANO. ON MAY 5, 2009, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT WAS TILTED. THE FRAME APPEARED TO BE MISALIGNED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THE CONTACT SUSPECTED THAT SOME SCREWS WERE LOOSE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE SEAT FRAME FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT FEELS THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO A MANUFACTURER DEFECT BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS ONLY THREE YEARS OLD. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 55,000.

ENTERED VEHICLE TODAY AFTER WORK AND AS SOON AS I SAT IN THE DRIVERS SEAT, THERE WAS A LOUD POPPING NOISE. SEAT FLOPPED BACK AS I WAS GETTING IN. SEAT ROCKED BACK AND FORTH ON THE WAY HOME. UPON INSPECTION, NOTICED LEFT REAR SEAT FRAME WAS BROKEN. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM BEING REPORTED BY HUNDREDS OF OTHER MURANO OWNERS. *TR

DRIVER SEAT FRAME IS BROKEN. IT APPEARS THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHERS WITH THIS SAME SAFETY ISSUE. DEALER SUGGEST $1100 REPAIR. *TR

UPON ENTERING THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND SITTING IN DRIVER SEAT, THE DRIVER SEAT SUPPORT ROD, UNDERNEATH THE UPHOLSTERY, BECAME DISENGAGED FROM THE LEFT SIDE SUPPORT POST, CAUSING THE SEAT TO "CAVE-IN" ON THE LEFT SIDE. *TR

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD DOING 25MPH TO THE INTERSECTION AND MADE A LEFT HAND TURN ON THE ALREADY GREEN LIGHT. WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TURN THE BACK LEFT PORTION OF MY SEAT LIFTED UP SEVERAL INCHES CAUSING ME TO LEAN SUDDENLY TO THE RIGHT. MANAGED TO REGAIN CONTROL THROUGH THE TURN. NOW WHEN MAKING LEFT HAND TURNS I HAVE TO HOLD ON TO MY DOOR HANDLE WITH MY LEFT HAND TO AVOID CAUSING THE SEAT TO LIFT AND LEAN EXTREMELY TO THE RIGHT EVEN UNDER MILD SPEED. ONCE I GOT HOME I TOOK THE LEFT SIDE PLASTIC PANEL OFF THE DRIVERS SEAT AND UPON LIFTING UP THE REAR LEFT CORNER OF THE SEAT COULD SEE WHERE THE CROSS SUPPORT BRACKET HAD BROKEN THE TWO SMALL CONTACT POINTS WITH THE SIDE BRACKET. WILL TRY TO TAKE IT TO THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP TOMORROW TO HOPEFULLY HAVE REPAIRED/REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. *TR
