2006 NISSAN MURANO Complaints

MY DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR ON MY 2006 NISSAN MURANO DOES NOT STAY IN PLACE AND FALLS DOWN IN MY LINE OF SITE. IT WILL NOT STAY OPEN OR CLOSED. IT JUST HANGS DOWN, BLOCKING MY VIEW. I HAVE SINCE REMOVED IT FROM THE VEHICLE, AS THE DEALER WANTS $400 TO REPLACE IT. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR FALLS DOWN DURING DRIVING. THERE ARE TONS OF COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER NISSAN DRIVERS WHO ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE SAME AND DIFFERENT YEAR MODEL. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF NISSAN TO RECALL AND FIX. I HAVE NEARLY CRASHED DOZENS OF TIMES WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE THE VISOR FALLS DOWN AND BLOCKS MY VIEW. *TR

NISSAN MURANO 2006 MODEL, SEAT ASSEMBLY BRACKET BROKE (PART # 87450-CA68A )... AND AS I CHECKED I FOUND OUT THAT IT HAS HAPPENED WITH MANY OTHER MURANO GUYS AS WELL... THIS IS DANGEROUS IF IT BREAKS AGAIN WHILE DRIVING AND LOOKS LIKE A FAULTY PART, SPENT AROUND 500 DOLLARS TO GET OT DONE... *TR

THE BRACKET HOLDING THE DRIVER'S SEAT IN THE REAR LEFT SECTION OF THE SEAT HAS BROKEN. THE CAR HAS 41,000 MILES AND IS A 2006 NISSAN MURANO. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. THE RESULT IS A SEAT THAT NOW LEANS AND IS ONLY CONNECTED TO THE MOUNTING POINTS AT 3 LOCATIONS INSTEAD OF 4. *TR

DRIVERS SEAT FRAME SNAPPED. SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING A LOT WITH OTHER MURANO OWNERS. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2006 NISSAN MURANO (PURCHASED NEW JANUARY 2006) WITH ABOUT 45K MILES ON IT WHEN---WHILE DRIVING, THE DRIVERS SEAT ROCKED TO THE LEFT/LEFT REAR, CLEARLY BROKEN. SIDE-TO-SIDE LURCHING MOVEMENT OF THE SEAT HAPPENS CONSTANTLY. I TOOK IT TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN CEDAR RAPIDS IOWA. THEY TOLD ME THE DRIVERS SEAT TRACK WAS BROKEN AND GAVE AN ESTIMATE OF $1,035.09 TO REPAIR. THIS INCLUDED $675.30 DRIVERS SEAT TRACK PART. THE PART NUMBER LISTED ON THE ESTIMATE WAS 87450-CA06A THIS WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY DUE TO MILEAGE (47K AT TIME OF THEIR DIAGNOSIS). THIS HAS TO BE A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN, PARTICULARLY IF ANY ACCIDENT OCCURRED, AT WHICH TIME A SECURED SEAT WOULD BE IMPERATIVE. I CAN'T IMAGINE THAT THIS BASIC EQUIPMENT HAS A LIFESPAN OF LESS THAN THREE YEARS, YET WHEN I RESEARCHED THIS INCIDENT ONLINE, I FOUND MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME "BROKEN SEAT" IN 2006 AND 2005 MURANO MODEL YEARS. *TR

RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2006 NISSAN MURANO. I THOUGHT MY SEAT WAS NOT ADJUSTED PROPERLY, BUT I NOW REALIZE THE SEAT IS BROKEN. THE SEAT LEANS TO THE LEFT SO MUCH, THAT IT MAKES IT VERY UNCOMFORTABLE TO DRIVE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS ON A CAR WITH 40,000 MILES AND JUST THREE YEARS OLD. *TR

I HAD A FAILURE OF THE DRIVERS SEAT IN MY 2006 NISSAN MURANO. AFTER CHECKING WITH THE PARTS DEPARTMENT AT MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER (OLATHE NISSAN) I FOUND THE PART BROKEN WAS PART NUMBER 87450+A. REPLACEMENT OF THAT PORTION OF MY SEAT WILL RESULT IN A COST OF APPROXIMATELY $650.00 PARTS, PLUS LABOR FOR INSTALLATION. I'M STILL WITHIN THE 3 YEAR WARRANTY PERIOD, BUT OVER THE 35K MILE AND WAS TOLD THIS WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THERE IS A TSB ON THIS PROBLEM AND SEEMS AS I HAVE BECOME A MEMBER OF A LARGE GROUP THAT CAN EXPECT THE POTENTIAL FOR HAVING THIS REPAIR EVERY 2 TO 3 YEARS. IT SEEMS THAT NISSAN HAS A DESIGN PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED, BUT NOT AT MY EXPENSE LIFE OR MONEY. THIS SHOULD BE VIEWED AS AN EXTREME SAFETY ISSUE, AS IT BROKE WHEN I WAS DRIVING MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE! *TR

DRIVERS SEAT WAS MAKING A SQUEAKING NOISE AND FINALLY BROKE, SENDING THE SEAT DOWN TO THE FLOOR, JOLTING THE DRIVER. IT WAS REPAIRED BY THE DEALER, BUT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY. *TR

BACK LEFT SEAT ANCHOR ON THE DRIVERS SEAT BROKE WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THE SEAT ROCKS BACK AND FORTH AND IS UNSTABLE. *TR
