2005 NISSAN MURANO Complaints

THE AIRBAG LIGHT BEGAN FLASHING WITHOUT APPARENT REASON, AND IT HAS BEEN FLASHING EACH TIME THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN SINCE THEN. THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND DEALERSHIP STATES DIAGNOSTIC WILL COST $85, PLUS COST OF REPAIR. I DON'T KNOW IF THE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY CORRECTLY IN A CRASH, OR IF IT WILL DEPLOY WHEN IT IS NOT NEEDED, UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES. EITHER WAY, THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. I HAVE NOTICED SEVERAL OTHER CONSUMER COMPLAINTS OF THIS TYPE. SEE CONSUMER COMPLAINT NUMBERS 1020853, 10199625, 10196794, 10193158, AND 10188126. IF THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT, THEN NISSAN SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAIR COST. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, WHILE REACHING FOR THE RADIO, I HEARD A CRACKING NOISE UNDER MY SEAT. SOMETHING BROKE LOOSE AND ME AND THE SEAT WERE THRUST VIOLENTLY TOWARDS THE RIGHT! LUCKILY, I DID NOT LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, BUT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY EASY TO AS THE SEAT BREAKING WAS AN UNEXPECTED SHOCK. THE SEAT NOW ROCKS SIDE TO SIDE AND HAS BECOME UNSTABLE. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. DEALER REPAIRED IT THE FIRST TIME AND THE SERVICE TECH WAS AWARE THIS PROBLEM EXISTED ON THIS MODEL! IN A COLLISION, THE SEAT WILL MOST DEFINITELY BREAK FREE AND LAUNCH THE DRIVER (AND SEAT) EITHER INTO THE DASHBOARD OR TOWARDS THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS DEFECT AND WILL INEVITABLY CAUSE FATALITIES. *TR
