2007 NISSAN MURANO Complaints

Hello, i would like to report a problem. Didnt really see anything about transmission on the choices listed above. Well i got this car used from someone. Didnt really noticed the transmission problem until i was driving it for a while on the freeway. The transmission is just so bad . It is stuck on 3rd gear all the way. At high speeds. So imagine, the engine is whining so bad. The car basically wants to give up now. Still starts, revers, goes foward with no problem. Shifting is the problem. Also, ive checked the transmission fluid. Its still at a perfect level. Yes, it has roughly 129,000 miles on it. But really? This car should be lasting longer. Please. I really dont want to pay out of pocket for a whole new transmission. Theres got to be a way or something you guys could do to help me and my family.

THE REAR K FRAME (SUB-FRAME) OF THE VEHICLE IS RUSTED COMPLETELY THROUGH ON BOTH SIDES - THE REAR TIRES SLANT OUTWARD AT BOTTOM & MY GOOD TIRES NOW SQUEEL WHILE GOING AROUND TURNS - ONE SIDE OF THE REAR STABALIZER BAR IS NOW DETACHED FROM ALL THE RUST. THIS VEHICAL IS NO LONGER SAFE TO BE DRIVEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I SEE MANY SUCH REPORTS BUT CAN FIND ANY EVIDENCE OF A RECALL BY NISSAN - WHY IS THAT ?

K frame rust, wheels tilting not safe to drive. Rest of vehicle fine,to bad this is not a recall. Really like vehicle otherwise.

The metal used to make the k frame on the nissan murano has failed. It has lead to numerous problems with this year of muranos. I believe Nissan should be responsible for fixing this problem. It is a huge safety problem and could kill someone.

Had driveshaft put on and asked mechanic to put sway links on that I had purchased. He called after putting driveshaft on and stated he couldn’t put sway links on until the sub frame was fixed due to it being rusted out and broke. He took a video to show me. He said the part would have to be ordered from Nissan and taken somewhere because he doesn’t do that kind of work. I took it to another garage abd they put up on the rack abd confirmed the sub frame was broke and needed replaced.

Crossover member is severely deteriorated and sway bar has broken out of the rear crossover member on both sides. Car only has 92,000 miles on it. Lower control arm can come lose and causing the wheel to detach from car. Sway bar was dragging the ground and upon inspection, noticed the deteriorated rear crossover.

Recently my 2007 Nissan Murano was dragging a little on slow speeds. I checked the wheels and found the driver's side rear brake had more brake dust then the other side. I pulled the wheels and found that the brake caliper was froze. I bought two "new" calipers and rotors and replaced them. I then used an Air driven suction device to replace all the fluid in the system and bleed the air out of the system. When I started it up the brake pedal was very spongy so I brought to the local tire Kingdom about 1/2 mile away and let them bleed it out. They stated that the master cylinder was now no good. I purchased a "new" master cylinder installed it, and re-bleed the system. The pedal was still dangerously spongy and low so on 06/14/202I the vehicle to the local Nissan dealer. After a few days they stated that the "ABS Brake Actuator" was not functioning. I questioned why the ABS warning light didn't come on and they didn't know. The dealer said the part was no longer available new so hey offered to get one from LKQ scrap yard for $780.00 and for $220.00 more it would be covered for a year. I looked into the issue and found that the 2009 Murano's were recalled for this issue, so I inquired what year was the part coming out of. They didn't know so I got one on my own from the exact same vehicle and brought to them to install. A few days later they stated that the new "Master Cylinder" was defective. I went back to Nappa Auto and bought another one and gave to them to install and re-bleed the system. My question is a vehicle with an ABS warning light a Brake System warning light and even just a Engine check light never came on, why not? The dealer has no answer for me and I am concerned that this will happen again and possibly at a higher rate of speed. Can you investigate this incident for me? Thank you for your time and consideration.

Upon driving my vehicle, my ABS and AWD lights came on and it felt as though the abs brakes were engaging, despite being on a flat, dry road driving at low speed. My car was making a very slight, difficult to hear noise coming from the rear, a knocking noise of sorts. I also began hearing a high pitched, whirring noise as well, though I could not identify the location or source. Upon inspection by a mechanic, I was informed that 1. The rear subframe was rusted and would need to be replaced as it was causing the control arms to move when they should not. 2. Front driver's side wheel bearing was causing the high pitched "whirring noise" and needed to be replaced. I was told to take vehicle to a body shop to repair the subframe problem. I had the front wheel bearing replaced at the auto mechanic. However, the high pitched noise that I was told was caused by the bearing, still persisted. I then decided to tow the vehicle to the body shop as upon visual inspection under my vehicle, the rear sway bar was resting on my exhaust and I felt it u safe to drive. Spoke with the body shop owner the next day, he informed me that my car was very unsafe and could not be driven because the rear subframe was so rusted and corroded, there "is practically nothing left to it." Body shop owner said that this could result in a dangerous, possibly fatal accident.

Purchased vehicle about 8 months ago, tires needed replaced badly a few weeks ago. During the change I was advised vehicle needed a wheel alignment due to tires going inward. Well today after picking up vehicle I was informed my rear sub frame of vehicle is severely corroded and unsafe to drive, rear body bushings are basically holding up by nothing. After visiting website this seems to be a common finding this year. My thoughts would be they stop selling this year and manner of vehicle due to safety concerns

THE REAR SUB FRAME IS COMPLETELY RUSTED IN TWO. THE REAR SWAY BAR FELL OFF IN THE HIGHWAY WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION.
