SEATS
THE LEFT SIDE OF THE DRIVERS' SIDE SEAT STARTED MOVING UP AND DOWN - THE BRACKET THAT ATTACHED IT TO THE FLOOR OF THE CAR SNAPPED SO THE LEFT SIDE BOUNCES UP AND DOWN. THIS IS PRIMARILY MY SONS CAR AND IT SEEMS LIKE A SAFETY ISSUE FOR ME - MOVING WHILE DRIVING, AND LESS STABLE IN AN ACCIDENT. IT LOOKS FROM NISSAN FORUMS THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH NISSAN MURANO YET IT IS NOT A RECALL. *TR

STRUCTURE:BODY
HI JUST DISCOVERED MY 2005 MURANO HAS TOTAL RUST ON SUBFRAME TO THE POINT CAR UNSAFE TO DRIVE. ARE THERE ANY RECALLS FOR REPAIRS OR THIS OCCURRING FREQUENTLY. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. IF IT WASN'T FOR MY MECHANIC FRIEND SOMETHING BAD COULD HAVE HAPPENED OR I COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ON DRY PAVEMENT AND WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS NOTICE CAR SHIFTING QUITE A BIT TO THE POINT OF ALMOST LOSING CONTROL. WHEN I PARKED MY CAR NOTICED ONE OF MY REAR TIRES WAS SLANTED INWARD. MY MECHANIC SAW IT AND SAID NOT TO DRIVE IT.

SUSPENSION
THE REAR SUB FRAME IS RUSTED OUT AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE SUB FRAME RUSTING OUT ON THESE MURANO MODELS AND MAKING THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. WHY WAS THIS ISSUE NEVER ADDRESSED WITH A RECALL WHEN THE SUB FRAME IS OBVIOUSLY DEFECTIVE WITH RUSTING OUT. NISSAN SHOULD REPLACE THESE DEFECTIVE PARTS AT THEIR EXPENSE, NOT MINE....

2005 MURANO PURCHASED 6 YRS AGO HAS 67,000 MI ON IT. HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM PREVIOUSLY BUT HAS STARTED BURNING OIL. HAVE KEPT UP ON REGULAR MAINTENANCE BUT WAS LAX THIS TIME. CAR WENT 5,000 MI BEFORE HAVING A PROBLEM WITH SMOKE FROM EXHAUST AND PINGING NOISE. TOOK TO MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THAT THE OIL WAS 3 1/2 QTS LOW. MY MECHANIC THINKS I MIGHT NEED TO REBUILD THE ENGINE OR BUY NEW. HE WILL CHECK IT IN A WEEK TO SEE IF IT'S STILL BURNING OIL. HE CHANGED THE OIL AND WANTS TO MONITOR IT BEFORE WE MAKE THE DECISION TO DO ADDITIONAL WORK. I NEVER HAD ANY INDICATION THAT IT WAS LOW ON OIL. MY FAULT FOR NOT CHECKING IT BUT WOULD THINK I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN AN INDICATOR LIGHT. ANYONE ELSE BURNING THRU OIL LIKE THIS?

REAR HATCH DOOR DOES NOT UNLOCK. I TOOK THEM CAR TO THE SELLING AGENCY AND WAS CHARGED APPROXIMATELY 500 DOLLARS TO REPAIR THE LOCK. IT WORKED FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 MONTHS AND THE PROBLEM AROSE AGAIN. THEY AGENCY STATED THAT THEY HAD TO CHARGE ME AN ADDITIONAL 120 DOLLARS JUST TO CHECK OUT THEIR PROBLEM. I DIDN'T PURSUE THE FIX BECAUSE I THOUGHT THEY INSPECTION FEE WAS UNWARRANTED. THEY SITUATION REMAINS.

MEANWHILE IVE HAD TO PAY OVER $1000 FOR THE ALTERNATOR WORK WHICH WAS RECALLED HOWEVER MY VIN DIDNT FALL UNDER THE RECALL. ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND HOOD OF CAR ARE ALSO SO HOT YOU CANT TOUCH THEM EVEN AFTER JUST DRIVING 1 MILE IN 70 DEGREEE WEATHER HOWEVER THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE ISNT RUNNING HIGH. NOW THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS FLASHING ON AND OFF UPON STARTING. I TRIED CYCLING THE ENGINE NURMEROUS TIMES BUT THE LIGHT IS STILL ON. NISSAN SAID THEY WILL HAVE TO REPLACE WHOLE UNIT FOR $5000 BECAUSE THEY CANT PIN POINT AIRBAG ISSUE. AIRBAG ISSUE ISNT FIXED AND NOBODY CAN TELL ME IF I HAVE A WORKING AIR BAG OR NOT. IM NOT SURE IF I NEED TO CONTACT AN ATTORNEY BECAUSE IM NOW CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY 4 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WHILE IN THE VEHICLE.

TAKATA RECALL, I CHANGED ALL THEE COIL PACKS, ALTERNATOR, STARTER, BATTERIES, OIL CHANGE ON TIME BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD NEVER GO OFF. THE CAR HAS STALLED ON ME SEVERAL TIMES ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENTS (SEVERAL TIMES). MY CAR WOULD SMOKE SOOO BAD WHEN I STOP AND THAT WAS BECAUSE THE MOTOR KEPT DUMPING OIL IN 5HE THROTTLE. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR BECAUSE IT MAY CATCH ON FIRE DUE TO THE EXTREME OIL LEAK.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE STREET OR HIGHWAY ABS LIGHT COMES ON THEN VEHICLE STALLS AND ROLLS AT ABOUT 2 MPH AND THE CAR DOESN'T RESPOND WHEN I PRESS THE GAS PEDAL. USUALLY THE ABS LIGHT TURNS OFF THEN I CAN DRIVE NORMALLY. THE LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED THE CAR TURNED OFF I HAD TO PUSH IT OUT OF THE STREET AND IT WOULDN'T START UP FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS, THEN THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND THEN IT STALLS WITH NO RESPONSE WHEN PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL. THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER 10 TIMES EVEN AFTER REPLACING THE BRAKES AND CHECKING ALL THE SENSORS, CHECKING THE BATTERY AND ALL OF THE CONNECTIONS AND FLUIDS.
