ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I OWN A 2003 NISSAN MURANO. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE SEVERAL MONTHS AGO.. LAST NIGHT WE WERE DRIVING ON A VERY CURVY MOUNTAIN ROAD WHEN A CAR CAME INTO SIGHT. WHEN WE SWITCHED TO DIM, THE LIGHTS WENT OUT COMPLETELY. THIS PUT US IN TOTAL DARKNESS. IT TOOK A MINUTE TO ADJUST OUR EYES AND REALIZE WHAT HAPPENED. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE DIMMER SWITCH IS ON THE STEERING WHEEL. THE SWITCH TO TURN THEM OFF IS ON THE END OF THE DIMMER HANDLE. WE KEEP OUR RUNNER LIGHTS ON EACH TIME WE ARE DRIVING THE CAR. SOME HOW WHEN YOU GO TO SWITCH THE LIGHTS THE KNOB TURNS TO OFF, WHICH MAKES THEM GO OUT, WHEN YOU SWITCH FROM BRIGHT TO DIM AND FROM DIM TO BRIGHT. THIS IS A VERY SCARY SITUATION TO BE IN. I WONDER IF OTHER FOLKS HAVE HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM. WE WERE VERY FORTUNATE THAT WE DID NOT CRASH. *TR

REGULAR USE OF THE SUN VISOR IN MY 2003 NISSAN MURANO. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHEN THE SUNVISOR FAILS TO STAY UP AND IS VERY LOOSE AND WILL FALL DOWN DURING DRIVING, WHICH THEN OBSTRUCTS THE FIELD OF VISION OF THE DRIVER SERIOUSLY COMPROMISING SAFETY. THE SUNVISOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACE, AND/OR THE MECHANISM THAT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR HOLDING AN UP POSITION OF THE SUNVISOR. *TR

I OWN A 2004 NISSAN MURANO SL AND HAVE HAD TROUBLES WITH VEHICLE HESITATION FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW. IT SEEMS TO BE MOST PRESENT WHEN IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC AND THE ENGINE IS WARM. AFTER APPROXIMATELY 10MINS OF STOP AND GO, THE GAS PEDAL DOES NOT RESPOND FOR A FEW SECONDS AND THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LUNGES FORWARD AGGRESSIVELY PRESENTING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE DEALERSHIP DOES NOT KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THIS BUT NUMEROUS REPORTS ON THE INTERNET POINT TO A VALVE BODY MALFUNCTION. *TR

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN MURANO WITH A GOLD PREFERRED EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE HAS 46,000 MILES ON IT AND THE VISOR WON'T STAY UP. ACCORDING TO MY DEALER THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM BUT IT'S CONSIDERED A "TRIM" (?) ITEM AND THEREFORE NOT COVERED. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD LEAD TO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND SHOULD BE COVERED OR SUBJECT TO A RECALL. *TR

MY DRIVERS SEAT IN MY 2005 NISSAN MURANO FAILED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. I WAS GOING AROUND A TURN AND SOMETHING POPPED AND NOW THE SEAT ROCKS BACK AND FORTH ON THE LEFT REAR OF THE SEAT. NOT VERY SAFE HAVING A SEAT THAT ROCKS WHILE DRIVING AND BROKE WHILE DRIVING. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO GET BACK ON THE ROAD WHEN IT BROKE. IT IS VERY SCARY TO HAVE IT BREAK AS YOU DRIVE. *TR

2006 NISSAN MURANO DRIVERS SEAT BROKE AND HAS SEPARATED FROM THE TRACK, THEREFORE ALLOWING THE SEAT TO TILT SIDE TO SIDE WITH ANY TURN. NISSAN DOES NOT WANT TO ADMIT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE SEAT BUT APPARENTLY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS SEAT BREAKING IN THE MURANO. I HAVE ASKED THEM TO SPLIT THE COST WITH ME AND THEY REFUSE TO DO SO. WITH ALL THE INFO OUT ON THE INTERNET ASSOCIATED WITH THIS PROBLEM I THINK THEY SHOULD BE FORCED TO DO A RECALL AND ADMIT THE PROBLEM. *TR

2006 NISSAN MURANO DRIVER & PASSENGER SUN VISOR DOES NOT STAY IN PLACE. THE MECHANISM FOR THE SUN VISOR MALFUNCTIONS. WHEN PLACED IN THE UP, LOCKED IN POSITION (NOT IN USE) IT PULLS AWAY AND HANGS LOOSELY. WHEN PLACED DOWNWARD TO BLOCK THE SUN THE VISOR DOES NOT STAY IN A LOCKED AND ANGLED POSITION. IT HAS SUDDENLY DROPPED AND OBSTRUCTED MY VIEW. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND MAY RESULT IN AN AUTO COLLISION. I LIVE IN COLORADO WHERE THE MAJORITY OF OUR DAYS ARE SUNNY. I AM OFTEN FORCED TO SUPPORT THE SUN VISOR BY HOLDING IT IN PLACE WITH MY LEFT HAND WHILE DRIVING ONLY WITH MY RIGHT HAND. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN FOR ME, AS A DRIVER SHOULD HAVE BOTH HANDS ON THE WHEEL WHILE DRIVING, I WEAR SUNGLASSES HOWEVER, THE SUNS GLARE IS OFTEN SO INTENSE THAT THE VISOR IS NECESSARY ESPECIALLY DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC WHEN I AM DRIVING WEST TOWARDS THE SUNSET. THE LAST TIME MY VISOR MALFUNCTIONED WAS YESTERDAY, 10/1/10 WHILE COMMUTING IN HEAVY RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC (5PM MST). NISSAN CORPORATION SHOULD TAKE ACTION TO RECALL & REPLACE THE SUN VISOR MECHANISM. *TR
