ENGINE, VISIBILITY/WIPER, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING OUR 2009 NISSAN MURANO IN SEPT 2012 A LOUD NOISE WAS HEARD AT TIMES IN THE FLOOR BOARD...IT WAS DISCOVERED TO BE A BROKEN MOTOR MOUNT...THIS WAS REPLACED UNDER 30 DAY WARRANTY FROM PLACE OF PURCHASE. THE SUNROOF COVER ALSO WAS DEFECTIVE AS IT WOULD NOT OPEN COMPLETELY AT TIMES AND ALSO REQUIRED REPLACING. SINCE THIS TIME IN 2013 THE WIPERS DO NOT WORK PROPERLY AT ALL TIMES...THIS HAS NOT BEEN RECREATED FOR A TECH TO INSPECT....SOMETIMES THEY DO NOT GO AS FAST AS SHOULD IF HEAVY RAIN AND OTHER TIMES GO TOO FAST IF BARELY DRIZZLING, THIS IS ON THE INTERMITTENT FUNCTION. FEBRUARY 2014 WAS DUE TO TAKE IN FOR ROUTINE OIL CHANGE THAT DAY AND SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON THAT MORNING...WAS ADVISED NEEDS NEW CATALYTIC CONVERTER, WAS AT 85K, MANF. WARRANTY WENT OUT AT 80K, EXTENDED WARRANTY WE PURCHASED AND PAID EXTRA FOR WAS TO COVER UP TO 150K; HOWEVER, DOES NOT COVER THIS PART. NISSAN SAYS NOTHING ON THEM, FUNNY THEY ARE THE ONES WHO MADE THE VEHICLE, AND REGARDLESS OF THIS BEING A USED VEHICLE (WE ARE THE SECOND OWNER) THIS IS NOT SOMETHING YOU CAN TELL IN ADVANCE IS GOING OUT...WE HAVE NOT HAD ANY NOISE PRIOR AND THIS WAS FIRST TIME LIGHT CAME ON. THIS IS VERY COSTLY AND SOMETHING THAT HAS TO BE FIXED IN ORDER TO PASS INSPECTION OR I WILL NOT HAVE A VEHICLE TO DRIVE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
CAR WOULD NOT START, EVERYTHING WORK IN THE CAR, BUT IT WOULD START, PUT A NEW BATTERY IN THE CAR AND IT WORK. A COUPLE OF DAYS WENT BY (CAR STARTED EVERY TIME) ONE DAY CAR DID THE SAME THING GOT ANOTHER BATTERY FOR IT AND CAR STARTED AND RAN, 3RD TIME WAS DOWN TOWN THE CAR WOULD NOT RUN IT STARTED BUT WOULD NOT MOVE. GOT IT HOME FINALLY STARTED THE CAR THE NEXT DAY CAUSE I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS THE SECURITY ON WHY IT WOULDN'T DRIVE. I STARTED THE CAR TO LET IT WARM UP, WENT OUT 10 MIN. LATER AND THE CAR WAS NOT RUNNING. GOT ANOTHER BATTERY CAR STARTED TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL CENEX THEY CHECK THE CAR AND SAID THE ALTERNATOR WAS NOT WORKING. THEY DID A TEST, WHEN I WOULD TURN MY LIGHTS ON AND HEAT THE BATTERY WAS DRAINING. MY SON CHARGED THE LAST BATTERY THAT WAS IN MY CAR AND IT TOOK THE CHARGE AND STILL IS, SO 3 BATTERY CANT BE BAD. CALLED NISSAN TO SEE ABOUT THE RECALL ON MY NISSAN, NO MY CAR WAS NOT, I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY WOULD NOT PUT MY CAR ON THE LIST. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED AND NOT SURE WHERE IT CAME FROM MY CAR IS DOING THE SAME THING EVERYONE IS COMPLAINING ABOUT, IF THE ALTERNATOR IS BAD COVER IT..PLUS THE CLOSES NISSAN DEALER IS 3 TO 4 HOURS AWAY. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EQUIPMENT
BOTH FOBS (CAR KEYS) WENT BAD ON MY 2009 NISSAN MURANO, UNABLE TO LOCK AND OPEN DOORS USING THE FOB. I HAD TO REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE FOB TO UNLOCK THE DOORS. AT NIGHT THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE AS I HAD TO STRUGGLE TO TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE CASE IN THE DARK. REPLACED BATTERIES IN THE FOB AND DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. ON JANUARY 22, 2014 I MAILED A LETTER TO NISSAN OF AMERICA ASKING FOR REIMBURSEMENT OF THE NEW FOB I HAD TO PURCHASE. NISSAN WAS UNABLE TO OFFER FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE WITH THE REPLACEMENT OF THE FOB AS THE VEHICLE BEING OUTSIDE OF THE NEW VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY. AS I EXPRESSED MY CONCERN TO NISSAN THAT A CAR KEY SHOULD NEVER HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THESE FOBS ARE MANUFACTURING DEFECTS I UNDERSTAND REPLACING A BATTERY BUT NOT THE ENTIRE FOB. THE COST OF ONE FOB WAS $239.61. *TR

MY 2009 NISSAN MURANO WILL HESITATE FOR 10-20 SECONDS WHILE I DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD OR HEADING UP HILL. I TOOK IT TO THE ESCONDIDO NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT MY TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THEY REPLACED IT AT A GREAT COST TO ME, BUT I AM EXPERIENCING THE SAME HESITATION. IT IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE MY CAR WILL STOP FOR NO GOOD REASON, CAUSING THOSE BEHIND ME TO HAVE TO SLAM ON THEIR BRAKES. NISSAN STATES THAT BECAUSE I RECEIVED AN UPGRADED TRANSMISSION AND UPGRADED PARTS, I CAN EXPECT THIS SORT OF HESITATION FROM HERE ON OUT. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY VEHICLE AND NISSAN IS NOT REPAIRING MY VEHICLE IN ORDER TO MAKE IT SAFE. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, WHEELS
VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY PARKED AT DEALER WITH CONFIRMED BRAKE/WHEEL LOCKING PROBLEM OCCURRING IN ONE WHEEL AT TIME AND RANDOM AMONG 3 OF THE 4 WHEELS EACH TIME APPLIED IN MODE SIMILAR TO ABRUPT STOP AND IN SLICK CONDITIONS.THIS BRAKING PROBLEM DID RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT 11/18/2013. THE COMPUTERS INDICATE EVERYTHING WORKING PROPERLY YET TECH'S ARE ABLE TO CONFIRM THAT IS NOT THE CASE. AFTER NUMEROUS TESTS, DEALER TECH'S WERE ADVISED BY NISSAN TO CEASE FURTHER TESTING AND OPEN CASE WITH CONSUMER AFFAIRS. INITIAL BRAKE ISSUE REPORTED 8/7/2012. BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. DID NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME BUT FREQUENT. CAUSED INCONSISTENT STOPPING CONTROL AND ALMOST CAUSED ACCIDENT DRIVING AND EVEN PULLING A PARKING SPOT. DEALER REPLACED MASTER CYLINDER. VEHICLE WAS AGAIN RETURNED TO DEALER 12/26/2012 FOR SOFT/SPONGY BRAKE PROBLEM BRAKES WOULD GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH UNSAFE AND REDUCED BRAKING ABILITY. DEALER HAD VEHICLE UNTIL 1/4/2013. APPEARS THEY REPLACED MASTER CYLINDER AGAIN, TO NO AVAIL. THEY CONTACTED NISSAN TECH-LINE FOR ASSIST. REPLACED ABS CONTROL MOD ASSY AND BRAKES APPEARED NORMAL AGAIN. 6 DAYS LATER ON 1/10/2013. STREET WAS SNOW COVERED. I LIGHTLY APPLIED BRAKES & VEHICLE BEGAN TO LOSE CONTROL, WITH REAR OF THE VEHICLE TRYING TO COME AROUND. THE VEHICLE FELT LIKE A WHEEL OR BRAKE LOCKED UP CAUSING ME TO BEGIN SLIDING, THEN LIKE TRACTION CONTROL WAS MALFUNCTIONING CAUSING FURTHER LOSS OF CONTROL. THEY CHECKED IT & CONCLUDED EVERYTHING WAS WORKING PROPERLY.THE NEXT SNOW I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. ANYTIME I APPLIED BRAKES IN THE SNOW, I WOULD BEGIN TO LOSE CONTROL AS IF ONLY ONE BRAKE WAS WORKING. ON 11/18/2013 DRIVER HAD TO HIT BRAKES ABRUPTLY AND CAR WENT INTO A SKID WITH ONE TIRE LOCKING UP CAUSING HER TO NOT BE ABLE TO STOP SAFELY CAUSING A COLLISION.LEAVING SINGLE TIRE SKID MARK,APPROX 60 FEET BEFORE STOP. ABS DID NOT ACTIVATE. *TR

MY HUSBAND TOOK MY VEHICLE FOR A NORMAL OIL CHANGE. HE WAS THEN INFORMED THAT THE TRANSFER CASE HAD A LEAK AND IT WOULD COST OVER $3,000.00 TO HAVE IT REPLACED. I DO HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AND BETWEEN NISSAN AND THE EXTENDED WARRANTY I AM BEING JUGGLED AROUND AS TO WHO IS RESPONSIBLE TO PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT. I HAVE SINCE FOUND OUT THAT THE FACTORY WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED DUE TO THE MANY PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AND HAVE FOUND THAT THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM ON THE MURANO FOR QUITE SOME TIME. APPARENTLY IF THE TRANSFER CASE RUNS DRY OF THE SMALL AMOUNT OF OIL IT HAS, IT CAN LOCK UP THE ENTIRE DRIVETRAIN AND RENDER THE VEHICLE UN-DRIVABLE. THE TRANSFER CASE IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE CVT AND MANY OF THE FAILED CVT'S VEHICLES HAVE HAD CRACKED OR LEAVING TRANSFER CASES. SINCE THERE SEEMS TO BE A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF INCIDENTS AND NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE, IT SEEMS UNBELIEVABLE THAT THEY ARE NOT FIXING THE TRANSFER CASE ISSUE, ESPECIALLY SINCE IT IS A POTENTIAL SAFETY CONCERN. IT SEEMS FIT THAT SINCE NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT THE ISSUE THEY SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL COSTS FOR REPAIRS WHICH INCLUDES LABOR, PARTS AND ANY OTHER RELATED EXPENSES. *TR

I WAS TOLD TODAY THAT I HAVE LEAK IN THE TRANSFER CASE IN MY 2009 NISSAN MURANO AWD. I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE ADVISOR THAT THE LEAK COULD CAUSE A FIRE IF THE FLUID DRIPS ONTO THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. AFTER SEARCHING THE WEB, I FOUND MANY OTHER NISSAN MURANOS WITH SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. I THINK NISSAN SHOULD BE FORCED TO MAKE THE NECESSARY REPAIR (EST. GIVEN $2725) WHEN THE 60,000 MILE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
OUR VEHICLE IS A 2009 NISSAN MURANO SL WITH RELATIVELY LOW MILEAGE. AROUND NOVEMBER OF 2010 THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS BEGAN TO RANDOMLY FAIL TO WORK ON THIS VEHICLE. OVER A PERIOD OF SEVERAL MONTHS THE MALFUNCTIONING DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS SPREAD TO ALL FOUR OF THE DOORS ON THIS CAR. I HAVE CONTACTED TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS AFTER HAVING LEARNED THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON FAILURE ON MULTIPLE YEAR MODELS OF NISSANS. BOTH DEALERS EXPLAINED THERE WAS NO RECALL AND THAT THE REPAIRS WOULD LIKELY RUN $1200 TO $1800 TO FIX ALL FOUR DOORS. LIVING IN THE HOUSTON AREA AND HAVING A GRANDCHILD, THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION. NISSAN SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO RECALL THE VEHICLES SUFFERING FROM THIS DEFECT. OTHER VEHICLES THAT I HAVE OWNED FOR MANY YEARS NEVER SUFFERED A FAILURE OF SUCH A CRITICAL COMPONENT. THE PRICE DEALERS ARE CHARGING FOR THIS REPAIR IS OUTRAGEOUS IN LIGHT OF THE FACT THAT IT IS SO CRITICAL TO SAFETY. THE INABILITY TO QUICKLY AND SAFELY LOCK A VEHICLE INVITES OCCUPANTS TO BE EJECTED IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH AND MAKES OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE MUCH MORE VULNERABLE TO CAR JACKING OR OTHER FORCED ENTRY CRIMES. PLEASE LOOK INTO THE FREQUENCY AND SEVERITY OF THIS ISSUE AND FORCE NISSAN TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS VERY SIGNIFICANT DEFECT IN THEIR VEHICLES. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE VEHICLE IS REGISTERED IN MY DAUGHTERS NAME. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THERE WAS A SHORT IN THE ALTERNATOR AND THE BATTERY HAD COMPLETELY BURNT OUT DUE TO IT. THAT PUT THE MURANO INTO THE "FAIL SAFE" MODE. THIS OCCURRED AT A VERY DANGEROUS INTERSECTION, LEAVING MY DAUGHTER STRANDED IN THE #2 LANE AND THERE WAS NOT A SHOULDER AVAILABLE. AFTER RESEARCHING MURANO'S I FOUND THAT IT IS JUST LIKE WHAT HAPPEN TO THE 2005 MURANO'S THAT HAD TO RECALLED. AFTER WRITING AND CALLING NISSAN, THEY REFUSED TO HELP WITH THE MATTER. THE NHTSA NEEDS TO PUSH NISSAN FOR A RECALL. *TR

I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSION AND WAS TOLD THE FACTORY WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED TO DOUBLE THAT OF ITS ORIGINAL OFFER DUE TO MANY PROBLEMS. I TOOK MY MURANO TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THE CVT REPLACED AND WHILE I WAS THERE, THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THE TRANSFER CASE WAS LEAKING ALSO AND WOULD NEED A NEW SEAL BUT IT WAS EXPENSIVE. I RECEIVED A CALL LATER FROM THE DEALER STATING THAT MY PARTICULAR VIN CONTAINED A TRANSFER CASE THAT HAD NO SEPARATE SEAL OPTION AND THE ENTIRE CASE WOULD NEED REPLACED FOR OVER $3,000. WITH VERY LITTLE LOOKING I SEE THAT THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM ON THE MURANO FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND THEY HAVE CHANGED THE WARRANTY TO COVER THE FAULTY CVT TRANSMISSION BUT NOT THE TRANSFER CASE WHICH HAS GONE HAND IN HAND WITH PREVIOUS CVT'S. (IF IT'S ONE, IT'S BOTH) APPARENTLY, IF THE CASE RUNS DRY OF OIL (WHICH IT DOESN'T HAVE MUCH IN THE FIRST PLACE) IT CAN LOCK UP THE ENTIRE DRIVETRAIN AND RENDER THE VEHICLE UN-DRIVABLE. THE TRANSFER CASE IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE CVT AND MANY OF THE FAILED CVT'S VEHICLES HAVE HAD CRACKED OR LEAKING TRANSFER CASES AS WELL. CONSIDERING THE NUMBER OF INCIDENTS AND AWARENESS OF NISSAN WITH THIS ISSUE, IT SEEMS ABSURD THEY NOT REMEDY THE TRANSFER CASE ISSUE, ESPECIALLY WITH IT BEING A POTENTIAL SAFETY CONCERN. BUT KNOWING THAT THE TRANSFER CASE IS UNSERVICEABLE AND A FULLY ENCLOSED, INTEGRAL PART OF THE MAIN DRIVE TRAIN SHOULD CLEARLY PUT NISSAN IN THE HOT SEAT FOR ALL COSTS FOR REPAIRS LABOR, PARTS, AND ANY OTHER RELATED EXPENSES. *TR

AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON. UPON REVIEW BY THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP, I WAS INFORMED THAT THE SENSOR UNDERNEATH THE PASSENGER SEAT COULD BE THE REASON THE LIGHT WAS BLINKING. THE COST OF REPAIR WOULD BE $2500.00. UPON REVIEW ON THE NISSAN WEBSITE THIS INFORMATION WAS FOUND "NISSAN IS RECALLING 204,361 MY 2007-2008 ALTIMA, ALTIMA HYBRID, 350Z, 350Z ROADSTER, MY 2008 ALTIMA COUPE, ROGUE, MY 2009 MURANO, AND INFINITI MY 2007-2008 G35 SEDAN, MY 2008 G37 COUPE AND EX35 PASSENGER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH CONTINENTAL AUTOMOTIVE SYSTEMS' OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (OCS) CONTROL UNITS. A VARISTOR IN THE OCS CONTROL UNIT LOCATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION MAY HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED OUT OF SPECIFICATION. UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, THIS COULD CAUSE AN INTERRUPTION OF SIGNAL BETWEEN THE OCS AND THE AIR BAG CONTROL UNIT." MY VEHICLE IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, YET I WAS INFORMED BY NISSAN THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. IT SEEMS AS IF THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. *TR
