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

THE DRIVERS' SEAT IN OUR 2006 NISSAN MURANO CAME UN-WELDED. THIS FAILURE WAS NOT DUE TO ANY OUT OF THE ORDINARY USE AS THIS VEHICLE IS A DAILY DRIVER. WE HAD APPROXIMATELY 80K MILES ON THE CAR WHEN SUDDENLY OUR SEAT STARTED TO ROCK BACK AND FORTH IN A CADDY CORNER MOTION. DEALER SAID HE HAD SEEN ABOUT 60 OF THESE IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS AND OFFERED NO COMPLIMENTARY PART FOR REPLACEMENT. WE PURCHASED THE 100K MILE EXTENDED WARRANTY SO WE ONLY HAD TO PAY $50.00 TO HAVE IT FIXED. SERIOUSLY THOUGH, A SEAT COMING UN-WELDED? MAKES MY STOMACH SICK TO KNOW THAT THIS IS STILL AN ISSUE AS WELL AS THE THOUGHT OF WHAT IF... PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AND MAKE NISSAN CORRECT THIS ISSUE WITH AN OTHERWISE TROUBLE-FREE CAR. *TR

I OWN A 2006 NISSAN MURANO AND TODAY AS I WAS TURNING ONTO A BUSY FREEWAY (WITH 2 OF MY GRANDCHILDREN IN THE CAR) , MY DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT CAME LOOSE FROM THE FLOOR OF THE CAR. THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR A CAR THAT HAS ONLY 53,000 MILES ON IT. I REVIEWED YOUR WEBSITE AND SAW HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS. I NOTICED THAT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. IS THIS BECAUSE THERE WERE NO DEATHS OR INJURIES? I WOULD HOPE A RECALL IS ISSUED BEFORE SOMEBODY HAS BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS. ARE YOU ANYWHERE NEAR A RECALL ON THIS SAFETY ISSUE? *TR
