I HAVE A 2010 MURANO AND FOR THE SECOND TIME IN 3 YEARS MY BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR HAVE TO BE REPLACED. SOUNDS IDENTICAL TO THE RECALL ON THE 2005. I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS TWICE IN 3 YEARS. NISSAN RECALL THIS!

POWER TRAIN, STEERING
KNOWN PROBLEM WITH NISSAN 2010 MURANO CVT AND TRANSFER CASE FAILURE. CVT / TRANSFER CASE FAILED AT 96,000 AND THEY KNOW ABOUT HIS CONSTANT PROBLEM AND DO NOTHING. TRYING TO DEAL WITH NISSAN HAS BEEN A DISASTER AND NO ONE WILL TALK TO ME ABOUT PAYING FOR THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. BOTH SWAY BARS BROKE BECAUSE OF THE VIBRATION AND SHAKING FROM THE CV SHAFT

SERVICE BRAKES
PRESSED BRAKE PEDAL DRIVING THRU ICY ROADS. THE CAR SKIDDED FOR A SHORT DISTANCE AS THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME SOFT AND WENT TO THE FLOOR. NOW THE BRAKE PEDAL IS SOFT ALL OF THE TIME. IT FEELS LIKE THE ABS IS PERMANENTLY ENGAGED. THE CAR IS STOPPING BUT THE BRAKES ARE VERY MUCH DIFFERENT THAN THEY HAVE EVER BEEN. I HAVE READ THAT THIS MAY BE AN ISSUE WITH THE ABS SYSTEM. IF SO, THIS MUST BE A DEFECT AS THE CAR SEEMS STUCK IN ABS MODE.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
DRIVING NORTH ON THE I-15 FREEWAY, APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH (THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT), IN THE FAST LANE, IT WAS EVENING, DARK OUTSIDE, AROUND 7 PM. THERE WERE NO CURVES IN THE ROAD AT THAT TIME. ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY SUN ROOF GLASS EXPLODED WITH A HUGE BANG SOUND, EXTREMELY LOUD, AND IMMEDIATELY THERE WAS A LOT OF WIND NOISE. I HAD THE INTERIOR SUNROOF SCREEN CLOSED, THANK GOODNESS. OTHERWISE I WOULD'VE BEEN COVERED IN TEMPERED GLASS. I PULLED OFF THE FREEWAY AS QUICKLY AND SAFELY AS I COULD, INTO A GAS STATION PARKING LOT TO EVALUATE THE SITUATION. UPON INSPECTION, I NOTICED THERE WAS APPROXIMATELY A 2' X 1' HOLE IN THE CENTER OF MY FRONT SUNROOM. SHARDS OF GLASS WERE EVERYWHERE, AND THE INTERIOR NETTING WAS SHREDDED. I WAS ABLE TO GET SOME PLASTIC AND DUCT TAPE TO COVER THE WINDOW ENOUGH SO THAT I COULD GET HOME. IT WAS ALSO A WINDY DAY.

THE CAR IS LOSING POWER AT RANDOM TIMES THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN WILL LURCH FORWARD AT FULL POWER. THIS HAS CAUSE ME TO ALMOST GET INTO NUMEROUS ACCIDENTS. THE DEALER HAS ADI THAT SINCE THERE ISNT A CODE COMING UP THAT THEY CANT DO ANYTHING. IVE READ ON THE WEB THAT MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AND THAT ITS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE BUT THAT NISSAN WONT ISSUE A RECALL.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, HI BUMPS IN THE ROAD, STARTED TO SLOW DOWN, PRESSED BRAKE PEDAL AND WENT TO THE FLOOR, PUMPED BRAKE PEDAL AND WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY STOP. WENT TO SHOP, THE SHOP CHECKED THE COMPUTER AND SAID THE ABS WENT OUT BECAUSE THE ABS HAD NOT BEEN USED, THEY RESET THE COMPUTER NOW I HAVE BRAKES. THE SHOP TOOK CAR OUT AND LOCKED BRAKES SEVERAL TIMES IN DRIVE AND REVERSE.

THE PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED OVER A PERIOD OF ABOUT 6 MONTHS. IT STARTED WITH THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR NOT UNLOCKING, ONLY ON OCCASION, WITH THE FOB. IT WAS A SLOW PROGRESSION BUT THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON THE DOOR WOULDN'T UNLOCK IT EITHER. IT SLOWLY PROGRESSED THE EFFECT THE OTHER DOORS AS WELL. BEFORE WE KNEW IT, NO DOORS WILL UNLOCK WITH THE FOB OR THE UNLOCK BUTTONS. WE NOW HAVE TO USE THE KEY TO UNLOCK THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND USE OUR HANDS TO UNLOCK THE OTHER DOORS.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ENCOUNTERED A LARGE POTHOLE A FEW YARDS FROM A STOP SIGN. UPON APPLICATION OF THE BRAKES TO STOP THE BRAKE PEDAL "WENT TO THE FLOOR" AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT SLOW DOWN (VEHICLE SPEED WAS APPROX. 25 MPH). EVASIVE ACTION HAD TO BE TAKEN IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO NAVIGATE THE INTERSECTION WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE DRIVER LIMPED THE VEHICLE TO HIS HOME IN ORDER TO TROUBLESHOOT THE PROBLEM. THE INDIVIDUAL WAS ABLE TO RESTORE THE BRAKE SYSTEM TO NORMAL BY HITTING THE ABS ACTUATOR AND CONTROL UNIT WITH A RUBBER MALLET.

POWER TRAIN
MY MURANO WAS DRIVEN BY MY WIFE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN SUDDENLY THE SUV WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE THE STREET BLOCKING TRAFFIC ON BOTH SIDES. WE TURNED THE CAR OFF SEVERAL TIMES AND RESTARTED BEFORE ABLE TO ACCELERATE. I HAD SUV TOWED TO LOCAL DEALER WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT CVT TRANSMISSION WAS DESTROYED. I HAS SERVICED TRANSMISSION FLUID 3 TIMES SINCE PURCHASE WITH 139,800 MILES. AFTER RESEARCHING THE NISSAN CVT{CONSTANT VARIABLE TRANSMISSION}, WE ARE NOT THE FIRST TO HAVE PROBLEMS. I MAY BE THE FIRST WITH A 2010 MURANO. I AM FEARFUL OF THIS VEHICLE AFTER IT $5000 REPAIR{OUT OF POCKET}, ESPECIALLY IF ON A BUSY INTERSTATE IN CHICAGO AREA DUE TO SUDDEN LOSE OF ACCELERATION.

BREAKS LOSE PRESSURE AFTER HITTING BUMPS OR WHEN DRIVING IN RAIN. IT HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES ALREADY. TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. IT HAPPENS FROM TIME TO TIME BUT VERY DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING. THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR MY CAR AND NOTHING THE DEALER CAN FIX BECAUSE THEY SAY NOTHING IS WRONG.

SERVICE BRAKES
THE BRAKES ON MY 2010 NISSAN MURANO FAILED TO WORK WHEN I WAS COMING TO A STOP AT A RED LIGHT ON A HIGHWAY. THE BRAKES LOST PRESSURE AND THE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND WAS SOFT. ACCORDING TO MY RESEARCH, THE NHTSA IS ALREADY INVESTIGATING THE 2009 NISSAN MURANO FOR THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. THE ABS ANTI-LOCK BRAKE IS DEFECTIVE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY TO REPLACE THIS VERY EXPENSIVE PART AS NISSAN NEEDS TO REPAIR IT AS IT IS A DEFECTIVE PART.

STRUCTURE:BODY, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED & FALLING APART. IF YOU TOUCH IT ITS STICKY & PIECES START TO FALL OFF OF IT. MY FRIENDS TOYOTA CAMRY WAS OLDER THAN MINE & THEY REPLACED HER ENTIRE DASHBOARD FOR FREE. IN ADDITION THE NUMBERS ON MY RADIO HAVE FADED & ALL AROUND THE RADIO THE SILVER PART IS PEELING. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT AFTER ONLY 5 YEARS OF OWING MY CAR THINGS LIKE THIS STARTED TO HAPPEN. THE DASHBOARD TO ME IS UNACCEPTABLE.

CVT TRANSMISSION SLIPPING WITH NO ERROR CODE, COULD NOT TELL WHAT THE ISSUE WAS UNTIL AT A POINT OF FAILURE CAUSING HIGH RPM CAR SLOWED DOWN IN TRAFFIC. JUST MADE IT HOME. WAITED UNTIL NEXT DAY TO GET IT TO THE DEALER, HAVE OWNED LOTS OF NISSANS IN THE PAST BUT NEVER ONE WITH A CVT TRANSMISSION EVEN ONE AT 400,000 MILES ON IT. TALKED TO DEALER MECHANIC AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH ALL NISSAN VEHICLES. $5,000 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION! WHERE'S THE RECALL?

MULTIPLE TIMES, OVER PAST FEW YEARS, AFTER 1 0R MORE HOURS AT HIGHWAY SPEED ( 70 - 80 MPH ) VEHICLE LOSES ALL ACCELERATION. OCCURS WITH CRUISE ON OR OFF. WILL MAINTAIN SPEED ON LEVEL ROAD. WILL LOSE SPEED ON ANY INCLINE.AFTER PULLING OFF HIGHWAY, TURNING OFF CAR AND RESTARTING HAS ALWAYS SOLVED PROBLEM; UNTIL TODAY ON I85 WHEN PROBLEM REOCCURRED AFTER A FEW MINUTES. FLOORING ACCELERATOR PEDAL HAS NO AFFECT. I WOULD THINK LACK OF ACCELERATION COULD BE A PROBLEM IF TRYING A AVOID A CRASH

WHEN ENTERING THE INTERSTATE ON JUNE 5, THE CAR FELT LIKE WIND HAD SHAKEN IT. MY FRIEND, WHO WAS DRIVING IT, PULLED OVER AND SAW THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR TIRE HAD TORN COMPLETELY AROUND THE TIRE. WHEN I TOOK THE TIRE TO ORDER A NEW ONE, I WAS TOLD IT LOOKED LIKE A FACTORY DEFECT ALTHOUGH NO RECALL WAS IN AFFECT AT THE TIME.

AIR BAGS
THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN ON SINCE I PURCHASED THIS USED VEHICLE FROM PARK PLACE LEXIS. I WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT TO A NISSAN DEALER. I AM CONCERNED THIS IS A DEFECT THAT SHOULD BE REPLACED BY NISSAN UNDER A RECALL AND DEFECTIVE AIRBAG. THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY FRONT DRIVER DOOR AND REAR PASSENGER DOOR DO NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK WHEN I PRESS THE BUTTONS ON MY KEY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT SOMEOME BREAKING INTO MY CAR AND STEALING ANYTHING. THIS ISSUE IS AN EXPENSIVE ONE TO FIX AND I KNOW A FEW PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. IVE BEEN TOLD ITS THE ACTUATOR TO THE PPWER LOCKS. ONCE ONE GOES THEN THEY ALL START GOING. WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS OUT OF POCKET BECAUSE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. NISSAN SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM FREE OF CHARGE WITH NO QUESTIONS ASKED. THIS HAPPENS WHEN MY VEHICLE IS IN PARK. THE POWER LOCK DOES NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE OR THE REAR RIGHT PASSENGER DOOR AT ALL. I HAVE TO OPEN THE DOORS JUST TO MANUALLY UNLOCK ANOTHER DOOR.
