I WAS TOLD THAT THE REAR OF THE CAR COULDN'T BE ALIGNED.. AFTER LOOKING FOR MYSELF DISCOVERED THAT THE SUBFRAME WAS TOTALLY ROTTED. THE CAR CANNOT BE DRIVEN AND I AM SCREWED. THIS SHOULD BE FIXED BY NISSAN. THIS IS NOT A SMALL DEFECT. THIS CAN KILL PEOPLE. THE CAR IS STRUCTURALLY UNSAFE AND GOD ONLY KNOWS HOW LONG IT HAS BEEN LIKE THAT.

TAKATA RECALL: WE BOUGHT OUR NISSAN MURANO (2007) 16 MONTHS AGO. IT HAS BARELY 100K MILES ON IT AND THE ENGINE IS BURNING OIL CONSTANTLY. MY HUSBAND IS ADDING OIL TO IT EVERY OTHER DAY. PLUS THE TRANSMISSION IS RATTLING CONSTANTLY WHEN PRESSING THE GAS AND THE CAR HAS STALLED AT LEAST 5 TIMES SINCE WE'VE HAD IT, ONE TIME ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. WE HAVE YOUNG KIDS AND THIS IS OUR FAMILY CAR AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT.

STRUCTURE:BODY, SUSPENSION, WHEELS
I WAS PULLING OUT OF A GAS STATION WHEN A FRIEND POINTED OUT THAT THE MUFFLER/EXHAUST PIPES OF VEHICLE WERE HANGING VERY LOW TO THE GROUND. MECHANIC INSPECTED IT AND REAR SUBFRAME RUSTED THROUGH AND BROKEN. THE REAR WHEELS ARE WORN ON THE INSIDE AND ARE MISALIGNED. THEY ARE TILTING IN TOWARDS EACH OTHER. THE VEHICLE WAS DEEMED UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOT A RECALL AND THAT I WOULD NEED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT AND FOR THE REPAIR. I WAS GIVEN A CASE # AND ASKED TO PROVIDE PROOF OF OWNERSHIP. I RECENTLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM A FAMILY MEMBER. AS THE CAR WAS INOPERABLE I HAD AAA TOW IT TO THE NEAREST NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THE DEALER QUOTED ME AN ESTIMATE REPAIR COST OF $5,279; PARTS AND LABOR.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I HAD TO REPLACE MY ALTENATOR 3 TIMES. I BOUGHT THE CAR 2 YEARS AGO AT 90,000 MILES. WHEN IT FIRST WENT OUT, I BOUGHT ONE FROM AUTOZONE, THEN 4 MONTHS LATER IS WENT OUT. I HAD A WARRANTY THRU AUTOZONE ON THE PARTS SO THE PART WAS REPLACED BUT I HAD TO COVER THE LABOR COST. 2 MONTHS LATER THE ALTENATOR REPLACE IT AGAIN BUT I WANTED LABOR COST COVERERD THIS TIME. THEY AGREED TO COVER THE PART AND LABOR. THERE MUST BE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS. I VE READ OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME CAR HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. IF NISSAN DOESN'T FIX THIS FOR FREE, I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER OF THEIR CARS BECAUSE I CAN'T BELIEVE MULTIPLE TIMES. I HAD TWO DIFFERENT MECHANIC SO IT NOT THE PERSON, IT'S THE CAR, I BELIEVE SO. THE OTHER PROBLEM I'VE HAD IT THAT THE AIR DUCK INTAKE HOSE KEEPS DISCONNECTING, IT WILL CAUSE MY CAR TO MISS FILE AND RUN VERY RUFF, LIKE POOR PERFORMANCE. IT CAN MAKE THE CAR SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING OR AT A STOP SIGN.

WAS CONCERN ABOUT THE SEAT IT GOES,UP BUT LEAKS,DOWN AND ,ROCKS LIKE IT IS BROKE, THE AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS FLASHING AND WONT STOP,JUMPY ACCELERTION, AND REPLACING FRONT BRAKE CAN BE COSTLY. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE AND ACCORDING TO INTERNET BY VIN# PRINTED OUT NO RECALLS, SHOWS NOW I SEE IT HAD RECALLS WHAT CAN I DO TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF? DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE SEAT FELT LIKE IT WAS CHANGING THE HEIGHT AND I HAD TO KEEP READJUSTING IT, I THEN STOPPED AND WENT TO GET OUT AND IT ROCKED. I WEIGH 100LBS SO I COULD NOT HAVE BROKEN IT.

AIR BAGS, SEATS
MY VEHICLE WAS NOT MOVING AT THE TIME THE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG "OFF" LIGHT DOES NOT WORK UNLESS I MOVE THE CONNECTOR UNDER THE FRONT RIGHT PASSENGER SEAT. THEN THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT WILL SHUT OFF AFTER ABOUT 10 SECONDS. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM LISTED FOR THE RECALL BUT MY VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM FOR MANY MURANO'S NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.

ENGINE
I WAS TRAVELING DOWN THE INTERSTATE, GOING ABOUT 70 MPH. MY VEHICLE DIDN'T WANT TO RUN PROPERLY. I WAS UNAWARE OF THE ISSUE, I THOUGHT IT WOULD STRAIGHTEN UP AFTER A FEW MINUTES. WELL, MY CAR JUST SHUT DOWN. I WAS LUCKY I MADE IT TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY BEFORE AN ACCIDENT HAPPENED. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE SHOP IN THE TOWN I RESIDE IN. HE DIAGNOSED IT, AND SAID NISSAN MURANOS WERE KNOWN FOR THIS TO HAPPEN. HE PUT IT BACK TOGETHER, AS IT HAD SEPARATED. I DID SOME PERSONAL RESEARCH ON THE PROBLEM, AND SAW THERE WAS A RECALL CAMPAIGN FOR THE GENERATION 1 MURANOS (2003-2007), I THEN DID A VIN # CHECK, AND THERE WAS NO KNOWN RECALLS FOR MY VIN. I ALSO SAW DURING RESEARCH, THAT THERE WERE THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES RECALLED FOR THIS ISSUE. I REACHED OUT TO NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS, THEY MADE ME AWARE THERE WAS NOTHING THAT COULD BE DONE DUE TO THE AGE AND MILEAGE OF THE VEHICLE. I THEN MADE THEM AWARE THIS WAS A BIG SAFETY HAZARD FOR MYSELF, AND OTHER MOTORISTS. THEY THEN TRANSFERRED THE CASE TO A REGIONAL CASE SPECIALIST. THE REGIONAL SPECIALIST, AGAIN, TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I THEN, EXPLAINED THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS PROBLEM. THE REGIONAL SPECIALIST THEN TRANSFERRED ME TO A SUPERVISOR. THE SUPERVISOR THEN CALLED ME BACK, AND TOLD ME YET AGAIN, THERE WAS NOTHING THAT COULD BE DONE. THIS IS JUST UNBELIEVABLE TO ME THAT JUST BECAUSE, BY POLICY, THEY WON'T COVER REPAIRS THAT COULD LEAD TO THE EXTENT OF TAKING SOMEONES LIFE. I HAVE TOLD THEM EVERYTHING I INCLUDED IN THIS REPORT. PLEASE ADVISE. *JS

ENGINE
MY 2007 NISSAN MURANO CONTINUES TO STALL AFTER REPLACING THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR 3 TIMES. MY ISSUES SEEM TO FIT THE DESCRIPTION DEFECTIVE INTAKE AIR DUCTS. THIS CAUSES, WHICH MY CAR DOES, TO CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. ACCELERATION IS BAD AND EVEN WORSE WHEN I USE MY AIR CONDITIONING. I NO LONGER TAKE THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY AFTER CUTTING OFF DRIVING TO STOP SIGNS AND GREEN LIGHTS IN TRAFFIC. *TR
