WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT GOING 25 MPH HEARD A SNAP AND COULD FEEL THE BACK OF THE CAR FISHTAIL. WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE REAR SUBFRAME HAD RUSTED AND BROKE. REPAIRS WERE 4 I TO 6K AND THE CAR WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. IF I HAD BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN THIS HAPPENED I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED.

SEATS, SUSPENSION, WHEELS
DRIVING ON A LOCAL HIGHWAY DOING ABOUT 35 TO 40 MPH. PUT ON BRAKES AND THE ENTIRE REAR END BEGAN TO VIBRATE AND MAKE A RUMBLING NOISE. THE REAR TIRES ARE LEANING INWARD ON BOTH SIDES OF THE VEHICLES WHICH THROWS OFF THE STABALIZATION OF THE VEHICLE MAKING IT UNSAFE AND DIFFICULT TO STEER OR STOP. THE ENTIRE STABALIZATION BAR AND THE MOUNTING BRACKETS SUPPORTING IT RUSTED THROUGH ON THE LEFT SIDE AND DISLODGED AND THE RIGHT SIDE IS READY TO DISLODGE FROM THE BODY AT ANY TIME. THERE IS NOTHING TO SUPPORT THE BAR SO IT CAN INADVENTERLY FALL AND HIT THE HIGHWAY AND DO DAMAGE TO THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE CAR OR CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO FLIP. MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THEY CALLED NISSAN AND OF COURSE NO RECALL OR ASSISTANCE TO FIX THE VEHICLE WHICH IS OVER 2000 DOLLARS. THE SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE DROPS BLOCKING YOUR VISION UNEXPECTANTLY CREATING A VISION ISSUE AND CONCENTRATION ISSUE WHILE DRIVING. THE ELECTRICAL MOTOR ON THE DRIVERS SEAT IS STARTING TO FAIL AND THE SEAT WOBBLES AS IT IS BEING REPOSITIONED. ONCE REPAIR ARE COMPLETE AND I HAVE INVOICES, I WILL UPLOAD THEM UNDER A SEPARATE COMPLAINT.

AIR BAGS
AIR BAG LIGHTS ARE BLINKING AFTER A PERSON IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WAS MOVING AROUND IN THE SEAT. I HAD IT CHECKED AT A BODY SHOP AND A CODE CAME UP (B 1049). DETECTS A AIR BAG DIAGNOSIS SENSOR AND (OR) AIR BAG MODULE. THE CAR WAS RUNNING WHEN THE LIGHT CAME ON. I DON'T REMEMBER IF THE CAR WAS IN MOTION OR NOT.

SEATS
BEGINNING ABOUT 1 MONTH AGO I NOTICED SOME UNUSUAL NOISE AND MOVEMENT OF THE DRIVER'S SEAT WHILE DRIVING. THE PROBLEM WORSENED QUICKLY, MAKING A CRUNCHING METAL NOISE AND BECOMING INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE DURING DRIVING WITH THE LEFT REAR OF THE SEAT MOVING UP AND DOWN. IT NOW MOVES WITH ONLY SLIGHT MANUAL PRESSURE APPLIED TO THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SEAT. UPON INVESTIGATING THE STRUCTURE UNDER THE SEAT, I FOUND A SUPPORT BRACKET WELD HAS COMPLETELY SEPARATED. THE DRASTIC MOVEMENT OF THE SEAT SEEMS DANGEROUS, SLIGHTLY CHANGING THE DRIVERS POSITION BEHIND THE WHEEL, POSSIBLY ALTERING CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, THE POSITION BEHIND THE AIRBAG, AND CERTAINLY AFFECTING RESTRAINT IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. ONLINE RESEARCH SHOWS MANY, MANY SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THIS BRACKET WELD, BUT NISSAN HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL. THIS POOR QUALITY PART FAILED, COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE, INJURY, OR DEATH, BUT WILL REQUIRE ME TO PAY $1100 TO FIX.

FIRST IT WAS THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOORS AND THEN THE DRIVER SIDE FLOORS - FRONT AND REAR - THERE IS A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF WATER GETTING INTO THE CAR. I HAD IT LOOKED AT BY THE DEALER AND THEY ASSUMED IT WAS THE SUNROOF - CLEARED THE LINE. ISSUE STILL WENT ON. I DID NOT KNOW AT FIRST BECAUSE THE WATER GOT TRAPPED UNDER THE RUGS. I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER SHOP AND THEY CLEARED THE SUNROOF LINES. I HAD IT DETAILED AND THEN PUT MY RUGS BACK DOWN. THIS TIME I BELIEVE THERE WAS RESULTING MOLD IN MY CAR AND IS CAUSING SEVERE ALLERGY ISSUES FOR MYSELF AND MY SON.

POWER TRAIN
MY 2007 NISSAN MURANO SUDDENLY BEGIN ACTING LIKE IT WANTED TO SHUT OF WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. I WOULD PRESS THE GAS PEDAL ABOUT 3/4 DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND THERE WOULD BE A FEW SECOND LAG BEFORE THE RPM WOULD RISE AND THEN SUDDENLY JERK FORWARD. I COULDN'T GET MY SPEED ABOVE 30 MPH WITHOUT THE VEHICLE ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE GEARS ON IT OWN. THEN ONE DAY AS I'M GOING TO THE GROCERY STORE I CAME TO A STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I SLOWLY ACCELERATED AND SUDDENLY MY CAR JERKED ABRUPTLY AND CAME TO A HALT. AT THIS POINT THE VEHICLE WAS INOPERABLE. THE MOST EMBARRASSING PART IS THAT I WAS 1/4 OF THE WAY IN THE INTERSECTION AND I WAS HOLDING UP THE TRAFFIC ALL THREE WAYS. A GOOD POLICE OFFICER STOPPED BEHIND ME AND CALLED A TOWING COMPANY. I HAD TO PAY OVER $100 TO GET MY CAR TOWED. ON TOP OF THAT I HAD TO TOW IT TO THE TRANSMISSION PLACE TO HAVE IT CHECKED SINCE THE CAR WOULD START AND REV, BUT NOT MOVE FORWARD. THE TRANSMISSION SHOP SAID THE CVT BELT PREMATURELY BROKE. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AMONG VEHICLES WITH CVT TRANSMISSION, ESPECIALLY THE NISSAN MURANO'S. MY CAR HAS A LITTLE OVER 100,000 MILES ON IT. WITH THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME ISSUE I'M SURPRISED NISSAN HAS NOT INITIATED A RECALL. THIS VEHICLE COULD HAVE FAILED ON THE HIGHWAY AND IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.
