I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. I HEARD A POP AND THE SEAT TILTED TO THE LEFT. MY FIRST INSTINCT WAS TO SWERVE AND I NARROWLY MISSED HITTING THE CENTER DIVIDER. ONCE I CALMED DOWN AND RECOVERED, I DROVE HOME. I PROBABLY SHOULD NOT HAVE DONE THAT. WHEN I CAME HOME, I LOOKED UNDERNEATH THE SEAT AND OBSERVED THE SEAT BRACKET ASSEMBLY CRACKED AT THE WELD. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS VERY COMMON. I AM NOT SURE WHAT VERY MEANS. COST OF REPAIR IS $1700-2500. HE RECOMMENDED GOING TO A BODY SHOP TO HAVE THE PART WELDED BACK TOGETHER. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
HAD NOTICED THAT THE GAS GAUGE READ EMPTY AND THE FUEL LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD JUST PUT GAS IN THE VECHICLE 2 DAYS BEFORE. I LOOKED FOR A LEAK AND THERE WAS NOTHING NOTICABLE. I FILLED THE TANK, RETURNED TO THE CAR TO CHECK THE GAUGE AND NOTICED THAT IT READ 3/4. I STARTED DRIVING AND AS I WAS DRIVING IT FLUCTUATED BETWEEM FULL AND 3/4. I TALKED TO MY WIFE ABOUT THE ISSUE AND SHE HAD NOTICED THAT THE GAS GAUGE HAD BEEN READING INACCURATELY THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS. *TR

POWER TRAIN
KEPT NOTICING SMELL OF BURNING OIL. WAS TOLD THE AXLE SEAL WAS LEAKING. AFTER THE 2ND AXLE SEAL WAS REPLACED, THEY SAID IT WAS A TRANSFER CASE SEAL THAT WAS LEAKING AND I WOULD NEED TO HAVE THAT REPLACED AT APPROXIMATE COST OF $1500. AT THAT TIME I TOLD THE DEALER THAT DURING COLD WEATHER I HAD ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION (WHICH HAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY TO 120,000), AND I'M SURE THE TRANSMISSION HAS CAUSED THE TRANSFER CASE PROBLEMS, BUT, OF COURSE, UPON THE DEALER TESTING THE TRANSMISSION THEY SAID THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS WORKING FINE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE TRANSFER CASE LEAK WAS NOT SOMETHING THAT HAD TO BE REPAIRED IMMEDIATELY AND THAT AS LONG AS THE FLUID LEVELS WERE CHECKED FREQUENTLY I COULD WAIT TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. YESTERDAY (4 MONTHS LATER) I TOOK THE CAR TO ANOTHER NISSAN DEALER AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE AXLE SEAL AND THE TRANSFER CASE SEAL WERE BOTH LEAKING AND THAT THERE WAS A SERVICE BULLETIN ISSUED DETAILING THAT THE TRANSFER CASE SHOULD BE REBUILT. THE COST NOW WILL BE APPROXIMATELY $1800, TO FIX THE SEALS AND REBUILD THE TRANSFER CASE. AFTER SEARCHING ONLINE ABOUT THIS ISSUE I'VE REALIZED THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH NISSAN MURANO'S AND THAT NISSAN IS IGNORING THE SAFETY ISSUES INVOLVED WITH THIS PROBLEM AND NOT ISSUING A RECALL. WITH SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE ON THE MURANO'S AN INVESTIGATION NEEDS TO BE DONE AND NISSAN NEEDS TO RECALL THESE CARS FOR THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS. *TR

SEATS, SEAT BELTS
WHILE ADJUSTING THE DRIVERS SIDE POWER SEAT, SOMETHING IN THE POWER SEAT MECHANISM APPEARS TO HAVE BROKE AND THE SEAT IN NOW UNEVEN, AND FEELS LIKE IT IS COMING OFF THE RAILS ESPECIALLY WHEN GOING INTO A CURVE, WHERE YOU MUST HANG ONTO THE STEERING WHEEL FOR BALANCE WHICH CAUSES UNDUE ANXIETY FOR FEAR OF LOSING CONTROL. THE SEAT FEELS LIKE IT IS OFF THE RAILS, AND WHEN I USE THE POWER SEAT ADJUSTER, IT ONLY LIFTS ONE SIDE OF THE SEAT. THIS HAPPENED OVER 2 YEARS AGO AT ABOUT 45,0000 MILES. I NOW HAVE 70,000 MILES. I HAVE LEARNED IF YOU KEEP THE SEAT ADJUSTED SO THAT ITS CLOSEST TO THE FLOOR, THEN THERE IS LESS OF A FEELING THAT THE SEAT IS COMING OFF, THAN IF THE SEAT IS ADJUSTED TO A HIGHER POSITION. I HAVE CHOSEN NOT TO GET THIS REPAIRED SOLELY DUE TO THE $1,100 EXPENSE WHICH IT APPEARS TO COST TO REPAIR THIS SAFETY ISSUE. IT'S AN ANNOYING ISSUE, IT REMINDS ME OF THE FORD I HAD AS A TEENAGER THAT I HAD TO USE ROPE TO KEEP THE DRIVER DOOR SHUT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY WIFE HEARD POP AND DRIVER'S SEAT BROKE DIPPING TO THE LEFT AT REAR OF SEAT. I'VE INVESTIGATED THIS MATTER AND SEAT WILL COST OVER $1,000 TO REPLACE AND IS A COMMON PROBLEM. CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY IF THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THIS IS NOT SUBJECT TO A RECALL. FROM THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS IT LOOKS TO ME AS THOUGH THE METAL USED TO MAKE THE SEAT BRACKET IS NOT STURDY, OR DEFECTIVE METAL IS BEING USED. *TR
