LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
THE DOOR LOCK ON THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR MAY OR MAY NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK WITH THE KEY REMOTE OR THE DOOR LOCK BUTTONS ON THE OUTSIDE LATCH AND INSIDE DOOR. THIS BECOMES A SAFETY ISSUE WHILE DRIVING, AS I LIKE TO KEEP MY DOORS LOCKED IN THE EVENT OF AN ATTEMPTED CARJACKING. *TR

WE HAVE HAD ANOTHER ISSUE CONCERNING OUR 2004 NISSAN MURANO. THIS TIME IT IS THE DRIVER SEAT THAT HAS BROKEN. THE NISSAN DEALERS KNOW OF THIS ISSUE AND HAVE NOT OFFERED ANY HELP OTHER THAN WANTING TO CHARGE $1000.00 FOR THE SEAT FRAME ASSEMBLY. A SEAT THAT HAS BROKEN! A VERY INTEGRAL PART OF THE CAR THAT SHOULD BE STRONG AND FREE FROM DEFECTS. IT WOULD BE JUSTICE IF SOMEONE COULD MAKE THIS COMPANY OWN UP TO THE TERRIBLE CRAFTMANSHIP THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS CONSTRUCTED WITH. *TR

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 50MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MURANO LOST ACCELERATION, GAS PEDAL WASN'T WORKING AT ALL. SOME HOW I PULLED OVER AND TURN IGNITION OFF AND BACK ON AND IT WORKED FINE. NOW WHEN IS A STOP AND GO SITUATION IT DOES THE SAME THING WON'T ACCELERATE UNTIL LIKE 5 SECONDS LATER AND IN A VERY DANGEROUS WAY. I HEARD LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AND IT'S LIFE TREATING SITUATION. *TR

POWER TRAIN
AFTER DRIVING A WHILE IN STOP & GO TRAFFIC THE VEHICLE HESITATES AND DOESN'T ACCELERATE WHEN YOU DEPRESS THE GAS PEDAL. THEN AFTER A FEW SECONDS THE ENGINE REVS UP AND THE VEHICLE LURCHES FORWARD AND SOMETIMES STALLS IN TRAFFIC. ONCE THE VEHICLE STALLS, IT TAKES A LONG TIME BEFORE YOU CAN RESTART THE ENGINE. THIS SITUATION HAPPENS ALMOST EVERY TIME I'M IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, WHICH IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS ON THE FREEWAYS AND WHEN MAKING LEFT TURNS AT INTERSECTIONS. I'VE WORKED WITH MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP BUT THEY HAVEN'T COME UP WITH A SOLUTION, AND IT'S BECOMING VERY EXPENSIVE FOR ME TO HAVE THEM RESEARCH THE PROBLEM AND NOT FIND A FIX. *TR

I WAS REAR ENDED WHILE STOPPED FOR A LIGHT AND THE DRIVER'S SEAT-BACK FELL BACKWARDS AS A RESULT OF THE IMPACT. THE SPEED LIMIT IN THE AREA IS 50MPH AND I AM NOT SURE HOW FAST THE OTHER DRIVER WAS GOING. THE CAR HAS BEEN SCRAPPED BY THE OTHER DRIVER'S INSURANCE CARRIER. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE SEAT -BACKS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO MOVE ON IMPACT. *KB

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
AUTOMATIC LEFT SIDE DOOR LOCK DOES NOT FUNCTION AUTOMATICALLY. FRONT RIGHT SIDE AND LEFT REAR DOOR LOCKS ONLY WORK INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE BEEN TOLD DOOR ACTUATORS NEED TO BE REPLACED. PROBLEM CANNOT BE FIXED WITHOUT COMPLETE REPLACEMENT. THIS APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM EITHER WITH FAULTY DESIGN OR PRODUCTION. INABILITY TO AUTOMATICALLY LOCK DOORS FROM THE INSIDE COULD PRESENT SAFETY PROBLEM. *KB

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
WHEN GETTING OUT OF CAR TO FILL GAS AND UPON CLOSING DOOR, THE DOORS ARE AUTOMATIC LOCKING, I HAD CHILDREN IN THE CAR. THIS CAR HAS CONTINUE TO DO THIS AND IS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. AS A FEMALE I WANT TO KNOW THESE LOCKS CAN BE COUNTED ON TO LOCK OR NOT WHEN CORRECT. A CHILD COULD EASILY GET INTO CAR AND DOORS LOCK ON THERE OWN. THIS IS KNOWN ISSUE WITH NISSAN. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, POWER TRAIN
VEHICLE HAD NEW BRAKES - DISKS AND PADS ADDED IN EARLY MAY 2011. JULY 29 2011 DRIVING 20 + MPH THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SOUND LIKE IT HAD A FLAT TIRE. IMMEDIATELY TOOK VEHICLE TO THE SHOP, GLANCING AT THE CAR, MECHANIC SAID MAY BE A TIRE ROD, BUT WANTED TO LOOK AT IT MORE IN DEPTH. HE STATED THAT THE NOISE WAS COMING FROM SOMETHING LOOSE OR CRACKED IN THE TRANSFER CASE. HE ADVISED ME THAT AT SOME POINT TRANSFER CASE WILL BUST AND ALL 4 WHEELS WILL LOCK UP. HE QUOTED ME AT LEAST $2500 FOR REPAIR. THE LOCATION OF THE TRANSFER CASE MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO REPAIR OR SERVICE. WHY WILL NISSAN NOT STAND BEHIND THIS PRODUCT. THERE IS NO RUST ON THE VEHICLE, BUT WITH 150,000 MILES ON IT NOW, IS IT WORTH THE MONEY TO REPAIR? I HAVE ALREADY REPLACE THE INTAKE MANFOLD WHICH CRACKED IN NOVEMBER. WHAT WILL BE THE NEXT PART TO BREAK - THE ENGINE ITSELF? LOVE MY MURANO, BUT THE COMPANY SHOULD BACK THEIR PRODUCT. MY MURANO HAS BEEN DRIVEN SHORT DISTANCES A FEW TIMES SINCE BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO BE ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY "4 TIRES LOCK UP". *TR
