CAR WON'T START. TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP FOUR TIMES IN ONE MONTH AND CONTINUES TO HAVE ISSUES. ORIGINALLY TOLD IT WAS THE IPDM MODULE WHICH WAS REPLACED. ABOUT A WEEK AND HALF LATER THE ENGINE WOULDN'T START AGAIN BUT THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS, RADIO AND HEAT/AIR WOULDN'T SHUT OFF. WAS TOLD THIS TIME THAT IT WAS A FAULTY BATTERY WHICH WAS REPLACED. AFTER PICKING IT UP AND DRIVING LESS THAN 10 MILES AND SITTING FOR A FEW HOURS IT WOULDN'T START AGAIN. EVERY SINGLE LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD IS ON AND AGAIN THE ENGINE WON'T START OR CUT OFF THE LIGHTS. HAD IT TOWED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND 4 DAYS LATER WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS DUE TO A RUSTY BOLT OF SOME SORT THAT WAS LOOSE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. 2 DAYS LATER IT WOULDN'T START AGAIN. A FEW HOURS LATER THE CAR STARTS BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. CAR WAS TOWED TO DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND IT HAS NOW BEEN FOUR DAYS WITH NO UPDATES FROM THE DEALERSHIP. ALSO - DRIVERS SIDE SUNVISOR IS BROKEN AND WON'T STAY UP WHICH IMPAIRS VISION. AFTER ALL OF THESE TRIPS TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID IT WOULD COST OVER $200 TO FIX. I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT UNTIL I REVIEWED AND NOTICED THAT MANY OTHER HAVE THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE SUN VISORS SO THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT.

DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WON'T STAY UP. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE CAR IS MOVING OR STATIONARY. THIS IS DANGEROUS! THE VISOR OBSCURES VISIBILITY, AND YET WHEN I NEED IT, IT WON'T STAY IN THE POSITION I NEED IT TO, IN ORDER TO BLOCK SUN GLARE. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH MURANOS FOR OVER A DECADE, AND NISSAN HAS CONTINUOUSLY REFUSED TO ISSUE A RECALL.

POWER TRAIN
DRIVING MOUNTAIN TERRAIN ON HWY 87 NORTH IN THE DESERT HEAT NEAR PHOENIX THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY. WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP WE WERE TOLD THAT IT WAS SOMETHING THAT THEY SEE FREQUENTLY WHEN DRIVING LONG DISTANCES, UP MOUNTAINS OR IN EXTREME HEAT. ALSO TOLD BY NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS REP THAT SHE WAS WORKING ON SEVERAL SIMILAR CASES, BUT A RESOLVE IS MADE ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS. UPON DOING RESEARCH NISSAN HAS HAD MANY PROBLEMS WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSIONS. WE FEEL THAT THE TRANSMISSION NOT WORKING PROPERLY IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN, AS YOU CANNOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY IF NEED BE, DRIVING ON THESE MOUNTAIN TERRAINS IS DANGEROUS ENOUGH WHEN YOU CAN ACCELERATE PROPERLY. NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS HAS YET TO SAY WHETHER THEY CAN PROVIDE A RESOLUTION.

SUN VISOR ON BOTH DRIVER N PASSANGER FAILS TO STAY UP. ONCE IN A WHILE THE VISOR JUST COMES DOWN. PUSH IT BACK UP, AND IT MAY GO UP HALFWAY, OR TO TOP WITH A LOUD BANG, THEN SAGS AGAIN. DANGEROUS WHEN YOU ARE IN TRAFFIC AND NOT SAFE WHEN IT HAPPENS! CLEARLY A PROBLEM WITH ALMOST ALL MURANO'S. CALLED NISSAN AND NO HELP BUT TO SELL NEW ONES. WE HAVE JUST 26500 MILES ON OUR MURANO.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR DROOPS AND DOESN'T STAY IN THE STOWED POSITION. INSTEAD, IT FALLS WITHOUT WARNING AND OBSTRUCTS THE DRIVER'S VIEW WHICH IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT PLACES THE DRIVER, PASSENGERS AND OTHER MOTORISTS AT RISK. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUES WITH THE MURANO AND IS NOT ISOLATED TO THE 2014 MODEL YEAR. DO A SEARCH ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE FOR MURANO SUN VISOR AND YOU WILL SEE MORE THAN A DOZEN ISSUES REPORTED. AND THOSE ARE THE ISSUES THAT WERE REPORTED VIA THE NHTSA WEBSITE, IMAGINE HOW MANY ACTUALLY ARE OUT THERE UNREPORTED! THERE IS NO EXCUSE WHY NISSAN OR THE NHTSA HASN'T INVESTIGATED THIS FURTHER AND ISSUED A RECALL. LOOKING THE OTHER WAY REGARDING THIS MATTER IS NO LONGER AN OPTION, THE MANUFACTURER AND NHTSA NEED TO TAKE ACTION IMMEDIATELY. THE DEALER TYPICALLY WANTS >$400+ TO REPLACE THIS SUN VISOR AND MANY CONSUMERS HAVE HAD IT REPLACED ONLY TO NEED TO REPLACE IT AGAIN! THIS IS SIMPLY UNACCEPTABLE AND IS EVIDENCE THAT THE PART IS POORLY ENGINEERED. I CHALLENGE NISSAN TO STEP UP AND DO THE RIGHT THING AND ISSUE A RECALL AND REPLACE THESE DOWNRIGHT DANGEROUS SUN VISORS BEFORE THERE IS A FATAL ACCIDENT AND LITIGATION. THE MURANO IS MARKETED AS AN UPMARKET PRODUCT AND IF THE TRIM INSIDE FALLS SHORT OF THAT IN TERMS OF QUALITY AND IS A FLAWED DESIGN THAT COULD POTENTIALLY RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO OBSTRUCTED VIEW, THIS MUST BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. WE WILL BE TAKING OUR VEHICLE TO THE DEALER TO BE REPAIRED BUT DO NOT WISH TO PAY THE EGREGIOUS PRICE FOR A REPLACEMENT THAT WILL LIKELY FAIL AGAIN DUE TO A DESIGN DEFECT. AGAIN, I CALL ON NHTSA AND NISSAN TO TAKE ACTION AND ADDRESS THIS ISSUE IMMEDIATELY! NHTSA IS MANDATED TO PROTECT MOTORISTS AND HERE IS A CLEAR CASE WHERE THEY CAN STEP IN AND TAKE ACTION AND PREVENT HARM TO CONSUMERS.
