SUSPENSION, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
RECENTLY MY WIFE HAD BEEN INFORMING ME OF A PROBLEM ON OUR 2007 NISSAN MURANO WAS UNSTABLE WHEN BEING DRIVEN, AND MAKES LOUD CLUNKING NOISES WHEN TURNING AND REVERSING AT LOW SPEED. I DROVE THE SUV MYSELF ON DECEMBER 2ND, AND WHILE TURNING A CORNER AT A MAJOR INTERSECTION IT WENT OVER A SMALL BUMP OR MANHOLE COVER. AT THAT TIME THE REAR END OF THE CAR FISHTAILED, AND I NEARLY LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE REST OF THE DRIVE HOME THE VEHICLE FELT UNSTABLE WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH ON A DRY, SMOOTH, AND STRAIGHT ROAD. UPON ARRIVING HOME, ABOUT 1 MILE FROM WHERE THE INCIDENT HAPPENED I NOTICED THE DRIVER SIDE REAR WHEEL WAS CAMBERED INWARDS ABOUT 10-15 DEGREES. I CONTACTED MY MECHANIC BY PHONE, AND HE TOLD ME TO NOT DRIVE THE CAR AND HAVE IT TOWED TO HIS INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP FOR AN INSPECTION. WHEN HE LIFTED THE VEHICLE OFF THE GROUND HE DISCOVERED THE PROBLEM. HE SENT ME THE ATTACHED PICTURE, AND SAID THE VEHICLE'S SUBFRAME HAS 'EXTREME' RUST WHICH IS UNUSUAL FOR ONLY BEING 12 YEARS OLD, AND THAT IT IS 'NOT SAFE TO DRIVE'. ADDITIONALLY I HAVE READ MANY ARTICLES OF OTHER NISSAN VEHICLES HAVING PROBLEMS WITH CORROSION UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE FOR STATES THAT USE ROAD SALT IN THE WINTER. CURRENTLY THERE IS A REPAIR CAMPAIGN GOING ON WITH NISSAN ALTIMA CORROSION ISSUES, AND I AM CONCERNED MANY OTHER MURANO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS MINE. I HAVE ALSO CONTACTED NISSAN, AND OPENED A SAFETY CONCERN WITH THEM. THE REFERENCE NUMBER IS 38078953 NISSAN SAYS THERE ARE NO RECALLS OR CAMPAIGNS WITH THIS 2007 NISSAN MURANO FOR CORROSION.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY MURANO SUDDENLY SHUTS OFF W/O WARNING IF I AM STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT ETC. ALL THE LIGHTS COME ON BY THEMSELVES (INTERIOR LIGHTS/EXTERIOR LIGHTS/HEADLAMPS) AND THE ONLY WAY TO SHUT THEM OFF IS TO REMOVE THE BATTERY TERMINALS FROM THEIR POSTS. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE CAR IS PARKED AND THE ENGINE IS OFF. THERE IS A HIGH-PITCHED RINGING SOUND WHENEVER THE FRONT DRIVERS DOOR IS UNLOCKED. WHILE I'M DRIVING AND THE FOB IS IN MY POCKET, AN ALARM BEGINS TO SOUND AND ALERTS THAT THE KEY-FOB IS NOT INSIDE THE VEHICLE; I MUST STOP, SHUT OFF THE ENGINE, REMOVE THE ACTUAL KEY FROM THE FOB AND INSERT IT INTO THE IGNITION AND RESTART THE VEHICLE (BATTERY IN THE KEY-FOB HAS BEEN CHANGED SEVERAL TIMES AND THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS). THE VEHICLE BATTERY HAS ALSO BEEN REPLACED.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MY FAMILY HAS OWNED A 2007 NISSAN MURANO FOR NEARLY 8 YEARS. IN THE LAST YEAR, MY WIFE HAS EXPERIENCED EXTREME TRAUMA AS SHE HAS HAD THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY DIE ON HER WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF FREEWAYS, HIGHWAYS, AND RESIDENTIAL ROADS. WE HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE TAKEN IN AND INSPECTED BY MULTIPLE NISSAN DEALERSHIPS AND EACH VISIT HAS ONLY RESULTED IN THEIR RECOMMENDATION OF ROUTINE MAINTENANCE BEING SUGGESTED, SUCH AS TRANSMISSION FLUID EXCHANGE, BRAKE REPAIR, OR BATTERY REPLACEMENT. OUR MURANO HAS RECENTLY DECIDED TO REPEAT THESE SAME ISSUES AFTER OVER A YEAR OF NORMAL FUNCTION. MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE NORMALLY AND ALL OF A SUDDEN SHE BEGAN TO LOSE POWER UNTIL THE CAR CAME TO A STOP AND THE FUNCTION OF THE VEHICLE STOPPED DUE TO WHAT APPEARED TO BE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. AFTER ASSESSING THE ISSUE, I ATTEMPTED TO JUMP START THE VEHICLE WITH JUMPER CABLES, WHICH ALLOWED THE MURANO TO START, BUT ONCE IT WAS INDEPENDENTLY IDLING, IT WOULD AGAIN LOSE POWER AFTER AN ATTEMPT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. I AM HEAVILY CONCERNED FOR THE WELFARE OF MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER AS THEY DRIVE THIS CAR DAILY. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIPS THAT I TYPICALLY RELY ON FOR THESE CRITICAL REPAIRS HAVE BEEN NO HELP AND I AM AT A LOSS FOR WHY THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH SUCH A LONG TIME FRAME BETWEEN ISSUES. I HOPE THAT NISSAN WILL ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM AND RECTIFY ANY PRIOR REPAIRS THAT HAVE BEEN SUGGESTED AS A RESOLUTION TO THE ISSUE THAT MAY VERY WELL HAVE NOT RESOLVED THE TRUE ISSUE AT HAND. I AM IN DIRE NEED OF ANSWERS AS TO WHY A WELL MAINTAINED VEHICLE WOULD BE FINE ONE MINUTE AND THEN COMPLETELY INOPERABLE THE NEXT. THE VEHICLE HAS HAD MANY COMPONENTS REPLACED AND MAINTAINED TO PROLONG THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE AND WITH 180K MILES HAS THE POTENTIAL TO CONTINUE FOR MANY MORE. I DON'T WANT TO POUR MONEY INTO THIS ISSUE THAT NISSAN NEEDS TO ADDRESS, AS I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING DEALT WITH THIS!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TRAVELING EAST ON HIGHWAY 287 THROUGH TOWN MY CAR LOST ALL POWER SO I COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN THE MIDDLE OF HEAVY TRAFFIC. THE CAR WAS STILL RUNNING BUT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHILE IN GEAR ALTHOUGH IT WOULD IN PARK OR NEUTRAL. EVENTUALLY IT WOULD QUIT AND ONLY START WITH A JUMP THEN RUN FOR A LITTLE WHILE. THE NEXT DAY I WENT TO GO PICK UP MY CAR ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD HAVING SOMEBODY GIVE ME A JUMP AND THEN IT WOULDN'T START AT ALL. SO THEN I WENT AND GOT A NEW BATTERY AND IT RAN FOR AS LONG AS IT TOOK TO RUN THAT BATTERY DOWN. I REPLACED ALTERNATOR A YEAR AGO WHEN I WAS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I'M STUCK I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. DOES ANYBODY HAVE A SOLUTION?

IF I WOULD HAVE HIT ONE SMALL BUMP ON THAT HIGHWAY I WOULDN'T BE HERE TO FILE THIS COMPLAINT. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE TO NISSAN! THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED!!! AND MADE SURE ALL VEHICLES ARE SAFE FOR ANYONE TO BE IN. MY VEHICLE IS 12 YEARS OLD NO WAY SHOULD THAT FRAME EVEN BE ABLE TO SNAP NOT IN ONE BUT TWO SPOTS ON THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED. I MY CAR OVERHEATING WAS A BLESSING BECAUSE THAT COULD HAVE BEEN DEADLY.

DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND ALL OF A SUDDEN STARTED SOUNDING LIKE SOMETHING WAS BINDING. WHEN I GOT A CHANCE TO LOOK UNDER THE VEHICLE, I CAN CLEARLY SEE THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL HAS SHATTERED, BROKEN COMPLETELY APART AND CAN SEE THE GEARS INSIDE. I GOOGLED 07 MURANO REAR DIFFERENTIAL AND THE EXACT SAME THING KEEPS COMING UP. THE CURRENT REAR DIFFERENTIAL LOOKS TO HAVE A YELLOW GREASE MARK ON IT. INDICATES TO ME THE PART HAS BEEN REPLACED BEFORE AND THE REPLACEMENT DID THE SAME THING.
