ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STRUCTURE:BODY
NISSAN MURANO DOOR ACTUATORS HAVE FAILED ON 2 OF 4 DOORS, LEAVING ME UNABLE TO ENTER/EXIT MY VEHICLE WITH THE REMOTE. IN ADDITION, I CANNOT OPEN THE TRUNK OF THE VEHICLE UNLESS THE PASSENGER DOOR ACTUATOR IS WORKING, WHICH IT DOES NOT. THE INSIDE DOOR LOCKS DO NOT MOVE, SO I DO NOT KNOW IF MY CAR IS EVER LOCKED OR UNLOCKED, AGAIN, SAFETY CONCERN. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS, AS I KNOW OTHER OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED AND NISSAN CONTINUES TO IGNORE THIS AS AN ISSUE!!! *TR

WHILE TUNING SLIGHTLY AND LOOKING BACKWARDS TO BACK OUT MY DRIVEWAY, HEARD A LOUD CRACK AND FELT MY SEAT FALL BACKWARD. I BRAKE AND STOPPED MY CAR. I THEN FELT MY SEAT FALL FORWARD.I EXITED MY CAR AND NOTICED THE LEFT FRONT OF MY DRIVES SEAT SITTING ON THE FLOOD. AND THAT MY AIRBAG INDICATOR HAD COME ON. AFTER LOOKING UNDER THE SEAT I NOTICED THAT ONE OF THE BARS UNDER THE SEAT HAD SNAPPED. I MANAGED TO TIE SOME WIRE AROUND TO KEEP IT IN PLACE. AFTER TAKING MY CAR IN FOR SERVICING,MY MECHANIC INFORMED ME THAT THE AUTO HAS TO BE REPAIRED BEFORE ANY STATE INSPECTION CERTIFICATE COULD BE THE ISSUED. I ASKED HOW MUCH THIS WOULD COST, AND AFTER SO RESEARCH I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO QUITE A FEW OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME AUTO AND THAT THIS IS A NISSAN ONLY PART WHICH COST $1,0000 FOR THE PART. AFTER SEARCHING THE WEB I HAVE LEARNED THAT IS COMMON AMONG THE NISSAN 2002-2007 AND YET NISSAN WILL NOT RECALL! *TR

ENGINE, VISIBILITY/WIPER, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING OUR 2009 NISSAN MURANO IN SEPT 2012 A LOUD NOISE WAS HEARD AT TIMES IN THE FLOOR BOARD...IT WAS DISCOVERED TO BE A BROKEN MOTOR MOUNT...THIS WAS REPLACED UNDER 30 DAY WARRANTY FROM PLACE OF PURCHASE. THE SUNROOF COVER ALSO WAS DEFECTIVE AS IT WOULD NOT OPEN COMPLETELY AT TIMES AND ALSO REQUIRED REPLACING. SINCE THIS TIME IN 2013 THE WIPERS DO NOT WORK PROPERLY AT ALL TIMES...THIS HAS NOT BEEN RECREATED FOR A TECH TO INSPECT....SOMETIMES THEY DO NOT GO AS FAST AS SHOULD IF HEAVY RAIN AND OTHER TIMES GO TOO FAST IF BARELY DRIZZLING, THIS IS ON THE INTERMITTENT FUNCTION. FEBRUARY 2014 WAS DUE TO TAKE IN FOR ROUTINE OIL CHANGE THAT DAY AND SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON THAT MORNING...WAS ADVISED NEEDS NEW CATALYTIC CONVERTER, WAS AT 85K, MANF. WARRANTY WENT OUT AT 80K, EXTENDED WARRANTY WE PURCHASED AND PAID EXTRA FOR WAS TO COVER UP TO 150K; HOWEVER, DOES NOT COVER THIS PART. NISSAN SAYS NOTHING ON THEM, FUNNY THEY ARE THE ONES WHO MADE THE VEHICLE, AND REGARDLESS OF THIS BEING A USED VEHICLE (WE ARE THE SECOND OWNER) THIS IS NOT SOMETHING YOU CAN TELL IN ADVANCE IS GOING OUT...WE HAVE NOT HAD ANY NOISE PRIOR AND THIS WAS FIRST TIME LIGHT CAME ON. THIS IS VERY COSTLY AND SOMETHING THAT HAS TO BE FIXED IN ORDER TO PASS INSPECTION OR I WILL NOT HAVE A VEHICLE TO DRIVE. *TR

I GOT INTO MY CAR TO DRIVE SOMEWHERE, AND NOTICED THAT MY SEAT WAS LOOSE AND SHIFTING BACK AND FORTH - FROM SIDE TO SIDE. I THOUGHT THAT THERE WAS A LOOSE BOLT, AND SO I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP ON 2/21, AND I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A BROKEN LIFTER ASSEMBLY - AND THAT THE REPAIR WOULD BE $625. I IMMEDIATELY ASKED IF THERE WAS A RECALL BECAUSE THE DEFINITELY APPEARED TO BE A "SAFETY ISSUE", AND I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOT. I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH ON LINE, AND I SEE WHERE THIS IS AND HAS BEEN A VERY COMMON COMPLAINT FOR SEVERAL YEARS, FOR WHAT APPEARS TO BE FOR MODELS 2003 THRU 2007, AT LEAST. I FOUND PAGES AND PAGES OF COMPLAINTS FROM MANY PEOPLE. WE ALL HAVE THE SAME OPINION THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT, AND SHOULD BE REPAIRED AT THE EXPENSE OF NISSAN. I HAVE OWNED MANY DIFFERENT MODELS OF CARS IN MY LIFETIME, AND A SEAT BREAKING IN THIS MANNER HAS NEVER HAPPENED. MY HUSBAND IS A FIREFIGHTER, AND HIS FIRST RESPONSE WAS CONCERN THAT THE WAY THE SEAT SHIFTS NOW, COULD CAUSE A SEATBELT TO INJURE OR POSSIBLY DECAPITATE A PERSON DURING A CAR CRASH. HE HAS SEEN MANY UNUSUAL THINGS HAPPEN IN HIS CAREER, SO I DON'T BELIEVE THIS IS FAR FETCHED FROM THE REALITY OF SOMETHING TERRIBLE TO HAPPEN TO A PERSON DRIVING THEIR CAR WITH A BROKEN DRIVER'S SEAT. I WAS PREPARED TO PAY FOR A BOLT TO BE REPLACED, NOT TO HAVE TO PAY FOR MY SEAT TO BE COMPLETELY REPAIRED, IN ORDER TO KEEP ME AND MY FAMILY SAFE. A SEAT SHOULD BE MADE TO ENDURE THE DAY IN AND DAY OUT OF THE WEIGHT OF PEOPLE - LARGE AND SMALL, FOR THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. I AM UNDER 200LBS, AND MY HUSBAND IS 250LBS. WE BOUGHT THE CAR WITH THE MINDSET THAT IT WOULD BE STRONG AND DURABLE TO LAST FOR MANY, MANY YEARS TO COME, WITHOUT THE WORRIES THAT OUR SEATS COULD BREAK SO EASILY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
CAR WOULD NOT START, EVERYTHING WORK IN THE CAR, BUT IT WOULD START, PUT A NEW BATTERY IN THE CAR AND IT WORK. A COUPLE OF DAYS WENT BY (CAR STARTED EVERY TIME) ONE DAY CAR DID THE SAME THING GOT ANOTHER BATTERY FOR IT AND CAR STARTED AND RAN, 3RD TIME WAS DOWN TOWN THE CAR WOULD NOT RUN IT STARTED BUT WOULD NOT MOVE. GOT IT HOME FINALLY STARTED THE CAR THE NEXT DAY CAUSE I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS THE SECURITY ON WHY IT WOULDN'T DRIVE. I STARTED THE CAR TO LET IT WARM UP, WENT OUT 10 MIN. LATER AND THE CAR WAS NOT RUNNING. GOT ANOTHER BATTERY CAR STARTED TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL CENEX THEY CHECK THE CAR AND SAID THE ALTERNATOR WAS NOT WORKING. THEY DID A TEST, WHEN I WOULD TURN MY LIGHTS ON AND HEAT THE BATTERY WAS DRAINING. MY SON CHARGED THE LAST BATTERY THAT WAS IN MY CAR AND IT TOOK THE CHARGE AND STILL IS, SO 3 BATTERY CANT BE BAD. CALLED NISSAN TO SEE ABOUT THE RECALL ON MY NISSAN, NO MY CAR WAS NOT, I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY WOULD NOT PUT MY CAR ON THE LIST. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED AND NOT SURE WHERE IT CAME FROM MY CAR IS DOING THE SAME THING EVERYONE IS COMPLAINING ABOUT, IF THE ALTERNATOR IS BAD COVER IT..PLUS THE CLOSES NISSAN DEALER IS 3 TO 4 HOURS AWAY. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY THE SEAT MADE A POPPING NOISE AND COLLAPSED TOWARD THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WHICH IN TURN ALSO FORCED MY BODY TO LEAN INTO THE DOOR AND CAUSED ME TO MOMENTARILY JERK THE STEERING WHEEL BARELY AVOIDING A COLLISION. THE SEAT IS NOW BROKEN AND FORCES YOU TO SIT LEANING INTO THE DOOR AS THERE IS NO LONGER ANY SUPPORT. EVERY TIME I TURN OR IF I COME TO A QUICK STOP THE SEAT BOUNCES LIKE A RUBBER BAND MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SAFELY CONTROL THE VEHICLE. I CAN NOT IMAGINE THAT THIS IS A SAFE WAY TO DRIVE A VEHICLE AND I WOULD LIKE TO THINK IT IS NOT THE WAY THAT THE MANUFACTURER TESTED OR INTENDED THE VEHICLE TO BE OPERATED. I'VE DONE A LOT OF RESEARCH ON THE ISSUE AND FOUND THAT THE FAULTY BRACKET IS EXTREMELY COMMON IN ALL THE 2003-2008 NISSAN MURANOS. I ALSO FOUND THAT NISSAN MAKES A BRACKET THAT IS MUCH MORE STURDY AND THEY CHARGE YOU ALMOST $1000 FOR THE REPAIR. THIS SOUNDS LIKE THEY ARE KNOWINGLY ALLOWING THEIR FAULTY AND HAZARDOUS PARTS TO BE INSTALLED AT THE ASSEMBLY LINE INSTEAD OF USING THE UPGRADED BRACKET THAT IS ONE SOLID PIECE OF METAL. THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY TO AVOID ANY FURTHER POTENTIAL HAZARDS. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EQUIPMENT
BOTH FOBS (CAR KEYS) WENT BAD ON MY 2009 NISSAN MURANO, UNABLE TO LOCK AND OPEN DOORS USING THE FOB. I HAD TO REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE FOB TO UNLOCK THE DOORS. AT NIGHT THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE AS I HAD TO STRUGGLE TO TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE CASE IN THE DARK. REPLACED BATTERIES IN THE FOB AND DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. ON JANUARY 22, 2014 I MAILED A LETTER TO NISSAN OF AMERICA ASKING FOR REIMBURSEMENT OF THE NEW FOB I HAD TO PURCHASE. NISSAN WAS UNABLE TO OFFER FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE WITH THE REPLACEMENT OF THE FOB AS THE VEHICLE BEING OUTSIDE OF THE NEW VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY. AS I EXPRESSED MY CONCERN TO NISSAN THAT A CAR KEY SHOULD NEVER HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THESE FOBS ARE MANUFACTURING DEFECTS I UNDERSTAND REPLACING A BATTERY BUT NOT THE ENTIRE FOB. THE COST OF ONE FOB WAS $239.61. *TR

AIR BAGS
I WAS DRIVING AT 25 MPH AND SUDDENLY THE AIR BAGS WENT OFF WITHOUT A COLLISION (RIGHT AND LEFT CURTAIN AND LEFT AND RIGHT FRONT SEAT). I'VE NEVER BEEN ON A CRASH OR HIT ANYTHING IN ANY WAY TO ACTIVATE THE AIR BAGS. THE "AIR BAG LIGHT" HAS NEVER BEEN ON EXCEPT FOR NOW AFTER THE INCIDENT. THANKFULLY I WAS DRIVING AT LOW SPEED SO I WAS ABLE TO COME TO A STOP WITHOUT ANY FURTHER INCIDENTS. MOST OF ALL, I WASN'T IN THE CAR WITH MY KIDS, I CAN'T IMAGINE HOW THAT COULD BE. I BOUGHT THIS CAR BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE. NOBODY TOLD ME IT WAS GOING TO SELF DESTRUCT IN 10 YEARS, POPPING LIKE A POPCORN. I WENT TO THE NISSAN DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T HELP ME BECAUSE IT'S NOT UNDER WARRANTY. REALLY???? I'M TALKING SAFETY HERE! THIS IS NOT WEAR & TEAR. IF I KNEW I WAS GOING TO SPEND 30K ON A CAR THAT WOULD SELF DESTRUCT IN 10 YEARS I WOULDN'T HAVE SPEND A PENNY! THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND IT MUST BE FIXED. NISSAN TREATED ME LIKE IF I WAS THE ONLY CASE EVEN WHEN I COULD SEE CLEARLY ON THE INTERNET THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN HAPPENING BEFORE. SO THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE SELLING? AND WORST OF ALL, THEY (NISSAN) DIDN'T SEEMED INTERESTED TO INVESTIGATE THIS INCIDENT. DEFINITELY "SAFETY FIRST" IS NOT WHAT THEY HAVE IN MIND. THIS IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. THEIR SOLUTION WAS FOR ME TO GO TO MY INSURANCE COMPANY. *TR

I WAS TURNING THE CORNER INTO MY DRIVEWAY AND MY SEAT ROCKED SIDEWAYS. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP ON FRIDAY, SATURDAY MORNING THEY TOLD ME PART # 87450+A IS BROKEN AND CANNOT BE FIXED. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I WEIGH ONLY 125 POUNDS, THIS PART MUST BE WEAK TO BEGIN WITH. IF THERE IS A RECALL BECAUSE OF SEATBELTS THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL WHEN A SEAT BECOMES DETACHED FROM YOUR VEHICLE BECAUSE OF A PART MALFUNCTION AS WELL. *TR

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT 45 MPH AND HEARD A SNAPPING NOISE AND FELT MY DRIVERS SEAT WOBBLE. WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO THE PARKING LOT OF MY GRANDSON'S SCHOOL AND GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND NOTICED THAT MY DRIVERS SEAT WAS TITLED TO THE LEFT AND ROCKING BACK AND FORTH. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE STEEL FRAME OF THE SEAT NEEDED TO BE COMPLETELY REPLACED. FORTUNATELY FOR ME THAT I DID NOT HAVE AN ACCIDENT WHERE I COULD HAVE SERIOUSLY BEEN INJURED OR WORSE YET THAT I INJURED SOMEONE ELSE. THE COST FOR THE REPAIR WAS $1450. I CONTACTED NISSAN CUSTOMER CARE WHO FOR ASSISTANCE WITH FUNDING OF THIS REPAIR AND WAS TOLD THAT SEATS ARE ONLY WARRANTED FOR 3 YEARS AND THEY WERE UNWILLING TO PROVIDE ANY MONETARY ASSISTANCE. I DO NOT CONSIDER THIS AS BEING NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR OF A VEHICLE AND AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED THAT NISSAN IS NOT WILLING TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. I APPEALED THIS DECISION WITH NISSAN CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY ARE STILL UNWILLING TO ASSIST ME WITH FUNDING. WHAT A SHAME, THEY HAVE CERTAINLY LOST A VALUED NISSAN CUSTOMER. CHECKING THE INTERNET, SPECIFICALLY YOUR WEBSITE NHTSA, IT APPEARS THAT THERE HAVE BEEN AN EXTREME LARGE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS OF THE MURANO DRIVERS SEATS BREAKING. WHY HAS THIS ISSUE NOT BEEN DEFINED AS A FACTORY DEFECT AND A REAL SAFETY ISSUE. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS WILL IT TAKE, TO MAKE NISSAN TO ISSUE A RECALL. SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING AND AM HOPING THAT NHTSA WILL DO AN INVESTIGATION AND FORCE NISSAN TO TAKE THIS ISSUE SERIOUSLY. A CAR WITH ONLY 69 THOUSAND MILES ON IT AND 7 YEARS OLD SHOULD NOT NEED A DRIVERS SEAT REPLACED UNLESS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. HOPE TO HEAR SOMETHING FAVORABLE IN THE NEAR FUTURE. NOT THAT THIS MATTER, BUT I AM A SENIOR US CITIZEN AND I DO NOT INTEND TO BE TREATED IN THIS MANNER, NOR SHOULD ANYONE ELSE. PLEASE HELP *TR

STEERING, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVING WELL AND THE FUEL SENSOR WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP. THE LOWER CONTROL ARMS WERE REPLACED AT THAT TIME, HOWEVER THE FUEL SENSOR WAS NOT AS IT WAS AN ADDITIONAL EXPENSE WE COULD NOT PAY FOR OUT OF POCKET. THESE ARE BOTH KNOWN PROBLEMS TO NISSAN AND HAVE ALREADY BEEN RECALLED ON OTHER SUV'S OF THE SAME MODEL YEAR. IN SPEAKING TO NISSAN THERE IS NOTHING THEY ARE WILLING TO DO TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE OR TO REIMBURSE US FOR THE REPAIR ALREADY MADE. *TR

SEAT BRACKET BROKE WHEN MY WIFE WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS CAUSED THE SEAT TO TILT FORWARD. I CALLED THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY WANTED 1036.00 DOLLARS FOR A PART, FOR SAFETY REASONS SHOULD BE RECALLED. IF ONE OF THESE BRACKETS(THEY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH FRONT AND BACK) BREAKS DURING A WRECK, THE SEAT ANGLE COULD EFFECT THE EFFECTIVENESS OF AIRBAGS. MY WIFE IS SCARED TO DRIVE IT. THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES. CALLED NISSAN CORP. THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO BECAUSE THERE IS NO ACTIVE CAMPAIGN TO RECALL. *TR

SEAT BRACKET BROKE CAUSING SEAT TO WOBBLE SIDE TO SIDE, WEAKENING OTHER POINTS OF ATTACHMENT. I HAD THE SEAT BRACKET WELDED TWICE SO FAR AND IT HAS REBROKEN TWICE. INTERNET RESEARCH REVEALED THAT THESE BRACKETS BREAK VERY FREQUENTLY IN 2003-2008 NISSAN MURANOS, EVEN THOSE WITH VERY LOW MILEAGE. NISSAN RECOGNIZES THAT THIS IS A FAULTY DESIGN, AS THEIR REPLACEMENT PART IS MUCH STRONGER AND TOTALLY DIFFERENT, YET NO RECALL. QUITE A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN YOUR SEAT COMES LOOSE WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING! SEATS SHOULD NOT DISCONNECT FROM THE CAR WITH NORMAL WEAR. I WEIGH 170 POUNDS, NOT ABOVE AVERAGE FOR A FULL GROWN ADULT DRIVER. *TR

THE DRIVER SEAT FRAME RAILING (LEFT SIDE OF FRAME) HAS BROKEN CAUSING THE SEAT TO DROP DOWN A FEW INCHES. THE LEFT OF THE SEAT CAN ACTUALLY BE LIFTED UP DUE TO THE FRAME SEPARATION. THE SEAT IS NO LONGER BEING ATTACHED TO TWO TRACKS BUT ONLY ONE. I'D LIKE TO ADD THAT THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS DEFECT HAS OCCURRED. THE FIRST TIME AND SECOND TIME DEFECTS ARE EXACTLY THE SAME. *TR
