ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
MY MURANO STARTS SOMETIMES, AND SOMETIMES IT WON'T START AT ALL.NISSAN DIAGNOSTIC WAS ELETRICAL ISSUES, THEY CHANGED THE IPDM, CHANGED THE ELETRICAL DASHBOARD, IT WORKED FOR 11/2 WEEKS, AND WON'T START AGAIN. THIS CAR IS LESS THAN 50,000 MILES. APPARENTLY NISSAN CAN'T FIX THIS PROBLEM. I'M DESPERATE FOR HELP, CAUSE I'M STILL PAYING FOR THIS CAR. IT'S CURRENTLY IN MY GARAGE, IT HAS STOPPED ME THREE TIMES ON THE ROAD, AND TWICE, IN MY GARAGE COULDN'T START

WHILE DRIVING WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED ON MY 2017 NISSAN MURANO, A MESSAGE APPEARS ON DASH: UNAVAILABLE FRONT RADAR OBSTRUCTION. THE CRUISE CONTROL DISENGAGES AT THAT POINT, REQUIRING THE DRIVER TO USE THE ACCELERATOR. AT THAT POINT, I THINK THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING IS ALSO DISABLED. THE CAR CURRENTLY HAS ABOUT 38000 MILES ON IT AND IS 2 YEARS OLD. THE FREQUENCY OF THE PROBLEM HAS INCREASED OVER TIME. I CHECKED TO MAKE SURE THE SENSOR AT THE FRONT BUMPER IS CLEAN. THIS ERROR WILL HAPPEN ON DAYS WITH NO RAIN OR SNOW. AT FIRST, IT ERRORED WHEN EXITING A TUNNEL, BUT NOW IT OCCURS RANDOMLY (BUT SO FAR ONLY WHEN USING CRUISE CONTROL). SINCE IT IS OVER THE 36000 MILE WARRANTY, NISSAN REQUIRES A DIAGNOSIS FROM THE DEALER. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM THAT SHOULD HAVE A RECALL. I ALSO RECENTLY RENTED A 2018 NISSAN ALTIMA WHILE ON VACATION, AND IT WAS REALLY BAD. IT ERRORED ABOUT EVERY 5 MINUTES, EVEN WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL. NISSAN HAS A RECALL FOR THE ROGUE MODEL. ACCORDING TO INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET, THE PROBLEM IS A SENSOR MANUFACTURED BY BOSCH.

POWER TRAIN
WHILE ACCELERATING MIXED BETWEEN PULLING FROM ZERO MPH UPWARDS OF 40MPH THE VEHICLE HAS A HIGH PITCHED SQUEALING SOUND. THIS HAPPENS ON ANY ROADWAY WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN WHEN THE BRAKES ARE BEING USED, ONLY WHILE ACCELERATING AND PUSHING THE THROTTLE. MY TRANSMISSION WILL SOMETIMES HESITATE OR 'THINK' WHEN SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO ANOTHER GEAR. SOMETIMES IT IS VERY LOUD WAS A LARGE 'THUNK' SOUND COMING FROM UNDERNEATH THE CAR. THE CAR ALSO SEEMS TO MAKE A WHINING NOISE WHEN SHIFTING OUT OF DIFFERENT GATES. (PARK, REVERSE, DRIVE, ETC) I HAVE HAD THE DEALERSHIP CHECK MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY SAY IT IS NORMAL OPERATION. I'VE TAKEN OUT OTHER NISSAN MURANO'S IN THE SAME MODEL AND IT DOES NOT DO THIS.

THIS HAS HAPPEN NUMEROUS TIMES, THE TRANSMISSION A CVT HAS BIG PROBLEMS THAT HAS CAUSED MY WIFE AND I GREAT CONCERN. WHEN WE GO TO TAKE OFF AND REALLY HAVE TO STEP DOWN ON THE PEDDLE BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC FLOW. WE HAVE SEMI'S TRAVELING ON OUR ROAD AND OTHER ROADS, WHEN THIS OCCURRED THE FIRST TIME AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR WE THOUGHT IT WAS BAD GAS, BUT SINCE THEN WE HAVE BEEN IN CRITICAL SITUATIONS BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT WORKING. THE TRANSMISSION IN QUESTION IS VERY UNSAFE IN THIS VEHICLE IT ALMOST STOPS FOR A FEW SECONDS. WE HAVE SECONDS AWAY FROM 18 WHEELERS CRASHING INTO US, OR CARS WHERE YOU HAVE TO PULL OUT IN TRAFFIC. WHAT BOTHERS ME IS MY WIFE DRIVES THIS VEHICLE AT LEAST ONCE A DAY. SOMETIMES WITH MY DAUGHTER, AND GRANDSON. WHERE WE LIVE BIG TRUCKS HAULING WOOD TO THE PAPER MILL HAVE ALMOST CRASHED INTO US ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, SAME WITH CARS.SOME EVEN SHOWING ROAD RAGE WHEN MY WIFE IS MINDING HER OWN BUSINESS, AND SAME WITH ME. THIS PROBLEM HAS CAUSED US TO KNOW THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS DOING THIS ON A REGULAR BASIS. WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION, WE HAVE EVEN BEEN PUT IN THE MEDIUM BECAUSE OF THIS CVT PROBLEM, AND WE BELIEVE BY LOOKING ON THE WEB NOW, AND ASKING THE MECHANIC WE ALWAYS USE HAS SAID THE SAME. WE HAVE HAD THIS CAR SINCE JULY 2018. WE KNOW NOW IT ISN'T BAD GAS, OR THE INJECTORS NEEDING CLEAN, OR THE TRANSMISSION OIL NEEDING CHANGE. WE HOWEVER KNOW THAT WITH THIS SAFETY PROBLEM IT WILL BE JUST A MATTER OF TIME IF NOT US BUT SOMEONE DRIVING THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE WILL EITHER GET HURT, OR MAY START CAUSING PEOPLE TO DIE. WE LIVE RIGHT OFF OF A TWO LANE ROAD, SOMETIMES IT IS WHEN WE ARE PULLING OUT, SOMETIMES WHEN WE ARE GOING ON THE EXPRESSWAY WAY, SOMETIMES WHEN PASSING SLOWER TRAFFIC, OR ON A CITY INTERSECTION. IT ACTS AT FIRST LIKE THE ENGINE IS GOING TO STALL, SECONDS COUNT IN DRIVING, WE DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR ANYMORE.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS ACCELERATING, THE WHEELS SPUN A LITTLE AND THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL MALFUNCTIONED.

LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP IS PUTTING UP BARRIERS TO MY RECALL REPAIR. ON 2 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, I WAS TOLD THAT 'WE DON'T DO RECALL REPAIRS ON THE WEEKEND'. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEIR LABOR COSTS ON THE WEEKEND ARE MY PROBLEM. I CALLED ON A MONDAY MORNING WHEN I WAS ON VACATION FROM WORK. NOT ONLY COULD THE SERVICE MANAGER NOT CONFIRM FOR ME WHETHER THEY HAD THE NECESSARY PARTS ON HAND TO REPAIR MY RECALL...SHE ALSO SAID THEY ONLY DO IT BY APPOINTMENT AND NEED 1 WEEKS NOTICE!! SO I AM BEING EXPECTED TO BRING MY CAR IN TWICE (ONCE FOR THEM TO 'LOOK AT IT AND CONFIRM I'M ON THE RECALL LIST, AND A 2ND TIME TO GET THE REPAIR DONE). HOW IS IT THAT THE MANUFACTURER MAKES A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT, YET I AM EXPECTED TO JUMP THROUGH ALL THESE HOOPS, TAKE TIME OFF OF WORK (VACATION TIME) TO MEET ALL OF THEIR TERMS OF FIXING A MISTAKE THAT NISSAN MADE. BUT HEY, THEY WERE SURE TO GET THOSE NOTICES MAILED OUT SUPER FAST, TO GIVE ME THE IMPRESSION THEY CARED ABOUT MY SPOUSES LIFE/DEATH RISK EVERY DAY WHEN SHE DRIVES A FLAWED PRODUCT TO/FROM WORK. SO UNACCOMMODATING AND ARROGANT OF NISSAN TO PUT THEIR CUSTOMERS THROUGH THIS GAUNTLET.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I PURCHASED A NEW 2017 NISSAN MURANO A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. AFTER 6 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP, WHILE IN MOTION ON ANY ROAD OR HIGHWAY MY CAR WILL BEEP AND SHOW "FRONT RADAR UNAVAILABLE DUE TO OBSTRUCTION". IT THEN TURNS OFF MY ABILITY TO HAVE CRUISE CONTROL AND REMOVES AEB AND FEB FEATURES. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE, IT LOOKS LIKE SEVERAL NISSAN OWNERS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE BECAUSE OF A FAULTY RADAR. NISSAN REPLACED THE RADAR ONCE BUT THAT RADAR IS NOW BAD TOO. THE AEB, FEB, AND CRUISE CONTROL WILL NOT WORK IN MY CAR. NISSAN STATES THEY WILL NOT ASSIST IN REPLACING THE RADAR AGAIN BECAUSE THEY HAVE REPLACED IT BEFORE. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED WITH A POTENTIAL RECALL IN MY OPINION.

SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
MY AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM AND CRUISE CONTROL DISABLES ITSELF. COMPONENT FROM BOSCH. THE FLAW IN THE RADAR UNIT ALLOWS THE SENSOR TO FREQUENTLY DEACTIVATE ITSELF, DISABLING CRUISE CONTROL AND EMERGENCY BRAKING. WHEN THE SENSOR TURNS ITSELF OFF, DRIVERS ARE SEEING A WARNING IN THE DASH THAT SAYS, 'FRONT RADAR UNAVAILABLE DUE TO OBSTRUCTION.' THIS HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES IN A GIVEN DAY.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), STEERING
THE CAR WAS IN MOTION AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AND LOST ABILITY TO STOP, STEER, AND RESTART. WHEN CAR CAME TO A STOP I TRIED TO START THE CAR AND IT STALL. CAR WAS FULL OF GAS AND ALL FLUID LEVELS ARE FINE. THE CAR HAS 20K MILES SO NO MECHANICAL PROBLEMS EXIST. THIS HAPPENED IN LAS VEGAS WHILE THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS 108. I SAW THE SAME ISSUE WITH OTHER NISSAN CARS IN LAS VEGAS PER YOUTUBE VIDEOS. PLEASE HELP! I AM AFRAID IT MAY DO SO AGAIN AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THIS HAPPENED TODAY AND AFTER LEAVING THE CAR PARKED FOR 2 HOURS STARTED WORKING FINE.

VEHICLE HAS 35,700 MILES ON IT. BOUGHT THE VEHICLE JUNE OF 2018 WITH 30,000 MILES ON IT. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH OR FASTER AND YOU GO AND TRY TO PASS SLOWER TRAFFIC WHETHER IT'S ON THE HIGHWAY OR FREEWAY AND YOU TURN THE WHEEL TO CHANGE LANES WHILE PRESSING DOWN ON THE ACCELERATOR TO SPEED UP, THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT DOWN SHIFT AND SPEED UP. THE RPM GAUGE INCREASES AND THE ENGINE REVS HIGH BUT THE VEHICLE DOES NOT INCREASE IN SPEED. AFTER YOU STRAIGHTEN OUT THE STEERING WHEEL THE VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN DOWN SHIFTS AND TAKES OFF. IT IS DANGEROUS FOR PEOPLE PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC TO PASS CAUSE THE VEHICLE WILL NOT INCREASE IN SPEED AND IT LEAVES YOU TOOLING ALONG IN ONCOMING TRAFFIC. IT IS UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY AND I TOOK VEHICLE INTO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD EVERYTHING WAS FINE AND THERE WASN'T ANYTHING THAT COULD BE DONE BECAUSE THERE WASN'T ANY TROUBLE CODES STORED IN THE VEHICLES SYSTEM. IT DOES THIS AT LEAST ONCE PER MONTH AND NO TROUBLE LIGHTS COME ON INSIDE THE VEHICLE. I HAVE MADE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS TO THE DEALER ABOUT THIS AND NOTHING HAS COME OF IT. I HAVE MADE MULTIPLE INQUIRIES ABOUT THIS ONLINE TO NISSAN DIRECTLY AND VEHICLE MECHANIC TYPE SITES. I HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING BACK FROM NISSAN THEMSELVES BUT OTHER MECHANIC TYPE SITES HAVE COME TO THE SAME CONCLUSION, IT HAS TO BE THE A COMPUTER MODULE OR TRAFFIC CONTROL SYSTEM. SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE COMPUTER SYSTEM OR MODULES THEMSELVES. NO TROUBLE CODES THEREFORE NOTHING IS WRONG, IS NISSAN'S STANCE. FOR WHAT I HAVE READ, OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THIS CVT TRANSMISSIONS. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM FOR ME AND MY FAMILY AND NISSAN HAS NOT BEEN ANY HELP, WHICH SURPRISES ME. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. IF YOU PULL OUT TO PASS IN ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND THE VEHICLE WON'T ACCELERATE IT IS DANGEROUS. IF YOU PULL INTO.THE LEFT LANE ON THE FREEWAY TO PASS AND CAN'T, IT IS DANGEROUS!

SERVICE BRAKES, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY CAR HAS A FRONT EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM. THE SENSOR FOR THIS SYSTEM IS LOCATED AT THE FRONT OF THE CAR, UNDERNEATH ONE OF THE HEAD LIGHTS. THE SENSOR DETECTS WHEN A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF YOU HAS STOPPED. AS YOU GET CLOSER TO THE VEHICLE, IF YOU DO NOT STOP, THE CAR WILL SOUND A 3-BEEP ALERT NOTIFYING YOU TO STOP. IF YOU STILL DO NOT STOP, THE CAR WILL APPLY THE BRAKES AND FORCE THE CAR TO STOP TO PREVENT AN ACCIDENT. ONE NIGHT, I WAS DRIVING HOME ON A CITY STREET, WHEN THE 3-BEEP ALERT SOUNDED, AND THE DASHBOARD DISPLAY STARTED FLASHING RED AND WHITE LIGHTS. THERE WAS A MESSAGE ON THE DISPLAY STATING THAT A CRASH WAS IMMINENT. THEN THE BRAKES ENGAGED SUDDENLY, AND THE CAR ALMOST CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. THE BRAKES ENGAGED SO HARD AND SO QUICKLY, THAT IT THREW ME FORWARD IN THE SEAT. AT THE TIME, THERE WAS NO CAR IN FRONT OF ME COMING TO A SUDDEN STOP AND NO CRASH WAS IMMINENT. THE CLOSEST CAR TO ME WAS 2-3 CAR LENGTHS AHEAD, AND IT HAD NOT STOPPED. THANKFULLY, THE STREET WAS NOT BUSY AT THE TIME, AND THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE, AND THERE ARE CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS, BUT NISSAN WON'T ISSUE A RECALL. I'VE TAKEN MY CAR TO 2 NISSAN DEALERSHIPS AND THEY WON'T REPLACE THE SENSOR. THE FIRST DEALER TOLD ME MY SENSOR WAS DIRTY, BUT THAT DOESN'T EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED. ACCORDING TO THE OWNER'S MANUAL, IF THE SENSOR IS DIRTY, THERE WILL BE A MESSAGE ON THE DASHBOARD DISPLAY INDICATING THE SENSOR IS OBSTRUCTED, AND THE FRONT BRAKING SYSTEM WILL TURN OFF. THAT IS NOT WHAT HAPPENED TO ME. THE SECOND NISSAN DEALER DID A SOFTWARE UPDATE ON MY CAR AND RESET THE SENSOR. I KEEP BEING TOLD TO BRING THE CAR BACK IF THE ISSUE HAPPENS AGAIN, BUT THIS IS NOT THE KIND OF ISSUE YOU WANT TO WAIT TO HAVE HAPPEN AGAIN. WHAT IF I AM ON A BUSY STREET OR THE HIGHWAY? I COULD HAVE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS.

FORWARD RADAR WHICH CONTROLS THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM AND CRUISE CONTROL STOPS WORKING FOR NO REASON - STATES RADAR NOT AVAILABLE, OBSTRUCTION, WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION. UNIT HAS BEEN REPLACED ONCE AND JUST STARTING NOT WORKING AGAIN. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE CRUISE CONTROL GOES OFF AND THE CAR SLOWS DOWN QUICKLY. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY CONCERN FOR CARS BEHIND YOU AS BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT COME ON WARNING THAT YOU ARE SLOWING DOWN.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 15 - 20 MPH ON A CITY STREET, THE AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM ACTIVATED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THERE WAS A 3 BEEP WARNING THEN THE CAR STOPPED ABRUPTLY. THE DEALER, CENTRAL AVENUE NISSAN IN YONKERS, NY. CHECKED THE SYSTEM AND RECEIVED CODE C1B55 (ELSEWHERE IN THE REPORT CITED, C1355), RADAR BLOCKAGE, (STORED PAST CODE). THE TECHNICIAN ATTRIBUTED THIS TO "SIDE RADAR BLOCKAGE" THEY CHECKED THE AREA OF THE SENSOR AND FOUND NO DEBRIS. NISSAN SERVICE WAS NOT CLEAR WHY A FALSE SIDE RADAR BLOCKAGE WARNING SHOULD TRIGGER ABRUPT BRAKING. ALSO, THEY DIDN'T ACTUALLY FIX ANY PROBLEM. THE REPORT IS AVAILABLE IF REQUESTED AND CONTAINS SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FROM THE SERVICE DIAGNOSTICS NOT GENERALLY SHOWN TO THE CUSTOMER.

DRIVING DOWN AN OPEN PAVED COUNTY ROAD, DRIVING STRAIGHT AT AROUND 60 MPG. NO CARS IN SIGHT, NO TREES OR BUILDING NEAR THE ROAD AND WE HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A GUNSHOT INSIDE THE VEHICLE. WE LOOKED AROUND AND COULDN'T TELL WHAT HAPPENED. I LOOKED UP AND THERE WAS A HOLE IN THE CENTER OF THE MOONROOF THEN GLASS STARTED FALLING. MY KIDS IN THE BACKSEAT HAD MORE GLASS THAN THE FRONT. THE GLASS THAT WAS REMAINING WAS CURVED UP WHICH SEAMED STRANGE BECAUSE NO ONE TOUCHED THE ROOF. WE HAVE A PANORAMIC MOONROOF BUT IT WAS ONLY THE MOVABLE PIECE EXPLODED. ROOF AND WINDOWS WERE CLOSED, IT WAS 85 DEGREES OUTSIDE AND WE HAD THE AIR CONDITIONING ON. I CALLED NISSAN AND OPENED AN INCIDENT AND THEY DENIED ANY RESPONSIBILITY STATING GLASS ISN'T COVERED AND SINCE THERE IS NO EVIDENCE SHOWING IT EXPLODED AND WASN'T HIT THEY ARE NOT LIABLE. I HAVE FULL COVERAGE GLASS INSURANCE SO I WOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY EITHER WAY IT IS THE POINT THAT THIS IS NOT MY FAULT AND AFTER LOOKING AT ALL OF THE SAME ISSUES WITH THESE GLASS ROOFS IT SHOULD BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CAR MANUFACTURER.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ANTI LOCK BRAKE PUMP CAN LEAK BREAK FLUID ONTO CIRCUIT BOARD CAUSING AN ELECTRICAL SHORT AND CAUSE A FIRE RISK. NISSAN RECOMMENDS PARKING VEHICLES (IN MY CASE A MURANO PLATINUM 2017) OUTSIDE. IF DRIVERS SEE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE WARNING FOR MORE THAN 10 SEC AFTER ENGINE START, DO NOT DRIVE VEHICLE. PROBLEM- MY CAR VIN DID NOT COME UP ON THE RECALL SO I NEVER RECEIVED THE WARNING. I EXPERIENCED AN ELECTRICAL FIRE UNDER HOOD (PASSENGER SIDE) WHEN CAR WAS OFF AND PARKED INSIDE MY GARAGE. WE HAPPEN TO BE HOME AND SMELL SMOKE. CALLED NISSAN CORPORATE TO URGE THE RECALL BE ISSUED AGAIN.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM FAILS - IT IS TURNS OFF AUTOMATICALLY. THE ERROR MESSAGE ON THE DASHBOARD DISPLAY SAY'S THE FRONT RADAR SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING. THIS HAPPENS ARBITRARILY AND WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING REGARDLESS OF DAY OR NIGHT OR WEATHER CONDITIONS. THE SYSTEM WILL BE OPERABLE AGAIN IN 10 OR 15 MINUTES. MY CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO NISSAN. THEY SAID IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND THEY ARE RESEARCHING THE CAUSE. HOWEVER NISSAN DIDN'T ALERT ME TO THE PROBLEM. I HAVE NO EVIDENCE NISSAN IS REALLY WORKING ON A SOLUTION. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE WHEN THE RADAR SYSTEM STOPS THE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM SHUTS DOWN AND THE CAR BEGINS TO DECELLERATE. UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS THIS MAY STARTLE OR CONFUSE THE DRIVER AND LEAD TO PANIC OR ABRUPT MANUVERS.
