Drivers seat frame broke while driving making it impossible to drive vehicle safely! incident happened while driving vehicle on street making a turn!
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 nissan murano. while operating the vehicle, the front driver's seat was not secured and would rock and move while the driver was seated. the cause of the failure was not determined. the local dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 110,000.
The seat bracket broke. really a seat bracket that breaks from fatigue of entering and leaving the vehicle?!? safety concern sun visor no longer holds its position due to plastic that wears out. safety issue. transmission failure at just over 100,000 miles. reports all over the web about this. so common, and so expensive. major safety issue. nissan has done nothing to address these issues that are so common with all of these models. it is not just me, there is report after report on the web. all the same issues.
Nissan murano drivers seat left side seat mount bracket that mounts to floor boards cracked and completely broke causing me to swerve into on coming traffic. a head on collision was closely avoided. i contacted ken (xxxx) nissan in medina ohio and they said that nissan motors will do nothing about it because it is not a safety issue and will do nothing about it. this issue i feek is an obvious safety issue and the vehicle shoud be recalled. i has the seat welded so it would work again but the weld eventually failed. seat is now broke.
Was concern about the seat it goes,up but leaks,down and ,rocks like it is broke, the airbag light keeps flashing and wont stop,jumpy accelertion, and replacing front brake can be costly. i bought this vehicle and according to internet by vin# printed out no recalls, shows now i see it had recalls what can i do to get this taken care of? driving down the road the seat felt like it was changing the height and i had to keep readjusting it, i then stopped and went to get out and it rocked. i weigh 100lbs so i could not have broken it.
The drivers seat is very wobbly is not stable. engine is making a noise unsure on how to describe and i believe there's undercarriage rusting and the car is getting wet inside when it rains.
My vehicle was not moving at the time the light started flashing. the passenger air bag "off" light does not work unless i move the connector under the front right passenger seat. then the passenger air bag light will shut off after about 10 seconds. this is the same problem listed for the recall but my vehicle is not part of the recall. this seems to be a problem for many murano's not included in the recall.
I got into the vehicle on the driver's side and heard a pop. i put the car in reverse and when the car moved i heard the pop again and the seat dropped on the left side. i parked, got out to examine the seat and a seat support had broken under the left rear side of the driver's seat causing the seat to drop, leaning to the left. attempting to return home, when hitting any bump in the road the seat is almost like sitting in a rocking chair.
My 2007 nissan muran has approx 125,000 miles. i have taken care of it. it has nice tires and the most recent 4wheel alignments where approx jan and feb 2018. for whatever reason i got in one day last summer and as soon as i was on the highway my seat felt as if i got push backward and my seat bracket had just broke, i now have bricks holding up my $28,000 ride! july 26, 2018 someone pulled into my driveway hitting my parked vehicle and quickly driving away. they hit it hard enough to dent the bumper and tow bar. i immediately could tell the rear end was way off. progressive refuses to pay for this as they said my crossmember completely rusted through as well as some of my frame and some other parts.. they say if the vehicle had not had such a serious rust problem -which is not age appropriate to my vehicle-then it would not have broken in half towing my tires in as well from that hit. coverage is voided like a poor workmanship deal! the shop i have it at right now says its so far gone it is seriously unsafe to drive. for myself and others. due to nissans premature rust issues my car is undriveable and my drivers seat isnt safe as well. progressive auto insurance is refusing to stand by my full coverage policy and apparently are legally able to do so because the substandard parts give them that escape clause. i still owe on this vehicle. i really need nissan to make this right as they have even made it so it was uninsurable as i paid and i never even knew it. i have my car in places for alignments, tires, oil changes etc etc and noone ever told me it was rusting or rusted away. the progressive agent had looked at my murano upon the 1st inspection and never even told me about the danger i was in driving. nissan has created a problem that has prompted my progressive adjuster to place my safety at risk so they can get out of paying. i took care of my car!
While driving i heard a popping grating sound under the driver seat .seat twisted and sank on the left back section.i almost lost control of car.upon ckecking the left back of the seat was moving up and down.took it to body repair who sent me to upholsterer.he to me i have to get a seat.i ordered a used one online. so far it cost $425.00.waiting on it . ihave invoice
Driving on a local highway doing about 35 to 40 mph. put on brakes and the entire rear end began to vibrate and make a rumbling noise. the rear tires are leaning inward on both sides of the vehicles which throws off the stabalization of the vehicle making it unsafe and difficult to steer or stop. the entire stabalization bar and the mounting brackets supporting it rusted through on the left side and dislodged and the right side is ready to dislodge from the body at any time. there is nothing to support the bar so it can inadventerly fall and hit the highway and do damage to the undercarriage of the car or cause the vehicle to flip. my mechanic told me the vehicle is unsafe to drive. they called nissan and of course no recall or assistance to fix the vehicle which is over 2000 dollars. the sun visor on the drivers side drops blocking your vision unexpectantly creating a vision issue and concentration issue while driving. the electrical motor on the drivers seat is starting to fail and the seat wobbles as it is being repositioned. once repair are complete and i have invoices, i will upload them under a separate complaint.
Takata recall, car cuts off while driving and i've had my alternator replaced three times within six months. it doesn't matter where you are, the car just shuts down while in motion
Beginning about 1 month ago i noticed some unusual noise and movement of the driver's seat while driving. the problem worsened quickly, making a crunching metal noise and becoming increasingly unstable during driving with the left rear of the seat moving up and down. it now moves with only slight manual pressure applied to the left side of the seat. upon investigating the structure under the seat, i found a support bracket weld has completely separated. the drastic movement of the seat seems dangerous, slightly changing the drivers position behind the wheel, possibly altering control of the vehicle, the position behind the airbag, and certainly affecting restraint in the event of a crash. online research shows many, many similar problems with this bracket weld, but nissan has not issued a recall. this poor quality part failed, could result in damage, injury, or death, but will require me to pay $1100 to fix.
While driving the front drivers seat became free floating and nearly caused an accident

My 2007 nissan murano driver side seat made a loud pop sound when i sat down to drive and then broke causing it to lean to the left side, very unstable and unsafe. this should not have happened, not normal wear and tear.
Frame and track links broken on drivers seat. it rocks back and forth not stable. safety issue. notice it when i stop or accelerate.
I exited a parking lot and while driving at approximately 20mph the drivers seat rear mounting bracket broke on the rear left side, the seat snapped back to the left side which nearly caused me to lose control of the vehicle. i've read on the forums that this is happening to nearly every single 2003 - 2007 nissan murano. *tr
Last year my drivers side front seat anchor/bracket broke. poor design. rear sub frame rusted out resulting in the rear left wheel to nearly fall off while driving. this year my wife was advised by a person in a vehicle behind her that the rear wheel was ready to launch. road salt caused rusting to sub frame body mount. again poor design and material. *tr
Track on driver's side broken, got into car and right side of seat went backward.
While getting in my car after work, the seat was all of a sudden unstable, leaning to the rear left. upon further inspection, the bracket has broken in two places, which will need to be re-welded. i had no warning prior to it actually breaking. this is unbelievable, have never had anything like this happen. very glad it did not happen while i was driving, particularly on a road trip. *tr

Drivers seat to floor track attachment broken on left rear attachment. currently only the right rear track remains attached to the seat itself which in an accident could break launching the driver into the belt and the airbag in a frontal crash. currently the manufacturer nissan accepts no responsibility for product defect.
Driver's seat - the bracket in the rear left that supports the seat broke while driving. air bags - the air bag light is on and will not go away. when i purchased the vehicle in feb. 2016, the dealer assured me it was just a glitch in the display. engine - started running rough about a week ago, while we were headed out of town. cancelled that trip. threw a "cylinder 3 misfire" code. my husband replaced that plug and coil and it continued to run rough. today, it overheated and started dumping fluid on the ground. the suspension is also failing. when we hit a bump or pothole, it feels like the front end is going to fall off. i loved this car when we bought it and when it runs right, but right now, i am completely disgusted. i have only owned it for two months. i feel like we were robbed and we aren't in the financial standing to replace it.
While i was driving i stopped at a restaurant and when i tried to roll my windows down, the power locks, windows, alarm, seat adjuster, brake pedal/accelerator, rear hatch stopped working. no power to the main window switch panel. just stopped working one day.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 nissan murano. while driving 30 mph, the front driver seat rocked forward and backward on the rough terrain of the highway. the seat leaned towards the driver's door and was unstable. the back of the seat leaned, slid towards the driver's door, and caused discomfort to the driver. the seat was unstable during an angled position. an independent mechanic diagnosed that the metal track separated partially from the floorboard tracking. the dealer was made aware of the issue. the failure mileage was 66,910.
Everytime i am in a slow speed my truck putters and jerks like its shifting into another speed. i dont have a manual. my seat feels like someone is pulling on it when nobody is near me. my engine light came on and my tire presure battery keeps dying on me.
Following vehicle being in for coolant system repair, i entered vehicle driver side and found the seat moved forward to the extreme, i moved it back and sat down, right away i noticed the seat did not feel stable, was unsure if this was related to the recent work, began driving vehicle, went a short distance, driver seat was listing to the driver side of vehicle, and was unstable. i returned immediately to repair shop, of course late in day and closing time. i was told they would look at next day, low and behold, the bad news begins arriving about midmorning- the seat track is broken and will cost a significant amount of money to repair. during my drive back to repair shop next day, the seat feels very unstable and would not recommend driving this vehicle any length of time; creates a significant feeling that control of vehicle is not secure, due to seat instability. aren't seat suppose to last the life of the vehicle, what is all that money paying for?
We were returning from vacation driving down i-95 when we heard a pop and the drivers seat settled back and to the left. it caused me to move into the next lane. luckily there was no one there.
Seat frame weld broke under driver's seat. seat began to sway down & left and then swayed back up right causing a momentary loss of driving focus and fear of losing control of vehicle. fear compounded because my 3 year old granddaughter was in the car with me. after driving nervously home, i inspected seat to find a frame weld broken at a crucial weight bearing spot. the left rear corner of the seat was not even connected to the frame! i went to the internet, because the service department of action nissan never answered, to get any info on this. turns out there are hundreds of complaints about these defective seat frame welds. and the price is off the charts for this retired (nissan quality assurance inspector, smyrna plant). there has never been a recall of this problem! failure of a driver seat frame weld should be grounds for a recall! incredibly dangerous! i am really angry about this problem. this car was just ok for 95,000 miles. after that the high pressure power steering hose went out. the driver's side power window motor quit. neither of the sunvisors will stay up. dealer asking $135 each. prior to 95,000 miles, brakes x2, tires x2 sets, hatch shocks worn out, all upper and lower control arm bushings worn out, underbody shocks worn out, center cv boot/half shaft replaced, oe & dealer replacement wipers are a joke and up to now, 6 headlamp bulbs replaced (no, i didn't touch them). and the regular maintenance set forth by the manual; whew! i have spent thousands on service. i worked for nissan for 25 years, but i will never again buy a nissan product. please request nissan to recall the murano about the seat frame weld.
I was going down the highway and heard a noise and my driver seat went back and toward the window. i had to regain control of my car because when the seat frame broke i swerved and my foot fell off the gas pedal. when reading online i found that there was an investigation but no recall was issued. i also found that i am not the only one to have this problem. please revisit this issue and do something to protect not only the driver/passenger of the vehicle but the other motorists on the road before someone gets seriously hurt or worse. if it was my inexperienced 18 year old driving there would have surely been an accident.
Driver's seat became wobbly and unstable without warning making driving quite difficult; dealership staff indicated seat track needed costly repair. driver's side visor drops down unexpectedly while driving and will not stay put; cost to replace would be nearly $200. i thought these items lasted for the duration of the vehicle.
I was driving to the store and as i turned the corner i heard a snap in the back of the drivers seat and the seat suddenly jerked to the back towards the drivers door and felt very unstable. it now moves quit freely and when i go over a bump or a dip or turn right, it moves toward the door. i was able to look under the seat with a light and it snapped right off the bracket that goes across the back of the seat. i will be seeking estimates on fixing it as it happened today and feels very unsafe when i go around a corner. *tr
Drivers seat bracket broke while entering the car. i know 3 people with muranos that this happened to . should be a recall. the seat now wiggles freely all the time.

I was driving on the freeway. i heard a pop and the seat tilted to the left. my first instinct was to swerve and i narrowly missed hitting the center divider. once i calmed down and recovered, i drove home. i probably should not have done that. when i came home, i looked underneath the seat and observed the seat bracket assembly cracked at the weld. i contacted the dealer and was told that this is very common. i am not sure what very means. cost of repair is $1700-2500. he recommended going to a body shop to have the part welded back together. *tr

Got in the vehicle and the seat frame broke (driver's seat - left rear). this is going to happen with every 2003-2007 sometime. nissan needs to recall. this is a safety issue. someone will be killed if this happens while driving. this is a $1,200 repair from the dealer. i didn't get it fixed yet. help!! *tr
Sat in car to take daughter to school. heard a loud clunk and my driver's side seat broke. the rear bracket came loose and now my seat wobbles/bounces all over the place. over bumps it's worse. turning a corner sends me up against the door. i find myself grabbing the steering wheel for balance and that causes my car to swerve. hubby thought i was exaggerating until he sat in seat. looked online and saw many similar complaints. called nissan and the service advisor said it's a common problem and i should call nissan to see if they will cover parts. it's a safety issue!!! if nissan is aware there's this big of a problem why no recall? because no one has died?? seems that's the only way they will make this right. right now i'm using the "fix" the guy before me used....piece of wood under the seat to keep it stable enough to drive. quoted $1700 parts and labor. *tr
While driving my wife heard pop and driver's seat broke dipping to the left at rear of seat. i've investigated this matter and seat will cost over $1,000 to replace and is a common problem. can't understand why if this is a common problem this is not subject to a recall. from the number of complaints it looks to me as though the metal used to make the seat bracket is not sturdy, or defective metal is being used. *tr
While the car was in motion i heard a pop, the drivers seat and myself, lurched back and to the left into the drivers side door. i was very startled but luckily was able to hold onto the steering wheel otherwise i would have lost control of the car. *tr
I have a 2007 nissan murano and as i was driving the seat broke causing me to almost slide off the seat. i called nissan to make an appointment to have it fixed and was told that it would cost me $1500.00. i decided to go home and check if there had been any recall on this part and was shocked to see letter after letter from nissan murano owner with the same problem. this i feel is very dangerous and should have been addressed with a recall from the dealer.someone is going to get really hurt if they are riding down the highway at 65 miles an hour and the seat breaks. i hope by writing to you this can be avoided. *tr
Entered driver's side of vehicle, sat in seat, and heard a snapping/breaking type noise. in sitting on the seat it began to wobble and was on a slant. had to place a piece of wood to level it off so i could use my vehicle. *tr
When i entered the vehicle, the bracket on the driver's seat broke, causing the seat to rock and tilt to the left. after researching the issue online, it appears to be a rather common occurrence for this model year. apparently nissan issued a tsb on the problem, but did not issue a recall. if the driver's seat is not secure, how effective can the safety belt be in a crash? it is a real danger, and should be recalled. *tr
