Problems with 2003 Nissan Murano ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

The car is stalling when i stop whining real bad

This car has had a lot of electrical issues. the cam shaft position sensors have had to be replaced three times and the ecu had to be replaced. the sunroof is also dead. the bose stereo is always going out. i'm upset because there was many vins that nissan covered because they recognized that there was a issue, but mine was not included in the recall. this is a safety hazard! your car can die at any time, any speed and any where. my car is now in the shop for the 3rd time with cam sensor issues after being stranded twice. the car just won't start. the battery, alternator and starter all check out good.

A wire broke inside the alternator causing the battery to stop from charging. my family was driving approximately 60mph on the highway when the charger warning and brake warning lamps came on. the battery began to discharge and the car lost power. we pulled over to the side of the road and the engine went into a "fall safe" mode (all dash indicators and radio display flashed rapidly) and then the engine stopped running. the engine would not restart and the car had to be towed.

Tl* the contact owns a 2003 nissan murano. while driving approximately 60 mph, the battery and anti-lock braking system warning indicators illuminated. the vehicle lost acceleration. the contact parked the vehicle in a lot. the vehicle would not restart and had to be towed to tischer nissan in fort meade. the dealer diagnosed that the alternator failed and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 172,000.

Car randomly shuts off while in motion at various times while on highway and city streets. most recent occurrence we were attempting to make a left turn and car shut off and rolled into ditch while oncoming traffic was approaching.

I was driving on a large bypass 55 mph. suddenly, my speed and rpm's dropped even with pushing my gas pedal to the floor. i pulled over, put my car in park, and touched the gas pedal. the rpm's increased normally so i began driving again. within a short distance it happened again. i got off the bypass and pulled into a parking lot. i turned the car off and checked my fluids. i restarted the car and pulled back out onto the road (40 mph highway). as soon as i pulled out it did it again. i pulled onto a backroad. i noticed then that my abs light and battery light had come on. i turned on my 4 ways since my car would not go over 10 mph. when i turned them on i heard what sounded like an electric short and all of my lights and gauges began flickering wildly. with a very short distance i began losing power to everything until my car completely stopped. i was on the side of a dark road at 11 pm with no lights or power. when the tow truck arrived he said that sounds like the alternator. i ...

Driving 2003 nissan murano on highway and when i began slow down my car turned off. was able to turn the car back on and then it immediately turned off. was told it was the alternator, but that it was not included in the recall (nhtsa campaign #05v319000), so nissan would not replace it.

Driving on a highway with children 65mph coming from airport, starting losing speed quickly, brake light and charging(battery) light came luckily made it side of highway despite, honking horns and screaming kids, someone could have been killed. this is on top of the acceleration problem where all of a sudden you will press on gas pedal and the car doesn't go and then suddenly lunges forward, i have almost been rear- ended on several occasions due to this. i have purchased new battery, alternator, etc. i have had the throttle sensor replaced. this car is so unsafe and has been a money pit. many mechanics including nissan mechanics say they test drive the vehicle and don't see the acceleration problem.

My car was running sluggish and low power when turned on lights, when tested battery it was fine but voltage low so i guess its not charging battery. doesn't start alot of times. engine runs hot quick, put new battery did same and one day the battery and brake light stayed on and then while driving it just stopped like i was giving it gas but car wasn't moving. now it wont start at all. there may be a tiny oil leak but don't know from where and it drives rough but they say my shocks and struts and suspension and everything is ok. *tr

Driving car lost power and came to a stop ,had to have it tow because it wouldn't stay running. *tr

On june 18th 2015 my car felt as if was losing power and then my brake light and battery came on. i came to a slow moving pace, like 10 mph. very dangerous i was on the highway. lost all power. would not crank. replaced battery and worked for about 2 weeks and then again same thing. could have really caused a bad accident.... did some research and had alternator tested. bad alternator. replaced it. and again today same thing. this is so dangerous and getting to be very expensive. i see there was a recall about this issue but not my car. very upset. something needs to be done to correct this issue before someone causes an accident that could very well take someone's life. i have replaced the censor, battery and now two alternator's within 2 months.
