Tl* the contact owns a 2003 nissan murano. while driving various low speeds, the contact's vehicle independently accelerated in reverse and crashed into a parked vehicle. the contact shifted into park to avoid a potential crash, but the vehicle failed to stop. the air bags did not deploy. a police report was filed. there were no injuries sustained. the vehicle was able to be driven from the scene. the contact stated that the failure was intermittent and first occurred two years ago. an independent mechanic was notified, but the failure could not be duplicated. a dealer was not made aware of the failure. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 107,000. *ln consumer stated failure happened several times. updated 12/11/18*jb

While driving on a city street car lost charge would drive very slowly about 1 mile per hour. brake and battery light came on. have already replaced battery and alternator about a year ago but when same thing happened today. per the vin my car has not been recalled. i'll have to get invoice from tire choice to show what i paid for alternator and battery. thank you.

My 2003 nissan murano stalls out on me while driving, and multiple times just today 06/07/18 while driving at a normal speed limit, vehicle just slows down causing me to put my hazards. i was not able to accelerate. this is a hazard for myself and more important my children who ride in this vehicle with me. my vin# does not have a recall, but reading other consumer's comments there is a major issue. it's my hope that this can be recalled so that we the consumer's will have a piece of mind and be safe while driving on the roads.

Driving came to a stop at a light car died. restarted it, drove home. car wouldn't start, replaced the fuel pump. vehicle started was driving got on the freeway had no acceleration control, loud knocking noise all of a sudden, turned around went back home and before i got to my front door the radiator exploded! the whole top of it cracked open.

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.

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.

As i was coming out of a tunnel driving normally at 55 mph, my murano jolted and surged it's rpm into the red. this was very dangerous as i was driving with my 3 year old daughter. after going online and seeing that many others have had the same problem but nissan has not conducted a recall on the cvt transmission. i called nissan canada today and got no where. they extended the warranty to 10 years or 200 km. which my car now at 158k and 2014 do not apply. this is completely ridiculous as nissan is aware of this faulty problem and is just waiting for someone to get killed. she said it wasn't nissan who makes the rules on recalls but the nhtsa. which to me is just a cop-out! what company produces a faulty product and refuses to take responsibility for it! *js

Coming off exit ramp, stopped and turned left, was going around 25 mph when the car surged forward, accelerated, rpm shot up. i had to slam on the brakes and put the car into neutral. the car then slowed and began driving normally. a week later, my wife and i were on the interstate going around 60 mph when the car slowed down as though it was put into a low gear. we could only get it to go no more that 35 mph. we pulled off on the shoulder and parked. the car would not start again. had to tow it. about a month later, i was on the interstate going around 65 when the same thing happened as before, it went into a lower gear, lowering my speed to around 30 mph which caused me to almost get hit from behind. had it been a large truck it most likely would have hit me. i put it in neutral and pulled off to the shoulder. when i pulled out again, it drove at a normal rate of speed. i've taken it to the nissan dealership and they claimed they couldn't find anything wrong. the ...

I am driving the car and it wont accelerate in traffic. a warning light goes on then goes off. this vehicle is not safe. i bought this car for my daughter and am scared to let her drive it. ,i am a widow and money is very tight. i bought this car thinking it would be safe. this started happening so i goggled it to see if anyone else has or had these issues. there are a lot of complaints like this. there is a recall for the car but only certain vin#'s. how can you rule out the other ones that are having the same issue. they are all saying that they wont going in traffic on the highway.is it going to take someone dying before nissan will do something about this car and it's problem. my husband died in a car accident. i have post traumatic stress disorder where this is concerned and it is taking everything i can do to not to start having panic attacks where this is concerned. nissan needs to do something and so does the government regarding the safety of this car. *tr

I just purchased this vehicle on 7/15/14, drove it home and it would not start 7/16/14. i was able to get the vehicle started, but the service engine soon light came on and it shut off 2 more times while parked. i was finally able to get it started and running to go about my errands. i stopped to pick someone up from the hospital and it started up, but immediately shut off again. eventually, it started bucking and shuddering while i was driving and seemed as if it was going to shut off. i was able to get it to the dealer i purchased it from and he is taking responsibility of getting it serviced. the diagnosis was the rear cam position sensor went bad. i called haldemann nissan in hamilton, nj to inquire about recalls, as i knew this was a recall issue and was told that my vin number had no recalls. *tr

I purchased this car from a dealer as a used vehicle in september 2013. after several months i began to notice a very serious transmission problem. all of the sudden when driving the car does not respond to the gas pedal and then all of the sudden the vehicle will lurch forward. this has been scary and unsafe when driving in high traffic areas and i have run the risk of rear ending another vehicle. other times it has been an extreme safety hazard when entering traffic that is traveling at a higher speed and you have to speed up to merge. if your car does not move when you press on the gas pedal others can crash into you. i have read that other nissan muranos that are the same year as mine have experienced the same safety issues and nissan has received a significant number of complaints with regard to cvt and front transfer case (cracks/fractures) issues but that nissan has not had a recall to correct this serious problem. i have a three year old grand daughter that i have in my car with me ...

While driving on the interstate the vehicle lost acceleration completely. . it had to be re-started in order to continue driving. once in ,option again, the engine was idling extremely high and continued that way until the vehicle was turned off and sat for over an hour. started. *tr

I was driving my nissan murano going 45mph when suddenly the engine light flashed, the air went out, and the car shut off. i was pressing the gas but it wouldn't do anything and it suddenly shut off. i've been to several shops that can't find a problem so they told me about the recall on the 2003 nissan murano. they think it's maybe electrical or engine cooling. *tr
