Recently reported FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM problems on 2005 Nissan Murano

Air intake hose becomes lose causing car to stall in traffic and stop. frequent jumpstarts necessary when it becomes loose.

Fuel sensor says car is on empty but will never fill up past 1/2 tank. alternator is out now & bad vibration when driving between 60-70mph so could possibly be u joint considering everything else has been done that would correct a vibration

Got service engine soon error code on monitor with temporary loss of power on the road on 2005 nissan murano (54000 miles). looking at internet i found that this is consistent problem for this car just like other nissan cars of this period (xterra, pathfinder). this is related to fuel sensor error with p0463 code which is unusual for any cars. estimated cost of repair is about $600 to $ 800. i think nissan should recall or at least partially compensate owners. i was also asked to replace power steering high pressure hose a few years ago that costs about $ 1000/=. all these are safety issues as it can stop car on road at any time. i request and encourage others to inform nhtsa and nissan if such problem arises.

Several times while driving on city streets the car would shut down completely, with no warning had to get towed. while in drive-through car shut down but a delay then restarted. bought new battery, alternator and got a tune-up. currently the car will not go in backwards.

Fuel line sputters, car lurches forward or completely stops.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 nissan murano. the contact stated that during routine maintenance with an independent mechanic, it was discovered that the fuel tank was leaking due to a failed seal. the vehicle was not repaired. the vehicle was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 06v054000 (fuel system, gasoline). the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 211,000.

In march 2013, a nissan dealership replaced the fuel sensors and a related amplifier because the "service engine soon" went on and the diagnostic codes specified a fuel sensor problem (i paid between $1000-1500). about a year later, the fuel sensor light went on again, the fuel gauge intermittently shows empty even when the tank is more than one-half full, and the "miles to empty" gauge periodically goes to zero and then rebounds to the substantial number of miles left. the nissan dealer states that the diagnostic code shows a problem in a "past cycle" and they do not have an onboard diagnostic tool. i'm unsure what's going to happen next -- but it sounds to me like there should have been a recall (other nissan models had recalls because of fuel sensor problems). *tr
