While driving the vehicle it may randomly stall causing the motor to shut down while the car is in use making it very unsafe. also random over heating and stalling i've changed both camshaft sensors and the crankshaft sensor also the radiator and the thermostat nothing fixes it. there was a recall on my vehicle but i need to be put on the list i was left out.
Rear sub frame rusted and car collapsing. dealership and carmaker don't care
I was driving and randomly lost power. no powersteering, no acceleration, no brakes, all of the lights on the dash turned on like the engine shut off, and the key was turned back to electrical (while in the middle of driving, i'm 100% sure the car turned off without the ignition key switching to off). this has happened about 5 times now. the code p0345 activated shortly after the second time it happened. it has happened when decelerating/braking, accelerating, and coasting, low and high speeds. i know there are other reports of this with muranos on the internet and apparently happens to a few other nissans. this started in early june, when the temperatures are above mid 80's.
I was riding on the highway and almost got hit a couple of times. my car just stalled an shut down. it is a hazard cause myself and my kids could have gotten killed. i have a new serpentine belt , battery is good an alternator is good. my car was driving then all of a sudden it just stalled.
The sun visor flop down at random when driving, taking away visibility. this is extremely unsafe. i removed them one day after this almost caused an accident. now, i have to deal with blinding light from the sun, not sure which is worse.
I have seen numerous muranos with the frames rusted completely through. needs to be investigate and nissan should correct this. they're asking so much for vehicals .
I was told that the rear of the car couldn't be aligned.. after looking for myself discovered that the subframe was totally rotted. the car cannot be driven and i am screwed. this should be fixed by nissan. this is not a small defect. this can kill people. the car is structurally unsafe and god only knows how long it has been like that.
Rear sub frame is rusted out very dangerous
Takata recall: we bought our nissan murano (2007) 16 months ago. it has barely 100k miles on it and the engine is burning oil constantly. my husband is adding oil to it every other day. plus the transmission is rattling constantly when pressing the gas and the car has stalled at least 5 times since we've had it, one time almost causing an accident. we have young kids and this is our family car and i do not feel safe driving it.
Rear suspension is rusted into cheap metal on my awd murano
I was driving my car in the middle of traffic when i pushed on the gas and the vehicle wasn't moving anymore. the battery and brake light both came on. after a couple of minutes i was able to move my car to the side of the road by pushing on the gas. but the car wasn't moving fast. after a couple of minutes evrething came back to normal. my vehicle is in the mechanic shop right now and my mechanic told me the alternator is going bad. i will be replacing the alternator.
The left front lower ball joint is ready to fall out as well as the rear crossmember frame is broken in half on the right side.
Sun visa keep falling down. it is very dangerous. every mile it drops down at least 10 times. i have to tape it. also it can not keep in the up location when i use it to block sun. it should be a recall since it is very dangerous and so many people report this problem.
Overheating shutting off very dangerous recall is needed it has the same problem as the recall
Visors will not stay up in storage. expensive replacement but not safe. visor will suddenly drop obstructing drivers view of the road. this happens both on driver and passenger visors but driver is worse. completely obscures view of road and it is unpredictable when it will happen. no way to tighten or fix. no promise that replacement won't have same problem.
I've only been driving my 2007 nissan murano car that i recently purchased used for 3 weeks. i was driving on the road and suddenly my car started jerking, shaking, smoking from under the hood then it abruptly stopped in the middle of traffic on a busy road. the car shut down and would not start again. i called the police, they blocked the lane i was in and called a local tow truck service that i had to pay for out of pocket because it was an emergency dangerous situation to get it off the road as soon as possible and the police could not chance to wait for my insurance company to send a tow service.
I didn't have any issues with it until dropping my son off for school one morning in september. as i pulled off from the corner and then tried to make an immediate left turn, my car just stopped, steering wheel locked and i had to pull as hard as i could to finish the turn and not get hit by oncoming traffic. needless to say, i was terrified but glad that my son wasn't in the car at the time. for the past five months, my nissan murano just stops or stalls at random. it doesn't matter how slow or fast, whether i'm turning or not, it just turns off. i have to quickly turn the key to "off" and then try to quickly restart the car. i've had to struggle to pull the wheel to pull the car to the curb just to get out of the way of traffic. i've had my kids in the car and it's happened with my husband as well, and he's driven on the expressway (which we will no longer try with that car). no help from nissan or nissan dealerships - just given the run around about very unsafe car.
I recently purchased a 2007 nissan murano which i purchased on 5/5/2015. i felt comfortable moving forward with the purchase based on the carfax which stated no accident / damage reported , no total loss, no structural damage, no airbag deployment. after, going to a local gas station and purchasing the required octane. i pulled off into traffic safely and the car would not budge. terrified that i would get hit by on coming traffic, i jumped into action and put the car into reverse. i let out huge sigh of relief because, i was able to move in reverse. i caught my breath and noticed that the service engine soon. i took my car too a local autozone and the codes that i received are all transmission codes. after being instructed to have a diagnostic performed by a authorized nissan dealer, it was confirmed that i need a new cvt transmission, transfer case resealed. based on numerous complaints about the cvt transmission and the safety issues. i deem my car unsafe and nissan should be responsible to make any and all vehicles manufactured.
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.
As i was driving in traffic (approximately 35 mph), i applied the brakes at the stoplight and there was a sudden loud sound coming from the engine. when i applied the gas, there was no power, but the engine continued to rev up. with cars flying by me, this was terrifying for me and my granddaughters. i took it to the dealership and they misdiagnosed the problem, twice. over the next few weeks, my murano began to randomly skip/hesitate with standard rpm and extremely high rpm. the local nissan dealership had my car for over a month, saying they had replaced the transmission. the only problem is the "problem " is there, still there. also there is no guarantee/warranty on warranted work. i now have nothing.and scared to drive my car that it will fail in traffic.
The horn of my vehicle was not working i take it to the dealer for and idea they told to call nissan of north america at( 888 nissan 1)
While vehicle was under extended warranty, and at approximately 60,000 miles the driver side sun visor failed to stay in its stowed/raised position. driver side visor would drop rapidly into field of view unexpectedly and at the slightest road vibration as we traveled along. months were spent driving with left hand occupied as a tool to hold the defective visor up and out of visual field. while hands and complete attention are needed for safe vehicle operation, managing a faulty sun visor to maintain full view of road details is a serious distraction. distracted driving is recognized/documented by a multitude of accidents, often of deadly consequence. the defective driver's visor was replaced at our expense, no warranty, however, failed in the same irritating and dangerous manner in less than two years. for safety sake i'll most likely remove the defective visor and toss to trash before a third visor is purchased with same dangerous, visual-obstructing, built-in malfunction.
While driving on the highway i noticed the brake warning light and battery warning light came on. i proceeded to drive for about 15minutes and all of a sudden the engine cut off and all power was lost, no ignition power no power steering. good thing i was not in the center lane or i would have been hit from behind with my child in the car. i see there has been a similar recall# 36089 on the 2004 nissan murano. the 2007 nissan murano should also be looked into because this could easily become a fatality issue! *tt
First it was the passenger side floors and then the driver side floors - front and rear - there is a substantial amount of water getting into the car. i had it looked at by the dealer and they assumed it was the sunroof - cleared the line. issue still went on. i did not know at first because the water got trapped under the rugs. i took it to another shop and they cleared the sunroof lines. i had it detailed and then put my rugs back down. this time i believe there was resulting mold in my car and is causing severe allergy issues for myself and my son.
Sun visors on both the drivers and passengers side are loose and fall down without the ability to stay up. this presents visibility issues and are a safety hazard. this is hardly a new complaint, is a known issue to nissan and they seem unwilling to fix a safety issue they are responsible for.
Driver side sun visor failed. will not retract and stay up. *tt
The sun visor drops down and blocks view while driving. the visor will not stay up and so we have to hold it while driving.
I hate to complain and i've never filed a complaint before, but some type of motion has to be enforced with the nissan murano line of vehicles. there are so many issues with this vehicle that i have chosen to list the most hazardous and frustrating ones. the first issue was recalled. months before a recall was finally enforced, i almost got severely hurt at a stoplight when the air exhaust hose slipped off on my 2007 nissan murano, which caused it to completely stop in the middle of driving through the stoplight. the second issue will also cause near death experiences/deaths if a recall is not enforced. my driver side seat and 1,000s of others' driver side seats have a collapsed rear bracket which causes the seat to move back in forth. this is extremely dangerous! a rear-end collision could be just as fatal as a head on collision due to the fact that the seat will move forward and throw the driver into the air bag breaking their neck and various other fatal injuries to graphic to list. i foresee a huge lawsuit as nissan has been alerted of this issue many times and refuses to cover it, even for vehicles still under warranty. instead, they charge on average $1,200 to fix it. if you would like to simulate the issue, you are more than welcome to use my murano with a crash test dummy and crash it into a wall. the most nerve wrecking issue is the breaks. no matter what kind of brakes you have installed or who installs them (even the dealer), they still squeak extremely loud. once again, nissan knows about this as a common problem, but their response in lamen terms is, 'sorry, that you were stupid enough to pay 38k for a hunk of junk.' i have so many other issues with this vehicle that i lay awake at night and pray that it will get stolen, a major hail storm, or i win the lottery so i can get rid of it as i still owe on it and i'm upside down on trade value. this is my 1st and last nissan. i'm going back to gm for better quality and customer satisfaction. *tr
This is regarding a 2007 nissan murano. the sun visor on the drivers side does not lock in the up position. this causes it to fall donw into the field of view and is a definate safety issue especially when driving on rough roads as it can block you vision without any warning. manufacturer and dealers will not cover this repair once out of warrenty and it costs upwards of $400 to do the repair. i have investigated this and have even heard from dealers that this is a common occurance with these vehicles all the way back to 2003. this should definately be a saftey recall as it could cause an unexpected accident
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 nissan murano. while driving 15 mph through a puddle of any size, water splashes onto the front windshield. the contact took the vehicle to the dealer. the dealer was unable to determine the cause of failure and repair the vehicle. the current mileage is 500 and failure mileage was 10,000.
