This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I was on the highway when the car shut down on me. I took it to 2 mechanics and they both said the motor seized. They mentioned that the car was burning oil after the fact. There was no signs on my dashboard. The only difference on the car that I noticed was the car had been running a bit sluggish. I've replaced the timing chain and fuel pump. The car only has 96,600 miles. The mechanic can't give me a straight answer just that the motor seized.
My car stalls while driving when the air intake comes loose. This is happening constantly. I have narrowly escaped 2 accidents. The car was in motion both times. I now have to make sure this connection is secure by stopping every few miles of driving and each time before I start out for the day.
The contact owns a 2007 Nissan Murano. While driving various speeds, the vehicle would not properly accelerate when depressing the accelerator pedal. On several occasions, the engine continued to rev very highly before the vehicle abruptly accelerated at a high rate of speed. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The manufacturer and local dealer (nelson Nissan, 800 w. queens St, broken arrow, ok) were notified of the failure. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 129,000.
Takata recall the engine in my 2007 Nissan Murano stalls at one point it shut iff on me while driving my son to school. The air bag light is blinkg so there a peoblem with the air bag there is a problem with the speed control the vehicle slows down and it will not pass
The transmission is shot at 115, 000 miles! just died on the interstate. My daughter was driving on the interstate and suddenly car died, she barely could get car on shoulder of the road. Took car to our Nissan mechanic and he said this year was known for bad transmissions.
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.
I had to replace my altenator 3 times. I bought the car 2 years ago at 90,000 miles. When it first went out, I bought one from autozone, then 4 months later is went out. I had a warranty thru autozone on the parts so the part was replaced but I had to cover the labor cost. 2 months later the altenator replace it again but I wanted labor cost covererd this time. They agreed to cover the part and labor. There must be an electrical problem with these cars. I ve read other owners of the same car having the same issue. If Nissan doesn't fix this for free, I will never buy another of their cars because I can't believe multiple times. I had two different mechanic so it not the person, it's the car, I believe so. The other problem I've had it that the air duck intake hose keeps disconnecting, it will cause my car to miss file and run very ruff, like poor performance. It can make the car shut off while driving or at a stop sign.
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.
I was traveling down the interstate, going about 70 mph. My vehicle didn't want to run properly. I was unaware of the issue, I thought it would straighten up after a few minutes. Well, my car just shut down. I was lucky I made it to the shoulder of the highway before an accident happened. I had it towed to the shop in the town I reside in. He diagnosed it, and said Nissan Muranos were known for this to happen. He put it back together, as it had separated. I did some personal research on the problem, and saw there was a recall campaign for the generation 1 Muranos (2003-2007), I then did a VIN # check, and there was no known recalls for my VIN. I also saw during research, that there were thousands of vehicles recalled for this issue. I reached out to Nissan Consumer Affairs, they made me aware there was nothing that could be done due to the age and mileage of the vehicle. I then made them aware this was a big safety hazard for myself, and other motorists. They then transferred the case to a regional case specialist. The regional specialist, again, told me there was nothing they could do. I then, explained the importance of this problem. The regional specialist then transferred me to a supervisor. The supervisor then called me back, and told me yet again, there was nothing that could be done. This is just unbelievable to me that just because, by policy, they won't cover repairs that could lead to the extent of taking someones life. I have told them everything I included in this report. Please advise.
My 2007 Nissan Murano continues to stall after replacing the camshaft sensor 3 times. My issues seem to fit the description defective intake air ducts. This causes, which my car does, to cut off while driving. Acceleration is bad and even worse when I use my air conditioning. I no longer take the car on the highway after cutting off driving to stop signs and green lights in traffic.
In the past 2 weeks while driving my car, it randomly, completely shuts off. I have no electrical anything. My car will start right back up once I stop and turn the key. This happens several times anytime I try driving (just in the past couple of weeks) on the highway 70-80 mph or just down the street 25-40 mph and has also happened twice when I am making a turn! it is scary when I lose the ability to steer my vehicle.
The charger warning and brake warning lamp will immediately came. The engine slowed down and the car could only go 10 mph. This happened while turning onto a busy street. Drove the car 2 mph back home.
Air intake ducting separates from resonator causing engine to stall. I found a recall campaign bulletin, ntb09-038, July 16, 2009. This recall was denied by clay cooley Nissan in austin, tx on Nov., 27, 2017.
The contact owns a 2007 Nissan Murano. While driving 45 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. The contact placed the vehicle in neutral and coasted to the right side of the road. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. The contact stated that the failure occurred on several occasions while making right and/or left turns. Brown's dulles Nissan in sterling, Virginia was made aware of the failures. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 149,000.
The car was parked and it did not start at all.. happened twice in one month. Had to be towed, took it to the shop and they didnot find anything wrong because the car was working ok. And this also can happened when I was driving my car. The car stop working no lights no brakes nothing was working. Took it to the shop and the same thing. The car was working again. Also I received a letter from Nissan saying that there is a problem with a part that doesnot let you fill up your gas tank and they said that they have extended the warranty for this part but they cannot replaced it until you have this problem.
I brought my car to reed Nissan to be diagnosed because the check engine light was on. They diagnosed the car and said that a few things needed fixing and when fix the light will be gone. I paid to fix the car and when I was driving home the check engine light came back. I called back and spoke to my servuce advisor who told me to bring back the car to be re diagnosed. The finding was another problem that apparently didnt show up because of how long the car took to be fix. I agree to replaced what they quote me the price for but instead I got the opposite. They replaced what they wanted to and disnt replace everything they agreed to replace but I still had tonpay all the money that was agreed on eventhough I didnt get all the work done that was suppose to be done. Today my car radiator blew and they say they are not responsible for it a week aftwr I fix my car with them. There was also a crack in my engine cover and a screw missing to keep it tight. My radiator cover screws were also missing. I apod my money and didnt get the job that they told me I was supposed to get. Whrn I spoke to the manager they give me all these stories and were not taking any blames for anything. The tech who worked on my car said he didnt broke my engine cover and that the screw was missing so he left it the same way. As a technician you work on someone car engine and did not replace the screw and broke my cover and lied about it and of course Nissan backs him eventhough he was wring and was lying. The manager walked away without even saying a word to us about what was going to be the outcome and when I approach him about this matter he pretend as if he wasnt being rude by saying he saw we were already being taken care of my the tech and service manager so he excused himself. This is how they operate at reed Nissan. They are reed Nissan on West colonial drive in orlando Florida. Nasty.
Intake boot separates from the intake manifold and the engine stalls. This can and has happened to me at freeway speeds. Total loss of power and control. Mechanic has worked on it repeatedly and it keeps coming off. At best it will stay in place for a couple months before it comes off again with no warning. Told my car is not covered by recall but have exact same problem described in recall.
I own a 2007 Nissan Murano that I bought used 1.5 years ago. There are two serious safety issues that the car has and for which Nissan has had to recall thousands of other vehicles. I just cannot understand why my particular vehicle was not covered under the recall. It's just too coincidental and Nissan should be held accountable. Recall number 09V169000 recall date 05/19/2009 component engine and engine cooling the intake air ducts, which are connected to the intermediate resonator in the air intake system of the engine, may separate from the resonator with engine movement. This separation occurs due to the premature aging of the material used in the intake air ducts which causes excessive shrinking. Recall number 08V521000 recall date 10/07/2008 component air bags summary Nissan is recalling 204,361 my 2007-2008 Altima, Altima hybrid, 350Z, 350Z roadster, my 2008 Altima coupe, rogue, my 2009 Murano, and infiniti my 2007-2008 G35 sedan, my 2008 G37 coupe and EX35 passenger vehicles equipped with Continental automotive systems' occupant classification system (OCS) control units. A varistor in the OCS control unit located in the passenger seat cushion may have been manufactured out of specification. Under certain conditions, this could cause an interruption of signal between the OCS and the air bag control unit (acu). Consequence this could result in the passenger air bag being suppressed which could fail to provide adequate protection in the event of a crash.
