From time to time the vehicle unexpectedly stalls. Engine does not die but power to transmission is lost. Vehicle will not rev unless it is put into park or neuteral. When transmission is engaged stepping on the accelerator produces no rpms. Vehicle costs to side of road and problem is sometimes remidied with shutting off the engine and restarting other times I have had to have it towed to a repair shop where I have been told there is nothing wrong with the vehicle.
My family has owned a 2007 Nissan Murano for nearly 8 years. In the last year, my wife has experienced extreme trauma as she has had the vehicle completely die on her while in the middle of freeways, highways, and residential roads. We have had the vehicle taken in and inspected by multiple Nissan dealerships and each visit has only resulted in their recommendation of routine maintenance being suggested, such as transmission fluid exchange, brake repair, or battery replacement. Our Murano has recently decided to repeat these same issues after over a year of normal function. My wife was driving the vehicle normally and all of a sudden she began to lose power until the car came to a stop and the function of the vehicle stopped due to what appeared to be an electrical problem. After assessing the issue, I attempted to jump start the vehicle with jumper cables, which allowed the Murano to start, but once it was independently idling, it would again lose power after an attempt to drive the vehicle. I am heavily concerned for the welfare of my wife and daughter as they drive this car daily. The Nissan dealerships that I typically rely on for these critical repairs have been no help and I am at a loss for why this has happened with such a long time frame between issues. I hope that Nissan will issue a recall on this problem and rectify any prior repairs that have been suggested as a resolution to the issue that may very well have not resolved the true issue at hand. I am in dire need of answers as to why a well maintained vehicle would be fine one minute and then completely inoperable the next. The vehicle has had many components replaced and maintained to prolong the life of the vehicle and with 180K miles has the potential to continue for many more. I don't want to pour money into this issue that Nissan needs to address, as I am not the only one having dealt with this!
I'm concerned about the vehicle's safety due to the fact that the engines stops while driving on the road. No warning lights or anything indicating a problem.

The vehicle stalls while driving, I have had several recent times when I am driving down the road and the car completely dies and you lose all power, very unsafe as power steering is lost. I have read this online where other owners have this issue so there has to be a defect in the vehicle. I have checked the battery, cables, replaced sensors, and fuel pump so this has to be something else. My car is a 2007 Murano sl with 150,000 miles.
Was concern about the seat it goes, up but leaks, down and, rocks like it is broke, the airbag light keeps flashing and wont stop, jumpy accelertion, and replacing front brake can be costly. I bought this vehicle and according to internet by VIN# printed out no recalls, shows now I see it had recalls what can I do to get this taken care of? driving down the road the seat felt like it was changing the height and I had to keep readjusting it, I then stopped and went to get out and it rocked. I weigh 100lbs so I could not have broken it.
Car cuts off while driving. Sometimes it wouldn't move. It would start again then cut off again. No radio, lights or anything. Just dead. It has happened more than once. The latest incident was today 03/11/2018 7:30 pm.
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.
The contact owns a 2007 Nissan Murano. While driving 65 mph, the fuel gauge began to fluctuate before the vehicle came to a stop. The check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle failed to start until it was refilled with fuel. The failure recurred intermittently. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump and fuel sending unit failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The VIN was unknown. The failure mileage was 70,000.
Nissan Murano 2007: Faulty fuel level sensor, fuel level sensor harness is open or shorted, fuel level sensor circuit poor electrical connection. Engine light on (service engine soon warning light), incorrect fuel level reading. Also, weak engine mounts, right side engine mount and lower front between engine and radiator. Please advise if there is a recall. Thank you.
Had noticed that the gas gauge read empty and the fuel light came on. I had just put gas in the vechicle 2 days before. I looked for a leak and there was nothing noticable. I filled the tank, returned to the car to check the gauge and noticed that it read 3/4. I started driving and as I was driving it fluctuated betweem full and 3/4. I talked to my wife about the issue and she had noticed that the gas gauge had been reading inaccurately the past couple of days.
My check engine light is on constantly so take it to a mechanic who tells me that Nissan has an ongoing problem with its fuel sensors for years and years on many of its models and has ignored it. Now I'm required to make the repairs on a faulty part to the tune of $655 because my car won't pass inspection otherwise. Nissan has put out a service bulletin (ntb07-069A) for code P0463 but won't help at all with this outrageously expensive repair. Called the dealership and my warranty doesn't cover repairs either. Faulkner Nissan, harrisburg, pa sounded like I was the 100th person calling about this issue and they wanted nothing to do with me. I am single mother, working full time, saving to send a daughter to college. I take good care of my Nissan Murano knowing it is vital to my ability to provide for my family. I will now need to break the law to drive it to get to work because I don't have $655 for the repairs. This is downright wrong. Nissan should stand by its product and fix this issue. Please help.
