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.
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!
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.
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
