To whom this may concern, Y husband owns a Nissan Murano 2007 AWD. He uses this car as his daily as he has to travel for work from Shirley NY to Garden City NY 5-6 times a week. On Dec 10th as he was leaving home to go to work he got on the main road and his car lost control. Thank god there was no one around him and everyone was alert because his car almost caused a fatal accident. My father was able to tow it back home and I started calling mechanic shops to see who would be able to check his car and fix it asap. I finally get in touch with a mechanic and my father takes it to his shop the mechanic looked at the car and told us that his whole K Frame was rusted and came off completely. He said -€œ this is a common issue with Nissan Murano 2007, I worked at Nissan dealership and we would see this all the time and it-€™s very dangerous you cannot drive this car-€ My question is if this is such a common issue. Why isn-€™t this recalled" Why are these car still out on the road" We have to spend insane amount of money that we don-€™t have to fix this issue because we can-€™t afford to buy a brand new car but no only that my husband could-€™ve almost lost his life and hurt other ones because of this issue. This seriously needs to be fixed. After doing my research I see many people complained about this not only a while back but recently and still nothing has been done. Our car is still in the shop and we have no idea when we-€™ll get it back due to the cost of these parts. Please do something about this.
I purchased a 2007 Nissan Murano the end of June. The first time I drove it on a wet road I almost lost control, and I was driving well BELOW the speed limit. The next week I got different tires put on and took it for an alignment. The first independent service center I took it to showed me where the rear subframe on BOTH the driver and passenger were completely rusted through, and they told me I should drive the vehicle as little as possible until I got it fixed. I took it to a second independent service center to see if it could be fixed without having to be completely replaced, they told me they could not, nor could an aligment be done and that I should stop driving it immediately. I had only had the car for a month and a half before I had to park it. This is a MAJOR issue that needs to be addressed by Nissan!! I don't have the money to have the car fixed, nor can I sell it. So I'm making payments on a car that is doing nothing but collecting dust and taking up space. Unfortunately I am learning that this is a major issue with this vehicle. Nissan needs to fix it before people are killed, not just people driving the vehicle, but other motorists, and possible pedestrians. The airbag light is also on and I haven't been in an accident, nor has there been any work done to it since I bought it.
The rear frame and rear control arms are completely rusted away. We had it looked at when it did not feel right while driving and it smelled like burning rubber when driving short distances. The mechanic refused to service it because of what he saw. It was not safe, which means it is not safe to drive. The tires are tilted in at the top. It is unsafe to drive. It has @ 141k miles. You all are endangering lives if you do not recall for this issue, as I have now seen multiple folks that have also complained about the same issue. WHY IS THERE NO RECALL?? Now we have a vehicle that we can not drive, because it is not safe AND we can not sell, because it is not safe. Please reach out to me on or before 8/25/22, if Nissan is willing to resolve.

I see the air bag light on and won't turn off for about almost a week and a half after i Purchase it a week later this year and it lightly shakes when I put on drive, don't know if that will be another issue. Hopefully I can have your company gide me in the right direction to solve this problem.
Purchased vehicle about 8 months ago, tires needed replaced badly a few weeks ago. During the change I was advised vehicle needed a wheel alignment due to tires going inward. Well today after picking up vehicle I was informed my rear sub frame of vehicle is severely corroded and unsafe to drive, rear body bushings are basically holding up by nothing. After visiting website this seems to be a common finding this year. My thoughts would be they stop selling this year and manner of vehicle due to safety concerns
I bought this vehicle with a salvaged title. After waiting a month I got it. There were no details as to why it was salvage. There were no boxes checked as far as parts being replaced or fixed. Odometer said 69000. The vehicle is still brand new but really its not. It takes on water. Bad. Under the hood it has no air filter. The breatherbox isnt even clamped down. No hise from rad to box to adjust air flow for the mass af sensor. The ww fill bottle has a hole. No fluid can be added. The front windshield isnt airtight. It leaks bad. There are no headlights. I discovered this when I needed them. The inside is overcome with mildew smell. The airbagdoesnt work. Heck not connected. The last inspection sticker said 2020. When searchimg the VIN theres no I do to be had. The trim ariund the fog lamps was never finished. The catch playe wasnt ever added. It failed inspection. And the place I bought it is a licensed shop bit they sent me down the road. Didnt wamt their name on the paper I guess. The ac doesnt work right. I believe it to be electrical. And thjs was sold to me as a used vehicle. I was mislead. He'll wherever it has been sitting it was coveted but theres still miunds of mold and funk everywhere. Its a very suspiciius vehicle. I took it back. They tokd me they wojkd sell it again. No one needs to be drivi G this vehicle. They are selling it at full fair market value too. I just wanted to bring this to your attention.
Just purchased vehicle in November took it to mechanics because I kept getting shocked by the seat they stated the engine had been on fire with previous owner and I should check for and recall since the dealership is not willing to assist now that vehicle is completely non functional
The car continuously cuts off the brake light and battery light are on we have replaced alternator twice, once remanufactured second time brand new. Also replaced with battery thats when the lights came on before that it would occasionally have a hard time starting.
My intake hose keeps coming off the resonator, like completely. My car will lose power immediately whether I'm driving on a hwy at 70 mph or stopped at a light. I lose power steering and its difficult for me to press down on the breaks. I'm very luck I was in the position to be able to pull off the hwy safely. I have to tighten the bracket tight enough to make it home. A lot of times I'm unable to tighten it good enough and it will come off again. Most recent incident happened on 3/2/2020 at a traffic light. This has been happening for the better part of a year and a half. Very scary to go through.
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.
Recently my wife had been informing me of a problem on our 2007 Nissan Murano was unstable when being driven, and makes loud clunking noises when turning and reversing at low speed. I drove the SUV myself on December 2nd, and while turning a corner at a major intersection it went over a small bump or manhole cover. At that time the rear end of the car fishtailed, and I nearly lost control of the vehicle. The rest of the drive home the vehicle felt unstable while driving at approximately 35 mph on a dry, smooth, and straight road. Upon arriving home, about 1 mile from where the incident happened I noticed the driver side rear wheel was cambered inwards about 10-15 degrees. I contacted my mechanic by phone, and he told me to not drive the car and have it towed to his independent repair shop for an inspection. When he lifted the vehicle off the ground he discovered the problem. He sent me the attached picture, and said the vehicle's subframe has 'extreme' rust which is unusual for only being 12 years old, and that it is 'not safe to drive'. additionally I have read many articles of other Nissan vehicles having problems with corrosion underneath the vehicle for states that use road salt in the winter. Currently there is a repair campaign going on with Nissan Altima corrosion issues, and I am concerned many other Murano have the same problem as mine. I have also contacted Nissan, and opened a safety concern with them. The reference number is 38078953 Nissan says there are no recalls or campaigns with this 2007 Nissan Murano for corrosion.
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 Nissan. 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.
