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.
We had an accident on January 4. We were rear ended and pushed it to the vehicle in front of us. The truck that hit us was going about 65 miles an hour. Our vehicle is totaled. No air bags deployed and my seat did not engage.
I was in a broadside collision. The front end of my car collided with the side of another car. I was going approximately 30-35 mph at time of impact. I had my seat belt on. The airbags failed to deploy and seat belt did not lock resulting in being thrown forward and impacting the steering wheel. The car sustained severe frontal damage and is a total loss from the insurance company. The car has been well maintained and was serviced by Nissan exclusively. I had no warning lights on prior to the accident occurring.
The contact owns a 2017 Nissan Murano. The contact stated that the front passenger-??s side seat belt had remained locked in the reclined position with the seat belt message displayed on the instrument panel. The vehicle was not diagnosed by the dealer nor an independent mechanic. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 73,319.
Within warranty time frame of vehicle - seatbelt fabric rolls inside of male sliding end mechanism on drivers side front seatbelt when pulled from the left over to the right and into the female end. Resulting in insufficient tightness across lap, and "stuck" fabric that needs to be manually unfolded and "unstuck" from within the male end sliding belt mechanism. Happens several times a day to multiple drivers. Does not occur in passenger side or rear seatbelts. Happens when putting seat belt on before driving. Have had it replaced, and checked three times at dealership, they could not duplicate issue. But it continues to occur daily. May be defective fabric or retractable mechanism?
I purchased a new 2017.5 Nissan Murano Oct 14 2017 one week later the SRS light comes light comes on while driving and stays on. After three trips back and multiple parts replaced including sensor for seatbelt connector that was not attached properly and the replacement of the SRS system. Today 97 days later I was told by my local Nissan dealership that the vehicle was indeed defective at time of purchase. The factory had not connected the harness that connects to the airbags which was causing my SRS light to come on continuously. I am very sad and upset that this has happened to me and I am in process of filing a claim with the Nissan corporation consumer department for a buy back of my vehicle.
