2005 Nissan Murano

DOOR LOCKS PROBLEM. WHEN I LOCK THE DOORS WITH MY CONTROL OR FROM THE INSIDE, THEY DON'T LOCK OR UNLOCK. SAME WITH THE TRUNK, I CANNOT OPEN MY TRUNK BECAUSE THE SYSTEM DOESN'T WORK. I CONTACTED DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME I HAVE TO REPLACE LOCKS (ALL 5) FOR MORE THAN $1500.00 I ALSO SEE THIS ISSUE IS COMMON IN ALL NISSAN IN DIFFERENT YEARS. A RECALLED SHOULD BE CALLED SINCE THIS IS A SECURITY ISSUE WITH THE CAR. THANKS *TR

2005 NISSAN MURANO. DRIVER SEAT ANCHOR/BRACKET ON BACK LEFT BROKE. THIS CAUSES THE SEAT TO ROCK SIGNIFICANTLY WHILE DRIVING, ESPECIALLY DURING TURNS. MAIN SAFETY CONCERN IS THE THAT THE ISSUE CAUSES THE SEAT BELT TO FIT INCORRECTLY. IT IS EITHER BECOMING TOO LOOSE OR TOO TIGHT DEPENDING ON THE DIRECTION OF THE SEAT ROCKING, THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND WAS TOLD IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND THE COST TO FIX IS $1,000.00. THE ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN FIXED YET BUT WILL IN THE NEXT MONTH. *TR

MY DRIVER'S SEAT BROKE IN MY 2005 MURANO (68,000 MILES) IN THE SAME MANNER AS A NUMBER OF OTHERS DRIVERS HAVE INDICATED ALREADY. THE DRIVER SEAT BROKE WHILE DRIVING CAUSING ME TO LOOSE CONTROL FOR A TIME....VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION! THE DRIVER SEAT WELD CAME LOOSE ON THE LEFT SIDE AND NOW ROCKS BACK AND FORTH WHILE DRIVING AND GOING AROUND CORNERS. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY INDICATED IT WAS A $1000 PLUS FIX! HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE SEAT ASSEMBLY. DEALER AND EVEN THE EXTENDED WARRANTY I PURCHASED WILL NOT COVER THIS OBVIOUS DEFECT AND SAFETY ISSUE. WILL BE CALLING NISSAN NEXT...BUT FROM THE LOOKS OF OTHER COMPLAINTS, IT WILL BE A WASTE OF TIME SINCE I HAVEN'T HEARD OF NISSAN HELPING FIX ANYONE WITH THIS ISSUE. I'M AFRAID THAT UNTIL I GET THIS FIXED THAT THE ROCKING MOTION WILL BREAK THE LAST SUPPORT AND CAUSE THE ENTIRE SEAT TO BREAK LOOSE WHILE DRIVING. KNOW IF THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE....PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IS!!!! *TR

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN MURANO AND HAVE HAD NUMEROUS "INCIDENTS" REGARDING A CONTINULING PROBLEM WITH THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR. THE MECHANISM THAT HOLDS THE VISOR UPRIGHT AND IN AN ANGLE POSITION TO BLOCK THE SUN IS NOT WORKING AND REPEATEDLY DROPS AND DROOPS RATHER UNEXPECTEDLY TO THE POINT OF HINDERING MY ABILITY OF DRIVING SAFELY. NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE VISOR DROPS AND BLOCKS MY VIEW SEVERAL TIMES THIS HAS NEARLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE TALKED TO THE NISSAN DEALER AND THEY SAY IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE, THERE IS NO RECALL INFOMATION AND I MUST REPLACE ON MY OWN EXPENSE REGARDLESS IF I HAVE A WARRANTY. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM AND HAVE NOT HAD ANY SOLUTIONS OTHER THAN TO PAY OVER $500 TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I FIND THIS OUTRAGEOUS AND DANDEROUS. AN ONLINE SEARCH YEILDS A LARGE NUMBER OF OTHER MURANO OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM.

2005 MURANO SL WITH 48900 MILES. FAILED DRIVER'S SEAT AS NOTED IN 207 OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE. UPON GETTING INTO THE VEHICLE, THE LEFT BACK PORTION OF THE DRIVER'S SEAT SUDDENLY POPPED AND TILTED TO THE LEFT. THERE IS A SEVERE ROCKING MOTION OF THE SEAT NOW AND TURNING RIGHT CAUSES THE DRIVER TO HAVE TO HOLD ON TO THE STEERING WHEEL WITH FORCE IN ORDER TO REMAIN UPRIGHT AND DRIVE APPROPRIATELY. CURRENTLY AT THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP HAVING THE PROBLEM DIAGNOSED. HAVEN'T YET GOTTEN WORD ON THE "COST" OF THIS REPAIR BUT FEEL STRONGLY THAT THIS SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF BY NISSAN AS THIS IS A STRUCTURAL FAILURE THAT SHOULD NOT OCCUR. HAVING NO INJURIES REPORTED DOES NOT MEAN THIS COULDN'T HAPPEN SOON. IF YOU ARE DRIVING AND MAKING A TURN AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE YOU MOST DEFINITELY COULD LOSE CONTROL OF YOUR VEHICLE.

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN MURANO, THE DRIVERS SEAT SUPPORT BAR BROKE UNDERNEATH THE SEAT.THIS IS THE TUBE THAT SUPPORTS THE SEAT IN THE FRONT. IT IS A NOT A HEAVY ENOUGH MATERIAL. THIS IS CAUSING THE SEAT TO BE LOP SIDED AND LOOSE. IT ALSO ROCKS SIDE TO SIDE WHICH I FEEL IS A SAFETY HAZARD. IF THE CAR WAS IN AN ACCIDENT THE SEAT WOULD COMPLETELY BREAK OFF THE MOUNTS AND CAUSE SEVERE INJURY TO THE DRIVER THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH A LARGE MAJORITY OF NISSAN MURANOS. PLEASE GO TO NISSAN MURANO.ORG AND YOU WILL SEE THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS AS A RECALL BEFORE SOME INNOCENT PERSON GETS KILLED BY NISSAN FOR USING A MATERIAL THAT IS NOT DURABLE ENOUGH. I AM A MECHANICAL ENGINEER BY TRADE AND REVIEWED THE STRESS CALCULATIONS FOR THE TYPE OF MATERIAL USED AND IT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR THE PURPOSE. PLEASE DO SOMETHING BEFORE IT TURNS INTO A BAD SITUATION FOR SOMEONE. *CN INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

AT ABOUT 40,000 MILES, THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR STOPPED HOLDING ITS POSITION. AT FIRST WE COULD GET IT TO STAY IN THE UP POSITION; IT JUST WOULDN'T STAY SET IN MID POSITION...IT WAS EITHER ALL THE WAY UP OR ALL THE WAY DOWN. A FEW MONTHS AGO (NOW 80,000 MILES) THE VISOR SLIPS OUT OF THE UP POSITION AND GOES TO THE FULL DOWN POSITION WHEN GOING OVER A BIG BUMP OR AT OTHER RANDOM TIMES. THE MURANO DOESN'T HAVE MUCH HEAD CLEARANCE IN THE FIRST PLACE, SO THE DROPPED VISOR COMPLETELY OBSCURES VISION. FROM OTHER DISCUSSION PAGES ON THE INTERNET, THIS SEEMS LIKE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. *TR
