2006 Nissan Murano

WHEN MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN, I HEARD A CRACK UNDERNEATH THE DRIVER'S SIDE. AFTERWARDS THE SEAT NOW ROCKS BACK AND FORTH AND LIFTS UP WHEN MAKING TURNS. I HAVE SEARCHED ALL OVER THE WEB AND IT SEEMS THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT WITH NISSAN DRIVERS SIDE SEATS ON SOME OF THEIR VEHICLES TO THE POINT THAT THEY ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE FACT THAT NISSAN IS NOT STANDING BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS. I DRIVE A 2006 NISSAN MURANO AND IT ONLY HAS 51,000 MILES ON IT. THE ISSUE APPEARS TO BE WITH THE SEAT BRACKET LIFTER LINK ASSEMBLY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT WAS NOT SECURED TO THE FRAME AND REMAINED IN A TILTED POSITION DUE TO THE FRACTURED SEAT MOUNTING BRACKET. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR INSPECTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE DEFECT. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM MY SONS SCHOOL IN AFTERNOON RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC WHEN THERE WAS A VERY LOUD CRACKING SOUND AND THE CAR WAS JERKING UNCONTROLLABLY. I HAD TO SLOW DOWN TO 10 MILES AN HOUR IN A 45 ZONE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE INTO SAFE HAVEN. IN MY RESEARCH THIS IS A DEFECT OF THE CVT TRANSMISSION FOR NISSAN AND I AM CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF SOMEONE WHO IS LESS EXPERIENCED OR IN AN EVEN MORE UNSAFE ENVIRONMENT WHEN THIS HAPPENS TO THEM! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT FAILED TO RETRACT. THE SEAT BELT ALSO BECAME ABNORMALLY TIGHT AROUND HER CHILD. AS A RESULT, THE SEAT BELT HAD TO BE CUT IN ORDER TO RELEASE THE CHILD AND AVOID SUFFOCATION. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE CHILD HAD BRUISES ON HIS STOMACH BUT WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

CURRENTLY HAVE TO REPLACE THE POWER STEERING HOSE. MASSIVE LEAK AND USING A BOTTLE OF POWER STEERING FLUID EVERY COUPLE DAYS. I HAVE READ AND REVIEWED A MINIMUM OF 100 COMPLAINTS OF THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM BUT NISSAN REFUSES TO DO A RECALL ON THIS MATTER. I DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS UNTIL MY POWER STEERING QUIT WORKING WELL ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 55MPH DURING A RAIN STORM. I WAS VERY CLOSE TO GOING IN THE DITCH. THIS IS NOT A $50 FIX BUT A $450 FIX AND A PROBLEM THAT SHOULD NOT BE OCCURING. I WOULD BE FINE IF IT WAS A CLAMP THAT CAME LOSE OR A BEARING WAS LEAKING BUT FOR 100'S OF HIGH PRESSURE POWER STEERING LINES TO BE FAULTY IS A FACTORY MALFUNCTION AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. THANK YOU *TT

BOUGHT CAR USED IN MAY 2013. AUGUST 14 GOT INTO CAR IN MORNING FOR WORK AND SEAT FELT WOBBLY. WHEN I LEFT WORK AND GOT INTO CAR SEAT LEANED BACK AND TOWARDS DRIVERS DOOR. IMMEDIATELY DROVE TO MECHANICS SHOP AND WAS THEN TOLD THE SEAT SUPPORT HAD BROKEN AGAIN. HAD BEEN WELDED ONCE BEFORE AND WELD BROKE. WHEN LOOKING FOR A REPLACEMENT SEAT READ THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED SO MANY TIMES THAT NISSAN HAD MADE A REPLACEMENT PART THAT WAS A SOLID PIECE OF METAL THAT CORRECTED THE "Y" SHAPED BRACKET THAT HAS BROKEN REPEATEDLY ON MANY CARS USUALLY @ 75,000 MILES. NISSAN DID NOT GIVE THIS PIECE TO THE MURANOS OWNERS, INSTEAD SOLD IT TO THEM. FURIOUS AND DISAPPOINTED WITH NISSAN FOR NOT HAVING A RECALL. PEOPLE COULD DIE IF THEY WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THIS HAPPENED. *TR

I WAS ROUNDING A CURVE IN THE ROAD GOING ABOUT 25 MPH AND MY SEAT TRACK BROKE! I KNOW THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE VIA INTERNET RESEARCH. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD! IF I WERE TO BE IN AN ACCIDENT, MY SEAT WOULD FAIL COMPLETELY AND I'D BE BADLY INJURED OR AT WORST HURLED THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD!! THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL!!!! FURTHERMORE, I CANNOT AFFORD TO FIX THE ISSUE. THE DEALERSHIP HAS QUOTED ME OVER A THOUSAND DOLLARS!! ARE YOU GOING TO WAIT FOR A GRAPHIC DEATH BEFORE YOU FIX THIS ISSUE. IF YOU GOOGLE HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS, I'M SURE YOU'LL SEE IT CONSTITUTES A RECALL! *TR

FAULTY FUEL GAUGE, FUEL FLOAT OR FUEL MONITORING SYSTEM. I FILLED UP THE CAR AND THE GAUGE READS EMPTY. IT WILL ERRATICALLY SHOW DIFFERENT FUEL LEVELS RANGING ANYWHERE FROM EMPTY TO HALF-FULL TO FULL. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO KNOW HOW MUCH FUEL IS LEFT. AFTER DOING A BRIEF INTERNET SEARCH I DISCOVERED THAT THEIR ARE MULTIPLE ENTRIES FOR THIS ISSUE FROM OTHER NISSAN OWNERS. *TR

I TRIED TO PARK MY CAR IN A PARKING. IT WOULD NOT GO INTO PARK; IT WOULD GO NO FURTHER THAN NEUTRAL GEAR. AS A RESULT, BECAUSE I COULD NOT GO INTO REVERSE I HAD TO DRIVE OVER A MEDIAN TO EXIT THE PARKING LOT. I SUBSEQUENTLY DISCOVERED THAT TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS ARE ENDEMIC WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL. WHY HAVE YOU NOT ORDERED NISSAN TO ISSUE A RECALL? *TR
