THERE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A CLIP TO HOLD THE FLOOR MATS IN PLACE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. NISSAN DEALER REPLACED IT FOR FREE TWO YEARS AGO. THEY SAID IT WAS A RECALL. THE CLIP CAME OFF, AND THEY TOLD ME THEY HAVE TO CHARGE ME FOR THIS RECALL ITEM THIS TIME. THE MISSING CLIP CAUSES THE DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR MAT TO MOVE UNDER THE GAS AND BRAKE PEDAL, MAKING IT A HAZARD. THE BRAKE PEDAL CAN'T ENGAGE PROPERLY, WHICH COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT.

17V184000 · Steering:hydraulic Power Assist:hose, Piping, And Connections

Mar 16, 2017

Nissan North America (Nissan) is recalling certain 2013-2014 Murano and Murano Cross Cabriolet vehicles. The power steering hose clamp may not adequately secure the hose, allowing the hose to detach and leak power steering fluid.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: If the power steering fluid leaks onto a heat source such as hot engine or exhaust components, there could be an increased risk of a fire.

Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will install a power steering high pressure hose kit, free of charge. The recall began May 10, 2017. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.
