2014 Nissan Murano

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Murano. The contact stated that there was a delay in response while the vehicle was shifting gears. The check engine warning light was illuminated indicating that the engine was overheating. The contact stated that whenever the accelerator pedal was depressed, the vehicle would fail to respond. The failure would occur after driving the vehicle for approximately an hour. The contact had taken the vehicle to the dealer who diagnosed that the transmission failed. The mechanic replaced the battery. There was no repair performed on the transmission. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 55,000.

During regular driving, the vehicle's engine emitted a loud bang, followed by a lot of white smoke coming from the engine and substantial fluid leakage from the vehicle to the ground. The dash was clear: there were no warning lamps, messages or any symptoms prior to the event. The dealer (Jim Coleman Nissan, Bethesda) found that the high pressure power steering hose had "blown off" and the power steering switch was also damaged and needed to be replaced. I pulled over and parked, but did not stay in the vehicle because online research on my phone after the fact showed that 2014 Muranos were previously recalled for this problem and that fires sometimes ensued. Nissan HQ stated that the recall for 2014 Muranos for this problem did not include my 2014 Murano's VIN #. It seems an unlikely coincidence and other Muranos of this year should be inspected.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Murano. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the front passenger’s seat air bag warning light continuously blinked which indicated that the passenger’s side air bag system was malfunctioning. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who diagnosed that the air bag components inside the passenger’s side seat was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 22,500.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Murano. The contact stated that the convertible hood failed to close securely. The contact stated that the several functions failed to operate with the convertible top unlatched. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer who confirmed that the convertible hood failed and needed to be replaced. The contact was referred to a hood specialist. The vehicle had not been repaired due to the owner not being able to purchase the individual parts needed. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The approximate failure mileage 35,000.

MY SUPPLEMENTAL AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON 2/20/21 AND CONTINUED TO FLASH. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP ON 2/27/21 AND THEY SAID THE OCS SENSOR MAT WAS BAD AND IT WOULD COST $4858.13 TO REPLACE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BOTTOM. HE SAID EVERYTHING IS CONTAINED IN THE SEAT BOTTOM SO THE WHOLE THING HAS TO BE REPLACED. HE SAID THIS SOMETIMES HAPPENS BECAUSE WOMEN PUT THERE PURSES IN THE SEAT. REALLY? SOUNDS LIKE IT'S A FAULTY SYSTEM IF THAT'S THE CASE. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND THE 2015-20?? MODELS HAVE ALL HAD RECALLS BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. I'M SURE MY SYSTEM IS FAULTY AS WELL AND SHOULD BE REPLACED BY NISSAN.

IN 2018, I REPLACED THE ORIGINAL TIRES WITH COOPER DISCOVER SRX. THE CAR HAD ABOUT 30000 MILES AT THAT TIME. SINCE THEN, EACH TIRE HAS DEVELOPED LOW PRESSURE, ALERTED THRU TPMS, DUE TO BEAD LEAKS ON 3-4 OCCASIONS. THE TIRE DEALER BLAMES THE ALUMINUM ALLOY WHEELS AS THE FAULT. I'VE HAD NUMEROUS CARS (INCLUDING MURANO'S AND OTHER NISSANS) WITH ALUMINUM ALLOYS, AND NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. HISTORICALLY, COOPER TIRES FOR LIGHT TRUCKS RECALLED IN 1988 FOR BEAD ISSUES.

I HAVE A 2014 NISSAN MURANO. I AM THE ONLY OWNER OF THIS 2014 MURANO. IT CURRENTLY HAS ABOUT 75000 MILES. YESTERDAY MY SUNROOF GLASS SHATTERED FOR NO REASON. I WAS DRIVING BACK HOME WITH MY DAUGHTER ON THE ROAD, WHEN I HEARD THIS HORRIBLE LOUD CRACK. THE FRONT SUNROOF ESSENTIALLY SHATTERED IN ON ITSELF AND TINY PIECES OF GLASS EVERYWHERE. THE SUNROOF LOOKED LIKE SOMETHING HAD EXPLODED FROM THE INSIDE OUT! NISSAN CORPORATE OFFICE REFUSES TO PAY THE REPAIRS! I HAVE READ THAT OTHER PEOPLE WITH NISSAN MURANO'S HAVE HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE.
