2015 Nissan Murano

CVT SHUDDERS AT LOW SPEEDS 20 - 40 MPH, THE FEELING IS AS IF THE GEARS ARE JAMMING AND BANGING AGAINST EACH OTHER; IMMEDIATELY RELEASING ACCELERATOR AND PRESSING FOR HARDER ACCELERATION TEMPORARY SUPPRESSES THIS BEHAVIOR. ANY INCLINES WHERE CAR SLOWS DOWN AND RPM FALLS CAN LEAD TO REOCCURRENCE OF THE SAME. HAPPENS 2/3 TIMES WHEN THESE CONDITIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE HAPPEN. I BELIEVE THE 'D'-STEP ARTIFICIAL SHIFTER TECHNOLOGY IS GOING OUT OF SYNC WITH REST OF TRANSMISSION ROTATION SPEED AND CAUSING THE GEARS TO GRIND DURING THOSE D-STEP ADJUSTMENTS.

VEHICLE HESTIATES - IT JERKS AND SHUDDERS WHEN ACCELERATING NORMALY AROUND 20 MPH, AND ALSO AROUND 40 MPH. IT FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION ISN'T SHIFTING PROPERLY AND CAUSING ABNORMAL VIBRATION AND INSTABILITY WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE NORMALY. THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION ON CITY STREETS AND URBAN HIGHWAYS WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS - AND AS RECENTLY ON SUNDAY AUGUST 27, 2017.

LESS THAN 48 HOURS OF OWNERSHIP AND VIVA NISSAN OF EL PASO TX WOULD NOT TAKE BACK THIS VEHICLE THAT HAS A HORRIBLE GLARE REFLECTION FROM THE SUN WHEN THE STYLIZED HOOD ANGLES REFLECT BACK LIGHT INTO THE VEHICLE AND AGAINST OTHER DASH CHROME ACCENTS. DEALER DID, HOWEVER, SEND US TO HIS "FAVORITE" AUTO TINT SHOP, UNIVERSAL TINTING IN EL PASO TX. THEY WERE TOLD BY THE DEALER TO PUT ON A 70% OPTIK NANO CERAMIC TINT ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD AND SEND THE NISSAN DEALER THE BILL OF $100. THAT COMPANY DID SUCH A RUSH JOB AND LEFT BUBBLES AND VISUAL IMPRESSION OF VIEWING THROUGH A FISHBOWL, NOT TO MENTION THE SLIME RESIDUAL FROM THE APPLICATION THAT WAS LEFT ALL ACROSS THE LEATHER DASH BOARD. 82 HOURS AFTER PURCHASE WE REVIEWED THAT 70% IS NOT STREET LEGAL IN NEW MEXICO WHERE THE CAR DEALER KNEW WE RESIDED, SO WE TOOK THE CAR TO A NM WINDOW TINT COMPANY WHO WILL BE REMOVING THE "DIRTY JOB" (AS THEY DESCRIBED IT) AND WILL DO A CLEAN, CLEAR JOB USING 80% CERAMIC TYPE PRODUCT (BLUE AIR 80 BL SR HPR). FIRSTLY, WHY AFTER LESS THAN 48 HOURS DID THE DEALER, VIVA NISSAN OF EL PASO TEXAS NOT FOLLOW OUR REQUEST TO FREEZE THE FUNDING AND LET US RETURN THE 2015 MURANO AND SELECT ANOTHER LESS DANGEROUS VEHICLE TO DRIVE? SECONDLY, WHY WOULD A 3RD PARTY WINDOW TINTING COMPANY OFFER A SOLUTION THAT WAS NOT STREET LEGAL IN OUR RESIDING STATE? AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, WHY ISN'T NISSAN BUILDING THESE OVERGLASSED, OVER CLASSED, OVER STYLEIZED VEHICLES WITH SUCH REPEATING COMPLAINTS OF GLARE WITHOUT PROVIDING A FACTORY SOLUTION TO THE WINDSHIELD OR PAINT COATING? I GUESS IT COULD BE WORSE, OUR TRANSMISSION COULD BLOW IF IT'S ONE OF THE UNLUCKY ONES FROM A CERTAIN TIMEFRAME WHEN NISSAN FACTORIES WERE TRYING TO SAVE A DIME AND INSTALLED CHEAPER PARTS. HMMM.

PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG STOPS DETECTING ADULT PASSENGER, WAS RECALLED BY NISSAN IN 2016 AND SYSTEM WAS REPROGRAMED, IT'S NOW MAY 2017 AND THE PROBLEM HAS STARTED AGAIN. WILL NEED TO CONTACT NISSAN FOR REPAIRS. ALSO WHEN DRIVING THERE IS AN EXTREME GLARE FROM THE BACK SIDE OF THE HOOD WHICH BLINDS AND DISORIENTS WHEN DRIVING TOWARDS THE SUN, NEARLY WREAKED CAR BECAUSE I COULD NOT SEE FOR A FEW SECONDS. THIS HAPPENS ALL YEAR WHEN SUN SHINES.

AT 20K MILES IN OUR 2015 NISSAN MURANO, WE EXPERIENCED THE CAR CHUGGING AT SPEEDS UNDER 15MPH, TURNING A CORNER, ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. THE CHUGGING WAS FOLLOWED BY ENGINE REVVING. THIS WAS FOLLOWED 2 DAYS LATER BY COMPLETE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL. IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AFTER THE ENGINE FAILED. NISSAN CANNOT DETERMINE A CAUSE AND IS REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION

HELLO I OWN A 2015 MURANO PLATINUM HAD RECALL FOR PASSENGER AIR BAG CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM NOT RECOGNIZING OCCUPANT. HAD SERVICE DONE NOW AIR BAG OFF IS INDICATED ALL THE TIME . I COMPLAINED THAT THIS IS NOT A REAL FIX WAS TOLD THAT'S HOW ALL CARS ARE NOW THAT IS A LIE. THE PROBLEM IS ITS NOT FIXED WHILE DRIVING WITH MY WIFE IN PASSENGER SEAT WITH HER SEAT BELT ON DASH LIGHT SAID AIRBAG OFF I HAVE A PICTURE OF THIS WHICH SHOWS THIS SITUATION NISSAN NEEDS TO REPAIR THIS AND RESTORE IT TO ITS ORIGINAL DESIGN SPECS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME YOU CAN CONTACT ME AT [XXX] [XXX] CONTACT INFORMATION: *DL INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).*JB

I TOOK MY MURANO TO HAVE THE RECALL REPAIRED. NISSAN WOULD NOT GIVE ME THE CAR BACK DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS. THEY GAVE ME A STRIPPED DOWN CAR NOT EQUAL TO MINE. THEY SAID IT TAKES FIVE DAYS TO GET THE PART FROM NEW YORK. THAT IS A JOKE. THEY SHOULD BE FORCED TO EXPIDITE THEY PART SO I CAN HAVE MY CAR BACK! THEY ARE TOO CHEAP TO PAY FOR OVERNIGHT SHIPPING. I WANTED THEM TO GIVE ME A CAR LIKE MINE, THEY SAID IT IS UP TO THE DEALER. I REMINDED THEM THAT THEY RECALLED THE CAR THAT IS DEFECTIVE NOT THE DEALER. THEY GET AWAY WITH STICKING IT TO THE CUSTOMER, THEY DO NOT CARE.
