2017 Nissan Murano

FRONT RADAR SYSTEM SUDDENLY TURNS OFF WHEN IN MOTION, BE IT ON A HIGHWAY OR STREET. FRONT RADAR/SAFETY/FRONT EMERGENCY BREAKING SYSTEM/CRUISE CONTROL DISENGAGES OR SHUTS OFF EVERYDAY/ IN MOTION AND DURING FF; 1. ON HIGHWAY AND ON CRUISE CONTROL ON A RANDOM AND FREQUENT BASIS WHICH ALSO DISENGAGES THE BREAKING ASSIST/FORWARD COLLISION BREAKING ASSIST 2. DURING SHARP TURNS 3. ON A HIGHWAY WHEN ANOTHER VEHICLE OVERTAKES OR VISE VERSA 4. INADVERTENTLY SHUTS OFF FROM TIME TO TIME. MADE COMPLAINS ALREADY DURING THE 1ST AND 2ND ROUTINE MAINTENANCE. 'DURING THE TIME OF 1ST VISIT/MAINTENANCE, CUSTOMER REP SAID THERE SYSTEM WAS DOWN AND I SHOULD GET BACK TO THEM. '2ND VISIT/MAINTENANCE, CUSTOMER REP SAID, THEY HAVE OTHER CUSTOMERS WITH SAME PROBLEM AND REPLACING THE SENSOR UNIT DOES NOT SOLVE IT, AND THEY ARE CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR A RESOLUTION, AND WILL KEEP IN TOUCH ONCE THEY HAVE THE SOLUTION. '3RD VISIT, THEY DID SOME TESTS AND CONFIRMED MY COMPLAINS, HOWEVER, CUSTOMER REP SAID THEY HAVE NO RECORDS OF MY COMPLAINS AND THE REASON WHY MY FRONT RADAR SENSOR IS NOT WORKING IS DUE TO THE INCURRED DAMAGES ON MY FRONT BUMPER ( FROM ON STREET PARKING). AND CUSTOMER REP SAID I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF THE SENSOR FOR $1400. SEEN A LOT OF SAME COMPLAINS ON FORUM WITH THE SAME DILEMMA.

ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, THE STEERING HAS COMPLETELY FAILED TO WORK FOR APPROXIMATELY A 5 TO 10 SECOND INTERVAL WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THERE IS NO CONSISTENCY TO WHEN THE ISSUE OCCURS IN REGARDS TO SPEED OR STRAIGHT DRIVING VERSUS DURING A TURN. NISSAN HAS CHECKED THE CAR OVER AND FOUND NO ISSUE. THEY TOOK SOME CORRECTIVE/PREVENTATIVE MEASURES TO CLEAN UP ELECTRICAL CONTACTS IN CASE THAT WAS THE CAUSE, BUT THE ISSUE HAS SINCE RECURRED

MY CAR HAS A FRONT EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM. THIS SYSTEM IS LOCATED AT THE FRONT OF THE CAR, IN LOWER GRILLE. THE SENSOR DETECTS WHEN A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF YOU HAS STOPPED. AS YOU GET CLOSER TO THE VEHICLE, IF YOU DO NOT STOP, THE CAR WILL SOUND A 3-BEEP ALERT NOTIFYING YOU TO STOP. IF YOU STILL DO NOT STOP, THE CAR WILL APPLY THE BRAKES AND FORCE THE CAR TO STOP TO PREVENT AN ACCIDENT., I WAS DRIVING HOME, WHEN THE 3-BEEP ALERT SOUNDED, AND THE DASHBOARD DISPLAY STARTED FLASHING RED AND WHITE LIGHTS. A MESSAGE ON THE DISPLAY STATED THAT A CRASH WAS IMMINENT. THEN THE BRAKES ENGAGED SUDDENLY, AND THE CAR ALMOST CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. THE BRAKES ENGAGED SO HARD AND SO QUICKLY, THAT IT THREW ME FORWARD IN THE SEAT. AT THE TIME, THERE WAS NO CAR IN FRONT OF ME COMING TO A SUDDEN STOP AND NO CRASH WAS IMMINENT. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE, AND THERE ARE CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS, BUT NISSAN WON'T ISSUE A RECALL. I'VE TAKEN MY CAR TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIPS AND THEY WON'T REPLACE THE SENSOR. THE DEALER TOLD ME MY SENSOR BRACKET WAS SLIGHTLY BENT, BUT THE VEHILE WAS BOUGHT NEW AND NEVER IN AN ACCEDENT I ASKED IF THE BRAKET WAS INSTALLED FORM THE FACTORY SLIGHTLY BENT THEY SAID IT COULD OF BEEN? THIS DOESN'T EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED. ACCORDING TO THE OWNER'S MANUAL, IF THE SENSOR BRACKET WAS BENT IT SHOULD NEVER OF WORKED FROM THE START??? , IF THIS WERE THE CASE, THERE WILL BE A MESSAGE ON THE DASHBOARD DISPLAY INDICATING THE SENSOR IS OBSTRUCTED OR NOT FUNTIONING, AND THE FRONT BRAKING SYSTEM WILL TURN OFF. THIS WAS THE 3RD TIME IT HAS HAPPENED . I DECIDED TO GET ANOTHER UNBIASED OPINION FROM A NON NISSAN DEALER REPAIR SHOP. THEY ORDERED A BRACKET FROM NISSAN AND SHOWED ME THAT IT WAS NOT BENT THAT NISSAN HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE CRASH SENSOR AND IS LOOKING FOR ANY WAY TO DENY THE REPAIR. THE SHOP OWNER TOLD ME TO CALL NSSAN AND HAVE A REP COMEOUT

ON JANUARY 22, 2020 AROUND 5:30 AM I DISCOVERED THAT MY BACKUP CAMERA WAS NOT FUNCTIONING. I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND ON AT LEAST THREE TIMES TO TRY AND GET IT TO WORK BUT THAT DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THE BACKUP CAMERA IS SHOWING THE RED, GREEN AND YELLOW GUIDE LINES BUT THE SCREEN IS BLACK. IT IS NOT RETURNING ANY IMAGES FROM BEHIND THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS AT HOME IN A PARKING SPOT WHEN THIS OCCURRED. ONE WEEK LATER TO TODAY, JANUARY 28,2020, THE BACKUP CAMERA IS STILL NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. IT DID WORK FOR A FEW DAYS ON ITS OWN WITHOUT BEING REPAIRED AFTER JANUARY 22,2020 AND THEN STOPPED WORKING AGAIN. IT SEEM TO BE WORKING OFF AND ON AND I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING IT. WHEN I CONTACTED NISSAN, MY VEHICLE MILLAGE WAS AT 36,099. NISSAN OF CORAL SPRINGS FLORIDA STATED THAT THE WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 36,000 AND WILL NOT HONOR MY VEHICLE. I AM A MOTHER OF TWO YOUNG CHILDREN AND DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE REVERSING IN MY NISSAN BECAUSE LOOKING THROUGH THE BACK OR REAR GLASS OF THE NISSAN MURANO IS VERY DIFFICULT DUE TO ITS DESIGN.

THE ABS LIGHT, CRASH SENSOR LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WILL COME ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE THE CAR IS ON. THE THREE LIGHTS WILL COME ON AT THE SAME TIME, AND WILL REMAIN ON UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF. THE LIGHTS DO NOT COME ON EACH TIME THE CAR IS STARTED, AND WHEN THEY DO COME ON, IT IS NOT ONLY AT THE TIME OF START UP. THEY USUALLY COME ON AT LEAST ONCE A DAY. THEY HAVE COME ON WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED, STARTING UP FROM A RED LIGHT, WHILE DRIVING (VARIOUS SPEEDS), ETC. THERE IS NO RHYME OR REASON AS TO WHEN THE LIGHTS COME ON. WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON, NOTHING ELSE IS GOING ON WITH THE CAR--ONLY NORMAL USAGE--NO WEIRD SOUNDS, FEELINGS, ETC. THE CAR HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE PAST 2 MONTHS. PER THE DEALERSHIP, THE ABS SENSORS, THE SPEED CONTROL SENSORS AND THE ACTUATOR HAVE ALL BEEN REPLACED, BUT THE LIGHTS STILL PRESENT THEMSELVES. NISSAN TECHNICIANS HAVE ADVISED THAT THEY WILL NEED TO BRING A NISSAN ENGINEER TO HELP THEM WITH THE ISSUE. THE CAR IS NOT EVEN 2 YEARS OLD AND HAS 19K MILES ON IT. THIS IS NOT AN ISSUE THAT I SHOULD BE DEALING WITH AND IT NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED PERMANENTLY SO IT IS NOT A RECURRING ISSUE.
