2017 Nissan Murano

WHEN MAKING SHARP TURN (LEFT OR RIGHT) INTO FAST MOVING TRAFFIC AND DRIVING STRAIGHT AFTER THE TURN, WHILE PUSHING ACCELERATOR PEDAL HARD, THE RPM WILL GO UP HIGH BUT THE SPEED WILL NOT (IT WILL INCREASE VERY SLOWLY). THE RPM WOULD STAY HIGH (5000 TO 6000) THERE WILL BE LOTS OF NOISE FROM THE DRIVE TRAIN BUT NOTHING WILL HAPPEN TO LOWER THE RPM. IN ORDER TO MAKE THE CVT WORK PROPERLY AFTER THAT, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL HAS TO BE FULLY RELEASED AND THE RPM WILL HAVE TO GO DOWN. I CAN REPLICATE THIS CONDITION MOST OF THE TIME (IT DEPENDS ON WHETHER THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS PUSHED HARD ENOUGH WHILE TURNING), AND IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING EVER SINCE PURCHASE OF THIS CAR. AT THE DEALERSHIP GARAGE I WAS TOLD THAT SINCE THERE IS NO FAULT CODE THEY CAN'T HELP AND REFUSED TO TAKE A RIDE IN THE CAR.

PLATINUM PACKAGE. WHEN CAR IS IN MOTION, FORWARD COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM MALFUNCTION INCORRECTLY IDENTIFIES A PENDING COLLISION, INDICATING THAT A COLLISION IS IMMINENT. ONCE THE WARNING OCCURS, BOTH VISUAL ON THE DASH, AND AUDIBLE BEEP, IT WILL NOT GO AWAY. IT CONTINUES UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF. OCCURS OFTEN. DEALERSHIP ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR FAIL. PARTS DEPARTMENTS CLAIM REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. THIS IS DANGEROUS TO TIMID DRIVERS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. ALTHOUGH PROBLEM EXISTS IN LIGHT TRAFFIC AS WELL.

C/S FORWARD COLLISION WARNING KEEPS PERIODICALLY COMING ON WITH NO OBSTRUCTION IN FRONT OF VEHICLE. FIRST REPORTED JUNE 2018, REPLACED FAILED AGAIN, CURATING UNDER ENGINEERING REVIEW, AT THIS TIME WHEN IT ALARMS ALL TIME, ALSO CURSE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK, AND SIDE ALARM OFF AND ON. WHEN IN MOTION, WE HAVE INSURANCE DISCOUNT FOR THE COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM THAT IS NOT WORKING.

RATTLING / VIBRATING NOISES INTERIOR LEFT DOOR / VENT / DASH AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURES. NISSAN IS AWARE OF DEFECTIVE PARTS. 4 ATTEMPTS WERE MADE TO REPAIR IT AND THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS AT EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE ABOVE 90 DEGREES (FLORIDA SUMMER). THE NOISES OCCUR WHILE DRIVING AROUND 45 MPH AND ARE A MAJOR DISATRACTION AND SAFETY ISSUE.DRIVING IN CITY STREETS. THE NOISE IS INTERMITTENT AND ACCORDING TO THE DEALER NISSAN HAS PREVIOUSLY ISSUED AN ADVISORY (TO DEALERS) WITH A FIX. THE "RUBBER BAND TYPE FIX" IS TEMPORARY AND THE NOISES KEEP ON OCCURRING, INTERMITTENTLY AFTER IT IS PARKED IN OPEN AREA FOR 1-2 HOURS AND CAR IS DRIVEN ON CITY STREETS AT AROUND 45 MPH. THE NOISES ARE DISTRACTION AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD. NISSAN ATTEMPTED FIXING IT 3 TIMES, AT FIRST DISMISSED IT STATING CANNOT DUPLICATE. SIMILAR INTERIOR NOISES OCCUR INTERMITTENTLY ON THE RIGHT SIDE DOOR AND DASH WHILE DRIVE AT SIMILAR SPEEDS.THE EXTERNAL TEMPERATURES ARE ABOVE 90 AND THE AC IS ON AT 72-75 DEGREES. I HAVE VIDEO TAPE ON IPHONE RECORDING THE SOUND, THE FILE IS TOO BIG TO EMAIL OR TRANSFER TO MY LAPTOP (I HAVEN'T FIGURED IT OUT AS YET). IT FIRST HAPPENED IN AUGUST 2017 AND HAS CONTINUED. THE PROBLEM GETS WORSE WITH INCREASING EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE. WORK ORDERS CONTAINS PERSONAL INFORMATION AND THEREFORE NOT ATTACHED

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP. THE BRAKES HAD COMPLETELY FAILED. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE. NONE OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE NECK AND HEAD. THE DRIVER OF THE OTHER VEHICLE SUFFERED UNKNOWN INJURIES. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS REQUIRED. THE CONTACT WAS PROVIDED WITH INSURANCE CLAIM NUMBER: 258-472-1S236. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE CRASH. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 14,099. *DT *JS

CONTINUALLY GETTING ERROR MESSAGE SAYING "UNAVAILABLE FRONT RADAR OBSTRUCTION". TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS FINE AFTER CLEARING THE CODE. DROVE AWAY FROM DEALER AND IT DID IT AGAIN. TOOK IT BACK AND THEY NOW SAY NISSAN IS "ENGINEERING" THE PROBLEM AND DON'T RECOMMEND A FIX. TOOK IT ON THE HIGHWAY AND WAS PASSING ANOTHER VEHICLE AT 75MPH WHEN IT WENT OFF AND IT DISABLED MY CRUISE CONTROL. THAT WAS QUITE STARTLING AND IS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS. CALLED NISSAN CORPORATE OFFICE AND FILED A CASE. THEY DON'T SEEM TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM, YET I SEE OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WHEN I CHECK FORUMS ON THE INTERNET.

KEY FOBS AND AUTO START DOESN'T ALWAYS WORK. MURANO WILL BE PARKED AND OFF AND I WALK UP WITHIN 15 FT OF THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AND TRY TO AUTOSTART AND IT CONSISTENTLY ONLY WORKS ABOUT 1 IN 4 TRIES. DEALERSHIP HAS REPLACED BOTH FOBS AND BATTERIES AND STILL NOT WORKING EVERY SINGLE TIME. ALSO, SEVERAL TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR, I GET IN AND PLACE FOOT ON BRAKE AND PUSH BUTTON TO START AND IT WILL NOT START, TAKES SEVERAL ATTEMPTS BEFORE THE VEHICLE WILL START!!!

MY VEHICLE HAD A WARNING LIGHT COME ON STATING "FRONT COLLISION AVOIDANCE UNAVAILABLE". IT WOULD SHUT OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL. TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER. THEY SAID THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS DESIGNED. TOOK IT BACK IN SEVERAL WEEKS LATER DEMANDING THEY FIX THE PROBLEM. TOOK A TEST DRIVE WITH THE TECHNICIAN. PROBLEM DID NOT REOCCUR. I GOT OUT. THE TECHNICIAN STARTED THE CAR TO PULL IT IN THE SHOP AND THE WARNING CAME ON. THEY TRACED THE PROBLEM TO A SENSOR. THE SENSOR IS NOT AVAILABLE AND IS ON BACKORDER. IN THE MEAN TIME THE CRUISE DOES NOT OPERATE AND THE FRONT COLLISION AVOIDANCE DOES NOT WORK (WAITING 5 WEEKS NOW). CANNOT DEPEND UPON THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE EVEN THOUGH THEY ADVERTISE IT.
