MY CAR JUST STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TRAFFIC AND WOULD NOT GO FORWARD OR BACKWARD. I GOT IT TOWED TO GOOD YEAR - MY CAR HAD CATASTROPHIC TRANSMISSION FAILURE. WAS DIAGNOSED AT GOODYEAR AND THEY CALLED NISSAN TO SEE ABOUT THE PARTS AND FOUND OUT THAT IT WAS COVERED BY MANUFACTURE WARRANTY - SO I HAD IT TOWED ON A FLAT BED TRUCK TO NISSAN IN DENVER. GOODYEAR HAD DRAINED THE FLUIDS TO TAKE IT APART DURING DIAGNOSIS AND SENT THE PARTS AND THE CAR ON THE TOW TRUCK TO THE GO NISSAN SHOP. THEY FOUND A NUMBER OF OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR AT THE NISSAN SHOP WHICH THEY SAID WERE NOT COVERED - SUCH AS- CAM SHAFT SENSORS,DRIVE BELTS,HEAD GASKET. I AGREED TO PAY FOR THOSE ITEMS AND TO GET MY TRANSMISSION REPLACED FOR FREE UNDER THE WARRANTY. THEY SAID IT WOULD TAKE THREE TO FIVE DAYS TO GET THE TRANSMISSION FROM THE FACTORY. I GET A CALL TODAY FROM GO NISSAN ON JUNE 19TH ABOUT A WEEK AFTER THEY AGREED TO FIX IT AND THEY NOW SAY THAT THERE SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN SOME PURPLE FLUID IN THE TRANSMISSION AND NOW THEY WONT REPLACE IT OR COVER IT IN ANY WAY. THAT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME BECAUSE IT WAS DELIVERED THERE WITH NO FLUID IN THE TRANSMISSION AT ALL. THEY SAID, YA, WELL.. WE SAW SOME PURPLE SUBSTANCE IN THE CUP WITH THE PARTS THAT WERE DELIVERED AND WE WILL NOT COVER IT BECAUSE OF THAT CONTAMINATION... IM AT MY WITTS END HERE, THEY WANT $4000.00 FOR THE TRANSMISSION AND ANOTHER $2,500.00 FOR THE REST OF THE WORK. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. I FEEL LIKE THEY TOOK ADVANTAGE OF ME AND ARE NOW TRYING TO GET OUT OF THE WARRANTY. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP. *JS

IT SEEMS THAT I HAVE ALL OF THE WELL KNOWN PROBLEMS WITH THE NISSAN MURANO. I GOT THE AIR BAG LIGHT THAT WON'T TURN OFF WHICH TO ME IS A MAJOR SAFETY AND VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE. I HEARD THAT IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT THE AIR BAGS AND SEAT BELTS WON'T WORK. NISSAN NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM ASAP BEFORE SOMEONE OR MULTIPLE PEOPLE LOSE THEIR LIFE BECAUSE OF THEIR LACK OF RESPONSIBILITY. ANOTHER PROBLEM I HAVE IS NONE OF DOOR ACTUATORS WORK INCLUDING THE REAR HATCH DOOR EXCEPT FOR THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR THAT DOOR IS THE ONLY DOOR THAT UNLOCKS AND LOCKS WHICH I ALSO THINK IT'S ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE. I ALSO HAVE THE BAD POWER STEERING RACK WHICH I MENTIONED A LOT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE STEERING HAS SO MUCH PLAY THAT ITS DIFFICULT TO DRIVE I WISH NISSAN WOULD STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND ADMIT THAT THESE SHOULD BE REPAIRED BECAUSE OF THEIR BAD ENGINEERING WITH THESE TRUCKS. *TR

BOUGHT IT USED. DRIVERS SEAT HAD PROBLEMS FROM THE BEGINNING HAD IT IN TO HAVE THEM FIX IT THEN IT STARTED ACTING OUT AGAIN. WOULD RUN THE MOTOR AND MOVE THE SEAT WHEN YOU POWERED OFF. I ASKED THEM 60 DAYS AGO TO LOOK AT IT AGAIN THEY SAID I NEEDED A NEW 2300.00 SEAT. TONIGHT IT JUST BROKE WITH LEFT SIDE FALLING BACK. SO AFTER READING UP I SEE I AM NOT ALONE EVIDENTLY IT HAS WELDS THAT BREAK. SO THEY HAD TO OF KNOWN THERE WAS PROBLEMS THEN TO TRY AND SELL ME A WHOLE NEW SEAT LAST TRIP IN. I'M FURIOUS, BECAUSE I HAVE TO TAKE MY HUSBAND UP FOR RADIATION TREATMENTS 'THIS 'WEEK AND WON'T BE ABLE TO USE THE CAR. RECALL THE PROBLEM NISSAN DO THE RIGHT THING. I LOVE MY MURANO BUT DON'T DISAPPOINT OFF YOUR CUSTOMERS LIKE THIS. IT'S UN-AMERICAN. *JB
