I DRIVE A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. ONE DAY I WAS MAKING A 90 DEGREE RIGHT TURN WHEN I FELT THE DRIVER SEAT SNAP. AFTERWARD I COULD LEFT UP THE SEAT WITH MY HAND WHERE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN SECURED TO THE FLOOR. THE SEAT NOW LEANS TO THE RIGHT WHENEVER I MAKE A RIGHT TURN. AFTER READING ABOUT THIS ON SOME MESSAGE BOARDS I'VE HEARD THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR THE NISSAN MURANO. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE THAT IS EXPENSIVE TO FIX, AROUND 1000 DOLLARS. *TR

THE CVT TRANSMISSION FAILED ON MY NISSAN MURANO IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC IN OKLAHOMA CITY. MY WIFE AND 5 YR OLD SON IN THE VEHICLE, RESULTING IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. SHE WAS ALMOST RUN OVER. AFTER LOOKING INTO THIS PROBLEM I HAVE FOUND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO THEM. I THINK NISSAN HAS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR THAT THEY ARE NOT ADDRESSING. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN INJURY OR DEATH AND NISSAN REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS TICKING TIME BOMB IN THEIR MURANOS. SEEMS THE PROBLEM IS EXCLUSIVE TO THE CVT TRANSMISSION. I'M LOOKING AT A $6400 REPAIR BILL BECAUSE IT IS 5000 MILES OUT OF WARRANTY. WHEN THIS OCCURS THE VEHICLE SIMPLY STOPS MOVING AND MUST BE TOWED. ALSO TOLD CANNOT FIX CVT, MUST BE REPLACED WITH BRAND NEW CVT, $6000. *TR

I'VE BEEN HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE POWER DRIVER'S SEAT IN MY '05 NISSAN MURANO. IT IS LOOSE AND SHIFTS SIDE TO SIDE WHEN I TURN CORNERS. I CONTACTED MY DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THE LIFTER LINK SLIDE ASSEMBLY WAS BROKEN AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED AT THE TUNE OF $600. THERE IS A TSB (TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN) OUT ON THIS EXACT PROBLEM. SINCE MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY, NISSAN NORTH AMERICA HAS REFUSED TO FIX IT AND THEREFORE, OWN UP TO THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I WOULD HATE TO SEE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN DURING A CRASH. PLEASE RECALL THIS ISSUE BEFORE ANYONE LOOSE THEIR LIVES. *TR
