2007 Nissan Murano

MY NISSAN STARTS TO JERK FROM FIRST GEAR OR WHEN I SLOW DOWN AND START TO ACCELERATE IT MAKES A HARD JERK LIKE DOWNSHIFTING ON A MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND RELEASING CLUTCH TOO FAST. I RESEARCH AND THERE ARE A LOT OF PUBLIC FORUMS ON THIS ISSUE ON SENSORS GOING BAD TO CVT FLUID CHANGE TO TRANSMISSION ISSUES. I TOOK TO MY MECHANIC AND THEY TOOK IT APART COMPLETELY SAID HAD TO REPLACE THE TORQUE CONVERTER. SO THIS WILL BE A $1000 REPAIR AND I HOPE THIS WILL RESOLVE THE ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT PROPERLY ACCELERATE WHEN DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO REV VERY HIGHLY BEFORE THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY ACCELERATED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER (NELSON NISSAN, 800 W. QUEENS ST, BROKEN ARROW, OK) WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 129,000.

THE SEAT BRACKET BROKE. REALLY A SEAT BRACKET THAT BREAKS FROM FATIGUE OF ENTERING AND LEAVING THE VEHICLE?!? SAFETY CONCERN SUN VISOR NO LONGER HOLDS ITS POSITION DUE TO PLASTIC THAT WEARS OUT. SAFETY ISSUE. TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT JUST OVER 100,000 MILES. REPORTS ALL OVER THE WEB ABOUT THIS. SO COMMON, AND SO EXPENSIVE. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. NISSAN HAS DONE NOTHING TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES THAT ARE SO COMMON WITH ALL OF THESE MODELS. IT IS NOT JUST ME, THERE IS REPORT AFTER REPORT ON THE WEB. ALL THE SAME ISSUES.

TAKATA RECALL" MY NISSAN MURANO 2007 TRANS STARTED JUMPING IN AND OUT OF GEAR NEVER HAD TROUBLE BEFORE I CALLED NISSAN THEY TOLD ME IT WAS MY PROBLEM CAR HAS NEVER BEEN RECALLED ON TRANS I SAID OK THEN SELL ME A REBUILD KIT FOR MY CAR THEY SAID NO YOU GOT TO BUY A REBUILD ONE WONT SELL ME ONE KIT FOR IT I GOT 4 NISSAN VEHICLE GUSS THIS IS THE LAST ONE I WILL BUY IT QUIT PULLING ON A MAJOR HYWAY

MY CAR WAS RUNNING PERFECTLY FINE UNTIL LAST NIGHT WHEN IT STOPPED ACCELERATION AS I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM A FRIENDS HOUSE. IT SORT OF "STALLED" BUT WAS STILL ON AND RUNNING JUST WOULDN'T ACCELERATE. NEVER HAD A SINGLE GLITCH WITH MY TRANSMISSION BEFORE. I ONLY HAVE 111K MILES ON IT. I'M REGULAR WITH MY MAINTENANCES. JUST STARTED HAPPENING RIGHT OUT OF THE BLUE. I HAD A MAXIMAL BEFORE THIS AND THE TRANSMISSION WENT ON IT BUT THAT MADE JERKING MOVEMENTS BEFORE IT DIED. THERE WAS NOTHING TO INDICATE MY TRANSMISSION WAS ABOUT TO DIE OR WAS FAILING! WHEN I LOOK ONLINE THERE IS CONSTANT COMPLAINTS ABOUT YOURS TRANSMISSIONS FAILING ON PEOPLE RIGHT AFTER THEY HIT THE 100K MARK. THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME KIND OF RECALL ON YOUR TRANSMISSIONS CAUSE THIS IS MAKING ME NEVER WANT TO BUY ANOTHER NISSAN EVER AGAIN AND TO WARN ANYONE WHO IS INTERESTED IN BUYING YOUR CARS!

MY 2007 NISSAN MURANO SUDDENLY BEGIN ACTING LIKE IT WANTED TO SHUT OF WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. I WOULD PRESS THE GAS PEDAL ABOUT 3/4 DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND THERE WOULD BE A FEW SECOND LAG BEFORE THE RPM WOULD RISE AND THEN SUDDENLY JERK FORWARD. I COULDN'T GET MY SPEED ABOVE 30 MPH WITHOUT THE VEHICLE ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE GEARS ON IT OWN. THEN ONE DAY AS I'M GOING TO THE GROCERY STORE I CAME TO A STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I SLOWLY ACCELERATED AND SUDDENLY MY CAR JERKED ABRUPTLY AND CAME TO A HALT. AT THIS POINT THE VEHICLE WAS INOPERABLE. THE MOST EMBARRASSING PART IS THAT I WAS 1/4 OF THE WAY IN THE INTERSECTION AND I WAS HOLDING UP THE TRAFFIC ALL THREE WAYS. A GOOD POLICE OFFICER STOPPED BEHIND ME AND CALLED A TOWING COMPANY. I HAD TO PAY OVER $100 TO GET MY CAR TOWED. ON TOP OF THAT I HAD TO TOW IT TO THE TRANSMISSION PLACE TO HAVE IT CHECKED SINCE THE CAR WOULD START AND REV, BUT NOT MOVE FORWARD. THE TRANSMISSION SHOP SAID THE CVT BELT PREMATURELY BROKE. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AMONG VEHICLES WITH CVT TRANSMISSION, ESPECIALLY THE NISSAN MURANO'S. MY CAR HAS A LITTLE OVER 100,000 MILES ON IT. WITH THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME ISSUE I'M SURPRISED NISSAN HAS NOT INITIATED A RECALL. THIS VEHICLE COULD HAVE FAILED ON THE HIGHWAY AND IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.
