2007 Nissan Murano

FOLLOWING VEHICLE BEING IN FOR COOLANT SYSTEM REPAIR, I ENTERED VEHICLE DRIVER SIDE AND FOUND THE SEAT MOVED FORWARD TO THE EXTREME, I MOVED IT BACK AND SAT DOWN, RIGHT AWAY I NOTICED THE SEAT DID NOT FEEL STABLE, WAS UNSURE IF THIS WAS RELATED TO THE RECENT WORK, BEGAN DRIVING VEHICLE, WENT A SHORT DISTANCE, DRIVER SEAT WAS LISTING TO THE DRIVER SIDE OF VEHICLE, AND WAS UNSTABLE. I RETURNED IMMEDIATELY TO REPAIR SHOP, OF COURSE LATE IN DAY AND CLOSING TIME. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD LOOK AT NEXT DAY, LOW AND BEHOLD, THE BAD NEWS BEGINS ARRIVING ABOUT MIDMORNING- THE SEAT TRACK IS BROKEN AND WILL COST A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF MONEY TO REPAIR. DURING MY DRIVE BACK TO REPAIR SHOP NEXT DAY, THE SEAT FEELS VERY UNSTABLE AND WOULD NOT RECOMMEND DRIVING THIS VEHICLE ANY LENGTH OF TIME; CREATES A SIGNIFICANT FEELING THAT CONTROL OF VEHICLE IS NOT SECURE, DUE TO SEAT INSTABILITY. AREN'T SEAT SUPPOSE TO LAST THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE, WHAT IS ALL THAT MONEY PAYING FOR?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SHIFTED INDEPENDENTLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNDETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. UPDATED 02/02/16*LJ *TR

I'VE ONLY BEEN DRIVING MY 2007 NISSAN MURANO CAR THAT I RECENTLY PURCHASED USED FOR 3 WEEKS. I WAS DRIVING ON THE ROAD AND SUDDENLY MY CAR STARTED JERKING, SHAKING, SMOKING FROM UNDER THE HOOD THEN IT ABRUPTLY STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC ON A BUSY ROAD. THE CAR SHUT DOWN AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN. I CALLED THE POLICE, THEY BLOCKED THE LANE I WAS IN AND CALLED A LOCAL TOW TRUCK SERVICE THAT I HAD TO PAY FOR OUT OF POCKET BECAUSE IT WAS AN EMERGENCY DANGEROUS SITUATION TO GET IT OFF THE ROAD AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND THE POLICE COULD NOT CHANCE TO WAIT FOR MY INSURANCE COMPANY TO SEND A TOW SERVICE.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2007 NISSAN MURANO WHICH I PURCHASED ON 5/5/2015. I FELT COMFORTABLE MOVING FORWARD WITH THE PURCHASE BASED ON THE CARFAX WHICH STATED NO ACCIDENT / DAMAGE REPORTED , NO TOTAL LOSS, NO STRUCTURAL DAMAGE, NO AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. AFTER, GOING TO A LOCAL GAS STATION AND PURCHASING THE REQUIRED OCTANE. I PULLED OFF INTO TRAFFIC SAFELY AND THE CAR WOULD NOT BUDGE. TERRIFIED THAT I WOULD GET HIT BY ON COMING TRAFFIC, I JUMPED INTO ACTION AND PUT THE CAR INTO REVERSE. I LET OUT HUGE SIGH OF RELIEF BECAUSE, I WAS ABLE TO MOVE IN REVERSE. I CAUGHT MY BREATH AND NOTICED THAT THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON. I TOOK MY CAR TOO A LOCAL AUTOZONE AND THE CODES THAT I RECEIVED ARE ALL TRANSMISSION CODES. AFTER BEING INSTRUCTED TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED BY A AUTHORIZED NISSAN DEALER, IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT I NEED A NEW CVT TRANSMISSION, TRANSFER CASE RESEALED. BASED ON NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE CVT TRANSMISSION AND THE SAFETY ISSUES. I DEEM MY CAR UNSAFE AND NISSAN SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE TO MAKE ANY AND ALL VEHICLES MANUFACTURED.

AS I WAS DRIVING IN TRAFFIC (APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH), I APPLIED THE BRAKES AT THE STOPLIGHT AND THERE WAS A SUDDEN LOUD SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE. WHEN I APPLIED THE GAS, THERE WAS NO POWER, BUT THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO REV UP. WITH CARS FLYING BY ME, THIS WAS TERRIFYING FOR ME AND MY GRANDDAUGHTERS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY MISDIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM, TWICE. OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS, MY MURANO BEGAN TO RANDOMLY SKIP/HESITATE WITH STANDARD RPM AND EXTREMELY HIGH RPM. THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP HAD MY CAR FOR OVER A MONTH, SAYING THEY HAD REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION. THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THE "PROBLEM " IS THERE, STILL THERE. ALSO THERE IS NO GUARANTEE/WARRANTY ON WARRANTED WORK. I NOW HAVE NOTHING.AND SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR THAT IT WILL FAIL IN TRAFFIC.
