IllustrationBREAKS LOSE PRESSURE AFTER HITTING BUMPS OR WHEN DRIVING IN RAIN. IT HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES ALREADY. TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. IT HAPPENS FROM TIME TO TIME BUT VERY DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING. THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR MY CAR AND NOTHING THE DEALER CAN FIX BECAUSE THEY SAY NOTHING IS WRONG.

THE BRAKES ON MY 2010 NISSAN MURANO FAILED TO WORK WHEN I WAS COMING TO A STOP AT A RED LIGHT ON A HIGHWAY. THE BRAKES LOST PRESSURE AND THE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND WAS SOFT. ACCORDING TO MY RESEARCH, THE NHTSA IS ALREADY INVESTIGATING THE 2009 NISSAN MURANO FOR THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. THE ABS ANTI-LOCK BRAKE IS DEFECTIVE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY TO REPLACE THIS VERY EXPENSIVE PART AS NISSAN NEEDS TO REPAIR IT AS IT IS A DEFECTIVE PART.
SOFT BRAKE PEDAL AFTER A 90 DEGREE INTERSECTION TURN. PRESSURE LOSS IN BRAKE PEDAL AFTER THAT. NOW IT REQUIRES TO PRESS THE BRAKES A LOT MORE TO HAVE SAME BRAKING EFFECT AS BEFORE.
BRAKE PEDAL LOOSES PRESSURE AFTER BRAKING ON LOW FRICTION (WET PAVEMENT), WILL BRAKE AFTER THE PEDAL HAS BEEN PRESSED ALL THE WAY. WILL CORRECT ITSELF AFTER TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE AND DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL MULTIPLE TIMES. OCURRS MULTIPLE TIMES, EVERY TIME THE TRACTION SPINS ONE OF THE FRONT WHEELS.
AT RANDOM TIMES, AFTER BRAKING OVER BUMPS OR IMPERFECTIONS IN THE ROAD SURFACES, AT ANY SPEED, THE BRAKE SYSTEM LOSES ALL PRESSURE MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP. WHEN DRIVING IT IN THE SNOW, AFTER THE ABS SYSTEM IS TRIGGERED, THE BRAKE SYSTEM LOSES PRESSURE, WHICH IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. AT ONE MOMENT, I WAS DRIVING VERY S…

AT RANDOM TIMES, AFTER BRAKING OVER BUMPS OR IMPERFECTIONS IN THE ROAD SURFACES, AT ANY SPEED, THE BRAKE SYSTEM LOSES ALL PRESSURE MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP. WHEN DRIVING IT IN THE SNOW, AFTER THE ABS SYSTEM IS TRIGGERED, THE BRAKE SYSTEM LOSES PRESSURE, WHICH IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. AT ONE MOMENT, I WAS DRIVING VERY SLOWLY DOWN A SNOWY HILL, WHEN THE BRAKE SYSTEM SUDDENLY LOST PRESSURE AND THE ABS ONLY ENGAGED AFTER THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. AT THAT TIME, IT WAS TOO LATE AND I SLID THROUGH AN INTERSECTION AND ENDED UP IN A DITCH (WITH MY WIFE AND INFANT SON IN THE CAR). LUCKILY, EVERYONE ELSE WAS STOPPED ON EITHER SIDE OF THE INTERSECTION, AND NO DAMAGE WAS DONE TO OUR CAR OR ANYONE ELSE'S PROPERTY. SO FAR, THERE IS NO KNOWN FIX FOR THIS ISSUE, AND IT SEEMS THERE IS NO RESEARCH BEING DONE BY NISSAN. THEY (NISSAN) NEEDS TO FIX THIS BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR KILLED DUE TO A FAULTY BRAKE/ABS SYSTEM. WE LOVE OUR MURANO, BUT WE WILL BE TRADING IT IN ON SOMETHING ELSE IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE.
