2010 Nissan Murano

THE DOOR LOCKS ON THE MURANOS DO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. FROM READING MESSAGE BOARDS ONLINE IT LOOKS LIKE A COMMON ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED AS IT IS NOT JUST MY VEHICLE. SOMETIMES IT WON'T LOCK AND OTHER TIMES IT WON'T UNLOCK. IT DOESN'T WORK WITH EITHER THE KEYFOB OR FROM THE INSIDE OF THE DOOR. IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK AND UNLOCK THE CAR DOOR. SOMEONE COULD OPEN YOUR CAR DOOR OR NOT BEING ABLE TO UNLOCK IT TO EXIT THE VEHICLE IN AN EMERGENCY. NISSAN WANTS SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS TO FIX THE ISSUE WHEN IT IS SOMETHING THAT IS A COMMON DEFECT ON THEIR END. THEY SHOULD HAVE TO FIX IT.

VEHICLE LOSES POWER, INCONSISTENTLY, WHEN BEGINNING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOPPED POSITION, SUCH AS AT A RED LIGHT, LEADING TO NEAR-REAREND COLLISION, ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING DURING THESE OCCASIONS, AND AFTER PUMPING THE ACCELERATOR IT "KICKS BACK INTO FOWARD GEAR. NOW I AM GETTING CODE P1778 (WAS NOT GETTING THIS CODE FOR A LONG TIME WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS MANIFESTING THIS LOSS OF POWER).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR FLASHED AND REMAINED ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. ALSO, THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED WHILE THE SEAT WAS OCCUPIED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 36524907. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 96,000.

THIS COMPLAINT IS TO REPORT THE INCIDENT THAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY JULY 25 2019 WITH 2010 NISSAN MURANO. TRAVELING AT 45 MILES PER HOUR TRAFFIC WAS STOPPED SUDDENLY IN FRONT OF ME. I SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES, WHICH THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR BUT BARELY ENGAGED. I HAD TO PULL ONTO THE SHOULDER TO AVOID A COLLISION. THIS ISSUE IS PERSISTENT, EVEN AFTER REPLACING THE BRAKE PADS AND MASTER CYLINDER. NHTSA PLEASE HELP WITH THIS DEFECT WITH THE 2010 MURANO. THE 2009 HAS A RECALL, SO SHOULD THE 2010.

2010 NISSAN MURANO, IN MAY I WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH IN TOWN DRIVING AS I APPROACHED A STREET LIGHT I APPLIED THE BRAKES. THE PEDAL WAS SOFT AND WENT TO THE FLOOR. STANDING HARD ON THE BREAKS I WAS ABLE TO STOP, NARROWLY AVOIDING A REAR END COLLISION. BRAKE FLUID WAS AT A SAFE LEVEL. CHANGED BRAKE PADS. I STILL HAVE SOFT BRAKE PEDAL. I HAVE TO DRIVE EXTRA CAREFUL AND ENSURE I GIVE MYSELF FOUR TIMES NORMAL STOPPING DISTANCE. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING TO DETERMINE POSSIBLE CAUSE. I SEE MANY ISSUES THAT NISSAN MURANOS HAVE HAD WITH BRAKE ISSUES. BRAKES ARE A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE JEOPARDIZING PUBLIC SAFETY. RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT THE NHTSA DEMAND AN INSPECTION AND CORRECTION RECALL FOR THIS KNOWN, WIDESPREAD ISSUE.

THE FIRST TIME MY BRAKES WENT OUT I ALMOST WENT TO THE FRONT OF A BUILDING. I TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND THEY DROVE MY CAR AND SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. A FEW WEEKS LATER MY BRAKES WENT OUT WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AGAIN. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC AND THEY DECIDED THE MASTER CYLINDER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. A FEW WEEKS LATER I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AGAIN & IT WOULD NOT STOP. THE BRAKES WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I TOOK MY CAR BACK TO THE MECHANIC AND THEY CHANGED OUT THE NEW MASTER CYLINDER WITH A ANOTHER NISSAN MASTER CYLINDER. ALL WAS FINE. A FEW WEEKS LATER AND MY BRAKES STOPPED WORKING AGAIN.
