2010 Nissan Murano

I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL NORMALLY AND FELT THE BRAKING ACTION START, AGAIN NORMALLY, BUT WHEN I APPLIED MORE PRESSURE, THE PEDAL WENT ALMOST TO THE FLOOR BEFORE THE BRAKES STOPPED THE VEHICLE. THE MECHANIC INDICATED I NEED NEW BRAKE PADS AND MASTER CYLINDER. AFTER THE REPAIRS THE BRAKES STILL DID NOT WORK. THEY FOUND A PROBLEM WITH THE 2009 MURANOS BUT WILL DO NOTHING FOR THE 2010 WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS. I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY SAID TOO BAD. CASE NUMBER 36007466

WITHOUT WARNING, WHILE IN MOTION THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. AFTER ANALYSIS, THE MECHANIC THOUGHT THAT IT MIGHT BE THE MASTER CYLINDER. IT WAS NOT, AND HE INDICATED THAT IT WAS THE ABS ACTUATOR OR AN ABS BRAKING ISSUE. I TOOK IT TO THE NISSAN DEALER AND THEY SAID THERE WERE NO BRAKE RECALLS AND THAT ANY SERVICE OR INVESTIGATION WOULD BE AT MY EXPENSE. THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 71,600 MILES ON IT AND THE BRAKING SYSTEM CERTAINLY SHOULD NOT BE COMPROMISED AT THIS POINT. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE, THAT HAS BEEN HAUNTING NISSAN IN THE PAST, IS MY OPINION. I FEEL THAT NISSAN NEEDS TO TAKE CARE OF SERIOUSNESS OF THIS SAFETY.

(TPMS) TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM. I PURCHASED A 2010 NISSAN MURANO FROM A PRIVATE PARTY LIVING IN ILLINOIS IN APRIL 2018. AT SOME TIME IN NOVEMBER THE TIRE PRESSURE LAMP HAD LIT. I HAVE WEEKLY AIRED THE TIRES AT SEVERAL DIFFERENT SERVICE STATIONS TRYING TO GET THE LAMP ON THE DASH TO GO OUT. TO THIS DAY THE LAMP REMAINS ON AND I HAVE NO WAY TO TURN IT OFF.

TOOK SUV TO DEALERSHIP FOR OIL CHANGE - TOLD I COULD NOT DRIVE CAR BECAUSE CVT TRANSMISSION WAS GOING TO FAIL AND SEALS WERE LEAKING. SUV ONLY SERVICED AT DEALER AND ONLY HAS 64,535 MILES. NISSAN WILL REPLACE TRANSMISSION, BUT SAID I MUST PAY $4,000 FOR SEALS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED. RESEARCHED ON WEB AND SEE THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE WITH CVT TRANSMISSION FAILURES WITH NISSAN. SUV SHOWED NO SYMPTOMS AND WAS DRIVING FINE - DEALER SAID IT WOULD FAIL WITHOUT MUCH WARNING RESULTING IN LOSS OF ACCELERATION AND WOULD NOT LET ME DRIVE SUV. I HAD TO RENT CAR AND APPROVE WORK ON SUV.

THE ABS BRAKE WARNING LIGHT WENT ON 2 DAYS AGO. THE BRAKES SEEMED TO WORK FINE FOR STOPPING, BUT I DID FEEL SOME RESISTANCE WITH ACCELERATION. MY VEHICLE HAS 77,000 MILES. DROPPED IT OFF WITH THE DEALER TODAY. THEY JUST PHONED STATING THAT THE BRAKE ACTUATOR MOTOR FAILED TO THE TUNE OF $3400 AND IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. AFTER A LITTLE ONLINE INVESTIGATION, QUICKLY DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM NISSAN HAD IN THE 2009 MURANO FOR WHICH THEY DID A VOLUNTARY RECALL. THE REP AT ORANGE COAST NISSAN SAID SHE PHONED NISSAN CORPORATE TO SEE IF THEY WOULD HELP AND SHE SAID THEY REFUSED. AT THE VERY LEAST, THEY SHOULD PROVIDE THE PART FOR FREE.

I WAS PULLING IN TO MY PARKING SPACE AT WORK (IN MOTION) WHEN I PRESSED THE BRAKE, BUT IT WENT TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP. I TRIED THE BRAKE AGAIN, SAME THING. I WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER AWAY FROM POLES AND OTHER CARS, SO NOTHING WAS DAMAGED. I HAD IT TOWED TO AN AUTO REPAIR SHOP WHERE THEY FOUND THE BRAKES WERE FINE. FLUKE? NO. THOUSANDS OF SIMILAR ISSUES HAVE BEEN REPORTED, BUT NOTHING'S BEING DONE. THIS HAPPENED WITH A 2010 NISSAN MURANO.
