2011 Nissan Murano

THE CVT WENT BAD IN THE VEHICLE AND NISSAN NEVER FIXED WHAT WAS REPORTED IN THE PAST WITH 2012S PEOPLE WITH 2013 TO CURRENT ARE ALL STILL HAVING CVT TRANSMISSIONS FAIL AND NISSAN IS NOT RECALLING OR FIXING THE ISSUE. WELL DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY THE VEHICLE STARTED KNOCKING AND LOST COMPLETE POWER AND LOOKED UNDER THE CAR AND HAD OIL SEEPING FROM IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO REVERSE, THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD WITHOUT WARNING. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED TO PREVENT THE VEHICLE FROM CRASHING INTO A PARKED VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO ANDERSON NISSAN (6555 E STATE ST, ROCKFORD, IL 61108), WHERE THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS PREVIOUSLY REPLACED TWICE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 92,000.

AROUND 100,000 MILES WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN TRAVELING AN INCLINE OR AFTER STOPPING AND RESTARTING AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, EVEN WHILE GAS PEDAL WAS TO THE FLOOR. WHEN THE CAR FINALLY DECIDED TO MOVE IT WOULD SURGE. ALSO WHILE IDLING STATIONARY AND SHUTTING THE CAR OFF, IT FAILED TO RESTART. HEAD LIGHTS STARTED BLINKING, A CLICKING NOISE COULD BE HEARD COMING FROM ENGINE. THE CAR WOULD HAVE TO BE JUMPED OFF. BATTERY CHECKED AND IS NOT THE ISSUE.

MY CVT TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO HAVE A SEAL LEAK AT 140,000 MILES CAUSING A LOUD SQUEAL WHILE THE TRANSMISSION FLUID BUILT UP PRESSURE. THIS CAR WAS WELL MAINTAINED. IT'S UNFORTUNATE THAT NISSAN DOESN'T PROVIDE REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THEIR TRANSMISSIONS. IT'S A SEALED UNIT SO YOU HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION FOR $3500 TO $4800. ONLY GOT $2K ON TRADE IN FOR A NEW VEHICLE. I HOPE NISSAN RECALLS THE TRANSMISSION SO OTHERS WON'T LOSE MONEY ON THIS COSTLY REPAIR.

COINCIDENTALLY WE JUST PAID OFF OUR VEHICLE A FEW MONTHS AGO. OUR 2011 NISSAN MURANO HAS 103, 000 MILES. ABOUT A MONTH AGO MY WIFE MENTIONED THAT THE CAR WAS HESITATING WHEN PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL TO PROCEED FORWARD FROM A STOPPED POSITION. ( THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD AT INTERSECTIONS AND ANY STOPPED POSITIONS TO PROCEED FORWARD). THE ENGINE WOULD JUST CUT OUT AND THEN AFTER A FEW SECONDS WOULD PICK BACK UP IN RPMS. I THOUGHT IT WAS A FUEL FILTER PROBLEM SO WE SENT IT TO OUR MECHANIC. HE CAME BACK TO US AND SAID ITS THE CVT TRANSMISSION AND IT COULD COST ANYWHERE FROM $3500 - $5000. SOMETHING WE DID NOT WANT HEAR WITH A VEHICLE WITH JUST A HUNDRED THOUSAND MILES ON IT. AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH WE SEE THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE WITH NISSAN CVT. I REALLY NEED SOME ASSISTANCE ON HOW TO GO ABOUT CONTACTING NISSAN TO SEE IF THEY WILL WARRANT THIS PROBLEM.

2011 NISSAN MURANO, 85000 MILES, ALL MAINTENANCE DONE ON TIME. DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT LOW SPEEDS STARTED TO HEAR A CLUNKING NOISE. THE NEXT DAY I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HWY TAKING MY CAR INTO THE SHOP WHEN IT STARTED JUMPING RPMS AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE ALMOST CAUSING ME TO GET KILLED WHILE TRYING TO PULL OF THE ROAD. AFTER LETTING THE CAR SIT I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT AT 30MPH TO THE CLOSEST CAR DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A FAILING TRANSMISSION. I STILL OWE ON THE CAR AND AM BEYOND UPSET THAT AFTER CALLING NISSAN THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING . NOW MY CAR SITS TILL I FIND A WAY TO COME UP WITH THE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS I HAVE TO PAY TO GET MY CAR BACK ON THE ROAD. NISSAN SHOULD EXTEND THE WARRANTY ON THE 2011 JUST LIKE THEY DID ON THE PREVIOUS YEARS.

I NOTICED MY NISSAN MURANO LOSING ACCELERATION WHEN TAKING OFF. WHEN IT FINALLY CATCHES UP IT RIDES FINE. THAT IS SO DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY LIVING IN THE CITY WITH FREEWAYS AND TRAFFIC! ALSO MY AIR IS NOT WORKING. I TOOK IT TO A DEALER, AIR COMPRESSOR WAS FINE, THEY RECHARGED THE SYSTEM WITH FREON AND IT STILL DIDN'T WORK. I NEED SOME KIND OF RELAY SWITCH FOR $500. I FEEL LIKE I'M PAYING FOR A LEMON AT 85,000 MILES!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND FAILED TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY. THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO STAR NISSAN (40-20 172ND ST, FLUSHING, NY) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS FAULTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,000.

CVT TRANSMISSION STARTED MAKING NOISES AT 90K ON DAUGHTER S 2011 NISSAN MURANO. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL NISSAN IS SCAMMING EVERYONE WITH ALL THESE 5K SHOP REPAIR BILLS. NISSAN YA CAN GO TO HELL AND WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER ONE. I WILL ALSO GO TRADE MY GTR. I WOULD DRIVE CHEVY CRUZ OR CIVIC BEFORE I BUY ANOTHER NISSAN. OH THIS WAS OUR 29TH NISSAN BETWEEN MY WIFE,KIDS AND I
