2014 Nissan Murano

MY CVT TRANSMISSION IS SHAKING, SHUDDERING,VIBRATING.. I BROUGHT TO WALLACE NISSAN WITH 103K ON IT AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL..THERE IS CURRENTLY A BIG RECALL ON NISSAN CVT TRANSMISSIONS AND THEY EXTENDED TO 10YRS 120K. I CONTACTED NIASSAN CASE # 42026948 AND THEY SAY ITS NOT PART OF RECALL..THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON OVER A MONTH

WHILE DRIVING ALONG I 17 SOUTH OF FLAGSTAFF, AZ, WE HEARD A LOUD SOUND, LIKE A GUN SHOT. WE PULLED OVER TO FIND NO TIRE HAD BLOWN, CHECKED THE REST OF THE CAR, DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING. WE CONTINUED TO DRIVE AND STARTED HEARING RATTLING AND SHAKING NEAR THE ROOF. WE PULLED OVER AGAIN ONLY TO FIND OUR SUNROOF WAS COMPLETELY SHATTERED. LUCKILY, WE HAD THE RETRACTABLE SHADE CLOSED, SO NEITHER OF US WAS HIT WITH GLASS, BUT CARS BEHIND US COULD HAVE BEEN. ABOUT 2/3 OF THE SUNROOF WAS ALREADY GONE. WE FINISHED OUR 90-MILE DRIVE HOME IN 100 DEGREES WITH THE TOP/SHADE OPEN SO AS NOT TO DO ANY DAMAGE TO THE SHADE ITSELF. DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH WITH A SEMI TRUCK NEXT TO US WHEN THE EXPLOSION OCCURRED, COULD HAVE BEEN DEADLY. FORTUNATELY, MY HUSBAND KEPT CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AS WE SOMEHOW GOT OFF THE HIGHWAY TO SAFETY.

DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR IS WILL NOT STAY IN ANY SET POSITION. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE ON ANY DAY THAT THE SUN OUT, PARTICULARLY DRIVING INTO THE SUN. THIS IS A CRITICAL SAFE DRIVING COMPONENT OF ANY VEHICLE. VERY EXPENSIVE PART TO PURCHASE, FOR WHAT IT IS, BECAUSE OF THE HIGH DEMAND SINCE SO MANY HAVE FAILED. THE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP, AS IT WILL JUST DROP IN FRONT OF YOUR LINE OF VISION, AND IT WILL NOT STAY TOWARDS WINDSHIELD TO BLOCK THE BLINDING SUN. IT LOOKS LIKE THESE COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN PLACED IN VARIOUS AREAS ON HERE.

AUG 2019 AT 61K MILES CVT TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. FOUGHT WITH NISSAN TO REPAIR OF WHICH THEY REPLACED. NOW, AUG 2020 AT 69K, CAR FEELS LIKE IT GOES OVER 'RUMBLE STRIPS' WHEN COMING OUT OF A TIGHT TURN (I.E. BACKING OUT OF DRIVEWAY OR PARKING SPOT). NISSAN NORTH CANNOT FIND OR FIX ISSUE. NO IDEA WHAT TO DO BUT FEEL SAFETY CAN BE COMPROMISED DUE TO VEHICLE HISTORY. INDEPENDENT MECHANIC DID STATE I HAVE A TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAK. HE IS FURTHER INVESTIGATING ISSUE BUT NO REPAIR HAS BEEN MADE

CVT TRANSMISSION HAS BAD HESITATION AND HEAVY BANG WHEN SHIFTING INTO DRIVE. THEY WANT $5,000 TO REPLACE THE WHOLE UNIT! I HAVE BEEN GETTING AROUND THE ISSUE BY SHIFTING INTO NEUTRAL THEN GIVING THE ENGINE A KICK AND SLIDING IT INTO DRIVE NICE AND SMOOTH. AIN'T GOING TO FLY FOR RESALE. JUST NEEDED TO REPORT THIS ISSUE WITH YOU. THANK YOU.
