My car several times while driving randomly had the traction control loss light pop up randomly (dry conditions) several times through a 45 minute drive. Around the 35 minute mark it popped up again, and my car completely stalled out. My VIN is allegedly not apart of one of their recalls but it appears as if it’s the exact same issue many others had and that it should have been included with said recall.

NHTSA Vehicle Safety Complaint – 2018 Nissan Murano Submitted by: [XXX] Vehicle: 2018 Nissan Murano VIN: [XXX] Mileage at time of issue: Approx. 93,500 miles Location: Albuquerque, NM Date of issue onset: [XXX] Summary of the Problem: Shortly after my vehicle was serviced at a Nissan dealership, it began exhibiting serious mechanical and electrical issues. These include: - Transmission jerking and slipping between gears - Uncommanded RPM surging while accelerating - Occasional loss of power, particularly at highway speeds - Dashboard flickering, resetting, and other electrical irregularities - Brake caliper drag and significantly reduced gas mileage Third-Party Diagnosis: A certified independent repair shop reported the following: - Transmission malfunction (needs full replacement) - Dragging brake caliper - Engine overfilled with oil - Erratic RPM behavior Despite these findings, the dealership dismissed all concerns and returned the vehicle unrepaired, with no adequate documentation of the work performed. Additional Concerns: I believe the vehicle was accessed and tampered with while at the dealership. After their service: - My dashboard and door panels were visibly unsealed or repositioned - The vehicle was held for extended periods (multiple weeks) - No paperwork was provided showing any actual mechanical repairs I have before-and-after photographs and text messages confirming this timeline and change in condition. Safety Impact: The transmission failure, RPM spikes, and braking inconsistencies make the vehicle unsafe to drive. These problems pose a significant crash risk, especially in highway traffic or while merging. I’m submitting this report to NHTSA to contribute to any ongoing investigations related to this vehicle make/model and to help prevent further consumer risk. Additional Observation – Abnormal Heat After Driving After driving the vehicle, extreme heat can be felt rising from underneath the dr INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Multiple times I will get a warning that emergency braking is not available for an obstruction. But no obstruction. The FEB system light will come on out of nowhere… literally nothing around! Causing cruise control to disengage and not work again until I stop and restart the car 😡 no actually crash has occurred, but if this can’t be fixed I see it as inevitable! Please advise on what to do. This also I believe is the reason why I’ve had to replace front breaks and rotors TWICE IN 2 years!!!

All of the safety lights came on including ABS and AWD sensor. I took my car to DeMaag GMC Nissan in Battle Creek MI and they said that the ABS Actuator is bad.

ON JAN 21, 2021 I WAS DRIVING OUR MURANO AND WAS IN THE DRIVE THRU LINE AT THE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT PARKING LOT, TO RECEIVE MY COVID-19 VACCINATION. AS THE LINE MOVED, I SLIGHTLY PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL MOVING SLOWLY UP IN THE LINE. WHEN THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME STOPPED I SLID MY FOOT TO THE LEFT TO PRESS ON THE BRAKE. MY FOOT SLID BEHIND THE BRAKE PEDAL AND I WAS UNABLE TO APPLY THE BRAKES. MY RATE OF TRAVEL WAS LESS THAN 2 MPH, I PLACED THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL IN AN ATTEMPT TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO COAST AS I TRIED TO REMOVE MY FOOT FROM BEHIND THE BRAKE PETAL. MOVING MY FOOT TO THE RIGHT IT HIT THE SIDE OF THE GAS PETAL (THE VEHICLE WAS STILL IN NEUTRAL). AS I STRUGGLED TO FREE MY FOOT, I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO DO SO. UNFORTUNATELY, MY VEHICLE BUMPED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO THAT PERSON'S CAR, MY CAR RECEIVES SOME SCRATCHES ON THE BUMPER. MY CONCERN IS IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED WHILE I WAS TRAVELING AT A HIGHER RATE OF SPEED. THIS INCIDENT COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT MORE SERIOUS AND EVEN FATAL. I BELIEVE I DID NOTHING WRONG AND THERE SHOULD BE NO WAY A PERSON'S FOOT CAN SLIDE BEHIND THE BRAKE PEDAL. THEN, THEY MUST STRUGGLE TO FREE THEIR FOOT.

I HAVE A 2018 NISSAN MURANO PLATINUM AWD. I WILL BE DRIVING ON CRUISE CONTROL AND IT WILL TURN OFF AND THE COLLISION LIGHT LIGHTS UP AND CAR WILL COME TO A STOP. THE WARNING SYSTEM GIVES A CLUE AS TO WHAT IS GOING ON, IT SAYS RADAR OBSTRUCTION. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY SPEED, AT RANDOM, WITH OR WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING MANY TIMES A DAY FOR MONTHS, SOMETIMES WITH THE CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST HITTING MY CAR BECAUSE OF THE FAULT OF THE SYSTEM. I TOOK IT TO HGREG DELRAY NISSAN AND THEY BASICALLY BLEW ME OFF AS IF IT WASN'T AN ISSUE. THE SERVICE MANAGER ACTUALLY TOLD ME TO DRIVE IT AND WHEN THE LIGHT COMES ON BRING IT BACK TO HIM. THEY DIDN'T EVEN DO A TEST DRIVE! WELL, I LEFT THAT DEALER SINCE THEY ARE UNWILLING TO HELP OUT WITH WHAT I THINK IS A SEVERE MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY ISSUE. I WILL CONTINUE MY QUEST TO GET THIS FIXED AT ANOTHER NISSAN DEALER. I HAVE HEARD OF A FEW PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE HAVING SOME SUCCESS WHEN THE DEALER HAS REPLACED THE RADAR SENSOR.

Official recalls
2Nov 8, 2019
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2015-2018 Nissan Murano, 2016-2018 Nissan Maxima, and 2017-2019 Nissan Pathfinder and Infiniti QX60 vehicles. These vehicles were previously recalled and unrepaired, or inspected and determined to not need a repair, under recall number 18V-601. In addition, this recall expands the previous population. The Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) actuator pumps may allow brake fluid to leak onto an internal circuit board.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: A brake fluid leak on the circuit board may result in an electrical short, increasing the risk of a fire.
Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ABS actuator, free of charge. Owners will receive a second notice when remedy parts become available, currently expected to be during summer 2020. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Note: If the ABS warning light remains illuminated for more than 10 seconds after engine start up, owners are advised to park the vehicle outdoors away from other vehicles or structures and to not drive the vehicle.
Sep 12, 2019
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Nissan Altima, Armada, Frontier, Kicks, Leaf, Maxima, Murano, NV, NV200, Pathfinder, Rogue, Rogue Sport, Sentra, Titan, Titan Diesel, Versa Note and Versa Sedan vehicles, as well as Infiniti Q50, Q60, QX30 and QX80 vehicles. Additionally included are 2019 Nissan GT-R and Taxi and Infiniti QX50, QX60, Q70, Q70L vehicles. The back-up camera and display settings can be adjusted such that the rear view image is no longer visible and the system will retain that setting the next time the vehicle is placed in reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 111, "Rear Visibility."
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: The lack of an image in the back-up camera display increases the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Nissan will notify owners in phases, having dealers update the back-up camera settings software, free of charge. The recall began November 11, 2019 and all affected VINs should be activated. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669 or INFINITI customer service at 1-800-662-6200.
