MY FRIEND'S DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING MY CAR ON A SIDE STREET AND SUDDENLY WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL THE CAR NEARLY GOING INTO A DITCH. SHE SAID THE CAR WAS WAS SWERVING UNCONTROLLABLY. SHE DID WHAT SHE COULD TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE, AND NEARLY SPUN IN A CIRCLE, AND WENT INTO A DITCH. PULLED HERSELF OUT OF THE DITCH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEEMED TO BE COMPLETELY UNALIGNED. THE WHEEL WAS TURNED LEFT,ALMOST UPSIDE DOWN, WHEN SHE WAS SLOWLY TRYING TO DRIVE STRAIGHT, AND SHE HEARD SOMETHING DRAGGING UNDER THE CAR. SHE SLOWLY PULLED INTO A DRIVEWAY. THE REAR TIRE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE WAS COMPLETELY BENT OUTWARDS.

2010 NISSAN MURANO, (PURCH 11/30/2009) I HAVE A PASSENGER AIR BAG SAFETY CONCERN! (CASE # 37896824) THE RED AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT IS FLASHING! (WHILE DRIVING AT ALL SPEEDS AND WHILE IDLING) & THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT (YELLOW), REMAINS ON - INDICATES FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG IS OFF! TOOK MURANO TO NISSAN SERVICE CENTER, TECH DID DIAGNOSTIC TEST - GOT A CODE B1018 OCS IS MALFUNCTIONING. TECH CLEARED CODE, TO TURN OFF THE RED FLASHING AIRBAG LIGHT & SAID IF RED LIGHT STARTS FLASHING AGAIN, COME BACK TO SERVICE DEPT. 1ST STEP TO FIX WOULD BE REPLACE FRONT PSSNGR SEAT ACU ASSEMBLY. (VERBALLY WAS TOLD THEY MAY HAVE TO REPLACE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION). RED LIGHT FLASHING AGAIN THE NEXT DAY, DROVE IT FOR 2 WEEKS TO SEE IF THAT WOULD RECALIBRATE RED FLASHING LIGHT, WAS STILL FLASHING AFTER 2 WKS, RETURNED TO NISSAN SERVICE DEPT ON 10/29/19. SAID NEED TO REPLACE THE FRONT PASSENGER CUSHION, (THE OCS FOR AIR BAG IS IN CUSHION) & POSSIBLY AN ACU! I SEE, MURANO HAS HAD SEVERAL PASSENGER AIR BAG RECALLS: THE 2009 MURANO: RECALL # 08V521000 - SAFETY ISSUE - THE OCS CONTROL UNIT LOCATED IN FONT PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION, COULD CAUSE INTERRUPTION OF SIGNAL BETWEEN OCS & ACU - SUPPRESSED AIR BAG COULD FAIL TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE PROTECTION IN A CRASH. RECALL # 08V066000 - SAFETY ISSUE - DUE TO INCORRECT SOFTWARE PROGRAMMING- THE ACU MAY CAUSE PASSENGER AIR BAG TO NOT OPERATE AS DESIGNED IF BATTERY BECOMES SIGNIFICANTLY DISCHARGED - RESULTING IN PASSENGER AIR BAG NOT TO OPERATE AS DESIGNED. 2013 - 2015 MURANO RECALL - SAFETY ISSUE - FRONT PSSNGR OCS COMPONENT MAY INCORRECTLY CLASSIFY ADULT AS A CHILD OR THAT SEAT IS EMPTY DESPITE OCCUPIED - FRONT PSSNGR AIR BAG MAY BE TURNED OFF & NOT DEPLOY IN A CRASH! * I SEE A LOT OF SIMILARITIES IN THE PAST RECALL DESCRIPTIONS WITH WHAT IS OCCURRING TO MY 2010 NISSAN MURANO PASSENGER SEAT. THANK YOU!

WHILE DRIVING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS, 35-50 MPH, DRY, GOOD, SMOOTH, STRAIGHT ROAD CONDITIONS, I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE PEDAL WENT ALMOST TO THE FLOOR BEFORE THE BRAKES STARTED BEING APPLIED. I HAVE SINCE LEARNED OF A RECALL FOR PRIOR MODEL YEARS (18V916000) AND SUBSEQUENT MODEL YEARS OF MY VEHICLE DUE TO ABS PROBLEMS. PART OF THE FIX IS TO REPLACE THE DOT3 FACTORY-SPECIFIED BRAKE FLUID SPECIFIED FOR MY VEHICLE WITH DOT4 BRAKE FLUID DUE TO CORROSION OF BRAKE SYSTEM COMPONENTS. I HAVE DETERMINED THAT IT IS IN FACT AN ABS PROBLEM, AS I CAN NOW SKID THE TIRES DURING HEAVY BRAKING, AND THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE PUMP DOES NOT ACTIVATE. THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELS ABOUT 75 PERCENT OF THE DISTANCE TO THE FLOOR BEFORE ANY BRAKING OF THE VEHICLE OCCURS.

MY VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY LOSES POWER WHEN GOING UPHILL OR ACCELERATING. FOR EXAMPLE, TWO DAYS AGO I WAS DRIVING UP STEEP HILLS IN THE TN MOUNTAINS AT LESS THAN 20 MPH. WHILE ACCELERATING THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. I SMASHED THE ACCELERATOR TO THE FLOOR AND NOTHING HAPPENED. I STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND PUT IT INTO PARK, AND THEN BACK TO DRIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO ACCELERATE AS NORMAL. SOMETIMES THIS SAME ISSUE HAPPENS WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP.

DASHBOARD IS SPLITTING IN 6 PLACES ACROSS THE ENTIRE SURFACE AND IS VERY STICKY AND PLIABLE WITH A RESIDUE LEACHING OUT FROM THE MATERIAL WHICH IS WET AND SHINNY. EVERYTHING STICKS AND IT PUTS A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD OBSTRUCTING YOUR VISION AT TIMES. VEHICLE HAS 105,738 MILES AND IS GARAGED. MY RESEARCH HAS FOUND THAT NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM WHEN NISSAN MURANOS REACH 10 YEARS OLD AND HAVE DONE NOTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. TOYOTA HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND ISSUED A RECALL TO REPLACE THE DASH.

WHEN I AM DRIVING AND PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE, THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES SOFT AND DOWN TO THE FLOORBOARD. I HAVE TO PUMP THE BRAKE IN ORDER FOR THE CAR TO STOP. THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN ALL OF THE TIME, BUT IT IS HAPPENING AT LEAST ONCE A DAY.IT HAS HAPPENED WHEN I AM DRIVING ON A CITY STREET OR WHEN I AM ON THE FREEWAY.I HAVE HAD TO SWERVE AND DRIVE OFF THE ROAD IN ORDER TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO TWO DEALERSHIPS, THEY CHECK THE CAR AND CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND SAY NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE BRAKES. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT THE 2009 NISSAN MURANO HAS HAD A RECALL (NHTSA CAMPAIGN 18V916000) WITH THE IDENTICAL SYMPTOMS MY VEHICLES IS EXHIBITING. THE PROBLEM IS THE ABS ACTUATOR. MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED IN 2009 WITH THE DEFAULT PARTS, YET IT WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. THIS FAULTY BRAKE SYSTEM CAN BE FATAL IF NOT ADDRESSED. THE COST OF THE REPAIRS IS IN EXCESS OF $2,000 AND NISSAN SHOULD PAY FOR THE REPAIR FOR THE FAULTY ABS ACTUATOR. I NOW HAVE A CAR PARKED IN THE GARAGE BECAUSE I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR AND HAVE TO WAIT TO SAVE UP TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED.

EXPERIENCED SOFT BRAKE PEDALS AFTER THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEMS ACTIVATED FROM HITTING POTHOLES, MANHOLES OR ROUGH ROAD SURFACES. I WAS ABOUT THREE CAR-LENGTHS FROM THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME ON ROUTE 22 (MAJOR HIGHWAY), THAT WAS STOPPED AT THE RED LIGHT; THEREFORE, PUT ON MY BRAKES TO STOP. HOWEVER, WHEN I PUT ON MY BRAKES, MY BRAKE PEDAL HAD TO BE PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR FOR THE VEHICLE TO COME TO A STOP. THIS NOW HAPPENS ON A CONTINUAL BASIS, WHEREBY I HAVE TO ALLOW MORE ROOM BETWEEN VEHICLES TO ALLOW STOPPAGE. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE 2009 MODEL YEAR HAS THE SAME PROBLEM.

AFTER AN ABS ACTIVATION EVENT, DURING SUBSEQUENT BRAKE PEDAL PRESSES, THERE IS NO BRAKING EFFECT FOR THE FIRST ~80% OF BRAKE PEDAL TRAVEL. ALL BRAKING OCCURS IN THE FINAL 20% OF PEDAL TRAVEL DISTANCE. THIS HAS BEEN OBSERVED NUMEROUS TIMES OVER APPROXIMATELY THE LAST 12 MONTHS. STEPS: - VEHICLE IS IN MOTION (SPEED USUALLY GREATER THAN 35MPH) - BRAKE IS DEPRESSED - ABS ENGAGES SUCCESSFULLY (DUE TO SOME ROAD CONDITION CAUSING VEHICLE TO SLIDE), BRAKE PEDAL FEEL IS NORMAL - BRAKE PEDAL IS RELEASED - BRAKE PEDAL IS PRESSED AGAIN, WITHOUT ABS ACTIVATION. OBSERVED PROBLEM: FOR THE FIRST 80% OF BRAKE PEDAL TRAVEL DISTANCE, THERE IS NO BRAKING EFFECT. - PEDAL FEEL MAY RETURN TO NORMAL WITHIN A FEW SECONDS. IN SOME CASES, PEDAL FEEL HAS TAKEN UP TO 30 MINUTES TO RETURN TO NORMAL. IN SEVERAL CASES, THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER AND RE-STARTED IN AN ATTEMPT TO GET BRAKE PEDAL FEEL TO RETURN TO NORMAL (THIS USUALLY SEEMED TO WORK). INITIALLY THIS WAS DIAGNOSED BY A THIRD-PARTY MECHANIC, WHO RECOMMENDED THAT THE VEHICLE BE TAKEN TO A NISSAN-CERTIFIED SERVICE CENTER FOR REPAIR. IT WAS THIS MECHANIC AND THE CUSTOMER'S OPINION THAT THIS IS THE SAME DEFECT THAT 2009 MURANOS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR (NHTSA CAMPAIGN 18V916000), DUE TO SIMILARITY IN MODEL YEAR, PARTS AND SYMPTOMS. NISSAN SERVICE CENTER REPRODUCED THE PROBLEM AND INDICATED THE ABS ACTUATOR AS THE SUSPECT ROOT CAUSE. HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN CUSTOMER CARE WITH THIS INFORMATION - THEY STATED THAT SINCE THE VEHICLE IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR IT, NISSAN WILL OFFER NO GOODWILL OR ASSISTANCE FOR THIS ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THEY WILL INVESTIGATE, BUT THAT I SHOULD NOT EXPECT ANY RESPONSE OR FEEDBACK. ABS ACTUATOR PART NUMBER: 47660 1SW0A

ALL POWER TO THE VEHICLE WAS LOST WHILE PARKED IN GARAGE. ONCE CAR WAS JUMPED, ALL WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND STAYED ON. DROVE TO THE SHOP TO GET NEW BATERRY. SPEEDOMETER WAS NOT WORKING, MAP ON GPS WAS NOT WORKING. MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS ACTUATOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF 3,500.00. THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AS I HAVE NO WAY TO COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIR. THIS APPARENTLY HAS BEEN AN ISSUE WITH 2009 AND AGAIN 2011 THEY 2017 VEHICLES. WHY WAS 2010 SKIPPED IN THE RECALL. I HAVE A CAR IN THE GARAGE THAT IS UNSAFE AND WHILE ALL OTHER YEARS HAVE BEEN RECALLED, THE 2010 OWNERS ARE DRIVING UNSAFE VEHICLES WHICH COULD LEAD TO DISASTROUS ACCIDENTS. WHY IS NHTSA NOT LOOKING INTO THIS? WILL IT TAKE CRASHES TO GET SOMEONE'S ATTENTION?

I TOOK MY 2010 NISSAN MURANO LE AWD TO MAUS NISSAN OF NEW PORT RICHEY, FL BECAUSE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT WAS FLASHING. THIS WELL MAINTAINED, GARAGE KEPT VEHICLE WITH 74500 MILES, 95% OF SERVICE/MAINTENANCE DONE BY NISSAN, WAS IN PRISTINE CONDITION, SINGLE DRIVER,NO ACCIDENTS, AND RARELY EVEN A PASSENGER. WHEN I RETURNED 3 DAYS LATER, I WAS TOLD THE LIGHT WAS STILL FLASHING EVEN THOUGH THEY REPLACED THE "K88201AAOE SENSOR SIDE AIRBAG CENTER". I WAS BILLED $1840.81 FOR THIS REPAIR THAT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I WAS THEN TOLD THE DIAGNOSTICS SAID THEY NEEDED TO REPLACE THE "SEAT OCCUPANT SENSOR" FOR AN ADDITIONAL $4210.81 BECAUSE THE PART WAS INTEGRATED INTO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT SO THE WHOLE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT HAD TO BE REPLACED! I WAS THEN ADVISED TO CALL NISSAN'S CORPORATE CUSTOMER CARE AT 1 800 NISSAN1. MY MAUS SERVICE CONSULTANT SAID SHE HAD SEEN CUSTOMERS WITH "130000 MILES AND A BLOWN TRANSMISSION" AND CUSTOMER CARE HAD COVERED THE REPAIR. SHE ALSO SAID THAT THEY WOULD LIKELY REIMBURSE MY $1840.81 SINCE THE REPAIR DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I CALLED CUSTOMER CARE AND DETAILED MY SITUATION. A WEEK LATER THEY CALLED TO TELL ME THAT MY REQUEST HAD BEEN DENIED. I REACHED OUT TO MAUS NISSAN VIA THEIR FACEBOOK AND WEB PAGES AS WELL AS A YELP AND GOOGLE REVIEWS. ATTACHED ARE COPIES OF MY INVOICE, ADDITIONAL REPAIR ESTIMATE AND THE ONLY NON AUTOMATED REPLY FROM WITH MAUS NISSAN.

THIS SYMPTOM OCCURS AT ALL SPEEDS. WHEN BRAKES ARE DEPRESSED, THE PEDAL GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. BRAKES DO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY CAUSING INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCE. THIS ISSUE IS A HAZARD FOR OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD AROUND THE VEHICLE. THE SYMPTOMS THE VEHICLE IS EXHIBITING ARE IDENTICAL TO 2009 MURANO'S THAT HAVE BRAKE MODULES AND ECU'S RECALLED. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM USE PENDING REPLACEMENTS OF THE SAME COMPONENTS RECALLED ON THE PRIOR YEAR MURANO'S. THE COST OF THE REPAIRS IS IN EXCESS OF $2000 AND SHOULD BE AT THE EXPENSE OF NISSAN FOR INSTALLING FAULTY COMPONENTS. THIS FAULTY BRAKE SYSTEM CAN BE FATAL IF NOT ADDRESSED, ALL MURANO'S WITH FAULTY BRAKE COMPONENTS NEED TO BE RECALLED BEFORE IT COSTS THE LIVES OF INNOCENT PARTIES. THE EXPENSE OF THE REPAIR OUT OF POCKET MAY DISCOURAGE SOME OWNERS FROM TAKING APPROPRIATE MEASURES, INCREASING THE RISK. TROUBLE SHOOTING OTHER COMPONENTS TO AVOID THE COSTLY PARTS REQUIRED TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM IS A BURDENSOME EXPENSE FOR THE OWNERS AND INCREASES THE SAFETY HAZARDS OF MURANO'S ON THE ROAD.

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.
