August 18, 2018 bout 9:50 pm, after passing threw new albany on my way back to memphis after leaving starkville, ms. When it felt like my Nissan Murano was losing power on highway 78 with one vehicle in left lane bout car length behind and another bout three car length behind me in the right lane. I pulled off on right side of the road bout 100 yards from exit to glenfield and oxford, ms. The vehicle would only move about 5 or 7 miles hour allowing me to make it to glenfield/ oxford turnoff then just stopped would not move any farther. Cutting on the hazardous blinkers was draining the battery power. A lady stopped and gave me a bus off but battery died shortly after she left. Being on the other side of new albany I could only text allowing me to text my son who was on his way from starkville after he got off work at 10:30 pm. When my son arrived we charged the battery for 10 to 15 minutes giving the Murano enough power to make mile or mile and a half back to new albany where lost all power again. Walmart was close by where purchased a new battery allowing me to make 60 or less miles back to memphis. The battery and brake lights remained on I cut off all unnecessary power. Monday morning I plan to take to Nissan dealer after learning off recall for this same problem.
Battery dies every 4 to 6 mo. Have to keep buying new batteries because Nissan says they can not find a problem. First time with original oem battery (2 years old) on vacation and the battery died in the hotel paring lot on a Sunday out of town. Would not jump start. No dealer open so bought a $150 battery from well known parts store. Now every 4 to 6 mo battery dies the same way, will not jump start because deed cell in battery this is the 5th battery now in 2 years. Nissan says they can not find any thing and the parts store says its not their batteries. I am left with a car I can not take on trips as it will die on us. Nissan says they can not find any problems and a new battery is replaced but happens again. Parts store runs test on battery and on car they show intermittent spikes but it does not show up on there elect. Tool. Help I am stuck and no I wants to help.
