1 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 05/17/2025

Drivers seat is not sitting right almost seems like it came unhinged. Driving on a short distance trip I noticed that every time I needed to turn and it the road was windy I could smell fuel and it seems like I was loosing gas as I was driving like it was punchard or spilling some how. . I'm no mechanic but as a pregnant woman I was absolutely nauseous from going only an hour away. Also it seemed like I would periodically loose power and at one point actually had to pull over and let the vehicle air out and cool down. Seems like the was a situation with the coolant as well had to replace the cap and it looks as though that had been a issue with the previous owner as well.

3 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 01/25/2019

Seat support is broken on the drivers side causing the driver my son, to shift to the left while driving the car. A dealer sold this used car as is and covered a wooden block that supported the seat with cloth to disguise the problem. After looking at this site I found over 700 complaints. The seat is compromised and it's a manufacturers safety defect. If an accident were to occur the driver could be thrown into the dash or worst because of a already broken driver seat support. Why should consumers not be made aware of this safety concern and the manufacture required to do a proper fix? is the seat belt designed to hold the passenger and the seat in place during an accident?.

Takata recall I am not sure why my VIN is not recall as yet. The car accelerates on occasion. I replave all coils now every 2 months because thats how long they are lasting Nissan weston florida has not been able to figure out why the car keeps burning coils out. This feels so dangerous to me on the hoghway I do not know if it is the transmission or computer its very scary.

9 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 03/01/2013

My 2006 Nissan Murano was purchased used March 2013. Since then, I have put over $4,000 worth of repairs into it and I am still having problems. The latest issue is the car having no power when pushing on the accelerator and it will surge when you finally get it to go. I've replaced fuel filter, catalytic converters, transfer case just to name a few of the repairs. I am in the repair shop at least 2x/month! now I read where there are many others having the same problem and Nissan ignoring the complaints! I now have a car I am making a huge car payment on that I cannot drive! plus I do not have the money to replace the transmission! I work in hospice and I drive to see patients every day and now I have no vehicle!!!! so it is now affecting not only my personal life but my work environment!!!!.

10 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 07/02/2012

After coming to a complete stop, vehicle will intermittently not accelerate when stepping on the gas. Period/duration of non-acceleration is not predictable, nor can you depend on being able to get out of the way of an oncoming vehicle should you be in the process of making a left-hand turn. This is a severe safety hazard.

11 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 05/13/2012

Vehicle has problems with accelation between 40mph and over. Was told it that the cvt tranmission was bad and had transmission replace and now just after picking up vehicle and driving home, vehicle is still having the same problem.

12 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 04/04/2007

Complained to Nissan dealer and was told nothing wrong. Complained at a later date and was told complaints have been made but no recall and if I wanted to pay for a complete gas system I could which would cost approx. $1000. 00. When I get gas I have to get it when I am going home so I can shower due to gas spraying on me while pumping gas. Almost every time I pump gas it stops like it is full and gas spews back. Constantly have to move gas hose around and the gas nozzle to try to get gas. I have to have an extra set of clothes in my car because the gas smell makes me sick. One time I was sick all day vomiting because of this. This is dangerous and should be a recall.
