general problems of the 2006 Nissan Murano

Broken rear k frame/sub frame. Vehicle veered into oncoming traffic and left the roadway after fishtailing in the rain. Towed to repair shop. Inspection of the rear suspension shows multiple premature catastrophic failures of the rear k frame and or sub frame structure. Stabilization bar is completely broken from it's mount. Rear k frame/sub frame is prematurely corroded and completely broken in half.

Normal driving and the seat broke and has been for several years causing instability and oscillation. Recently my steering wheel will not align, brought it to a mechanic that informed me the rear sub-frame is cracked on both sides causing the tires to malign, creating un-even wear on the back tires and a hazard to drive.

I just purchased my 2006 Nissan Murano still making payments and I noticed when I am driving it feels like the back is riding on ice. I drove it on the freeway and was so scared of the way the car felt like I had no control of the steering it felt as if it was goingvto fishtail. I did take it back to the car lot I bought it from to have someone take a look at it and they gave me the number of a mechanic. The mechanic asked if they were paying for the diagnostic and I thought thats what the warranty was for but was told the warranty only covers the tranny and engine. So they said they would get ahold of the owner and ask him if they can pay for it that was 4 or 5 days ago and still no word back. I plan on taking the car to get it checked out if I can find someone to diagnose it free I am on disability and still making payments on the car so have very little money left after all my bills.

I purchased a vehicle from a dealership located at 4985 memorial drive stone mountain GA. 30083 and I was told the vehicle needed two front rotors,passenger side axle,and brakes so I drove to auto zone to purchase the parts so the dealership could fix the problem once I arrived back at the shop and got on the highway I noticed the car started shaking,losing control of the wheel because he didn't fix the axle,smoking,smelling like something was burning and like gas so I called the dealership and told them what I was experiencing and was told to take it to a shop once I took it to a shop I was told the car was no good and I needed to take it back to the dealership once I took it there I was told I couldn't get my money back and I didn't have the car longer then 24hrs not even longer then 6 hours and I really feel like I been played out my money and want it back and I need help on actions to take about the situation because I don't have my money and I returned the car.

Tl the contact owns a 2006 Nissan Murano. While driving 25 mph and making turns, the steering wheel felt loose and made an abnormal clicking noise. Additionally, the check engine and abs indicators illuminated, the horn failed to work, the driver's side window failed to move up or down, and the rear hatch failed to open. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer (taj auto mall, 154 nazareth pike, bethlehem, PA 18020-9456) where it was diagnosed that the suspension needed to be replaced. The vehicle 's suspension was repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 136,000.

Upon starting cold engine a loud tapping or rattling sound heard coming from front of car. Sound increases when accelerating until reaching 40 to 45 mph - then it almost disappears. Once engine is warm sound is barely noticeable. It also takes a lot of strength to turn the steering wheel left, when backing out of the driveway into the street, or when turning left into a driveway or a parking space. It feels like there is no power steering. Slight left turns are normal as are all right turns. Vehicle is going into dealer Tuesday which is their first opening. I will update this once it is determined what is causing the problem /problems.

The contact owns a 2006 Nissan Murano. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic for routine service when the contact was informed that the power steering hose was leaking. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the issue. The approximate failure mileage was 48000.

The high pressure power steering hose and sensor assembly basically blew out of this lovingly used Nissan Murano. This caused a power steering "whine" when turning and made turning difficult and unsafe. Further due to the nature of the blow out vice slow break it happened quickly and immediately impacted the amount of power steering fluid available to the system. Naturally, as there was no extended warranty, Nissan would not cover cost nor consider a reduction in repair/replacement fees. This is a big-time historical problem with this particular make and year of this Nissan. Local dealerships say that they replace about two of these per week on average, and the internet is filled with similar stories of repairs costing in excess of $600. This repair cost me a total of $650 dollars and a real lack of confidence in the quality of the Nissan product and customer service.

Power steering pressure hose leaking, myst be replaced.

Power steering problems with Nissan the Murano. There are loads of complaints for this problem and Nissan has done nothing to resolve the problems which could result in killing someone. I was traveling at a high rate of speed when the problem occurred.

I have a 2006 Nissan Murano. In December of 2010 I noticed the power steering reservoir was as low, and refilled it. Three days later a noticed a leak under the car where I parked, and the power steering reservoir was empty again. Since then I have found out the high pressure hose to the power steering needs to be replaced. The car has only 52,000 miles on it. I did some investigation on the internet and found this a common problem for this car. I believe this should be a recall issue for Nissan.

2006 Nissan Murano high pressure power steering line/hose - major leak, Nissan dealership recommends not driving the vehicle, due to potential loss of steering power, but the part is back ordered, not available for 3 weeks to 2 months. Seems to be a manufacturer issue, yet no recall.

Replace high pressure power steering line I looked online and this seems to be a highly problem will all Nissan Murano I know more than 6 people had this problem with different year Murano . Not covered under regular warranty.

Nissan Murano 2006, I purchased this car new. I have had several recalls in the past. I took my SUV to the dealer in Jan 2010 for a power steering leak. The service guy told me the hose had to be repaired, so I got it repaired. A month later I started having the same problem in Feb 2010. Now Nissan service is blaming on the power steering rack, and it needs to be changed for $2000. 00. I went on line to see how many complaints for the same issue, and found others complained about the same issue as mine. I think it's very unjust for Nissan to charge their customers to the extreme for their defects. Please help! I am unemployed for 12 months, and I need my vehicle.

The contact owns a 2006 Nissan Murano. The contact experienced issues with the steering in his vehicle. The steering wheel continued to lock when the vehicle was started. The contact had to exert great force in order to turn the steering wheel. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and they stated that in order to prevent the steering wheel from locking, both the front and rear wheels needed to be parallel to each other and the steering wheel needed to be in a horizontal position. The VIN was not accepted by the system. The current and failure mileages were less than 42,000. Updated 09/11/09 the consumer stated the steering wheel locked when the tires were not perfectly aligned. Updated 09/15/09.
