general problems of the 2007 Nissan Murano - part 1

Passenger air bag sensor. This is blinking on my dash. I looked it up in the manual. It stated that the airbag may not deploy in an accident. I also got a recall notice for this same problem and called the dealer. They said that my VIN was not included in the recall even though I had the same make, model and year and the same problem. I had a problem with this when the vehicle was new, they fixed it. They wanted two hundred dollars to look at it. Why is this safety problem in my vehicle not included?.

Please recall electrical system, started out the doors not locking and trunk wont open then inside lights would not come on. I put my steering wheel down lower and when I did the car would not start. The inside lights come on when the car wont start then when I move steering wheel back up the lights go back off and the car will start again. The all wheel drive lock button will not work and the all wheel drive kicks in and out on it's own while driving the vehicle. While my children and I were on our way to town the vehicle started to lose power and the steering wheel was hard to handle then the all wheel drive locked in and out and then power was back. It was scary and it almost caused me to crash and people to crash into me from sudden speed reduction. The mechanics I take my vehicles to told me I'll have to take it to a Nissan dealership to get the electrical system taken care of or replaced.

I see the air bag light on and won't turn off for about almost a week and a half after I purchase it a week later this year and it lightly shakes when I put on drive ,don't know if that will be another issue . Hopefully I can have your company gide me in the right direction to solve this problem .

Hello, I would like to report a problem. Didnt really see anything about transmission on the choices listed above. Well I got this car used from someone. Didnt really noticed the transmission problem until I was driving it for a while on the freeway. The transmission is just so bad . It is stuck on 3rd gear all the way. At high speeds. So imagine, the engine is whining so bad. The car basically wants to give up now. Still starts, revers, goes foward with no problem. Shifting is the problem. Also, ive checked the transmission fluid. Its still at a perfect level. Yes, it has roughly 129,000 miles on it. But really? this car should be lasting longer. Please. I really dont want to pay out of pocket for a whole new transmission. Theres got to be a way or something you guys could do to help me and my family.

My complaint is that my car windows rolled down in the middle of teh night, next day car was flooded,was March 2021 Nissan said they had no idea why,,then decemeber the same think happened,,it snowed here so I didnt go out for 2 days then found my windows down again,,no where was I near my remote and now Nissan is saying they say they dont t hink it was my remote that rolle dmy windows down,,they dont kow why,,ive been googling this issue and many Nissan owners have teh same issue,,but I was not near my remote to do this.

Transmission went only had the SUV for 4 months.

While operating my vehicle on 6/27/2020 after 1hr of driving the car steering wheel would not turn almost causing an accident. I had to stop the car put in it park, turn the car off and then back on. When I tried to turn the car on and it hesitated then turn over. I then proceeded to turn the corner and the check engine light came on. This is the 2nd time this has happened and when I took car to car shop. The code was p0340, cam shaft position. I replace the cam shaft after this happened the first time. Now this has happened again, almost causing me to have an accident.

My family has owned a 2007 Nissan Murano for nearly 8 years. In the last year, my wife has experienced extreme trauma as she has had the vehicle completely die on her while in the middle of freeways, highways, and residential roads. We have had the vehicle taken in and inspected by multiple Nissan dealerships and each visit has only resulted in their recommendation of routine maintenance being suggested, such as transmission fluid exchange, brake repair, or battery replacement. Our Murano has recently decided to repeat these same issues after over a year of normal function. My wife was driving the vehicle normally and all of a sudden she began to lose power until the car came to a stop and the function of the vehicle stopped due to what appeared to be an electrical problem. After assessing the issue, I attempted to jump start the vehicle with jumper cables, which allowed the Murano to start, but once it was independently idling, it would again lose power after an attempt to drive the vehicle. I am heavily concerned for the welfare of my wife and daughter as they drive this car daily. The Nissan dealerships that I typically rely on for these critical repairs have been no help and I am at a loss for why this has happened with such a long time frame between issues. I hope that Nissan will issue a recall on this problem and rectify any prior repairs that have been suggested as a resolution to the issue that may very well have not resolved the true issue at hand. I am in dire need of answers as to why a well maintained vehicle would be fine one minute and then completely inoperable the next. The vehicle has had many components replaced and maintained to prolong the life of the vehicle and with 180k miles has the potential to continue for many more. I don't want to pour money into this issue that Nissan needs to address, as I am not the only one having dealt with this!.

I'm concerned about the vehicle's safety due to the fact that the engines stops while driving on the road. No warning lights or anything indicating a problem.

My Murano suddenly shuts off w/o warning if I am stopped at a traffic light etc. All the lights come on by themselves (interior lights/exterior lights/headlamps) and the only way to shut them off is to remove the battery terminals from their posts. This has happened multiple times and the car is parked and the engine is off. There is a high-pitched ringing sound whenever the front drivers door is unlocked. While I'm driving and the fob is in my pocket, an alarm begins to sound and alerts that the key-fob is not inside the vehicle; I must stop, shut off the engine, remove the actual key from the fob and insert it into the ignition and restart the vehicle (battery in the key-fob has been changed several times and the problem still exists). The vehicle battery has also been replaced.

We have had trouble multiple times with the rear hatch not opening electrically (the only way to open it). We have had troubles with the door locks either not locking or just some locking at this moment neither key bob will lock or unlock them.

Takata recall: my car keeps stalling!! the whole left side driver side electrical doesn't work signal,headlights, brake lights my car is shaking on the highway.

Been having major issues with the power of the vehicle. It's like shaking and not accelerating like it should be.

Airbag light lit constantly, other indicator lights, brake, voltage, intermmitently go on then off. Power windows open by themselves when the car is parked and locked.

I had to replace my altenator 3 times. I bought the car 2 years ago at 90,000 miles. When it first went out, I bought one from autozone, then 4 months later is went out. I had a warranty thru autozone on the parts so the part was replaced but I had to cover the labor cost. 2 months later the altenator replace it again but I wanted labor cost covererd this time. They agreed to cover the part and labor. There must be an electrical problem with these cars. I ve read other owners of the same car having the same issue. If Nissan doesn't fix this for free, I will never buy another of their cars because I can't believe multiple times. I had two different mechanic so it not the person, it's the car, I believe so. The other problem I've had it that the air duck intake hose keeps disconnecting, it will cause my car to miss file and run very ruff, like poor performance. It can make the car shut off while driving or at a stop sign.

Takata recall got a vehicle from a small business and car no good they repulled the vehicle 2 times.

This car has an electrical problem. The dash board lighted components flicker back and forth from dim to bright when the headlights are turned on. The headlights when turning on go from really dim to normal when turning on. I have noticed this at night while driving. When going to buckle my son in his car seat the seat belts thin the rear lock and do not release. Unless all the slack it it is returned to normal. Which sometimes takes 3 to 4 times to be able to buckle him into his seat without the seat belt locking.

Rear crossmember has rusted connecting control arms. Causing SUV to slide through curves and extreme camber in rear tires. Wearing out new tires and almost causing me to wreck.

In the past 2 weeks while driving my car, it randomly, completely shuts off. I have no electrical anything. My car will start right back up once I stop and turn the key. This happens several times anytime I try driving (just in the past couple of weeks) on the highway 70-80 mph or just down the street 25-40 mph and has also happened twice when I am making a turn! it is scary when I lose the ability to steer my vehicle.

The charger warning and brake warning lamp will immediately came. The engine slowed down and the car could only go 10 mph. This happened while turning onto a busy street. Drove the car 2 mph back home.

Car cuts off while driving. Sometimes it wouldn't move. It would start again then cut off again. No radio, lights or anything. Just dead. It has happened more than once. The latest incident was today 03/11/2018 7:30 pm.

2007 Nissan Murano 1) vehicle began to drive in a sideways motion,on main city street: turned out that majority of frame rusted out. 2) driver and passenger windows go down while vehicle engine is turned off.

Overheating shutting off very dangerous recall is needed it has the same problem as the recall.

The car was parked and it did not start at all. . Happened twice in one month. Had to be towed, took it to the shop and they didnot find anything wrong because the car was working ok. And this also can happened when I was driving my car. The car stop working no lights no brakes nothing was working. Took it to the shop and the same thing. The car was working again. Also I received a letter from Nissan saying that there is a problem with a part that doesnot let you fill up your gas tank and they said that they have extended the warranty for this part but they cannot replaced it until you have this problem.

While I was driving I stopped at a restaurant and when I tried to roll my windows down, the power locks, windows, alarm, seat adjuster, brake pedal/accelerator, rear hatch stopped working. No power to the main window switch panel. Just stopped working one day.

While driving the power locks, windows, seat adjuster, alarm and lift gate stopped working. No power to the main window/lock switch on the drivers side.

Nissan Murano 2007: faulty fuel level sensor, fuel level sensor harness is open or shorted, fuel level sensor circuit poor electrical connection. Engine light on (service engine soon warning light), incorrect fuel level reading. Also, weak engine mounts, right side engine mount and lower front between engine and radiator. Please advise if there is a recall. Thank you.

The power door locks on the front passenger door and trunk will not open when the weather is warm. The Nissan dealer says the actuators are probably to blame and it is a common problem. The repair is about $600 per lock. There is no key hole to use to gain access from the outside. The only key access is the driver's door. This creates a safety problem, especially for trunk access by elderly folk, who have to climb into the trunk area to open the trunk.

Car loses its electric power. . . Shuts down in the middle of driving. The seat belts in the back do not work. The driver and passenger seats shift.

My vehicle hatch back will not open unless I use the emergency lock which is located inside the vehicle. This concerns me because if there was an emergency where I would need to open the rear hatch from the outside I wouldnt be able to.

Warning air bag light does not shut off. Keeps blinking power windows go down by itself half way down, intermittently. Opportunity for theft and rain damage. .

Driving on the interstate. Abs lights, brake lights, and odometer stopped working. Smelled burning from under the hood. Took it to a Nissan dealership who determined that the fuse box was faulty, the abs module went out as well as the ecm. Dealership said that my air bags were not functioning since the incident, and that the vehicle was unsafe to drive. When searching to find out what happened, found numerous incidents of Nissan vehicles having the same exact issue.

Rear hatch stopped working. Since it can only be opened from the inside (with the panel removed) this is a safety issue. There is no handle on this year model that will work without electrical assistance. When the open button is pushed (either from inside the car or on the key fob) there is no sound indicating that the rear hatch is being contacted at all. We have tried replacing the fuse and a control module but neither of those have corrected the issue. There absolutely should be a manual latch on the rear hatch so that it can be opened without the assistance of the electrical system.

1. This is safety hazard and my biggest concern driver seat, left bracket broke. I was told by Nissan dealer this is common problem but not covered by my platinum exended warranty which I purchased at team Nissan in oxnard, CA I was also told the entire seat needs to be replaced to fix this problem. I have seen online that many people have had the same part break. I would hate to think about how this seat might break completely loose in a crash causing the driver to be propelked out the front winshield & possibly killed. Nissan needs to recall & fix this part! 2. Passanger front window goes up & down randomly. . I have to keep the windows locked so it doesnt go down making my car volnerable for theft because more than a few times I came out in the morning to find it down. Also, when trying to put it up, once it closes it then rolls right back down. 3. Electric door locks sometimes dont all lock with key fob. Usually driver doir & sometimes other doors dont lock when using key fob. I have to check all four doors every time I lock the car.

Car stalled 3 times, once in the middle of a busy intersection and twice on the freeway almost getting into several car accidents do to intake coming apart. Took the car to dealers to get fixed found out the car was a recall, wasn't happy about that. The car salesmen did not tell me it was recalled. Otherwise I would have reconsidered getting this vehicle.
