1 Steering problem

Failure Date: 12/13/2025

My father is a mechanic when I bought this car the first thing we noticed is it had a problem with actually driving so we tried fixing a couple things to get it to drive no matter what we do the car lags I cannot step on the pedal hard enough in some cases I have almost been hit I have two kids this car is absolutely a danger on the road. As I was driving my children to school the wheel became very hard to steer which I ended up in a ditch after 10 minutes I was able to start the car up again and drive out of the ditch. As I make tight turns the lights inside the car turn on the seatbelts in the back do not work my kids sit back there it’s a problem they both still have to be in car seats.

Failure Date: 03/15/2023

On 3/15/2023 while in traffic (0730) the traction light began to fash & the vehicle began to fishtail. Fortunately I was abe to exit the expressway without an additional incident. Had the vehicle towed to fred martin Nissan in akron, OH this is the dealer that has maintained my vehicle since 2010 & the only service department that has repaired my vehicle. I was advised the rear subframe was broken! 3/3/2023 I had the vehicle aligned at fred martin at which time I advised the vehicle pulled to the left while breaking & a noise intermittently was coming from the back of the vehicle. This incident could have cost me or another their life or serious injury! this is a huge safety risk & Nissan needs to address the issue immediately!.

3 Steering problem

Failure Date: 03/06/2018

Known problem with Nissan 2010 Murano cvt and transfer case failure. Cvt / transfer case failed at 96,000 and they know about his constant problem and do nothing. Trying to deal with Nissan has been a disaster and no one will talk to me about paying for this known problem. Both sway bars broke because of the vibration and shaking from the cv shaft.

4 Steering problem

Failure Date: 06/03/2013

The radio volume knob has an electrical defect. If you touch or use the volume knob the volume will automatically increase unexpectedly. This is a problem when driving. It will turn up so loud and unexpectedly that I have all most crashed my car. At this point the stereo is inoperable. Also was told the steering column has a crack. I bought this car brand new. That feels like a defective part and not something that the owner should have to replace, but should be the responsibility of the car maker.
