The front radar obstruction light on my 1025 Nissan Murano has occasionally come off and on in bad weather (to be expected) and under normal driving conditions. I have had to have it are-aligned previously. Recently however, the light started coming on and off when I was stopped or in park. It would clear when I started driving. Eventually it would start coming on and stay on for very long stretches of time. I brought the car in to be looked at and was told I needed a new sensor for approximately $1500. I got no other explanation. I have seen hundreds, if not thousands of complaints about these sensors going bad. I even found a recall campaign (ntb19-033/a) for the exact problem. I was told this is a service campaign and it seemed as if it was at the dealerships discretion to follow the campaign. I am not sure if the manufactured date was even looked at as stated in the campaign. I have had numerous occasions where I have been using cruise control on the highway and all of a sudden the car starts slowing down without my immediate knowledge. There is no way to bypass this sensor in order to use cruise control either. I feel that this issue is a safety concern and the part should be recalled.
Unavailable front radar obstruction light comes on and stays on after driving. Problem occurs every time I drive more than a short distance. Light is never on when I start the car.
The abs light comes on while driving and car stalls or immediately shuts down. I took the vehicle to Nissan and a diagnostic test was done. They said I needed to have my crank shaft positioning sensor changed; I paid and had it replaced and still I am experiencing the same problem. I took the vehicle back to kings Nissan at coney island brooklyn 2 weeks ago and it's still there and they can't figure out what's going on. Now I am being told they'll have to take the car apart to figure what's the problem and that'll cost me about a thousand dollars for labor, not inclusive of any parts that may need to be replaced. My problem here is that Nissan cannot determine the issue and is having me pay for parts while they change parts by assuming what they issue might be, since they are unable to determine the real issue. My biggest regret is purchasing a Nissan vehicle. The vehicle is barely 30,000 miles and it's costing me time and money.
Purchased the Murano 5/15/2018. Almost immediately noticed a problem with braking/acceleration. The problem occurs when I start to apply my brakes to slow down the engine seems to rev up causing the vehicle to accelerate forward. This requires a need for me to slam on the brakes in order to get the vehicle to stop and get it back under control. The strange thing is that this occurs only about 1/3 of the time. However I feel this creates a major safety hazard to me and others around me on the highway. I have taken the vehicle to my local Nissan dealer on on 2 occasions to have them check this out. Unfortunately they say nothing is wrong but the mechanic says he knows what I am talking about because he has experienced it before with other vehicles. He also says there are no recalls for that issue.
Vehicle hestiates - it jerks and shudders when accelerating normaly around 20 mph, and also around 40 mph. It feels like the transmission isn't shifting properly and causing abnormal vibration and instability while trying to accelerate normaly. The vehicle is in motion on city streets and urban highways when this happens. This has happened several times over the last couple of months - and as recently on Sunday August 27, 2017.
At 20k miles in our 2015 Nissan Murano, we experienced the car chugging at speeds under 15mph, turning a corner, accelerating from a stop. The chugging was followed by engine revving. This was followed 2 days later by complete failure while driving at highway speeds. The car would not accelerate at all. It had to be towed to the dealership. The service engine light came on after the engine failed. Nissan cannot determine a cause and is replacing the transmission.
Car hesitates when accelerating causing a danger when car does not go as expected when pulling into traffic. It also jerks and shudders at lower speeds, the car shakes somewhat violently and will stop if you floor the gas pedal. Bought the car brand new from dealer and have brought in for the issue to be told the computer doesn't see a problem. I drive the car daily I know there is an issue and it is dangerous to drive when it chooses not to go when accelerating. It has been a problem since I bought the car and have complained to the dealership numerous times.
