2017 Nissan Murano Complaint Log

RATTLING / VIBRATING NOISES INTERIOR LEFT DOOR / VENT / DASH AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURES. NISSAN IS AWARE OF DEFECTIVE PARTS. 4 ATTEMPTS WERE MADE TO REPAIR IT AND THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS AT EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE ABOVE 90 DEGREES (FLORIDA SUMMER). THE NOISES OCCUR WHILE DRIVING AROUND 45 MPH AND ARE A MAJOR DISATRACTION AND SAFETY ISSUE.DRIVING IN CITY STREETS. THE NOISE IS INTERMITTENT AND ACCORDING TO THE DEALER NISSAN HAS PREVIOUSLY ISSUED AN ADVISORY (TO DEALERS) WITH A FIX. THE "RUBBER BAND TYPE FIX" IS TEMPORARY AND THE NOISES KEEP ON OCCURRING, INTERMITTENTLY AFTER IT IS PARKED IN OPEN AREA FOR 1-2 HOURS AND CAR IS DRIVEN ON CITY STREETS AT AROUND 45 MPH. THE NOISES ARE DISTRACTION AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD. NISSAN ATTEMPTED FIXING IT 3 TIMES, AT FIRST DISMISSED IT STATING CANNOT DUPLICATE. SIMILAR INTERIOR NOISES OCCUR INTERMITTENTLY ON THE RIGHT SIDE DOOR AND DASH WHILE DRIVE AT SIMILAR SPEEDS.THE EXTERNAL TEMPERATURES ARE ABOVE 90 AND THE AC IS ON AT 72-75 DEGREES. I HAVE VIDEO TAPE ON IPHONE RECORDING THE SOUND, THE FILE IS TOO BIG TO EMAIL OR TRANSFER TO MY LAPTOP (I HAVEN'T FIGURED IT OUT AS YET). IT FIRST HAPPENED IN AUGUST 2017 AND HAS CONTINUED. THE PROBLEM GETS WORSE WITH INCREASING EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE. WORK ORDERS CONTAINS PERSONAL INFORMATION AND THEREFORE NOT ATTACHED

HAPPENS AT LEAST ONCE A TRIP. THE FRONT RADAR, USED FOR COLLISION MITIGATION/INTELLIGENT CRUISE CONTROL, SHUTS OFF AND REPORTS OBSTRUCTION FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THIS RENDERS THE SAFETY SYSTEMS USELESS.

GLARE FROM THE CHROME AREA OF THE SIDE AIR VENTS INTO THE SIDE VIEW MIRRORS BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE. THE REFLECTION FROM THE CHROME AROUND THE SIDE AIR VENTS INTO THE SIDE VIEW MIRRORS DISTORTS THE DRIVERS VISION ON BOTH MIRRORS. THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARD AND NISSAN SHOULD CORRECT THE PROBLEM. IT APPEARS NISSAN HAS FAILED TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM AND THAT OTHERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AS WELL. I HAVE HAD 3 OTHER MURANO'S AND NEVER HAD A PROBLEM UNTIL THIS MODEL AND YEAR .

HELLO, RECENTLY, I BOUGHT 2017 NISSAN MURANO PLATINUM. AFTER A MONTH, I NOTICED THAT WHEN I INCREASE HEATED SEAT TEMPERATURE TO MAXIMUM, ONE HALF(RIGHT) SIDE OF FRONT SEAT HEATING IS VERY HIGH AND OTHER HALF ACT NOT EVEN 50%. I CALLED NISSAN DEALER LOCALLY TO LOOK AND INVESTIGATE HEATING DISTRIBUTION ISSUE. ON THE SAME TIME I CALLED NISSAN CUSTOMER CARE AND EXPLAIN SITUATION. I WAS TOLD BY CUSTOMER CARE TO REPORT FINDINGS BACK TO THEM BASED ON DEALERSHIP RESPONSE. DEALERSHIP RESPONDED IT IS JUST A WAY DESIGN BY NISSAN FOR ALL MURANO, THERE IS NOTHING CAN BE DONE. IT'S JUST A WAY IT IS. I FEEL HELPLESS BY NISSAN OVERALL EXPERIENCE. NISSAN SHOULD BE ABLE TO STEP UP AND LOOKING INTO THIS ISSUE TO MAKE SURE HEATED SEAL HEAT DISTRIBUTION SHOULD BE UNIFORM, NOT LIKE ONE HALF OF SEAL GET VERY HIGH COMPARE TO OTHER HALF. THIS IS VERY POOR DESIGN WITH RESPECT TO HEATED SEAT SAFETY.
