Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)Forward collision warning light comes on and off while driving. When the light comes on the cruise control will not work and when the light goes off I need to reset the cruise control. This started about two months ago.
The transmission shutters at low speeds and doesn’t not engage Driving in the freeway is scary
The FCW turns off within 10 miles of driving. The FCW light clears up if the vehicle is shut off and restarted. However FCW warning comes back up and the FCW system is disabled.
AEB light was on so we took it into the St. Augustine Nissan dealership. They told us the ABS actuator needed replaced and there are now more lights including the ABS on the dash after they were in the car. They said the part was on back order since February and that there were about 70 people ahead of us in line waiting for this part. Hearing that I decided to check for recalls and noticed there were ABS recalls on other Muranos of the same year. This also keeps cruise control from working.
The contact owns a 2018 Nissan Murano. The contact stated while reversing, the rearview camera image was black. An unknown dealer was made aware of the failure and the contact was requested to pay a diagnostic testing fee. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 3,000.
FORWARD COLLISION CONTROL SENSOR GOES ON AND OFF, UNTIL IT STAYS OFF ALL THE TIME. IT ALSO HAS MADE THE CRUISE CONTROL UNOPERABLE. AFTER ABOUT 1 MONTH THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON, THE CODE WAS YAW SENSOR. RESET CODE AND NO PROBLEMS FOR ABOUT 10 DAYS. STARTED CAR ONE MORNING IN GARAGE AND ABS LIGHT WAS ON AGAIN, SAME CODE. ON MANY INTERNET SITES THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE FORWARD COLLISION CONTROL ON THE MURANOS AND OTHER NISSAN MODELS. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THESE ISSUES. DEALERSHIPS WANT TO HOLD MY CAR FOR 4-5 DAYS BEFORE WORKING ON IT, THEN TELL ME THE PROBLEMS WITH IT AND THEN ME TELL HOW MUCH TO FIX IT AND WHEN THEY CAN GET TO IT. THIS FORWARD COLLISION PROBLEM IS A SAFETY ISSUE BRAKING THE VECHILE TO AVOID A WRECK.
The Automatic Emergency Braking system is malfunctioning whereby for no apparent reason the AEB light comes on which disables it and also my Cruise Control. Reputable car repair shop told me that a false positive signal is sent which disables AEB. Cannot turn off in Settings. When I turn off the vehicle the AEB light will be off however it will come again for no reason after inconsistent time periods have elapsed. Contacted Nissan Customer Service and was told that there is no record of other complaints about the AEB.
My 2018 Nissan Murano Intelligent Forward Collision Warning System (IFCWS) kicks on randomly and inadvertently when there is no forward collision risk. This causes the IFCWS light to come on and the cruise control to be disabled while driving causing a higher risk of an accident. This is a known issue that has yet to have a recall.
The distance measuring sensor failed on my 2018 Murano. The vehicle would suddenly brake on its own without warning, with no vehicles in its path. Then, later if a vehicle would pass you and move in front of you a warning light would go on with the message "front radar unavailable due to obstruction". There are service bulletins out on this since 2015. It is my understanding through research that Nissan received a bad lot of sensors from their OEM producer. They are aware of this, yet they refuse to issue a recall to replace these defective sensors.
THE AEB SYSTEM ENGAGED WITH NOTHING INFRONT OF MY VEHICLE ON JAN 19, 2021. THIS IS NOT THE INTENDED WAY OF FUNCTIONING FOR THIS SYSTEM.
The front radar module frequently fails disabling the Automatic Emergency Braking and the Adaptive Cruise Control.
