I own a 2005 nissan murano with a defective driver side sun visor. It will not stay up and keeps falling down blocking my vision at time and is a distraction while driving. Tried to contact dealer and they refuse to replace it under warranty.
My 2005 nissan murano drivers side sun visor will not stay up. This has been going on for months. It falls several times, every time we driver the car. Have seen hundreds of posts on this issue. This is a serious safety issue. When the sun visor falls my husband can not see out the window. He almost ran into the back of another car the last time he drove. This should be a safety recall.
Recently, the sun visor on our 2005 nissan murano started falling down suddenly while driving. This happens frequently - every few hundred feet on a paved, bumpy road. Smooth interstate lanes do not affect, but hit 1 bump and you'll have the visor in your face. This visor obstructs the view of anyone taller than 5'4" immediately. This car only has 58,500 miles on it. I took it to the nissan dealer, he said they'd seen this before but nissan did not cover replacement, the nissan price for the driver's side only for this visor was quoted at $380.00. He suggested I try a salvage yard or ebay to find one cheaper. As I went on-line to investigate, I found forum after forum of people who have experienced this same issue. Response was mostly the same - no corrective measures were offered by nissan, many had replaced the visor - only to have the replacement fail as well. I felt this to be a manufacturing defect, so I filed a complaint on the nissan website. Today they told me they weren't offering any adjustment or compensation on resolving this issue. That's when I expressed my dissatisfaction and told them I would be filing a complaint with you. I believe this to be a legitimate safety concern due to immediate and almost total view obstruction when the visor falls. Even if the driver is short, it is an obvious distraction. Must someone have a tragic accident before a manufacturer steps up to do the right thing?

Driver's side sun visor on my 2005 nissan murano has loosened and falls in the driver's line of sight unexpectedly. It has been vertified by the dealership at a cost of almost $500. Nissan has been contacted and has refused to cover the replacement. It is a safely hazzard since it blocks the driver's vision and falls without warning. It will not stay where it should, either up or down, and is practically in the driver's face when it falls. Evidently it is an issue that has occured in nissan muranos since 2003 and the manufacturer knows about it and has not taken appropriate action to correct the problem with successive models nor to cover the cost for those owners whose autos are out of warranty. As with any recall issue, it is a safety issue that should be addressed.

I own a 2005 nissan murano and have had numerous "incidents" regarding a continuling problem with the driver's side sun visor. The mechanism that holds the visor upright and in an angle position to block the sun is not working and repeatedly drops and droops rather unexpectedly to the point of hindering my ability of driving safely. Numerous times while driving on the highway the visor drops and blocks my view several times this has nearly caused an accident. I have talked to the nissan dealer and they say it is not a safety issue, there is no recall infomation and I must replace on my own expense regardless if I have a warranty. I have contacted the dealer I purchased the vehicle from and have not had any solutions other than to pay over $500 to fix the problem. I find this outrageous and danderous. An online search yeilds a large number of other murano owners with the same problem.
