2006 Nissan Murano body complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 21 of 21, newest first, as owners wrote them.
The metal frame under the driver side broke on the left side causing the seat to move, rock and bounce. This cause distractions and can result in an accident.
When making a left hand turn, I heard a crack underneath the driver's side. Afterwards the seat now rocks back and forth and lifts up when making turns. I have searched all over the web and it seems this is a known defect with nissan drivers side seats on some of their vehicles to the point that they issued a technical service bulletin. I am very disappointed with the fact that nissan is not standing behind their products. I drive a 2006 nissan murano and it only has 51,000 miles on it. The issue appears to be with the seat bracket lifter link assembly.
Metal frame holding seat to car has metal fatigue and has separated.
Driver door cannot be locked or unlocked with the remote key (fob) nor with the button in the handle. It works only manually with the key inserted in the door socket.
The drivers seat of my 2006 nissan murano cracked at the weld in the frame causing the seat to drop at a steep angle in the back. Fortunately the incident occurred when I was getting in the vehicle rather than when I was driving as it surely would have caused a extremely dangerous and undriveable situation. The dealership service manager concurred that it was a manufacturing defect in my vehicle, however nissan would not cover the cost of the repair, nor the cost of replacement transportation while the appropriate parts were ordered and installed which spanned several days. I am extremely displeased with the experience of dealing with nissan consumer affairs department.
Both screws holding tailgate latch to vehicle frame failed in >20k miles leaving tailgate secured by > 1/4" of plastic interior trim which is secured by 3 plastic snap connectors. Failed screws were connected to threaded metal base in enclosed box frame member. Only fix was to cut box, recover base and re-attach screws and weld cover over cut.
The drivers side seat recently started to rocking toward the drivers side door which alerted me to having a problem. The sub rail that hold the seat in broken. This happens every time I get into the car the seat is leaning to the left door. I contacted the dealer in which I purchased the car, they said it is nothing they can do because the warranty is up. I should contact the manufacture nissan which I have also done .
Driving along and back left of drivers seat suddenly dropped down about 3-inches causing me to pull the steering wheel to the left into on coming traffic. I suspect a bolt has come loose or more likely from the numerous posts I have found online a weld has broken. This is regarding a 06 nissan murano.
I own a 2006 nissan murano with approximately 105,000 miles. I weigh 160 pounds and do 95% of my driving on a highway. While driving on a highway, the frame supporting the driver seat cracked causing the seat to become unstable and creating a hazardous situation. As a result, I have to keep the seat in the lowest possible position, otherwise it becomes highly unstable. The dealer estimated the repairs at $1,035. The result of my research of this defect disclosed that it is a fairly common occurrence for 2006 nissan muranos. However, when I contacted nissan and explained the situation, they responded that there is no recall for this defect and they will not be able to reimburse me for any portion of the repair.
I have a 2006 nissan murano. Approx. 6 months ago the driver's seat would start squeaking whenever I made any turns or drove over bumps. It sounds like plastic grinding. On 12/12/08, I sat in the seat and the frame broke. The driver's seat now rocks from side to side whenever you turn. This is a safety issue as your feet will come off the gas or break whenever you turn. I went on the web, and there are several public forums from murano owners complaining about the same issue. Nissan is aware of the problem, but will not take any any action. The local nissan dealer will only replace the whole seat for $1,200.00 and not try to fix the root of the problem. If they want you to buy a whole new seat, what is to prevent this from occurring again? Unacceptable. Nissan needs to recall this seat, because it is a safety issue.
