The vehicle's current problem is that the alternator is malfunctioned, and defected which causes the engine and battery to shut off and die. This already occurred more than 3 times. In addition, the oil tank pipe leaks. This is very dangerous because when the defected alternator fails, then it causes the battery and engine to shut off and die. If a person is driving a defected vehicle that has a defected and malfunctioned alternator that causes the engine to shutoff and die in the middle of a highway or street then a huge accident can occur and it will cause the driver and passengers to die or even get severely or permanently injured. This vehicle definitely has a recall, malfunctioned, and defected alternator. I bought my vehicle that is under warranty to the nissan service dept but they never admit that it is the defected alternator problem and never fix it. They just provide and install a new battery in my vehicle. But that does not solve the problem because the battery power gets drained and it dies and shuts off the engine. This already happened to me over 3 times and nissan's service dept never resolves this important problem. This urgent problem needs to taken cared of asap or else it will be dangerous for driver and passenger's life.
2006 Nissan Murano fuel system complaints
Page 3 of 3: complaints 41 to 44 of 44, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Problem (continuing to) fill-up with fuel when using gas pumps with vapor recovery: for the most part, the pump trigger should not be opened to maximum otherwise will trigger a shut-off; however, if a slight jerk back of the pump occurs, will trigger a stop and can no longer continue fill-up even though the tank is not even close to being topped off. Researching the web had revealed that this happens to many later-model vehicles.
2006 nissan murano won't take gas stops nozzle even when its not full***cc the vehicle was taken to the dealer. The dealer replaced the fuel tank but that did not correct the problem.
I have a 2006 nissan murano sl. The recurring problem I have is that when filling up with gas, the pump stops generally after pumping only 0.5 gallons to 3 gallons. Often, I can not fill it up anymore at that pump. Sometimes, I can start to fill it up at a slower rate and continue to get the rest of the gas in the tank. This has happened at 7 or 8 different stations in town, at numerous pumps - so it is not a case where 1 pump at a station is pumping too fast (as was used as the initial excuse). I have read in forums of this exact same problem, in addition someone at my dealer has confirmed they have seen this before. Yet my murano is currently in the shop for the 3rd time since may 2006. They have cleaned the rollover float and are now replacing the tank assembly. One more time qualifies for the lemon law in illinois.
