Recently my 2007 Nissan Murano was dragging a little on slow speeds. I checked the wheels and found the driver's side rear brake had more brake dust then the other side. I pulled the wheels and found that the brake caliper was froze. I bought two "new" calipers and rotors and replaced them. I then used an Air driven suction device to replace all the fluid in the system and bleed the air out of the system. When I started it up the brake pedal was very spongy so I brought to the local tire Kingdom about 1/2 mile away and let them bleed it out. They stated that the master cylinder was now no good. I purchased a "new" master cylinder installed it, and re-bleed the system. The pedal was still dangerously spongy and low so on 06/14/202I the vehicle to the local Nissan dealer. After a few days they stated that the "ABS Brake Actuator" was not functioning. I questioned why the ABS warning light didn't come on and they didn't know. The dealer said the part was no longer available new so hey offered to get one from LKQ scrap yard for $780.00 and for $220.00 more it would be covered for a year. I looked into the issue and found that the 2009 Murano's were recalled for this issue, so I inquired what year was the part coming out of. They didn't know so I got one on my own from the exact same vehicle and brought to them to install. A few days later they stated that the new "Master Cylinder" was defective. I went back to Nappa Auto and bought another one and gave to them to install and re-bleed the system. My question is a vehicle with an ABS warning light a Brake System warning light and even just a Engine check light never came on, why not? The dealer has no answer for me and I am concerned that this will happen again and possibly at a higher rate of speed. Can you investigate this incident for me? Thank you for your time and consideration.

Upon driving my vehicle, my ABS and AWD lights came on and it felt as though the abs brakes were engaging, despite being on a flat, dry road driving at low speed. My car was making a very slight, difficult to hear noise coming from the rear, a knocking noise of sorts. I also began hearing a high pitched, whirring noise as well, though I could not identify the location or source. Upon inspection by a mechanic, I was informed that 1. The rear subframe was rusted and would need to be replaced as it was causing the control arms to move when they should not. 2. Front driver's side wheel bearing was causing the high pitched "whirring noise" and needed to be replaced. I was told to take vehicle to a body shop to repair the subframe problem. I had the front wheel bearing replaced at the auto mechanic. However, the high pitched noise that I was told was caused by the bearing, still persisted. I then decided to tow the vehicle to the body shop as upon visual inspection under my vehicle, the rear sway bar was resting on my exhaust and I felt it u safe to drive. Spoke with the body shop owner the next day, he informed me that my car was very unsafe and could not be driven because the rear subframe was so rusted and corroded, there "is practically nothing left to it." Body shop owner said that this could result in a dangerous, possibly fatal accident.

Driving on the interstate. Abs lights, brake lights, and odometer stopped working. Smelled burning from under the hood. Took it to a nissan dealership who determined that the fuse box was faulty, the ABS module went out as well as the ECM. Dealership said that my air bags were not functioning since the incident, and that the vehicle was unsafe to drive. When searching to find out what happened, found numerous incidents of nissan vehicles having the same exact issue.

Unfortunately I did no advanced research on the nissan murano and now we are resting among the group of other upset murano owners. A month ago we purchased a used 2007 murano sl awd with 29,000 miles. After a week of driving it we made a moderately slow stop as we approached a red-lighted intersection. The vehicle surged forward as the brakes were being applied. We could feel the anti-lock brakes begin to pulse at the pedal. The usual quite transmission began to make shifting noises as it argued with an engine that was rising in RPM. With a loud and pronounced clunk and my head was thrust into the headrest restraint pad. The vehicle stopped just before impacting the rear of a car before us. This has happened twice, with repeat visits to the dealer for repairs. They say they find nothing wrong, codes are all fine etc. They even serviced the ABS brake sensors at no charge, but I know that is not the problem here. So in a nut shell nissan has done nothing to fix the problem, and is unable to help us.
