PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR. This is blinking on my dash. I looked it up in the manual. It stated that the airbag may not deploy in an accident. I also got a recall notice for this same problem and called the dealer. They said that my vin was not included in the recall even though I had the same make, model and year and the same problem. I had a problem with this when the vehicle was new, they fixed it. They wanted two hundred dollars to look at it. Why is this safety problem in my vehicle not included?

Just purchased vehicle in november took it to mechanics because I kept getting shocked by the seat they stated the engine had been on fire with previous owner and I should check for and recall since the dealership is not willing to assist now that vehicle is completely non functional
The seat bracket broke. Really a seat bracket that breaks from fatigue of entering and leaving the vehicle?!? Safety concern sun visor no longer holds its position due to plastic that wears out. Safety issue. Transmission failure at just over 100,000 miles. Reports all over the web about this. So common, and so expensive. Major safety issue. Nissan has done nothing to address these issues that are so common with all of these models. It is not just me, there is report after report on the web. All the same issues.
Drivers seat frame broke while driving making it impossible to drive vehicle safely! Incident happened while driving vehicle on street making a turn!
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 nissan murano. While operating the vehicle, the front driver's seat was not secured and would rock and move while the driver was seated.

My 2007 nissan muran has approx 125,000 miles. I have taken care of it. It has nice tires and the most recent 4wheel alignments where approx jan and feb 2018. For whatever reason I got in one day last summer and as soon as I was on the highway my seat felt as if I got push backward and my seat bracket had just broke, I now have bricks holding up my $28,000 ride! July 26, 2018 someone pulled into my driveway hitting my parked vehicle and quickly driving away. They hit it hard enough to dent the bumper and tow bar. I immediately could tell the rear end was way off. Progressive refuses to pay for this as they said my crossmember completely rusted through as well as some of my frame and some other parts.. They say if the vehicle had not had such a serious rust problem -which is not age appropriate to my vehicle-then it would not have broken in half towing my tires in as well from that hit. Coverage is voided like a poor workmanship deal! The shop I have it at right now says its so far gone it is seriously unsafe to drive. For myself and others. Due to nissans premature rust issues my car is undriveable and my drivers seat isnt safe as well. Progressive auto insurance is refusing to stand by my full coverage policy and apparently are legally able to do so because the substandard parts give them that escape clause. I still owe on this vehicle. I really need nissan to make this right as they have even made it so it was uninsurable as I paid and I never even knew it. I have my car in places for alignments, tires, oil changes etc etc and noone ever told me it was rusting or rusted away. The progressive agent had looked at my murano upon the 1st inspection and never even told me about the danger I was in driving. Nissan has created a problem that has prompted my progressive adjuster to place my safety at risk so they can get out of paying. I took care of my car!
"nissan murano" drivers seat left side seat mount bracket that mounts to floor boards cracked and completely broke causing me to swerve into on coming traffic. A head on collision was closely avoided. I contacted ken (xxxx) nissan in medina ohio and they said that nissan motors will do nothing about it because it is not a safety issue and will do nothing about it. This issue I feek is an obvious safety issue and the vehicle shoud be recalled. I has the seat welded so it would work again but the weld eventually failed. Seat is now broke.
Was concern about the seat it goes,up but leaks,down and ,rocks like it is broke, the airbag light keeps flashing and wont stop,jumpy accelertion, and replacing front brake can be costly. I bought this vehicle and according to internet by VIN# printed out no recalls, shows now I see it had recalls what can I do to get this taken care of? Driving down the road the seat felt like it was changing the height and I had to keep readjusting it, I then stopped and went to get out and it rocked. I weigh 100lbs so I could not have broken it.
My vehicle was not moving at the time the light started flashing. The passenger air bag "off" light does not work unless I move the connector under the front right passenger seat. Then the passenger air bag light will shut off after about 10 seconds. This is the same problem listed for the recall but my vehicle is not part of the recall. This seems to be a problem for many murano's not included in the recall.
