2 months ago I Bought vehicle for $4300 and found out 3 weeks ago that the frame is broken. The car is very squirrely on wet roads- no wonder? It's very dangerous and it's going to cost more than the car is worth to fix it.

What 2007 Nissan Murano owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
The rear subframe is extremely rusted and breaking into pieces in multiple areas. The vehicle shakes upon acceleration and slowing down. Due to being lower income I cannot afford to fix the subframe (estimated to cost $400 for the the frame not including labor). Also the vacuum lines dry rotted and fell apart.
Hello, i would like to report a problem. Didnt really see anything about transmission on the choices listed above. Well i got this car used from someone. Didnt really noticed the transmission problem until i was driving it for a while on the freeway. The transmission is just so bad . It is stuck on 3rd gear all the way. At high speeds. So imagine, the engine is whining so bad. The car basically wants to give up now. Still starts, revers, goes foward with no problem. Shifting is the problem. Also, ive checked the transmission fluid. Its still at a perfect level. Yes, it has roughly 129,000 miles on it. But really? This car should be lasting longer. Please. I really dont want to pay out of pocket for a whole new transmission. Theres got to be a way or something you guys could do to help me and my family.
While driving the car will stall and not keep up with the speed I am doing . While entering the highway I need to accelerate and increase speed the vehicle will appear to be at the speed via the speedometer but it will lag and shutter and pause, causing cars to have to slam on breaks or quickly move to another lane because my vehicle cannot keep up with the flow of traffic. It is not safe on highway or on street. I've have kept up with regular tune ups, oils changes and new tires . Recently got a tune up and the issue still persist . Very scary.
I recently purchased this car used. After driving it for a little while, the car started shaking every time I would try to accelerate, but would get smooth once I got up to speed. After a few stop and go, the car decided to go into limp mode. I managed to get the car home safely, but barely. Now it drives smooth for a few minutes and then the extreme shaking returns. It only happens when the car is in drive, and stops after I shift it out. After doing some research online, I found that the transmission in the 07 nissan murano is notorious for failing. Nissan actually extended the warranty to 10 years/ 120,000 miles. But if you cannot get it fixed within that time your stuck, because they are so bad no transmission shop would work on them. Every forum related to muranos just rants about how bad the transmission is. Nissan should be responsible for putting faulty transmissions in so many vehicles, I am scared to imagine what would happen if it failed on the highway while at speed.

Been having major issues with the power of the vehicle. It's like shaking and not accelerating like it should be.
Driving on the highway and all of a sudden started sounding like something was binding. When I got a chance to look under the vehicle, I can clearly see that the rear differential has shattered, broken completely apart and can see the gears inside. I googled 07 murano rear differential and the exact same thing keeps coming up. The current rear differential looks to have a yellow grease mark on it. Indicates to me the part has been replaced before and the replacement did the same thing.
My car is totally just crap! I've replaced coil packs, alternator, mass air flow sensor, battery, hub assemblies, catalic converter, and a lot more and it still has major problems! I believe it has electrical problems because my radio gets a loud static. It seems like it has a hard time accelerating. Then starts shaking real bad at about 20-40mph, then does fine above 60mph???
Vehicle sporadically stalls upon attempting to accelerate under normal driving conditions. Operator must apply more pressure to the gas pedal than necessary to enter traffic because it will not respond fast enough to uncoming traffic.
