This is the second set of sunvisors on my Murano definite safety hazard when hitting a slight bump in the road, they fall down blocking your vision all of a sudden. While driving, I have to push it back up and most of the time it falls right back down. This is something that Nissan should be held accountable for as $200 a set is very expensive when they keep breaking. If I get hurt because of them in a car accident, I will be suing Nissan.

What 2010 Nissan Murano owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
I began hearing a rattling sound coming from the rear of the vehicle. I believed it was possibly the suspension, as the vehicle would also bounce more often than expected when going over any irregularities in the road (potholes, speed bumps, normal wear on roads, etc). I brought it to the dealership where I purchased the vehicle, and they found no issues. I had previously replaced all 4 tires and brakes before hearing this sound, and nothing was brought to my attention then, either. The noise continued, and I brought the vehicle to another mechanic, where the damage was found immediately. The frame had corroded to the point where the mechanic advised me to not even drive home, rather have the vehicle towed to the dealership to be assessed and checked for a recall. Multiple incidents similar to mine have been found - all starting after 100k miles - but none have resulted in an official recall notice.

I was driving down the highway with no other vehicles around, and the moon roof suddenly exploded!!?
The door locks on the muranos do not function properly. From reading message boards online it looks like a common issue that should be recalled as it is not just my vehicle. Sometimes it won't lock and other times it won't unlock. It doesn't work with either the keyfob or from the inside of the door. It is a safety concern not being able to lock and unlock the car door. Someone could open your car door or not being able to unlock it to exit the vehicle in an emergency. Nissan wants several thousand dollars to fix the issue when it is something that is a common defect on their end. They should have to fix it.
My 2010 murano suddenly developed a loose driver's interior sun visor that has became progressively worse. It will not stay in the "up" position and will drop down to the point where it blocks my view out the windshield while driving. From discussions at various nissan online sites, I have found that many other owners have experienced the same problem for one or both visors. Something inside the visor itself breaks and the visor will no longer stay where one sets it. I have had mine suddenly fall down unexpectedly while driving or especially going over a bump, road vibrations or small pothole etc. And it will not stay up, so suddenly without warning my view of the road and traffic in front of me is blocked. Very dangerous situation.
Driving down the highway when the sunroof above the driver exploded sending shards of glass about the cabin of the car and also up into the air. Nothing struck the car and the breakage was accompanied by a loud explosion type sound.
