Driving within a few miles headed home from work my car began to loose power as if it wanted to die out on me. It struggled tremendously to gain RPM as if it wasn't getting any gas. I had reached a red traffic light and was afraid it would shut off while awaiting on light to turn green. It would not pick up speed and was shaking badly. Eventually my check engine light appeared but I was already arriving home thankfully. Sadly, upon doing my research of troubleshooting possible issues for Nissan Murano online I came across many issues regarding the transmission. Worse of it all, Nissan has been well informed of this ongoing issue. A class action was filed in 2016 but it appears that was a limited time. My issue has just begun regarding my transmission, so how does this help anyone who is just now dealing with this type of issue? Anyone else with recent similar issue your feedback is greatly appreciated.

The engine was running fine after this but when I placed it in gear, car wouldn’t go and rolled backwards while in oncoming traffic. Engine light did come on. Car was towed to a transmission repair shop.

When driving on a long trip, with the cruise-control set, the car suddenly lurched and lost power. The speed reduced and it came out of cruise. I had just started up an incline, so I didn't know if that was the problem. A short time after that the check engine light came on. The transmission started to have issues. It would not go into overdrive and would over rev. We were able to make it to our destination and we took it to a mechanic to have the check engine light checked. The mechanic said it was the transmission and that they could not repair it. We called a transmission shop and they said that they could not repair it either. They had not had any training on how to repair it and that the transmission would have to be replaced. They also said that they had other nissan muranos come in with the same issue. This could be a serious safety issue that could if this happened on a highway with heavy traffic. We made it to the second part of the trip but we had to baby the car. The car would not make it home with the car and we had to have it shipped back. I checked and there is not a recall for this issue.

Car won't start. Taken to dealership four times in one month and continues to have issues. Originally told it was the ipdm module which was replaced. About a week and half later the engine wouldn't start again but the dashboard lights, radio and heat/air wouldn't shut off. Was told this time that it was a faulty battery which was replaced. After picking it up and driving less than 10 miles and sitting for a few hours it wouldn't start again. Every single light on the dashboard is on and again the engine won't start or cut off the lights. Had it towed back to the dealership and 4 days later was told that it was due to a rusty bolt of some sort that was loose and needed to be replaced. 2 days later it wouldn't start again. A few hours later the car starts but the check engine light is on. Car was towed to dealership again and it has now been four days with no updates from the dealership. Also - drivers side sunvisor is broken and won't stay up which impairs vision. After all of these trips to the dealership they said it would cost over $200 to fix. I didn't think much of it until I reviewed and noticed that many other have the same issue with the sun visors so this is not an isolated incident.
