2017 Nissan Murano driver assistance problems

Filed Mar 17, 2026 · Driver assistance · IN

The forward looking sonar sensor turns off after the first 2 miles, which in turn deactivates the adaptive cruise control and the automatic emergency braking system. I have learned that this is a widespread problem on many Nissans, including the Rogue and Murano. The dealership said it was recalled on the Rogue, but not on the Murano, so it would cost thousands to replace.

At random times while driving the forward collision warning system and cruise control will stop working. On average it happens about every 20 to 25 miles and remains off for 2 to 3 minutes. It does not occur at regular intervals though, this is just the average. It was very difficult to get nissan to replace the sensor while the car was under warranty. They did not want to and finally when they agreed they said the part was on back order due to high demand so I'm not the only customer who has complained about this. The sensor still does not work properly and having the forward collision warning/automatic braking not reliable is a safety issue. Having the cruise control not work is just an annoyance. At nissan's suggestions, I've cleaned the sensor many times and I've ensured that nothing is blocking the sensor. It is simply a faulty, unreliable part and I believe there should be a national recall. This has been happening for over 2 years now. It took many months of complaining and sending them pictures of it not working before they replaced the sensor the first time. That fixed the issue for a few months but now the second sensor on the car has been malfunctioning for over a year. I'm attaching a couple of pictures for example. This issue has happened over a 100 times to me though.

Adas is completely unresponsive. The vehicle breaks unexpectedly without cause or warning. The problem is most common when crossing railroad tracks. This presents an extreme safety hazard to myself and my family. The system no has no function and I am unable to utilize the most basic features, to include cruise control. The adas system lights are continuously illuminated on my dash, even after attempts to reset the system.

Front radar obstruction warning comes on and and cruise will turn off and vehicle will start quickly slowing down. This happens in both city and highway driving. After about 5 to 10 minutes the warning light goes off and I can reset the cruise. I believe this is a safety issue and brought it to the attention of the dealer but they said there was nothing they can do unless there is a recall.

Front radar system suddenly turns off when in motion, be it on a highway or street. Front radar/safety/front emergency breaking system/cruise control disengages or shuts off everyday/ in motion and during ff; 1. On highway and on cruise control on a random and frequent basis which also disengages the breaking assist/forward collision breaking assist 2. During sharp turns 3. On a highway when another vehicle overtakes or vise versa 4. Inadvertently shuts off from time to time. Made complains already during the 1st and 2nd routine maintenance. 'during the time of 1st visit/maintenance, customer rep said there system was down and I should get back to them. '2nd visit/maintenance, customer rep said, they have other customers with same problem and replacing the sensor unit does not solve it, and they are currently looking for a resolution, and will keep in touch once they have the solution. '3rd visit, they did some tests and confirmed my complains, however, customer rep said they have no records of my complains and the reason why my front radar sensor is not working is due to the incurred damages on my front bumper ( from on street parking). And customer rep said I have to pay for the repair/replacement of the sensor for $1400. Seen a lot of same complains on forum with the same dilemma.

My murano starts sometimes, and sometimes it won't start at all.nissan diagnostic was eletrical issues, they changed the ipdm, changed the eletrical dashboard, it worked for 11/2 weeks, and won't start again. This car is less than 50,000 miles. Apparently nissan can't fix this problem. I'm desperate for help, cause I'm still paying for this car. It's currently in my garage, it has stopped me three times on the road, and twice, in my garage couldn't start
