2005 Nissan Murano Steering Problems

“This problem has been going on since 2013. Power steering leakage. 3 mechanics checked car couldn't find leak. I ended up carrying fluid with me cause I never knew when it would go out. The 4th mechanic changed the power steering pressure switch that wasn't the problem. He has now found that the care leaks when not in motion. A power steering rack has been ordered”

“Subframe broke between the rear wheels while driving on city street. Mechanic inspected it and subframe is rusted from inside out. Mileage on the car is 150,000 miles and I am the first owner that took very good care of the car, from keeping it in my garage, to regular maintenance and car washing to prevent rust. Car is inoperable waiting for the part to come in for replacement for 6 days. Nissan had a recall on this model for 2003-2007 year of manufacturing, however I had not received any notice.”

“Vehicle takes minutes to pick up speed especially true when it is on a stop position either in an intersection or traffic light intersection. I put my foot on the gas and press all the way down where it slowly moves, pick up a speed and do the same thing for each stop sign or traffic stop light. When starting the vehicle, it makes a screeching sound. If able to drive, steering wheel sometimes have that slight shaking. We have been experiencing these issues for more than a year now. Tires were changed and brakes changed but issues still a big concern.”

“High side power steering hose on Nissan Murano. 2003-2007 this is a fire hazard. A factory recall should be issued for the high side power steering fluid line on the Nissan Murano. This is a common issue with the Nissan Murano from my research on the internet. The dextron fluid is highly flammable! I have a two year old child and nissans concern should be about peoples safety and not money! I was also informed from a few Nissan dealers this is an issue with muranos.”

“I am the original owner of 2005 Murano. I noticed a problem with hydroplaning soon after purchase, and have always been extremely careful and on guard when driving in rain or even when streets are wet. This would happen with brand new tires and tires that were slightly worn so the tires don't seem to be the problem, unless its the type of tire but its not the tread on the tire. The car came with goodyear eagle p235/65 r18 tires and I have replaced with same tires when Nissan service department advised of tread wear. …”
