“Evidently a rock was able to penetrate my condenser due to the wide open gaps in the front of the vehicle. My A/C is no longer providing cold air in my 2 month old 2006 Nissan Murano. Cost of the repair $717.98 and no known prevention of this recurring multiple times. Per the lake Nissan sales manager is well aware of this recurring problem.”

“I am having problems with the drivers side sun visor in my Nissan Murano. It will just drop down suddenly. At first I was able to pull the visor down and move it forward to help protect my eyes from the sun. But that didn't last long since it will just fall straight down and block my view. When it falls I can not see the cars in front of me. I am not a tall person but I would have to be extremely small to see under the visor when it falls in straight down position. …”

“I own a 2006 Nissan Murano and in the fall of 2009, started experiencing an issue with my sunvisor. I understand that this issue is not just mine, but many other owners have the same problem. While driving, the sunvisor randomly falls down, sometimes hitting me (or my family) in the head. It is clearly a safety issue. It always occurs on rough road surfaces but also happens on smooth highways, and at random times, often startling me or whoever is driving my car. We have purchased & replaced the clips that holds the visor but that is not the problem. …”

“My 06 Murano sl began to lose pressure on the gas pedal and stall. At first it felt like someone had bumped into me, but after noticing that the car behind me had not. I tried to move on with the traffic. I put on my hazards and came to a complete stop but was not able to accelerate by using the gas pedal. Then my vehicle began to drive on its own lucky for me the traffic in front of me began to move. The vehicle came to a complete stop in the middle of the highway while I tried to move over to the emergency lane. I place the vehicle in park and then in drive. …”
