2009 Nissan Murano Other or unknown Problems

“I was driving down the highway. There were no warning lights on my dashboard aside from the TPMS light. There was a loud pop noise, so I pulled over to check it out. Within 30 seconds smoke came from under the hood and quickly turned from white to black. Then the vehicle caught on fire. It was completely burned with nothing but the trunk left in tact.”

“Hit a deer going 35 MPH and deployed both front airbags. I was the passenger when my airbag went off it hit my face and fractured my maxilla, broke off one tooth and made another loose enough it had to be pulled out also. Split upper and lower lip both needing stitches. Do to the damage sustained and the airbags being deployed my insurance company found the car unrepairable and a total loss.”

I think this should be cause for a recall, or at least replacement by Nissan corp. There was no indication of an issue, and we've owned the vehicle for about 8 years. It makes me even wearier than I'm am regarding the issue of following distance for cars. …”

“Recently, a problem arose with my 2009 Nissan Murano's occupant classification system (ocs). The airbag light in my car had turned on so I brought it to the mechanic. After numerous efforts, he suggested that I bring it to the local Nissan dealer. When I did, they were at a loss as to what to do. At the time, I called Nissan north america ('nna') to see if there was anything they could do. After registering my concerns, nna apparently made some inquiries of the dealer and then told me that the car was out of warranty. …”
