“While driving, my panoramic sunroof suddenly exploded. When the glass broke, it broke outward as it was lifted when I saw it when I got to my destination.”

NHTSA complaint #11317081, filed 2020-03, 73,465 miles

“My drivers side door is locked. I started my car, drive off and it auto locks at a certain speed. When I stopped I was unable to unlock the door. I was forced to climb out the passenger side. The car had a manual key lock, this also failed, it will lock the other doors but will not unlock any of them. It failed and there is no manual way to open the door. This is a major safety issue, if I was involved in an accident I would have been trapped in the car. I approached Nissan. They laughed it off and say my car is out of warranty so I must pay to repair this. …”

“When on a test drive with the new 2015 Murano on the highway, I encountered a semi infront of me and to the right of me; a typical everyday occurrence with my 80 mile drive to/from work. This is the point that scared me-- it felt as if the Murano was being lifted off the ground and the whole vehicle was floating back and forth, the sales person stated I just caught some draft from the semi's. I stated everyday to/from work 80 miles in a small 4 door car and also a fullsize crewcab truck, the vehicle varies on days. …”
