Electrical system: “I was traveling out of state when the climate control panel on the vehicle stopped working. I was not able to control heat, defroster or air flow. Took to dealership.

NHTSA complaint #11771872, filed 2026-10

Engine: “On October 14, 2026, while driving my 2025 Nissan Murano, the engine suddenly began making an extremely loud, sustained sound as though it was revving at very high RPM. I completely released the accelerator and applied the brakes, but the loud revving continued while the vehicle slowed. I remained able to brake and reduce speed; the vehicle did not accelerate uncontrollably. I safely pulled over, switched off the engine, and restarted it. The abnormal behavior then disappeared. I did not record the actual RPM. …”

Other or unknown: “I was in a parking ramp attempting to park in a tight space that required back & forth maneuvering. I was going forward towards a concrete wall. All of a sudden my car lurched forward to the wall causing damage to my car. This all happened in a matter of seconds. Speed was minimal.”
