NHTSA Complaint #10461988 — 2006 NISSAN MURANO

I PURCHASED A 2006 NISSAN MURANO BRAND NEW. AFTER DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH, I UNDERSTAND THAT MY COMPLIANT HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED NUMEROUS TIMES, BY MANY CONSUMERS AND THAT AN INVESTIGATION BY NHTSA HAS BEEN COMPLETED AND CLOSED. WITH THAT SAID, A NEW INVESTIGATION INTO THE MATTERS NEEDS TO OCCUR AND NISSAN NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL. THE VISOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE CONTINUES TO FLOP DOWN, CAUSING LIMITED VISIBILITY WHEN DRIVING. THIS IMPAIRS VISIBILITY WHEN DRIVING, WHICH IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AND ALTHOUGH IT SEEMS THAT THE DEFECT HASN'T RESULTED IN A CASUALTY YET, IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED FROM THIS DEFECT. NEXT, THE SEAT ANCHOR BRACKET/FRAME ON MY DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT IS BROKEN AND HAS CAUSED THE SEAT TO LEAN TO THE LEFT CONSIDERABLY. THE SEAT IS UNSTABLE AND ROCKS BACK AND FORTH WHILE DRIVING, WHICH AGAIN, IS A SAFETY CONCERN. THE INVESTIGATION INTO THIS MATTER BY NHTSA INDICATED THAT THE PROBLEM RESULTS FROM METAL FATIGUE. WHEN IN AUTOMOBILE HISTORY HAS THIS OCCURRED? AS I UNDERSTAND, IT WILL COST OVER $1,000 TO GET THIS FIXED. NISSAN NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ITS MANUFACTURING DEFECTS. I HOPE THEY ARE NOT WAITING UNTIL SOMEONE ACTUALLY DIES BEFORE THEY REALIZE THESE DEFECTS ARE A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. *TR
