Consumer Description

YESTERDAY AFTER WORK, I OPENED THE HATCH TO THE BACK OF MY VEHICLE TO REMOVE JUMPER CABLES. WHEN I WENT TO CLOSE THE HATCH DOOR, IT WOULD NOT STAY CLOSED. I LOOKED CLOSER AT THE MECHANISM THAT LOCKS THE DOOR IN THE CLOSED POSITION, AND IT WAS NOT MOVING BACK INTO THE PROPER POSITION. I THOUGHT INITIALLY IT WAS DUE TO THE COLD WEATHER, BUT EVEN AFTER IT WAS GIVEN TIME TO HEAT UP IT CONTINUED TO STAY IN THE OPEN POSITION. I MADE DUE BY DUCT TAPING THE HATCH CLOSED TO MAKE IT HOME. I LOOKED ONLINE AND SAW THAT THOUSANDS OF OTHER MURANO OWNERS HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THEIR LOCK ACTUATORS ON DOORS, HATCHES AND EVEN THE GAS COVER ACTUATOR. IT IS EXTREMELY CONCERNING TO ME DUE TO THE OBVIOUS SAFETY HAZARDS THAT ACCOMPANY THIS MALFUNCTION. *TR
