Consumer Description

WHILE ON A STOP LIGHT THE VEHICLE TOOK A VERY LONG TIME TO ACCELERATE AT LEAST AFTER 10 SECONDS. THIS CAR IS OWNED BY MY WIFE, THANK GOD SHE WASN'T ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY KIDS. I TOOK IT DO MY MECHANIC AND HE SAID THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THESE CVT TRANSMISSIONS ON THESE MURANOS' MOSTLY BETWEEN 2003-2005. THIS SHOULD BE A MUST RECALL AS THIS CAN BE A VERY DRASTIC SAFETY ISSUE AND FLAW DESIGN ON THESE TRANSMISSIONS. IN ORDER TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM MY FAMILY IS LOOKING BETWEEN $2400 TO $3000 ON REPAIRS. I AM NOT WORRY ABOUT THE COST OF THE REPAIR, MOST LIKELY I WILL HAVE TO BUY A NEW CAR BUT THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS THERE ARE A LOT OF MURANO OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE, AND I HOPE THAT WE DON'T HAVE ANY FATALITIES DUE TO THIS ISSUE BECAUSE IT CAN OCCUR ON ANY MURANO BETWEEN 2003-2005 AS LOW AS 75,000 MILES. *TR
