Consumer Description
THE NISSAN MURANO DRIVER SEAT BRACKET HAS CRACKED LIKE EVERY OTHER PERSON ON THIS LIST HAS STATED WHILE MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING TO AND FROM WORK WHICH SHE DRIVES DAILY ONLY 14 MILES ROUND TRIP. SHE GOES BETWEEN 30-45 MILES PER HOUR AND WHILE THIS CRACK OCCURRED SHE WAS GOING ABOUT 35ON A CITY STREET, SHE DIDN'T LOOSE CONTROL BUT THE CAR DID VEER OFF TO THE SIDE AS WHO WOULD EXPECT YOUR SEAT TO PARTIALLY COLLAPSE. THANK GOODNESS THE ROAD WAS EMPTY AND SHE HAS NO TRAFFIC TO COMBAT WITH. THE NHTSA SHOULD CARE OF THE CHANCE OF DEATH OR ACCIDENT FROM OCCURRING NOT JUST WHAT HAS HAPPENED, THE COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN STATED AS BEING HIGH BY THE NHTSA. CLEARLY NISSAN USA SHOULD BE LIABLE IF THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS THAT IT IS CLEAR THEY HAVE USED A FAULTY PART. A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED AND PROTECTION FOR THE CONSUMERS WHO HAVE INVESTED OR CHOSEN THESE CAR SHOULD BE A PRIORITY NOT PROTECTION OF BIG BUSINESS. THIS IS A COMPONENT THAT SHOULDN'T BREAK IF A PROPERLY CONSTRUCTED BRACKET WAS USED. HAVING HAD 7 CARS OVER MY LIFE FROM RANGING IN AGE FROM 20 YEARS OLD TO BRAND NEW NONE OF THEM HAVE EVER HAD THIS ISSUE AND I AM APPALLED THAT NO ONE, NOT NISSAN OR THE NHTSA CARES ABOUT A POORLY CONSTRUCTED PRODUCT THAT IS NOT WHAT THE CONSUMER PAID FOR AND COULD LEAD TO POTENTIAL INJURY. I GUESS SOME MORE PEOPLE HAVE TO GET HURT OR DIE FOR THE NHTSA TO CARE, QUITE SAD WHEN YOU LOOK AT IT THIS WAY.
