2005 NISSAN MURANO Visibility Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SUN VISORS FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

THE SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE WILL NOT STAY IN THE UPWARD OR "NOT IN USE" POSITION. I CAN BE DRIVING AND IT WILL FALL DOWN BLOCKING MY VISION WHILE DRIVING. IN THE BEGINNING I THOUGHT IT WAS ONLY MY CAR BUT AFTER RESEARCHING AND TALKING WITH DEALERSHIP IT IS A COMMON MALFUNCTION. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY ARE AWARE BUT THE PROBLEM CANNOT BE FIXED BY RECALL BECAUSE NISSAN HAS NOT GIVEN THEM THE "OKAY." IN ORDER TO FIX PROBLEM A NEW VISOR WOULD NEED TO BE INSTALLED WITH VISOR PART ALONE COSTING $200+. I CURRENTLY HAVE TO PULL OVER THE EXTENSION VISOR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE TO HOLD UP THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR, AND THE DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR WILL STILL FALL DOWN AT RANDOM TIMES BLOCKING MY VISION AND AT TIMES AT VERY CRUCIAL MOMENTS. I FEEL THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD AND A DEFECT PRODUCT INSTALLED...

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF 2005 MURANO. I NOTICED A PROBLEM WITH HYDROPLANING SOON AFTER PURCHASE, AND HAVE ALWAYS BEEN EXTREMELY CAREFUL AND ON GUARD WHEN DRIVING IN RAIN OR EVEN WHEN STREETS ARE WET. THIS WOULD HAPPEN WITH BRAND NEW TIRES AND TIRES THAT WERE SLIGHTLY WORN SO THE TIRES DON'T SEEM TO BE THE PROBLEM, UNLESS ITS THE TYPE OF TIRE BUT ITS NOT THE TREAD ON THE TIRE. THE CAR CAME WITH GOODYEAR EAGLE P235/65 R18 TIRES AND I HAVE REPLACED WITH SAME TIRES WHEN NISSAN SERVICE DEPARTMENT ADVISED OF TREAD WEAR. ON JULY 22, 2013 I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM GATLINBURG WITH DAUGHTER AND 2 YEAR OLD GRANDDAUGHTER IN CAR. WE WERE CAUGHT IN DOWNPOUR GOING THROUGH KNOXVILLE. I TRULY CANNOT BELIEVE WE ARE ALIVE. MY CAR WOULD CONTINUALLY LOSE TRACTION AND IT WOULD SLIDE TO ONE SIDE UNTIL IT WOULD GRAB TRACTION...

THE VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. IT IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE I AM 6'1"AND MY SON IS 6'9" AND WE CAN'T SEE OUT OF THE WINDOW WHEN WE DRIVE. THIS IS SUPPOSEDLY A COMMON THING WITH THIS CAR. IT COSTS LIKE $300. TO FIX. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NISSA KNOWS ABOUT IT AND SHOULD HAVE TO FIX IT WITHOUT CHARGE. *TR

ORIGINAL OWNER, PURCHASED NEW IN 2005. THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR WILL NOT STAY IN UP POSITION AND MUST BE HELD IN PLACE BY OTHER MEANS .(I AM CURRENTLY USING A BUNGEE CORD THAT IS ATTACHED TO THE VISOR CLIP AND RAN ACROSS TO THE DRIVERS SIDE ROOF HANDLE ABOVE WINDOW TO HOLD THE VISOR UP SO THAT I HAVE ADEQUATE VISIBILITY THROUGH THE FRONT WINDSHIELD). WHEN ATTEMPTING TO REPOSITION THE VISOR IN THE UP AND LOCK POSITION I HEARD A POPPING SOUND. AFTER THAT, THE VISOR HAS FAILED TO STAY LOCKED IN THE UP AND FLAT POSITION, KEEPING IT FLUSH AGAINST THE INTERIOR ROOF. IF NOT USING ANOTHER MEANS TO KEEP THE VISOR UP, IT WILL REMAIN IN THE DOWN POSITION AND BLOCKS DRIVERS VIEW. DOES NOT HAVE THE FLEXIBILITY TO REMAIN AT AN ANGLE TO BLOCK SUN, ONLY HANGS STRAIGHT DOWN. *TR

CPSC#I1320244A. CONSUMER STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP AND BLOCKS HER VIEW WHILE DRIVING. *LN

ELECTRONIC DOOR LOCK ON THE DRIVER SIDE WOULD SPORADICALLY UNLOCK OR LOCK DOOR...NOW IS ALL THE TIME AND MUST BE LOCKED MANUALLY. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN TRYING ENTER THE VEHICLE IN AN UN SECURE ENVIRONMENT OR CAN RESULT IN STOLEN MERCHANDISE OR PARTS LEFT IN THE VEHICLE. DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR ALSO WELL NOT STAY IN UPRIGHT POSITION AND DROPS SUDDENLY BLOCKING THE VIEW OF THE DRIVER. *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT REMAIN IN UP DURING DRIVING CONDITIONS. ITEM WILL FALL INTO DOWN POSITION AND OBSTRUCT DRIVER'S VIEW OF ROAD, OTHER VEHICLES, AND SIGNAGE. THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT ON BUMPY ROADS; THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY FOR THE PAST 12 MONTHS, ALL ON HIGHWAY MILES. *TR

THE SUN VISORS REFUSE TO STAY UP WHILE DRIVING AND MAKE DRIVING UNSAFE. *TR

SUN VISOR - FALLS DOWN BLOCKING THE DRIVERS VIEW WHILE DRIVING. WEAK SPRING IN THE UNIT I WAS TOLD. NEW REPLACEMENT PART IS $500. *TR

WHEN DRIVING OVER A BUMP OR DRIVING ON A BUMPY ROAD THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR FALLS OR DROPS DOWN UNEXPECTEDLY. IT APPEARS THAT THE VISOR IS NOT TIGHTLY HELD BY THE BRACKET THAT IT SITS ON. WHEN THIS OCCURS, THERE IS COMPLETE LOSS OF VISION THROUGH THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHER SPEEDS (OR ANY SPEED FOR THAT MATTER), THIS LOSS OF VISION MIGHT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF THE VISOR IS NOT RAISED UP QUICKLY ENOUGH. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM ONLINE AND I HAVE FOUND THAT THERE ARE MANY, MANY OTHER NISSAN MURANO OWNERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT, ESPECIALLY FOR OWNERS WITH MODEL YEARS 2005, 2006 AND 2007. THIS IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED BEFORE THERE ARE ANY SERIOUS ACCIDENTS OR LOSS OF LIFE AS A RESULT OF THIS DEFECT. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED WITH A NEW SUN VISOR. THE...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR CONSTANTLY FLIPPED DOWNWARD. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 59,000.

VISOR KEEPS FALLING DOWN WHILE DRIVING. I ALMOST GOT INTO A CAR ACCIDENT COUPLE TIMES BECAUSE VISOR FELL DOWN AND BLOCKED MY VIEW. I THINK NISSAN SHOULD RECALL THIS PROBLEM. I RESEARCH THIS PROBLEM ONLINE AND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE GOT THE SAME PROBLEM. IT'S A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM AND SHOULD'T BE IGNORED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR CONTINUED FALLING FROM ITS HOUSING UNTIL THE VISOR WAS TIED IN PLACE. THE CONTACT SPOKE WITH THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS ADVISED THAT THERE WAS NO REPAIR AVAILABLE FOR THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEALER INFORMED HIM THAT THERE WAS ONLY A TEMPORARY REMEDY FOR THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 135,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SUN VISORS WOULD NOT REMAIN IN THE UPWARD POSITION. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE SUN VISORS FALL DOWN AND CREATE A DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THE DEALER STATED BOTH SUN VISORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT DID NOT REPLACE THE SUN VISORS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

BOTH SUN VISORS ON MY NISSAN MURANO STARTED FLOPPING VERTICALLY DOWN. THEY DO NOT STAY UP, NOR TILTED DOWNWARDS AGAINST THE WINDSHIELD. AS A RESULT MY VIEW GETS DISTURBED WHILE STARTLING ME. HAVE CHECKED WITH THE DEALER WHEN GETTING ANOTHER REPAIR. THEY SAY THAT IT COSTS $300-$500 EACH TO REPLACE THEM. NO USED SUN VISORS ARE AVAILABLE IN THE AFTER MARKET AS ALL SUN VISORS TEND TO GO BAD. THIS IS A 100% COMMON SAFETY ISSUE WITH ALL MURANO'S AND VERY EXPENSIVE REPLACEMENT WHERE THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED. I AM 51 YEARS OLD AND NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS WITH ANY CARS I HAVE EVER HAD. *TR

THE SUN VISOR IN MY NISSAN MURANO FLIPS DOWN AND DOES NOT STAY UP WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS IT SUDDENLY DROPS DOWN ON SLIGHTEST OF BUMPS AND BLOCKS THE VISIBILITY. *TR

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY SECURED IN THE 'UP' POSITION. FALLS INTO DRIVER'S VISION AT UNEXPECTED TIMES AND ESPECIALLY IF DRIVING OVER ROUGH SURFACE OR HITTING BUMP OR DIP IN ROAD SURFACE. PRESENTS CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGEROUS CONDITION(S) FROM SUDDEN LACK OF VISIBILITY AND/OR IN ACTING AS A POTENTIAL 'KNIFE EDGE' IN CASE OF A SUDDEN STOP. *TR

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR FAILS DIRECTLY INTO MY LINE OF VISION AND WILL NOT STAY UP. YOU CAN PUSH IT BACK UP BUT THEN AT ANY GIVEN TIME IT WILL FALL AGAIN. EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING AND DANGEROUS! *TR

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP REGARDLESS OF THE POSITION IT IS IN AND CONTINUES TO FALL DOWN BLOCKING THE DRIVER'S VIEW. IT FALLS DOWN UNEXPECTED WHILE DRIVING SUDDENLY BLOCKING THE DRIVER'S VIEW OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC, TRAFFIC SIGNALS, ETC. I (AND MANY OTHER OWNER BASED ON BLOGS AND REVIEWS) HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN SEVERAL TIMES, FILED A COMPLAINT AND REQUESTED A RECALL, TO NO AVAIL. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED IN EARLIER VEHICLES. UNDOUBTEDLY THERE HAVE BEEN ACCIDENTS AND NEAR MISSES DUE TO THIS OBSTRUCTION TO THE DRIVER'S VIEW OF THE ROAD AND TRAFFIC FLOWS. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE CALLED TO GET THIS MATTER ADDRESSED ESPECIALLY SINCE THE MANUFACTURER IS WELL AWARE OF THE HAZARD IT CREATES AND THAT THE COMPONENT FAILURE HAS BEEN IN EXISTENCE SINCE AT LEAST 2003. FILE # 6909366 WAS BEEN CREATED TO DOCUMENT MY CONCERN BY GINGER...

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR ON MY 2005 NISSAN MURANO WILL NOT STAY IN THE "UP" POSITION. IT CAN ROTATE TO VERTICAL AT ANY TIME, BLOCKING THE DRIVER'S VISION AND DISTRACTING THE DRIVER'S ATTENTION. REPLACEMENT VISORS ARE $300 AND UP. NISSAN IS IN COMPLETE DENIAL THAT THIS CHRONIC PROBLEM EXISTS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISORS WOULD NOT REMAINED CLOSED WHEN DRIVING OVER ANY UNEVEN ROAD SURFACES. ALSO, THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT BRACKET THAT WAS ATTACHED TO THE FRAME FRACTURED, CAUSING THE SEAT TO ROCK BACK AND FORTH ABNORMALLY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND ADVISED THAT THE COST OF REPLACING THE SEAT WOULD NOT BE COVERED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 41,000.

DRIVING IS THE EVENT LEADING TO THE FAILURE. DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY IN THE UP POSITION AND FALLS DOWN IN FRONT OF DRIVERS EYES WITHOUT WARNING OR HESITATION. THIS WILL LEAD TO ACCIDENT DUE TO THE DRIVER LOSING EYE CONTACT WITH TRAFFIC AND THE ROAD. *TR

NORMAL VEHICLE USE, ABOUT 45K MILES.THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR FAILS TO REMAIN IN THE UP POSITION. THIS LEADS TO CRITICAL DRIVER BLINDING AT UNEXPECTED TIMES, USUALLY DURING STOPS OR TURNS WHEN SIGHT IS CRITICAL. NISSAN WOULD NOT REPAIR UNDER $400 AND NO AFTER MARKET PARTS HAVE BEEN FOUND. A SEARCH SHOWS THIS TO BE A KNOWN COMMON ISSUE AFFECTING DRIVER SAFETY. *TR

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN MURANO AND BOTH SUN VISORS KEEP FALLING. I'VE TRIED VELCRO AND EVEN GLUE BUT TO NO AVAIL. THESE FAULTY VISORS ARE DANGEROUS BECAUSE THEY TEND TO FALL WHEN I AM DRIVING AND MOMENTARILY OBSTRUCT MY VIEW. I'VE COME CLOSE ON A FEW OCCASIONS TO HITTING A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME BECAUSE OF THIS. THE COST TO REPLACE THESE VISORS IS EXORBITANT ($350 OR MORE EA) AND WHILE RESEARCHING WHERE TO BUY THEM CHEAP OR EVEN A METHOD OF REPAIR FOR THIS DEFECT I'VE FOUND THAT THERE ARE MULTIPLE NISSAN OWNERS WITH THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR FELL DOWN ONE DAY AND WILL NO LONGER STAY IN UP POSITION. IT MUST BE LEFT DOWN FLUSH AGAINST THE WINDOW WHICH OBSTRUCTS THE DRIVERS VIEW OF THE ROADWAY. THE VISOR REPAIR IS COVERED BY MY WARRANTY BUT MY DEDUCTIBLE IS $200 AND TO FIX THE VISOR WITHOUT THE WARRANTY IS OVER $300. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE AND A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE FOR DRIVERS. PEOPLE WHO HAVE GOTTEN THEM REPLACED CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS ISSUE AND THE VISOR SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED WITH ONE THAT WORKS IN EVERY OTHER CAR. THERE ARE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS HERE AND IT DOESN'T APPEAR THAT ANYONE IS DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. *TR

LIKE EVERYONE ELSE HERE MY 2005 NISSAN MURANO SUN VISOR DRIVER'S SIDE WON'T STAY UP AND IT FLOPS DOWN. I AGREE THAT THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. I REFUSE TO PAY $500 TO HAVE A DEFECT ORIGINALLY FROM NISSAN REPAIRED PROPERLY. THE VISOR IS TOTALLY LOOSE AND WON'T STAY UP NOR WILL IT STAY PUT TO BLOCK THE SUN SINCE IT'S SO LOOSE THAT IT SIMPLY FLOPS STRAIGHT DOWN. I HAVE RESORTED TO USING DUCK TAPE TO TAPE IT IN THE UP POSITION SO IT DOESN'T FLOP DOWN WHEN I HIT A BUMP TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD AT 70+ MPH. IT'S A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND I'M MAD AS *** ABOUT IT. THE PASSENGER SIDE HAS A SIMILAR PROBLEM BUT IT'S NOT AS BAD - PROBABLY JUST DUE TO LESS USAGE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WOULD NOT REMAIN IN A SECURE UPWARD POSITION AND WAS OBSTRUCTING THE VISIBILITY OF THE DRIVER. THE SUN VISOR WAS PERMANENTLY REMOVED, THE PART WAS ORDERED AND THE CONTACT PLANNED TO PERFORM A REPAIR WHEN THE PART BECAME AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 62,000. UPDATED 05/05/11*LJ UPDATED 05/11/11

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WILL FALL DOWN FROM ANY POSTION AND BLOCK VISABILY OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD. IT WILL ALSO SCARE THE DRIVER CAUSING HANDS TO LEAVE THE STEERING WHEEL IN SELF PRESERVATION AND TO MOVE THE VISOR OUT OF THE VIEWING AREA. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL OF THE TIME. SO EACH TIME IT DOES HAPPEN IIT IS A SHOCK TO THE DRIVER. THERE IS NO AFTERMARKET REPAIR. THE DEALER WANTS IN EXCESS OF $300 TO REPLACE IT. THERE IS NO GUARENTEE THAT THE REPLACEMENT WILL NOT PERFORM AS THE ORIGINAL. I HAVE TRIED TO VELCRO THE VISOR IN THE UP POSITION BUT VELCRO WILL NOT STICK TO THE HEAD LINER VERY WELL. ALSO I NEED THE VISOR IN MORE THAN JUST AN UP OR DOWN POSITION. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR ARBITRARILY DROPS INTO VIEW FROM THE STORED POSITION CAUSING A DISTRACTION AND MOMENTARILY BLOCKING THE DRIVER'S VISION. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION GIVEN THE DISTRACTION, BLOCKED VISION, AND DAILY OCCURRENCES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR WOULD CONTINUOUSLY FALL, OBSTRUCTING THE DRIVERS VIEW OF THE ROADWAY. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND WAS ADVISED THAT THE ENTIRE SUN VISOR WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR WILL NOT STAY IN THE STOWED POSITION. IT FALLS DOWN INTO THE DRIVER'S LINE OF SIGHT OBSTRUCTING HIS/HER VISION. IT HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY, SURPRISING THE DRIVER, CAUSING A SAFETY HAZARD. TO KEEP IT OUT OF THE WAY, ONE HAND MUST BE USED TO HOLD IT UP, LEAVING ONLY ONE HAND TO DRIVE. *TR

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR FALLS TO FULL DOWN POSITION BLOCKING DRIVERS VIEW OF THE ROAD. INTERNET INQUIRY SHOWS MANY PEOPLE WITH THIS PROBLEM. NISSAN HAS QUOTED UP TO $400.00 FOR REPLACEMENT VISOR.(SEARCH: MURANO SUN VISOR). *TR

MY SUN VISOR HAS BEEN BROKEN FOR NEARLY A YEAR NOW. IT'S ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE AND WILL NOT STAY UP. IF A TALL PERSON IS DRIVING YOU HAVE TO HOLD IT UP FOR THEM SO THEY CAN SEE THE ROAD. THIS IS A VERY SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD. I HAVE A 05 NIACIN MURANO AND ACCORDING TO THE FOLLOWING BLOG, SEVERAL PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. IT SHOULD BE RECALLED AS SOME HAVE SPENT 400.00 TO REPLACE IT ONLY FOR IT TO BREAK AGAIN. HTTP://WWW.NISSANFORUMS.COM/TRUCK-SUV/113557-MURANO-SUN-VISOR-FAILURE.HTML *LN

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH THE SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE BROKE AND CONTINUED TO FALL IN HER FACE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE COST TO REPAIR THE SUN VISOR WAS $400. THERE ARE NO RECALLS OR WARRANTIES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000. UPDATED 03/08/11

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS OVER A BUMP, THE SUN VISOR WOULD FALL DOWN WITHOUT ASSISTANCE. THE SUN VISOR WOULD REMAIN IN AN UPWARD POSITION WHEN SECURED WITH VELCRO STRAPS. IN ADDITION, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SENSOR WOULD NOT FUNCTION. WHILE DISPENSING FUEL THE AUTOMATIC NOZZLE CLICKED OFF CONTINUOUSLY. THERE WAS A RECALL UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 06V003000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY). THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 52,000.

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. THE SUNVISOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE WOULDN'T STAY UP AND WAS RIGHT IN MY LINE OF SIGHT. I HAD IT REPLACED AND COST NEARLY $400. NOW THE PASSENGER SIDE WON'T STAY UP EITHER. THE PRICE HAS INCREASED TO NEARLY $500!!! THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BY NISSAN. I CAN'S SAFELY DRIVE THE CAR WITH THE SUN VISOR ALWAYS IN THE DOWN POSITION. I HAVE TRIED VELCRO AND IT WON'T HOLD IT UP. I SAW ONLINE THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND NISSAN REFUSES TO HELP ANY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS EXCEPT TO PAY THE COST OF REPLACEMENT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NISSAN NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THEIR SUN VISORS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE SUN VISOR ON BOTH DRIVERS AND PASSAGER SIDE SWING DOWN AND BLOCK THE VISION OF THE DRIVER. THE COST TO REPLACE THE VISORS IS $800.00, AT THIS COST IT MAKES YOU THING NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND CHOOSES TO MAKE A PROFIT ON THESE INSTEAD ON CONSIDERING THE SAFETY ASPECT OF THEIR CUSTOMERS. I FEEL THERE SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL AFTER READING THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS. *LN

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR FELL DOWN EVERY TIME HE DROVE OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT IT WOULD COST $400 TO REPLACE THE SUN VISOR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000.

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN MURANO AND HAVE UNCOVERED A VEHICLE DEFECT THAT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THE SUN VISORS ARE A DEFECTIVE DESIGN AND KEEP FLIPPING COMPLETELY DOWN AND BLOCKING THE VIEW THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD. IN SOME OF THE MOST INOPPORTUNE TIMES, YOUR VISION GETS COMPLETELY BLOCKED UNTIL YOU FLIP IT BACK UP. THAT IS VERY DANGEROUS IN THE SNOW, RAIN, HEAVY TRAFFIC, OR AT NIGHT. SOMETIMES IT CAN DROP 2 - 3 TIMES A MINUTE. THIS IS A PROBLEM ON THOUSANDS OF 2003 TO 2007 MURANOS. REPLACING THE SUN VISOR IS PROHIBITIVELY EXPENSIVE AT $400 EACH AND SINCE THIS FLAW HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED AT ALL BY NISSAN, YOU ARE ONLY REPLACING A DEFECTIVE VISOR WITH A NEW ONE THAT WILL BECOME DEFECTIVE IN A COUPLE OF YEARS. I REPLACED MY DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR 2 YEARS AGO BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECT AND THE REPLACEMENT ONE IS NOW DROPPING...

WITHOUT WARNING, THE DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR OF MY 2005 NISSAN MURANO DISCONNECTED AND BLOCKED MY VISION WHILE DRIVING. SINCE THEN IT DOES NOT STAY IN PLACE AND IS A CONSTANT DISTURBANCE WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE IT DOES NOT STAY IN PLACE. I WAS ADVISED THAT IT IS NOT COVERED ON MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. I DID SOME INTERNET RESEARCH AND DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL CAR. IF YOU COMPLAIN ENOUGH, SOME DEALERS HAVE REPLACED IT FOR NO CHARGE. IN MY CASE I WAS GIVEN A QUOTE OF $320 TO REPLACE IT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS 2005 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH THE SUN VISOR FELL DOWN ON ITS OWN MAKING IT DIFFICULT FOR THE DRIVER TO SEE THE ROAD. HE CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS INFORMED THAT HE WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE SUN VISOR. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

THE FAILURE IS WITH MY 2005 NISSAN MURANO. THE SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE NO LONGER WORKS PROPERTY AND DROPS DOWN BLOCKING MY EYE LINE. WITHOUT HAVING IT TAPPED UP IN PLACE IT COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. NISSAN CLAIMS IT IS NOT A DEFECT ALTHOUGH THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ONLINE WITH THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. I CAN'T AFFORD $350 TO GET A NEW ONE AND NISSAN REFUSES TO HELP OUT THEIR LOYAL CUSTOMERS. A RECALL NEEDS TO HAPPEN IN ORDER TO FIX ALL OF THE VISORS. I DON'T REMEMBER THE EXACT DATE IT STARTED FALLING, SO I'M PUTTING AN ESTIMATE. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. MY DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR IS BROKEN FOR NO APPARENT REASON AND WILL NOT STAY UP. IT RANDOMLY FALLS DOWN WHILE I AM DRIVING WITH NO WARNING. I DRIVE OVER 120 MILES A DAY, AND AM SCARED THAT I AM GOING TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT. THIS PART IS ALSO $300 + TO REPLACE!! *TR

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR IS BROKEN. IT WILL NOT STAY UP OR DOWN. I HAVE READ ON LINE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN NISSAN MURANOS. I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. *TR

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN MURANO WITH A GOLD PREFERRED EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE HAS 46,000 MILES ON IT AND THE VISOR WON'T STAY UP. ACCORDING TO MY DEALER THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM BUT IT'S CONSIDERED A "TRIM" (?) ITEM AND THEREFORE NOT COVERED. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD LEAD TO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND SHOULD BE COVERED OR SUBJECT TO A RECALL. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH HE DROVE OVER A BUMP AND BOTH FRONT SUN VISORS FLIPPED DOWNWARDS. HE FLIPPED THE VISORS BACK UP INTO HOLDING POSITION, BUT AFTER DRIVING OVER ANOTHER BUMP THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE FAILURE CONTINUED TO RECUR UNTIL THE VISORS WOULD NOT LONGER REMAIN UP IN THE HOLDING POSITION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE EXAMINED FOR THE CAUSE OF FAILURE AND WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE CONTINUES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

2005 MURANO SUN VISORS BROKE AND FELL HALF WAY DOWN BLOCKING SOME OF MY DRIVING VIEW. THEY WANT OVER $325.00 FOR A NEW ONE TIMES 2 = $650.00 WITHOUT ANY ASSURANCE THAT REPLACEMENTS WILL NOT DO THE SAME. THE ONLY ANSWER I GET IS OUT OF WARRANTY. PERHAPS YOU COULD GIVE ME SOME HELP TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE SHORT OF SEWING A SNAP TO THE ROOF. THANK YOU FOR ANY COOPERATION. *TR

SUN VISOR ON DRIVER SIDE HAS FAILED CAUSING IT TO SUDDENLY DROP AND OBSTRUCT THE VIEW OF THE ROAD. *TR

PASSENGER-SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY IN THE UP, STORED POSITION. IT WILL FALL AT THE SLIGHTEST BUMP IN THE ROAD. THIS ALSO HAPPENED TO THE DRIVER-SIDE VISOR WHICH HAS SINCE BEEN REPLACED. *TR
