2006 NISSAN MURANO Seats Problems

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? -Front Driver Seat and the rear subframe. Yes How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? -Seat moves around while driving. The subframe is bad, which if it broke could be dangerous. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? -No, my husband is my mechanic Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? - No Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? -No. They seat was like that when we bought the car in 2021. The subframe was noticed last night.

My drivers side seat started wobbling and it feels dangerous in case of any kind of crash. The other day I pulled into driveway and heard a pop and the side where the buttons are popped out and I cannot find one of them. The part where the buttons for seat adjustment just fell out and I pushed back but still afraid in case of collision. I have read on plenty of forums where the seat frame breaks. I am older and I cant afford to fix it but I am afraid to drive it

Driver seat has come loose and no longer anchored to the frame.

Normal driving and the seat broke and has been for several years causing instability and oscillation. Recently my steering wheel will not align, brought it to a mechanic that informed me the rear sub-frame is cracked on both sides causing the tires to malign, creating un-even wear on the back tires and a hazard to drive.

*** DRIVER SEAT BOLT BROKEN AND UNSTABLE *** TEMPERATURE GAUGE NEEDLE MOVES UP TOWARD "OVERHEAT" WHEN CRUISING AT 50MPH *** TRANSMISSION STALLED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED AFTER 60K MILES {ODOMETER READING]

THE LEFT, DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT SEAT OF MY 2006 NISSAN MURANO BROKE WHILE MY SON WAS DRIVING. THE SUPPORT BRACKET CRACKED COMPLETELY, LEAVING THE SEAT TILTED DOWNWARD SEVERAL INCHES ON THE LEFT SIDE. THE CAR IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE IN THIS CONDITION BECAUSE THE SEAT IS BOUNCING AT AN ODD ANGLE. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE OF THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE NISSAN MURANO. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT AN NHTSA RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED.

NOT SURE WHEN IT HAPPENED BUT SEAT FRAME BROKE, NOW I WOBBLE BACK AND FOR WHILE DRIVING.. NO RECALL FOR THIS. RIDICULOUS!!! SCARY AS [XXX] ... NOT ONLY THAT, I HAVE LIKE 100'S OF STORIES COPIED HERE OF THE EXACT SAME THING. I WANT TO KNOW WHY NISSAN HAS NOT RECALLED THE FRAME FOR THIS VEHICLE? I WILL NEVER BUY A NISSAN AGAIN!!!! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING, THE DRIVER'S SEAT SUPPORT BRACKET CRACKED AND THE SEAT ROCKED AND WAS UNSTABLE. THE SEAT WAS REPAIRED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT THE REPAIR LASTED THREE MONTHS BEFORE IT CRACKED AND SNAPPED AGAIN. THE MANUFACTURER RESPONDED TO A LETTER FROM THE CONTACT AND RESPONDED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL; THEREFORE, THEY COULD NOT ASSIST WITH THE REPAIR COSTS. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT REFUSED TO PAY $2,000 FOR THE REPAIRS AND THERE WAS ONLY A 90 DAY WARRANTY ON THE PART, BUT NOT THE LABOR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000.

SEAT SUPPORT BROKEN IN DRIVERS SEAT. UNDER THE DRIVER'S SEAT, LEFT REAR SUPPORT BRACKET IS BROKEN. I WAS DRIVING MAKING A 30 DEGREE RIGHT HAND TURN MOVING AT ABOUT 15 - 20 MILES AN HOUR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT FRACTURED DUE TO A FAILURE WITH THE ANCHOR/BRACKET ON THE REAR LEFT SIDE OF THE DRIVER'S SEAT. UNIVERSAL NISSAN (12785 S ORANGE BLOSSOM TRAIL, ORLANDO, FL 32837, (407) 926-7000) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND AN APPOINTMENT WAS MADE FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: PE08065 (SEATS); HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED THE SAME FAILURE AS THE INVESTIGATION FROM NHTSA. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 143,000.

SEAT SUPPORT IS BROKEN ON THE DRIVERS SIDE CAUSING THE DRIVER MY SON, TO SHIFT TO THE LEFT WHILE DRIVING THE CAR. A DEALER SOLD THIS USED CAR AS IS AND COVERED A WOODEN BLOCK THAT SUPPORTED THE SEAT WITH CLOTH TO DISGUISE THE PROBLEM. AFTER LOOKING AT THIS SITE I FOUND OVER 700 COMPLAINTS. THE SEAT IS COMPROMISED AND IT'S A MANUFACTURERS SAFETY DEFECT. IF AN ACCIDENT WERE TO OCCUR THE DRIVER COULD BE THROWN INTO THE DASH OR WORST BECAUSE OF A ALREADY BROKEN DRIVER SEAT SUPPORT. WHY SHOULD CONSUMERS NOT BE MADE AWARE OF THIS SAFETY CONCERN AND THE MANUFACTURE REQUIRED TO DO A PROPER FIX? IS THE SEAT BELT DESIGNED TO HOLD THE PASSENGER AND THE SEAT IN PLACE DURING AN ACCIDENT?

BROKEN SEAT FRAME - DRIVERS SEAT (LEFT REAR) WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, I HEARD A POP, THE NEXT THINK I KNEW THE SEAT & I WAS LEANING TO THE LEFT WOBBLING BACK AND FOURTH. CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED..

THE BRAKET ON THE DRIVER SEAT BROKE AND THE SEAT IS LOPSIDEED AND CAN NOT DRIVE THE CAR, ARE THE REPAIRS COVERD BY THE MANUFACTURER?

I'VE BEEN HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE POWER DRIVER'S SEAT IN MY '03 NISSAN MURANO. IT IS LOOSE AND SHIFTS SIDE TO SIDE WHEN I TURN CORNERS. I CONTACTED MY DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THE LIFTER LINK SLIDE ASSEMBLY WAS BROKEN AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED AT THE TUNE OF $600. THERE IS A TSB (TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN) OUT ON THIS EXACT PROBLEM. SINCE MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY, NISSAN NORTH AMERICA HAS REFUSED TO FIX IT AND THEREFORE, OWN UP TO THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I WOULD HATE TO SEE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN DURING A CRASH.. IF YOU HAVE HAD THIS SAME THING HAPPEN WITH YOUR NISSAN POWER SEAT,

I'VE BEEN HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE POWER DRIVER'S SEAT IN MY '06 NISSAN MURANO. IT IS LOOSE AND SHIFTS SIDE TO SIDE WHEN I TURN CORNERS. I CONTACTED MY DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THE LIFTER LINK SLIDE ASSEMBLY WAS BROKEN AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED AT THE TUNE OF $600. THERE IS A TSB (TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN) OUT ON THIS EXACT PROBLEM. SINCE MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY, NISSAN NORTH AMERICA HAS REFUSED TO FIX IT AND THEREFORE, OWN UP TO THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I WOULD HATE TO SEE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN DURING A CRASH. I FILED A COMPLAINT IF YOU HAVE HAD THIS SAME THING HAPPEN WITH YOUR NISSAN

DRIVERS SIDE POWER SEAT BROKEN. THIS IS THE SECOND MURANO I HAVE OWNED WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE NOTICED ONLINE THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON OCCURRENCE. DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE.

BROKEN DRIVERS SIDE (LEFT) SEAT LIFTER BRACKET

THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BRACKET IS BROKEN AND THE SEAT SWAYS FROM SIDE TO SIDE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS PART. THE COST IS ENORMOUS AND SHOULD NOT BE THE BURDEN OF THE CONSUMER. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN.

FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BRACKET IS BROKEN AND SEAT WOBBLES. THE SEAT COULD BREAK FREE IN AN ACCIDENT AND CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY. THIS IS A SAFETY-RELATED ISSUE AND NISSAN SHOULD DO THE RIGHT THING BY ISSUING A RECALL.

DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT FRAME SNAPPED WHILE GETTING INTO MY CAR. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS THE SEAT WOBBLES AND IS NOW NOT SECURE TO THE VEHICLE. I FEEL I MAY BECOME A HUMAN MISSILE IF I WERE TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT.

THE DRIVERS METAL SEAT BRACKET UNDER THE SEAT SNAPPED WHEN GETTING IN MY CAR. THE SEAT IS WOBBLY AND MOVES WITH BRAKING OR ACCELERATING. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT PART OF A RECALL AND WOULD COST $1500.00 TO BUY A NEW BRACKET. A WHOLE NEW SEAT WOULD BE $5000.00. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS FROM OWNERS OF THIS MODEL ABOUT THE FRONT SEAT BRACKET BREAKING. IF I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT MY SEAT WOULD DEFINITELY COME LOOSE FROM MY CAR WITH ME IN THE SEAT. I CAN'T AFFORD A $1500 BRACKET. WHY WOULD THAT BRACKET COST THAT MUCH?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DRIVER SEAT BEGAN TO SHIFT FORWARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SEAT FRAME FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 154,000. ....UPDATED 08/08/16 *BF THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONSUMER, THE ENTIRE SEAT AND BASE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $900.00. UPDATED 08/10/16.*JB

FRONT DRIVER SIDE SEAT ADJUSTER FRAME BROKE WHILE DRIVING. SEAT WAS WOBBLING LIKE A ROLLER COASTER RIDE FROM RIGHT TO LEFT. CONTACTED NISSIAN CUSTOMER SERVICE AND NOTHING THEY CAN TO ABOUT IT. CONTACTED NISSAN OF BURLINGAME, CA AND THE SEAT ADJUSTER FRAME PART RUNS $1450.00-$1600.00 PLUS INSTALLATION. SUCH A DANGEROUS ACCIDENT PRONE DEFECT SHOULD BE ON A RECALL LIST. NISSAN ALSO SAID THEY COULD NOT HELP OUT FINANCIALLY ON ANY REPAIR WORK/INSTALLATION FEE'S TO REPLACE DEFECTIVE SEAT FRAME. THEY WERE CURT AND ABRUPT. I MENTIONED I HAD READ ON CAR REPAIR COMPLAINT SITES THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AND WAS TOLD THEY DON'T READ CAR REPAIR SITES.........

DRIVERS BROKE AWAY FROM RAIL WHEN APPLYING BRAKES TO AVOID FRONT-END COLLISION. NISSAN WILL NOT FORCE THE OEM JOHNSON TO MAKE REPAIRS. NOT GOOD PR. NISSAN WILL NOT REPAIR, EITHER.

A BRACKET UNDER THE DRIVER SEAT LEFT REAR SIDE SNAPPED. IT OCCURED IN THE PROCESS OF PULLING OFF TO DRIVE.

FRONT DRIVER SIDE SEAT IS BROKEN. IT LEANS TO THE LEFT . THIS IS SO DANGEROUS . SUCH A SAFETY HAZARD. AND NISSAN CORPORATE WAS NO HELP. TOLD ME I HAD TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSE TEST. AND HAVE THEM SEND IT IN AND THEY WOULD LOOK AT IT. AND WOULD GET BACK TO ME.. NOT A HAPPY PERSON.

MY 2006 NISSAN MURANO SEAT FRAME IS BROKEN. I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY TOLD ME THEIR IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2006 NISSAN MURANO. 1000'S OF COMPLAINTS AND NO RECALL YET. THIS IS VERY SAD WHEN A COMPANY CAN'T STAND BEHIND A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. GOD FORBID SOMEONE GETS INTO AN ACCIDENT. FIRST THING THAT WILL HAPPEN IS ME OR SOMEONE WITH SAME PROBLEM FLYING OUT THE WINDOW BC OF A DEFECTIVE SEAT FRAME. I'VE PURCHASED ABOUT 5 NISSANS IN MY LIFE TIME. NEVER AGAIN WILL I PURCHASE FROM NISSAN. A DEFECT SEAT SHOULD BE A RECALL.

DRIVERS SEAT FRAME HAS BROKE DURING OPERATION MULTIPLE TIMES AFTER REPAIR. MOST RECENTLY ON A BUSY CITY INTERSTATE. TOTAL COST OF REPAIRS HAS BEEN $360. NOT ONLY HAS THIS BEEN A SAFETY ISSUE WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, BUT A FINANCIAL BURDEN AS WELL AS COMFORT ISSUE WHEN DRIVING. NISSAN AND NHTSA ARE AWARE OF THE DEFECT YET FAIL TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM OR ISSUE A RECALL.

LEFT REAR SEAT BRACKET BROKE

DRIVER SEAT REAR LEFT BRACKET BROKE AFTER 134,000 MILES

SEAT SUDDENLY DROPPED TO THE DRIVERS SIDE IN THE VEHICLE AGAINST THE DOOR. THIS SUDDEN CHANGE IN POSITION CAUSED ME TO SWERVE THE VEHICLE NEARLY MISSING THE CAR NEXT TO ME IN THE OTHER LANE. IF THIS SEAT WAS TO FAIL COMPLETELY I COULD HAVE BEEN THROWN BACKWARDS IN THE VEHICLE LOSING THE ABILITY TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE AND THIS WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN A CRASH OF THE VEHICLE. THIS VEHICLE IS USED BY A 160 POUND WOMAN AND EVEN THOUGH HAS SOME AGE HAS ONLY 43,000 ORIGINAL MILES ON THE ODOMETER. IT IS USED STRICTLY FOR PLEASURE DRIVING ON THE WEEKENDS. THIS FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE TRAVELLING ON A HIGHWAY AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND ROUNDING A CORNER. UPON REVIEWING THE MANY MANY THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN WRITTEN UP ON THE INTERNET ABOUT HOW PERVASIVE THIS PROBLEM IS THERE IS NO REASON THAT A POOR DESIGN...

MY MURANO DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BROKE OFF THE LOWER LEFT METAL PART, THE SEAT NOW IS NOT WELDED TOGETHER PROPERLY AND ITS NOW UNATTACHED AND MOVES AROUND AS I DRIVE. I HAVE READ ABOUT OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS HAPPEN TO OTHER VEHICLES ONLY NISSAN. THEY REALLY NEED TO TAKE CARE OF THIS ISSUE SINCE IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO BE FIXED! I JUST HAPPEN TO GET IN THE VEHICLE AND OUT OF NO WHERE WHEN I SAT DOWN I JUST FELT THE SEAT CRACK AND LOWER TO ONE SIDE. I AM 140LBS. NOT VERY BIG AND PETITE, SO THIS IS HARD TO UNDERSTAND WHY IT WOULD BREAK LIKE THIS.

THE LEFT SIDE OF THE DRIVER SEAT FRAME HAS DETACHED FROM THE CAR FLOOR MOUNT AS OF APPROXIMATELY FOUR MONTHS AGO; SINCE THEN, THE SEVERITY OF THE DETACHMENT HAS INCREASED AND THE SEAT MOVES UP AND DOWN. I HAVE BEEN ADVISED BY A LOCAL MECHANIC AND NISSAN THAT WELDING THE SEAT FRAME TO THE FLOOR FRAME WILL ONLY TEMPORARILY FIX THE ISSUE. NISSAN STATES A NEW FRAME IS REQUIRED ($1,200 + LABOR). NOT HAVING MY SEAT CORRECTLY ATTACHED TO THE CAR PRESENTS A SAFETY HAZARD IN THE EVENT OF AN AUTO ACCIDENT. THE FRAME HAS DETACHED BASED ON NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR; THERE WAS NO ABNORMAL USE, IN FACT THE CAR ONLY HAS 110,409 MILES. NISSAN STATES THIS IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY OR RECALL. I DO NOT FEEL I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY ($1,200 + LABOR) TO REMEDY GIVEN THE POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD (IF AN ACCIDENT OCCURS).

DRIVER SIDE SEAT FRAME OR BRACKET BROKEN RESULTING IN LOOSE SEAT THAT OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING AND ALMOST RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT FRAME OR BRACKET ON THE LEFT SIDE REAR PART OF THE FRAME BROKE RESULTING IN THE SEAT DROPPING ABOUT 3 INCHES DOWN ON THE BACK LEFT SIDE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ALTERNATOR FAILED WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO EXPERIENCE A COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER. THE BRAKE AND BATTERY LIGHTS ILLUMINATED WITHIN TWO MILES OF THE FAILURE OCCURRING. IN ADDITION, THE DRIVER SEAT MOUNT DETACHED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALTERNATOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED TWO TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE SEAT WAS WELDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

WHILE DRIVING THE DRIVER SEAT DROPPED DOWN. UPON CHECKING WITH A MECHANIC HE STATED THAT THE SUPPORT SYSTEM BROKE. THIS CAUSED THE SEAT TO DROP ON ONE SIDE. FROM HIS INSPECTION IT APPEARS THAT THE METAL USED WAS NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO SUPPORT NORMAL USE. I WAS NOT AWARE OF ANY PROBLEM WITH THE SEAT UNTIL IT SUDDENLY BROKE. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ THIS APPARENTLY IS A PROBLEM WITH THE 2006 MURANO SL AND NISSAN SHOULD HAVE WARNED OWNERS OF THIS POSSIBLE PROBLEM.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BROKE THE BASE OF THE SEAT, THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE THEIR DEFECTIVE SEATS. I CAN PURCHASE A SEAT FOR 1800.00 PLUS THE COST OF INSTALLATION. NISSAN HAS REDESIGNED THE SEATS TO MAKE THEM STRONGER.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORKING ONE EVENING IN MY 2006 NISSAN MURANO AT 60 MPH. DURING THAT DRIVE I HEARD A NOISE AND THAT'S WHEN HALF OF THE SEAT FELL DOWN TOWARDS THE LEFT SIDE. I DROVE HOME ROCKING FROM SIDE TO SIDE WHICH MADE MY DRIVE HOME A LITTLE PAINFUL WHEN I HIT A BUMP.

SEAT HAS BROKEN LOOSE ON LEFT SIDE AND ROCKS SIDE TO SIDE. I HAVE CONTACTED BOTH THE DEALER AND NISSAN CORPORATE AND BEEN TOLD THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANT AN THEREFORE THEY WOULD DO NOTHING.

DRIVER'S SEAT ROCKS BACK AND FORTH AS IF IT'S OFF THE TRACK. VERY DANGEROUS!

DRIVER SEAT FRAME (REAR) HAS BROKEN.

SEAT BROKE, WHY IS THIS THERE NO RECALL ON A SEAT BREAKING? IT'S THE DRIVER SEAT! HOW WOULD YOU LIKE YOUR SEAT IN YOU CAR JUST TO DROP TO ONE SIDE FOR NO REASON? NISSAN SHOULD NOT SKIMP ON SOMETHING THAT YOU SIT IN WHILE DRIVING!

I NOTICED WHILE TURNING A CORNER THAT MY SEAT COMPLETELY LIFTED UP ON ONE SIDE, I BROUGHT IT TO AN AUTO BODY SHOP WHERE THEY TOLD ME IT HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY WELDED AND THE WELD BROKE, THEY REWELDED IT AND NOW IT IS BROKEN AGAIN, IT HAS BEEN LESS THAN A YEAR SINCE IT WAS WELDED. I FEAR THAT IN THE EVENT OF A SERIOUS CRASH I COULD POSSIBLY BE EJECTED FROM THE CAR, I AM NOT HAPPY THAT THERE IS NOTHING BEING DONE BY NISSAN ABOUT THIS, THIS IS MY 3RD NISSAN AND THE FIRST WITH A SERIOUS PROBLEM I WOULD HATE TO HAVE TO BUY A NEW CAR AND HAVE IT NOT BE A NISSAN BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT FIXING THIS PROBLEM. *TR

DRIVER SEAT BROKE DURING DRIVING ON HIGHWAY COMING AROUND A CURVE. THE MOVEMENT WAS QUICK, HAD TO HOLD ONTO STEERING WHEEL TO MAINTAIN CONTROL. TOOK NEXT EXIT OFF TO GATHER WHAT JUST HAPPEN. THAT'S WHEN I ROCK THE SEAT AND KNEW IT WAS BROKEN. I WAS DRIVING BACK FROM OUT OF TOWN AND HAD OVER 140 MILES TO MAKE IT HOME. I HAD TO DRIVE WITH CAUTION, BECAUSE I WASN'T FOR SURE IF THE BACK WOULD FALL BACK INTO THE REAR SEAT. MY PASSENGER GOOGLE FOR INFORMATION ON YOUTUBE AND FOUND THIS HAD HAPPENED BEFORE WITH OTHER MURANO. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT ISSUED ANY RECALL ON A DEFECTS WITH THEIR SEATS. NISSAN HAS NOT INFORMED ME ON ANY RECALL WITH THIS VEHICLE. SOME TYPE OF ASSISTANCE WITH THIS MAJOR EQUIPMENT NEED TO BE ADDRESS QUICKLY. DRIVING WITH A SEAT FALLING FROM YOU CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURIES TO THE INDIVIDUAL AND...

I WAS DRIVING AND I STOP IN A RED LIGHT . A CAR HIT ME IN THE BACK AND I FEEL THE SEAT WENT DOWN FROM ONE SIDE. PL EASE THEY NEED TO CHECK THIS. AND ALSO. *TR

I BOUGHT THE CAR USED IN 2010 AND BY 2011 THE SEAT HAD LOCKED IN POSITION AND BROUGHT IT IN TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO GET IT REPAIRED SINCE I BOUGHT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM WAS NOT COVERED IN THE WARRANTY BUT THEY WOULD FIX IT FOR $1300 AND I CHOSE AT THAT TIME NOT TO GET IT FIXED, NOT KNOWING THAT THERE WAS A DEFECT IN THE SEAT FRAME DESIGN BY NISSAN. UPON RESEARCH LATER, I FOUND OUT THAT YEAR MODEL AND MAKE HAD A DEFECTIVE SEAT FRAME AND IT WOULD EVENTUALLY BREAK ON ONE SIDE. SOMETIME IN 2013 IT SURE ENOUGH BROKE AND WHEN I WENT TO RENEW MY INSPECTION STICKER LAST WEEK I WAS TOLD THAT I WAS REJECTED BECAUSE OF THE SEAT MOVEMENT. I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND ASKED IF THEY COULD HELP ME OUT IN ANY WAY TO HELP...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD A LOUD ABNORMAL SOUND AND THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT BRACKET FRACTURED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE SEAT BRACKET FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 65 MPH WE HEARD A LOUD POP AND THE DRIVER SEAT STARTED SINKING TO THE BACK LEFT MY HUSBAND AND I GOT SO SCARED BECAUSE HE COULD NOT REACH THE PEDAL OR THE BREAK WHEN THIS HAPPENED. WE WERE IN THE CAR WITH 2 SMALL CHILDREN. HE PUSHED HIMSELF AS MUCH AS HE COULD PRACTICALLY SEATING IN THE AIR OVER THE SEAT TO REACH THE PEDALS TO GET OFF THE FREEWAY. I CAN SAY THAT WE HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED SOMETHING SO SCARY AND DANGEROUS WE COULD OF CRASH. I CONTACTED NISSAN USA AND EXPLAINED THE ENTIRE INCIDENT AND THEY ASKED ME TO TAKE IT TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP TO ACCESS THE DAMAGE. I WENT IN THE NEXT DAY ONLY FOR THEM TO TELL ME THAT IT WAS $1,400 TO REPAIR THE SEAT FRAME. THE WORST WAS THE MECHANIC ADMITTING THAT THIS HAPPENS OFTEN IN...

DRIVING ON I95 AND HEAR A POP AND THE DRIVER'S SEAT SHIFTED ABOUT 5 DEGREES TO THE LEFT AND THE BACK LEFT CORNER DROPPED. WHEN I TURNED TO THE RIGHT, IT FELT LIKE THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SEAT WOULD RAISE UP THEN DROP BACK DOWN AS I COMPLETED THE TURN. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE BEL AIR (MD) NISSAN DEALERSHIP THE FOLLOWING MONDAY. THEY FOUND THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT BOTTOM WELD HAD BROKEN CAUSING THE SEAT FAME TO BEND AND SLIT. THEY INSTALLED GUSSET AND WELDED. COST $757.08. I CONTACTED NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE TELLING NISSAN I THOUGHT THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE AND THE SEAT FRAME ON AN 8 YEAR OLD CAR WITH LESS THAN 81,000 MILES SHOULD NOT BREAK UNLESS IT WAS UNDER DESIGNED OR WAS DEFECTIVELY MADE. NISSAN ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER OF 16837975 AND SAID THEY WOULD GET BACK TO ME. THEY GOT BACK TO...
