2007 NISSAN MURANO Wheels Problems

Driving to work in the rain the vehicle began to sway when breaks were applied. The back of the vehicle went right and the car went left. I moved to the right lane and the vehicle fishtailed! I was totally afraid that I could drive into a ditch or be killed on the highway. I drove very slowly to the repair shop, after inspection, I needed struts but then the mechanic looked further and saw that the rear k-subframe was completely corroded and unable to be welded. The one piece was completely apart from the other. A danger to drive. Once I began to look for a replacement part, I began to see how many other Murano owners have had the same issues with the subframe rusting out. This is absolutely crazy that this part is not recalled as the part is defective in the construction of it. Nissan should...

Rear subframe rusted tire bent in word

About a year ago my husband and I noticed there was alot of rust in the rear end on the sway bar and around it not to long after the sway bar looked as If it was going to come apart on the left side my husband got it to stay put for a little while but as time went on the truck just became more unsafe anytime we tried to drive it it was all over the road it's kept pulling to the left very badly we noticed that the back tires were not straight and bowing out my husband changed the front tire on the left for unrelated reasons and then the next day we was driving and the awd light started flashing we were heading home and went to take off from a red light when I hit the gas the whole rear end exploded into pieces...

The rear subframe is extremely rusted and breaking into pieces in multiple areas. The vehicle shakes upon acceleration and slowing down. Due to being lower income I cannot afford to fix the subframe (estimated to cost $400 for the the frame not including labor). Also the vacuum lines dry rotted and fell apart.

Unknown- I was driving and felt the car wobble but didn’t know what it was, when I got home noticed my back wheels ware sticking out,and I was scare,I had a mechanic look at it in my driveway because I’am afraid to drive it,and the mechanic said that it was rusted and I shouldn’t drive it cause I could cause a accident,I pick up my kids every day from school and I been asking for help picking them up,please help,this is the only car I have and my only way to bring and pick up my kids from school

The rear subframe rusted off on drivers side. I financed this car only 10 months ago and now I can not drive it. It is very dangerous to drive, and the mechanic told me I should no longer drive it because of how dangerous it is. I have seen numerous complaints about people having the same rear subframe rusting. I can not afford to get it fixed and I’m still paying on the car. I got it for $7,500 and have put over $2,000 in it. I still have $4,500 left on it. They need a recall, this is a safety hazard for not only the driver and passengers, but for civilians walking or driving by the car, which at any moment the tire can fly off. Please recall the vehicles before someone puts in a lawsuit.

REAR SUBFRAME RUSTED/ROT. UNSAFE TO DRIVE. BOTH REAR WHEEL ALIGNMENT ARE THROWN OFF AND WHEELS ARE BENT INWARDS. FURTHER DRIVING CAN CAUSE REAR SUBFRAME TO COLLAPSE AND CAN CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AND DRIVER/PASSENGER. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE MADE IMMEDIATELY TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE

TRANSMISSION WENT ONLY HAD THE SUV FOR 4 MONTHS.

BOUGHT THE CAR 5 MONTHS AGO. WAS DRIVING AWESOME. BRAND NEW TIRES! VERY WELL MAINTAINED WITH LOTS OF PAPERWORK STATING WORK DONE ON VEHICLE!..:WELL WAS DRIVING IT THE OTHER DAY WITH MY 2 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND IT STARTED TO OVER HEAT I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AFTER GOING 60 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY FOR OVER AN HOUR. I'M NOW STUCK ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY TODDLER IN THE 80 DEGREE WEATHER WHEN I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS MY RADIATOR. THE STATE POLICE NOTICE MY REAR 2 TIRES SLANTED , TOP LEANING IN BOTTOM LEANING OUT. AFTER THE CAR GETS PUT ON THE FLAT BED TOW I SPOT MY REAR CROSSMEMBER K FRAME SPLIT IN 2 SPOTS! RADIATOR WAS MY SIGN TELLING ME MY AWD IS ACTING UP SOMETHING HAPPENED. IF I WOULD HAVE HIT ONE SMALL BUMP ON THAT HIGHWAY I WOULDN'T BE HERE TO FILE THIS COMPLAINT. THIS IS...

WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO GET A LITTLE SHAKY. WHEN STOPPED AND LOOKS, NOTICE THAT THE BACK WHEELS WE'RE NOT STRAIGHT. TOOK TO A MECHANIC AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE LOWER FRAME WAS RUSTE AND FALLING TO PIECES.. RUST WAS NOT NOTICED ON ANY OTHER PART OF THE VEHICLE. CAR WAS DEEMED UNSAFE BY THE MECHANIC.

I NOTICED THE CAR HANDLED VERY POORLY IN SNOW/ICE/WET CONDITIONS OVER THE WINTER. THE CAR WAS IN THE SHOP FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND THE MECHANIC NOTICED BOTH REAR TIRES WERE WORN DOWN TO NOTHING ON THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, HE FOUND THAT THE REAR SUBFRAME HAD RUSTED THROUGH AND BROKEN INTO TWO. THE VEHICLE WAS DECLARED UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED THIS PAST SUMMER, BUT I HAVE THE SERVICE RECORDS AND I KNOW IT WAS PROPERLY MAINTAINED. THE ESTIMATED COST OF REPAIRS IS MORE THAN I CAN AFFORD ($5,000). I CONTACTED NISSAN TO SEE IF THEY WOULD PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE WITH REPAIRS AND I SPOKE WITH 3 DIFFERENT PEOPLE (FIRST CONSUMER AFFAIRS, THEN A SUPERVISOR, AND FINALLY A MANAGER), WHO ALL TOLD ME THAT THEY ARE "NOT IN A POSITION TO ASSIST BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY". THE LAST PERSON...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE SWERVED INDEPENDENTLY. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE THREADS ON BOTH REAR TIRES WERE COMPLETELY GONE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENTLY MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SUBFRAME WAS RUSTED AND CAUSED THE TIRES TO LOSE THREADING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MECHANIC CONTACTED AN UNKNOWN NISSAN DEALER WHO ADVISED THE CONTACT TO CALL THE MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THERE WERE NO WARRANTIES ON THE VEHICLE AND THE TIRES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 197,000. *TR *JS*DT*JB

I WAS PULLING OUT OF A GAS STATION WHEN A FRIEND POINTED OUT THAT THE MUFFLER/EXHAUST PIPES OF VEHICLE WERE HANGING VERY LOW TO THE GROUND. MECHANIC INSPECTED IT AND REAR SUBFRAME RUSTED THROUGH AND BROKEN. THE REAR WHEELS ARE WORN ON THE INSIDE AND ARE MISALIGNED. THEY ARE TILTING IN TOWARDS EACH OTHER. THE VEHICLE WAS DEEMED UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOT A RECALL AND THAT I WOULD NEED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT AND FOR THE REPAIR. I WAS GIVEN A CASE # AND ASKED TO PROVIDE PROOF OF OWNERSHIP. I RECENTLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM A FAMILY MEMBER. AS THE CAR WAS INOPERABLE I HAD AAA TOW IT TO THE NEAREST NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THE DEALER QUOTED ME AN ESTIMATE REPAIR COST OF $5,279; PARTS AND LABOR.

SUB FRAME RUSTED ALL THE WAY THOUGH. DEEMED NOT SAFE TO DRIVE, TIRES ARE SLANTED.

REAR SUBFRAME IS RUSTED THROUGH AND CONTROL ARMS THAT HOLD WHEELS ON ARE PULLING APART. TWO MECHANICS HAVE DEEMED THIS VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE DUE TO A RUSTED FRAME.

DRIVING ON A LOCAL HIGHWAY DOING ABOUT 35 TO 40 MPH. PUT ON BRAKES AND THE ENTIRE REAR END BEGAN TO VIBRATE AND MAKE A RUMBLING NOISE. THE REAR TIRES ARE LEANING INWARD ON BOTH SIDES OF THE VEHICLES WHICH THROWS OFF THE STABALIZATION OF THE VEHICLE MAKING IT UNSAFE AND DIFFICULT TO STEER OR STOP. THE ENTIRE STABALIZATION BAR AND THE MOUNTING BRACKETS SUPPORTING IT RUSTED THROUGH ON THE LEFT SIDE AND DISLODGED AND THE RIGHT SIDE IS READY TO DISLODGE FROM THE BODY AT ANY TIME. THERE IS NOTHING TO SUPPORT THE BAR SO IT CAN INADVENTERLY FALL AND HIT THE HIGHWAY AND DO DAMAGE TO THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE CAR OR CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO FLIP. MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THEY CALLED NISSAN AND OF COURSE NO RECALL OR ASSISTANCE TO FIX THE VEHICLE WHICH IS OVER 2000 DOLLARS. THE SUN...

THE LEFT FRONT LOWER BALL JOINT IS READY TO FALL OUT AS WELL AS THE REAR CROSSMEMBER FRAME IS BROKEN IN HALF ON THE RIGHT SIDE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN MURANO. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER (SHEEHY NISSAN IN GLEN BURNIE, MARYLAND) FOR SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE. WHEN THE CONTACT RETRIEVED THE VEHICLE, THE MULTI POINT INSPECTION REPORT STATED THAT TWO OF THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEMS FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE PREVIOUSLY OCCURRED IN 2015. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN DID NOT QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL. THE MANUFACTURED PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: [XXX]. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,785. UPDATED 11/02/17*LJ INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

MY NISSAN MURANO HAS 122,000 MILES ON CAR AND I HAVE ALREADY SPENT A LOT OF MONEY REPAIRING CVT'S, FRONT END ISSUES AND HAD TO PURCHASE A NEW TRANSMISSION. I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE AND HAD TO DRIVE SLOW ALL THE WAY TO MY HOME. NO ACCIDENT BUT NISSAN MURANO HAS A LOT OF ISSUES WITH THE FRONT WHEELS AND TRANSMISSION.

NOTICED FLUIDS ON GARAGE FLOOR UNDER MY NISSAN MURANO. UPON CHECKING FLUID LEVELS IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE POWER STEERING FLUID LEVELS THAT WERE LOW. FURTHER INVESTIGATION INDICATED THAT THE POWER STEERING HOSE WAS LEAKING. THIS HAS SEEMED TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE NISSAN FLEET AS A WHOLE, BUT AS OF YET NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN INITIATED. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION TO BE IN BECAUSE OF THE POSSIBLE ACCIDENTS THAT LOW FLUID LEVEL POSES AND THE POSSIBILITY OF INITIATING A FIRE. *TR
