Nissan Murano Reviews

I owned a 2015 Nissan Murano with just 87,000 miles on it — and the CVT completely failed. The dealership quoted me $10,000 to replace it. Nissan’s infamous CVT issues are real. Never buying a Nissan again.

I purchased a brand-new Nissan Murano SL trim package in 2021. Less than 4 years later my leather driver's seat is ripping. I've had other vehicles with leather trim & never had this problem before. I think Nissan is using poor quality/thin materials in their vehicles. I've been quoted over $1000 for OE replacement which is crazy for a 4-year-old vehicle that should not be having this issue. I had a Sante Fe for 10 years & the leather never ripped! I've always liked Nissan vehicles & have also owned an Altima, but now after spending nearly $50k on this vehicle I'll be looking elsewhere for my next SUV.

I bought it brand new October 2018 and have maintained it very well. We use synthetic oil & do have the OLF & tire rotation every 5,000 miles. Plus we follow normal maintenance guidelines. I’m a fast driver and love all the extra standard features. Especially the front camera, sound system. It been a great car.

I have a 2017 Nissan Murano that leaks water into the interior. This vehicle has 42K miles. The drainage in the front drivers side was corrected in August of 2019 when the vehicle had 27K miles. Vehicle was bought new in 2017. This is apparently a problem many people have had according to reviews I have recently read. Why is there not a recall by Nissan to correct this issue? It’s a known problem!

2023 Nissan Murano and had issue day 1 of owning the car. It’s been in 4 times in 3 months. I submitted to Consumer Affairs I have a lemon. Way too much $ for how cheap this car is. Bad brakes, technology doesn’t work and CarPlay is AWFUL! The car says I’m about to get in a car crash on the hwy with no one around me. I have driven Nissan for over 20 years and I cannot wait to never drive a Nissan again! Worst experience with this awful poorly unsafe my made car! Not worth risking your life getting behind the wheel! So disappointing and consumer affairs opened a case. The bumper was not put on at manufacturer right, 3 thing inside the car had to be replaced… overall horrible car!!!

We purchased a 2016 Nissan Murano December 21, 2022 with only 67k miles on it. Two months later the dealership tells us that we need a new transmission. After spending $20k on the the vehicle this is very upsetting. Consumer affairs for nissan said that since the vehicle has only been to the dealership a "few times" before we purchased it and since the warranty stopped at 60k miles, they cannot help.

2019 Murano - Radio comes on when car is parked. 10 - 15 seconds. Working in the garage it turns on by itself. No one has the fob or is near it? Scared the heck out of my wife. I hear it several times a week. Mentioned it when with first service. Told to see if it continues. It does.

Apparently Nissan made a defective transmission for the 2010 Nissan Murano. Do not buy this car. They said it is a known issue for the transmission just to shut off and they will not repair it. My 2010 Nissan Murano's transmission shut down on me on the highway. Thankfully my children were not in the car with me. I called Nissan Consumer Affairs and they said there is nothing they can do and did not give a care. Please do not buy Nissan. They are too expensive to fix their known defective transmission ($5300).

I was told I need a new transmission after having the car for 2 years. The dealership is asking for 13,000 dollars to fix my car. I wish I had of know Nissan Muranos is known to have transmission problems. I been going back and forth with Carshield over a month. Worst experience ever.

My transmission went out at only 136,000 miles. Every place I called to help me stated that this is a VERY common problem. It is extremely difficult if not impossible to find a used transmission and even if you do it is difficult to reprogram it for your vehicle. The only place to get a new transmission is from Nissan which is EXTREMELY expensive! You also have to pay for reprogramming and use ONLY Nissan fluids. Nissan is aware of this problem and has not offered to correct their problem.
