STRUCTURE:BODY
Potential Consequences:
THE PHOTO SHOWS HOW THE SUN REFLECTS OFF THE RIDGELINE OF THE HOOD AT THE BASE OF THE WINDSHIELD IN SUCH A WAY AS TO PARTIALLY BLIND THE DRIVER. THIS PARTICULAR IMAGE IS NOT DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER (HARD TO CAPTURE WHILE DRIVING), BUT IT DOES SHOW THE ANGLE OF THE REFLECTION. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME ON SUNNY DAYS, DEPENDING ON THE HOUR AND DIRECTION OF TRAVEL RELATIVE TO THE SUN (SEEMS TO OCCUR MOST OFTEN WHEN THE SUN IS OVERHEAD AND JUST BEHIND THE CAR). IT IS A SIGNIFICANT DESIGN FLAW. IF THERE AREN'T CASES WHERE THE REFLECTION HAS CAUSED AN ACCIDENT, I'D BE SURPRISED, BUT I'M HOPING ENOUGH PEOPLE WILL COMPLAIN TO THE NHTSA THAT NISSAN WILL BE CALLED TO ACCOUNT. I JUST HOPE IT DOESN'T TAKE A DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY TO INITIATE CORRECTIVE ACTION ON NISSAN'S PART.

WHILE DRIVING 4 LANE DEVIDED HIGHWAY AT NIGHT WITH NO TRAFFIC, LARGE PLASTIC TRIM PIECES STARTED FLYING OFF. I WAS ABLE TO STOP & WITH MY POLICE MAGLITE CONFIRMED I HAD NOT HIT ANYTHING. THE WHEEL TRIM PIECE PASSENGER FRONT CAME OFF & FLEW UP INTO THE REAR WHEEL WELL, KNOCKING IT LOSE AS WELL. ON THE SAME TRIP, A PIECE CAME LOSE ON I-95 AT NIGHT. I STOPPED & PULLED THE CLANGING PIECE THE REST OF THE WAY OFF TO AVOID DAMAGING THE PAINT. IT WASN'T WORTH RISKING MY LIFE. CHECKING LATER A BLACK VENT COVER ON THE FRONT BUMPER HAD COME OFF ALONG WITH AN ACCESS PANEL ON THE BUMPER. I DON'T RATTLE EASILY DRIVING BUT IT SHOOK ME UP A BIT, AN INEXPERIENCED DRIVER WOULD HAVE A WRECK. BUDGET RENT A CAR HERNDON VA INSISTS I HAD AN ACCIDENT, I DID NOT. I HAVE PICS & BELIEVE THIS WAS ACTUALLY PRIOR DAMAGE THAT WAS NOT PROPERLY REPAIRED. IN SHORT I WAS RENTED A COSMETICLY REPAIRED DAMAGED CAR, PUTTING CUSTOMERS AT RISK. IN CASE IT'S A DESIGN FLAW, I THOUGHT IT SHOULD BE CALLED OUT. I DID NOTICE TWO DESIGN ISSUES I BELIEVE MAY CAUSE DRIVERS PROBLEMS. IN BOTH CASES THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN NORMALLY ON CLEAR OR MODERATE CONDITIONS. ONE OF THE PHOTOS SHOWS THE CLEAR TAPE CONSISTENT WITH A HEADLIGHT HAVING BEEN REPLACED.

Potential Consequences:
UNDER CERTAIN LIGHTING CONDITIONS FROM THE SUN, A STRONG GLARE CAN APPEAR AND COME THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD AND INTO THE DRIVER'S AND/OR PASSENGER'S EYESIGHT. THIS IS CAUSED BY THE DESIGN OF THE HOOD AND WHERE IT DIPS DOWN NEAR THE FRONT EDGE OF THE WINDSHIELD. THERE IS ABOUT A 5" WIDE AREA THAT SPANS THE WITH OF THE HOOD, AROUND THE LOWER SECTION OF THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE READ OF OTHERS HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE AND THE LIGHT CAN BE 'BLINDING' AT TIMES LIKE THE LIGHT REFLECTING OFF A MIRROR ON A BRIGHT SUNNY DAY. FOR SAFETY REASONS, I HAVE DECIDED TO COAT THIS AREA OF THE HOOD WITH EITHER A MATTE FINISHED VINYL OR A MATTE FINISHED PLASTI-DIP SPRAY. I AM HOPING THIS WILL ALLEVIATE/ELIMINATE THE DANGERS OF THIS GLARE THAT CAN HAPPEN. ** TO NOTE, I HAVE READ OF OTHERS EXPRESSING THEIR CONCERNS WITH THIS ISSUE ON AUTOMOTIVE FORUMS SO I KNOW IT IS MORE COMMON THAN ORIGINALLY THOUGHT

TO BEST OF OUR KNOWLEDGE NOTHING HIT THE WINDOW, NO CAR WAS ON EITHER SIDE OF US. PIECES OF GLASS CUT PASSENGER, BUT LUCKILY NONE GOT INTO EYES OF PASSENGER OR DRIVER.

TOOK VEHICLE TO A DEALER [ TRAVELLING , SO NOT SELLING DEALER]. DEALER NOTIFIED MANUFACTURER OF PROBLEM AND REPORT OF INCIDENT. MANUFACTURER RESPONDED THAT SINCE ALL PIECES OF GLASS COULD NOT BE RECOVERED, THEY COULD NOT REASSEMBLE ENTIRE WINDOW, THEREFOR IMPOSSIBLE TO TEST GLASS FOR DEFECTS. YET THERE WAS LARGE AMOUNT OF GLASS INSIDE OF VEHICLE. OWNER STATED THAT BY THAT REASONING NO SHATTERED WINDOW WOULD EVER BE INVESTIGATED, SO HOW WOULD ANYONE KNOW IF DEFECTIVE? CONCERN IS WITH REMAINING WINDOWS IN SAME VEHICLE AS WELL AS OTHERS MFG AT SAME TIME. MIGHT SOMETHING , UNBEKNOWN TO OWNER , HAVE STRUCK SUBJECT WINDOW PREVIOUSLY WHILE PARKED UNATTENDED, LEAVING NO MARK, BUT WEAKENING GLASS ALLOWING FUTURE SUDDEN SHATTER ? MAYBE. BUT POSSIBILITY ALSO EXISTS OF DEFECTIVE GLASS OR INSTALLATION DURING ASSEMBLY, BUT MANUFACTURER REFUSED TO INVESTIGATE THAT POSSIBILITY REPEATING THAT THEY WOULD NEED EVERY PIECE OF GLASS[IMPOSSIBLE].

Potential Consequences:
NISSAN MURANO 2016 AND ON OUR PREVIOUSLY OWNED 2014 PATHFINDER, WHEN STATIONARY, THE POWERED BACK LIFTGATE CAN REVERT DIRECTION WHEN IT'S AUTOMATICALLY OPENING TO AUTOMATICALLY CLOSING WHEN THERE'S ACCUMULATED SNOW OR HEAVY SNOWFALL, WHEN THERE'S WEIGHT. THE FORCE FOR IT'S POWERED CLOSING IS ENOUGH TO PINCH SOMEONE BETWEEN CAR OR TO HIT THEIR HEAD. NISSAN HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THIS IS BY DESIGN AND "NO REPAIR OPTION" BOTH AT DEALER AND WITH MY CALL WITH ANDREA FROM NISSAN NORTH AMERICA'S CUSTOMER CARE DEPARTMENT. HOWEVER, IT IS A DANGER. IN OUR CASE, THE FORCE OF IT COMING DOWN AND MY WIFE STANDING UP AFTER PUTTING IN GROCERY, NOT REALIZING THE GATE IS COMING DOWN ON HER, RESULTED IN HER HITTING HER HEAD ON THE LIFT GATE COMING DOWN AND CAUSED INJURY TO HER HEAD AND HER HEAD TO SWELL. THERE ARE ALSO OTHER COMPLAINTS OF SIMILAR SITUATION ONLINE PER BELOW. IT IS A ACTUAL DANGER AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED BY NISSAN. IT SHOULD NOT COME DOWN BUT INSTEAD SHOULD JUST STOP. IT CAN BE EASILY REPRODUCED AND WE HAVE VIDEO TO SHOW HOW IT CAN BE REPRODUCED WHEN THERE'S WEIGHT ON THE LIFTGATE SUCH AS ENOUGH SNOW ACCUMULATION ON IT.

Potential Consequences:
MY SIX-MONTH OLD 2016 NISSAN MURANO PLATINUM HAD SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION OF MOON ROOF WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY IN GOOD WEATHER. THERE WERE NO CARS AROUND ME AND NO OVERHEAD PASS. THERE WERE NO BUMPS IN THE ROAD. I SAW NO ROCKS OR ANYTHING COMING TOWARD THE CAR. THERE WAS NO PREVIOUS DAMAGE. I HEARD A SNAP SOUND AND A LOUD BANG LIKE A GUNSHOT OR BOMB. IT SCARED ME. I DIDNT KNOW WHAT HAD HAPPENED UNTIL I WAS OFF THE FREEWAY AND CHECKED MY CAR OUT. THE DEALER WILL NOT PAY FOR IT. THEY SAY IT WAS A ROCK. THERE WAS NO ROCK SEEN AND NO ROCK FOUND IN THE HOLE ON TOP OF MY CAR/MOONROOF. RESEARCH ONLINE SHOWS THAT MANY PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD ARE REPORTING THIS HAPPENING FOR NISSAN AND OTHER CAR MAKES. ALL THE PICTURES AND THE STORIES REPORTED ARE THE SAME. I TOOK PICS. CAR MAKERS ARE USING CHEAPER, THINNER GLASS FOR MOON/SUN ROOFS TO KEEP DECENT MILEAGE. THE GLASS CAN BE INSTALLED WRONG, TEMPERED WRONG OR IS NOT FITTED WELL CAUSING IT TO HAVE ISSUES WITH PRESSURE. I HAVE NOTICED MOST OF THESE REPORTS INDICATE THE OCCURRENCE WHILE THE CAR IS TRAVELING ON A FREEWAY WHERE IT WOULD BE HIGHER SPEEDS THAN IN THE CITY. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. NISSAN OF BAKERSFIELD NEEDS TO PAY AND STAND BY THE CUSTOMER IN THIS CONCERN OF A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
I EXPERIENCED INTERMITTENT POWER SYSTEM FAILURES SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING A NEW 2016 MURANO ON 12/28/16. I FIRST NOTICED THE PROBLEM ON 1/4/17 WHEN I WAS MAKING A RIGHT TURN ONTO A TWO-WAY ROAD. THE POWER SYSTEM FAILED IMMEDIATELY AFTER ENTERING THE TURN AND THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO PULL HARD AGAINST THE DIRECTION OF THE TURN. THIS CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO OVERSHOOT THE TURN AND I WAS DRIVING IN THE LANE OF OPPOSING TRAFFIC PULLING HARD ON THE WHEEL TO RECOVER. THEN SUDDENLY THE POWER RETURNED AND MY VEHICLE VEERED HARD TO THE RIGHT IN THE ORIGINAL DIRECTION OF THE TURN. THERE WAS NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC SO I WAS ABLE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. THE SECOND OCCURRENCE WAS ON 1/5/17 WHEN I WAS BACKING THE VEHICLE OUT OF A PARKING SPACE. THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO POWER STEERING SO THE VEHICLE DID NOT TURN AS EXPECTED INTO THE TRAFFIC LANE. I RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE ORIGINAL PARKING SPACE AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. RESTARTING THE ENGINE CAUSED THE POWER STEERING TO FUNCTION CORRECTLY AGAIN. THE THIRD OCCURRENCE WAS ON 1/6/17 WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE TO A NISSAN DEALER FOR REPAIR. AGAIN THE POWER STEERING FAILED MOMENTARILY WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN. I WAS DRIVING SLOWER THAN USUAL AND I WAS PREPARED TO ADJUST MY FORCE ON THE WHEEL BECAUSE I WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THE NISSAN SERVICE DEPARTMENT DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AND FOUND THAT THE CONNECTOR E62 TERMINAL 5 WIRE WAS OUT OF POSITION (SEE ATTACHED SERVICE REPORT). SO THE PROBLEM WAS BASICALLY CAUSED BY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. I WAS VERY FORTUNATE TO HAVE AVOIDED AN ACCIDENT WITH THIS VEHICLE.
