2014 Nissan Murano owner complaints (15)

• STEERING

  I am reporting a dealer's refusal to perform a safety recall repair (Campaign R1710) on my 2014 Nissan Murano. The local dealership in Montgomery, AL has repeatedly failed to schedule this repair, which involves a high-pressure power steering hose fire risk. Due to a chronic medical neck condition, I have requested email communication, but the dealer has not complied. I am requesting NHTSA's intervention to ensure this federal safety mandate is fulfilled.

• SERVICE BRAKES,ENGINE,POWER TRAIN

  The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Murano. The contact stated that multiple issues were experienced with the vehicle while driving, including the following: the transmission has odd noises, is not changing gears properly, and emits a burning smell; the vehicle randomly overheats; the brake fluid bubbles when the vehicle is turned on; the AC compressor has failed three times; and the serpentine belt and power steering fluid randomly fail. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where a pressure test was performed indicating issues with the Continuously Variable Transmission, engine, and brakes. Only the AC compressor was repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 125,600.

• STEERING,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

  The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Murano. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the AC compressor became inoperable. The contact stated that the power steering fluid was making an abnormal sound like the fluid was boiling. The message "Maintenance Other" was displayed, and the front air bags warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed, and determined that the AC compressor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken back to the independent mechanic, where it was determined that the AC compressor and the serpentine belt needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, there was no repair performed on the steering system. The contact researched and was made aware of an undisclosed recall; however, the VIN was not under recall. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 179,613.

• STEERING,UNKNOWN OR OTHER

  My Power steering and Serpentine belt needs replaced as well with the pulley.

• POWER TRAIN

  On multiple occasions now the transmission has failed to switch gears causing the RPM's to stay elevated while no additional power has been created. This happens mostly on the highway at 55 to 60 mph but has also happened on side/back roads especially when changing elevation (up or down hill). The repair shop said it is throwing transmission repair codes and that this type of transmission is not worth fixing. They would simply need to order a new one from Nissan at between $7,500.00 to $8,500.00 dollars. Great money making scheme for Nissan. There are multiple complaints of this problem for the 2014 Murano and there are recalls on Nissan transmissions from other years. This seems to be a significant problem with the 2014 Murano as well and should be considered a recall situation for which Nissan is responsible.

• AIR BAGS

  Service air bag light on dash is blinking non stop, in addition the "Passenger Airbag" light below the radio controls is always showing "off" regardless of having a passenger in the seat. After getting the Data read via mechanic the issue is pointing towards bad communication from the airbag control module and the OCS being bad. This should be a recall. As the repairs can cost easily over 2000 per Nissan Dealer and online forums.

• POWER TRAIN

  I have done a lot of research on these Nissan Muranos and other Nissan models. There are recalls for this exact same issue on models 2015-2019 and I have a 2014. I have viewed many complaints and reviews that state owners also have problem with the CVT transmission. Mine is giving error messages and been acting up while on the interstate. It will jolt into 4 rpm and higher and stay there. This always happens on the interstate and has happened a few times on slower speed limit roads. Seems like the issue is mainly when the car is over 60mph on the interstate. It seems very dangerous and I know Nissan CVT transmission have been recalled. I only have 132,000 miles on my vehicle and many mechanics have told me that it should not be going out like this with this few miles.

• ENGINE

  Engine failure.

• ENGINE

  The contact’s spouse owns a 2014 Nissan Murano. The contact stated that while his spouse was driving 30 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was steered to side of the road and restarted. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 146,450.

• AIR BAGS

  It seems I am facing the same issue as RS19-004C - DTC B00A0-00 STORED

• ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

  The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Murano. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the engine overheated. In addition, the contact stated that several days later, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed with a leaking radiator. The contact was informed that the exhaust assembly and the head gasket needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 170,000.

• AIR BAGS

  The airbag warning indicator lit up on my Nisan Murano dash board. This is safety concern for me and my family. When I took my vehicle to Nissan dealer to have it checked, they said there was a recall on it which expired. I bought this vehicle in 2021. I did not get any recall notice. The cost to address the issue per dealers estimate is more than $4,000.00. Why is Nisan refusing to address this?

• AIR BAGS

  The safety issue is with a 2014 Nissan Murano. April 22, 2024, the air bag light is on steady, so the vehicle was taken to a Nissan dealer to determine the repairs that are necessary. The Nissan dealer determined the battery charge was low and recharged the battery. The air bag light went off afterwards for 6 months. Then on 1-27-25, the Nissan Murano was again brought to the Nissan Dealer to determine why the air bag light was on. The technician diagnostic scan for codes found code B00A0 stored, in airbag for occupant detection system error. In plain terms, the seat cushion pressure sensor is defective. The dealer will only do the repair if they replace the entire passenger seat at a cost that is more than $3,700. From my research, At Nissan Parts, that pressure sensor costs $39.02. Part Occupant Sensor - Nissan (98853-3JA0A). The auto insurance will not cover this repair. This is a serious safety issue, where there is a possibility that the air bag could deploy unexpectedly causing serious injury to the passenger, deploy when a child is in the passenger seat, or not deploy at all in an accident. Searching for repair options on the web, I have found many forums and instances that describe the same problem. This should be a manufacturer recall.

• POWER TRAIN,LANE DEPARTURE

  The transmission has given out. There are recalls for the same year (2014) on different Nissan vehicles. There are issues that I have never had. One minute it will go then it'll shudder and not move at all even with the pedal pushed down. It goes into limp mode. There are threads and pages created just for this issue and nothing has been done about it. The car gave out on me while in traffic, pulling out into traffic, and nearly avoided causing a crash that could have ended in death or sever injury. Why is this not being addressed??? I've had the transmission flushed by Nissan and also after the incident. The vehicle is available for inspection but will need to be towed. I should not have to fork out thousands of dollars to fix a major Nissan issue. This happened with no warning. Just failure. No warning lamps or symptoms.

• STRUCTURE

  The paint on my hood started peeling last spring for no apparent reason, so I brought my car to a local body shop to have it repainted, and the owner there said that he sees this all the time with Nissans that are that color and that were made around that year, but that there were no recalls for it. I let it be and just paid for the hood to be done, thinking that would be the end of it; but, shortly after that, the trunk started peeling all over, and keeps getting worse and worse; and, more recently, the sides of the car are peeling too and just getting worse and worse. I tried contacting Nissan’s headquarters about this, giving them all of this information, and they told me there’s nothing they can do because the warranty expired in 2016 (I didn’t even purchase the vehicle until 2020), and that it doesn’t matter that the body shop owner said that this is a very common problem, so I’m on my own for the cost of repainting the entire car, even though it’s clearly a manufacturing issue. I even tried contacting my local Nissan, and two workers there even also said that this is a problem they’ve seen several times, so that they also believe it’s a manufacturing issue, but that their hands are tied. At this point, I’m not sure what else to do, but it does seem entirely unfair that consumers — apparently LOTS of consumers — are having to foot the bill for something that is seemingly Nissan’s fault. Since it’s a manufacturing issue, I don’t see why there isn’t, nor why there shouldn’t be, a recall over it.
