Tire pressure monitoring system is not working although the air pressure is kept as requested. The light is always ON which makes identification of loss of air pressure difficult to dictate, and can cause loss of vehicle control and serious damage in highways.

TOOK IN MY VEHICLE THIS MORNING TO GET 4 RECALLS FIXED, AND DEALERSHIP STATED THEY COULD ONLY FIX ONE OF THE 4 ISSUES. SPOKE TO A REPRESENTATIVE AND SHE STATED THE ISSUES FOR THE MODEL OF THE SUV WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THE VIN NUMBER, THEREFORE THE DEALERSHIP COULDN'T ASSIST WITH ALL 4 ISSUES. THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD OF THE SUV ARE ON AND ALL PERTAIN TO THE 4 ISSUES NOT INCLUDED IN THE VIN. HOW CAN I GET THESE INCLUDED IN THE VIN NUMBER SO THE DEALERSHIP CAN FIX THE ISSUES? THE ISSUES ARE AS FOLLOW: NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V916000 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 09V393000 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 08V521000 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 08V066000

MY FRONT BRAKES ARE SQUEAKY. EVEN AFTER HAVING MY BRAKES REGULARLY SERVICED WITH PADS AND ROTORS THE BRAKES STILL SQUEAK. THEIR HAVE ALSO BEEN TIMES WHEN I STEPPED ON THE BRAKE BUT THE CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN AS EXPECTED. I HAD TO PUMP THE BRAKES TO RE-ENGAGE THEM. ONCE THIS CAUSED ME TO ROLL INTO AN INTERSECTION WHICH LUCKILY NO OTHER CARS WERE NEAR ME. NOW MY FRONT LEFT WHEEL HAS STARTED MAKING LOUD SWOOSHING AND SCREECHING NOISES. THE FASTER I DRIVE THE LOUDER THE NOISE GETS. THE SQUEAK IN THE LEFT FRONT TIRE IS ALSO PRESENT WHEN DRIVING IN NEUTRAL. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO GET THE CAR SERVICED ON WEDNESDAY. EVEN AFTER SERVICING IT MAKES ME NERVOUS THAT MY CAR IS NOT SAFE.

MY CAR INCURRED A FLAT TIRE. CAR TOWED TO DEALER WHO SAID THE FLAT WAS CAUSED BY A SCREW WHICH IS WORN AWAY AND CAUSED THE TIRE SENSOR TO DISPLAY AND THE FLAT OCCURRED. SERVING DEALER SAID I NEED TO REPLACE ALL SENSORS AND SCREWS. I CHECKED ONLINE AND FOUND A RECALL FOR THIS VERY ISSUE. I FOUND THROUGH THE DEALER THAT THE RECALL WAS PERFORMED ON ONLY ONE SENSOR/TIRE...NOT ALL OF THEM. NOW I HAVE A BILL FOR OVER $550 TO REPLACE ALL THE SENSORS AND SCREWS EVEN THOUGH THE RECALL WAS NEVER FULLY PERFORMED. CONTACTED NISSAN HEADQUARTERS AND THEY SAID THE RECALL WAS CLOSED OUT. I EXPLAINED THE RECALL WAS NEVER FULLY COMPLETED. THEY STILL DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THIS IS SAFETY ISSUE.

I HAVE NEVER OWNED A VEHICLE WITH THIS MANY BLIND SPOTS! I HAVE HAD SO MANY "CLOSE CALLS" AND IT FINALLY CAUGHT UP TO ME. I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING PLACE AND BACKED INTO A CAR. THE CAR WAS DOUBLE PARKED BUT I LOOKED IN MY MIRRORS AND OVER MY SHOULDER AND NEVER SEEN THE CAR. THIS BEING SAID, I WAS ALREADY SCARED OF MY MURANO PRIOR TO THIS BECAUSE OF THE SIDE BLIND SPOTS. I HAVE ALMOST HIT PEDESTRIANS, CARS, AND BICYCLISTS CROSSING THE STREET ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WHERE THE SIDE MIRRORS ARE IS WAY TO BIG, ALONG WITH THE MIRRORS, THERE IS A HUGE BLIND SPOT. I HAVE BEEN VERY CAUTIOUS WHEN TURNING BECAUSE OF THIS BUT NEVER REALIZED HOW THE BLIND SPOT IN THE SIDE REAR WAS I TILL I HIT THAT CAR. THE REAR BACK WINDOWS ARE SMALL BUT THE ISSUES IS THE WINDOWS ARE TO HIGH AND THE BODY IS AT AN UPWARD SLANT LEAVING NO VIEW WHEN LOOKING OVER YOUR SHOULDER. THIS GIVES PEOPLE A SENSE THAT THEY CAN SEE BUT YOU CAN NOT SEE A CAR SITTING AT YOUR REAR QUARTER PANEL. WITH ALL OF THE BLIND SPOTS I AM AFRAID I WILL RUN OVER A PEDESTRIAN WALKING ACROSS THE STREET AS I AM TURNING AND NOW AFRAID I WILL BACK INTO SOMETHING OR SOMEONE DUE TO THE SIDE REAR BLIND SPOTS. *TR

BOTH FOBS (CAR KEYS) WENT BAD ON MY 2009 NISSAN MURANO, UNABLE TO LOCK AND OPEN DOORS USING THE FOB. I HAD TO REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE FOB TO UNLOCK THE DOORS. AT NIGHT THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE AS I HAD TO STRUGGLE TO TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE CASE IN THE DARK. REPLACED BATTERIES IN THE FOB AND DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. ON JANUARY 22, 2014 I MAILED A LETTER TO NISSAN OF AMERICA ASKING FOR REIMBURSEMENT OF THE NEW FOB I HAD TO PURCHASE. NISSAN WAS UNABLE TO OFFER FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE WITH THE REPLACEMENT OF THE FOB AS THE VEHICLE BEING OUTSIDE OF THE NEW VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY. AS I EXPRESSED MY CONCERN TO NISSAN THAT A CAR KEY SHOULD NEVER HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THESE FOBS ARE MANUFACTURING DEFECTS I UNDERSTAND REPLACING A BATTERY BUT NOT THE ENTIRE FOB. THE COST OF ONE FOB WAS $239.61. *TR

VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY PARKED AT DEALER WITH CONFIRMED BRAKE/WHEEL LOCKING PROBLEM OCCURRING IN ONE WHEEL AT TIME AND RANDOM AMONG 3 OF THE 4 WHEELS EACH TIME APPLIED IN MODE SIMILAR TO ABRUPT STOP AND IN SLICK CONDITIONS.THIS BRAKING PROBLEM DID RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT 11/18/2013. THE COMPUTERS INDICATE EVERYTHING WORKING PROPERLY YET TECH'S ARE ABLE TO CONFIRM THAT IS NOT THE CASE. AFTER NUMEROUS TESTS, DEALER TECH'S WERE ADVISED BY NISSAN TO CEASE FURTHER TESTING AND OPEN CASE WITH CONSUMER AFFAIRS. INITIAL BRAKE ISSUE REPORTED 8/7/2012. BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. DID NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME BUT FREQUENT. CAUSED INCONSISTENT STOPPING CONTROL AND ALMOST CAUSED ACCIDENT DRIVING AND EVEN PULLING A PARKING SPOT. DEALER REPLACED MASTER CYLINDER. VEHICLE WAS AGAIN RETURNED TO DEALER 12/26/2012 FOR SOFT/SPONGY BRAKE PROBLEM BRAKES WOULD GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH UNSAFE AND REDUCED BRAKING ABILITY. DEALER HAD VEHICLE UNTIL 1/4/2013. APPEARS THEY REPLACED MASTER CYLINDER AGAIN, TO NO AVAIL. THEY CONTACTED NISSAN TECH-LINE FOR ASSIST. REPLACED ABS CONTROL MOD ASSY AND BRAKES APPEARED NORMAL AGAIN. 6 DAYS LATER ON 1/10/2013. STREET WAS SNOW COVERED. I LIGHTLY APPLIED BRAKES & VEHICLE BEGAN TO LOSE CONTROL, WITH REAR OF THE VEHICLE TRYING TO COME AROUND. THE VEHICLE FELT LIKE A WHEEL OR BRAKE LOCKED UP CAUSING ME TO BEGIN SLIDING, THEN LIKE TRACTION CONTROL WAS MALFUNCTIONING CAUSING FURTHER LOSS OF CONTROL. THEY CHECKED IT & CONCLUDED EVERYTHING WAS WORKING PROPERLY.THE NEXT SNOW I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. ANYTIME I APPLIED BRAKES IN THE SNOW, I WOULD BEGIN TO LOSE CONTROL AS IF ONLY ONE BRAKE WAS WORKING. ON 11/18/2013 DRIVER HAD TO HIT BRAKES ABRUPTLY AND CAR WENT INTO A SKID WITH ONE TIRE LOCKING UP CAUSING HER TO NOT BE ABLE TO STOP SAFELY CAUSING A COLLISION.LEAVING SINGLE TIRE SKID MARK,APPROX 60 FEET BEFORE STOP.

THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. THE NUT HOLDING THE TPMS SENSOR/TIRE FILL VALVE FAILED CATASTROPHICALLY WITH 2 LONGITUDINAL CRACKS WHILE TRAVELING 70 MPH ON INTERSTATE 5 NEAR VALENCIA, CALIFORNIA. TIRE PRESSURE RELEASED SUDDENLY (NO PREVIOUS WARNING BY THE TPMS SYSTEM). THE CAR PULLED STRONGLY TO THE LEFT (FAILURE WAS IN THE FRONT LEFT TIRE). REGAINED CONTROL OF THE CAR AND PULLED OFF TO SHOULDER. NUT SHOWS EVIDENCE OF CORROSION AND DIRT IN ONE OF THE TWO CRACKS. TIRE WAS UNDAMAGED BY ANY ROAD HAZARD, ONLY THE TPMS SENSOR/FILL VALVE WAS LOOSE IN THE WHEEL, AND THE NUT CAME APART WHEN HAND INSPECTING THE VALVE. A NISSAN SERVICE BULLETIN EXISTS FOR CORRODED NUTS IN EASTERN STATES WHERE SALT IS USED ON ROADS, HOWEVER THIS VEHICLE HAS STRICTLY BEEN IN CALIFORNIA, WITH LESS THAN 10 TRIPS TO SKI AREAS IN CALIFORNIA, WHICH DOES NOT USE SALT ON ITS ROADS. TIRE AND NUT ARE AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION. THIS APPEARS TO BE A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE AS CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE IS AT RISK DUE TO THE SUDDEN NATURE OF THE TIRE PRESSURE LOSS AND DEFLATION. *TR

ON TUESDAY, AUGUST 2, 2011, I WAS DRIVING ON A MAJOR EXPRESSWAY. WHILE TRYING TO EXIT FROM THE EXPRESSWAY, THE STEERING WHEEL ON MY 2009 NISSAN MURANO LOCKED, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO TURN IT. I WAS ALMOST HIT BY AN 18-WHEEL SEMI-TRAILER TRUCK. THE INCIDENT RESULTED IN BLACK SKID/TIRE MARKS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BY MY CAR AND THE TRUCK THAT WAS TRYING TO AVOID FROM HITTING ME. NISSAN'S CONTRACTED TOWING SERVICE HAD TO TOW MY VEHICLE INTO NISSAN'S SHOP SINCE THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE DRIVEN SAFELY AFTER THE INCIDENT. ON AUGUST 3, THE SERVICE ADVISOR CALLED TO SAY THAT THE PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING WHEEL HAD BEEN FIXED. HE INDICATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN BECAUSE OF A FAULTY SERPENTINE BELT. HE SAID THE SERPENTINE BELT WAS REPLACED, THAT THEY HAD TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE BEFORE ITS RELEASE TO ME, AND THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOW SAFE TO DRIVE. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT MY NISSAN HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN IN NISSAN'S SHOP BARELY A WEEK BEFORE THE AUGUST 2ND INCIDENT, ON JULY 21ST, FOR OTHER DEFECT ISSUES WHICH WERE COVERED BY WARRANTY. WHEN THE CAR WAS IN THE SHOP FOR THE JULY REPAIRS, THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES HAD INDICATED THAT THEY HAD DONE A FULL INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE. WHAT IS INTERESTING TO ME IS THAT DURING THE FULL INSPECTION, NISSAN DID NOT DISCOVER ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE SERPENTINE BELT THEN. IF THE BELT WERE WEARING AWAY, NISSAN SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DISCOVER AND DISCLOSE THE WEAR AND TEAR DURING THE FULL INSPECTION IN LATE JULY. EVEN AFTER THE SERPENTINE BELT WAS REPLACED ON AUGUST 3, 2011, THE STEERING WHEEL IS STILL DIFFICULT TO STEER. I'M NOT SURE WHETHER THIS IS A MANUFACTURING/DESIGN DEFECT, BUT I THINK THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO CAREFULLY SINCE THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. IF A DRIVER IS SLOWING DOWN TO GET READY TO TURN BUT SUDDENLY CANNOT TURN BECAUSE OF A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING WHEEL, ANOTHER VEHICLE TRAVELING BEHIND COULD EASILY HIT THE DRIVER IN FRONT. THIS COULD RESULT IN A TRAGIC ACCIDENT. *TT
