Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.
6
+1 complaint in 30 days
Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
0
InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

Crash reported

My wife was victim to a hit and run driver on 30 Dec 22. Our 2022 Nissan Murano's AUTOMATIC COLLISION NOTIFICATION SYSTEM FAILED TO ACTIVATE UPON COLLISION. There were no warnings in the car prior. Additionally, the secondary system known as the "SOS BUTTON" which My Wife manually activated REPEATEDLY for 15 minutes failed. She called 911 and after 45 minutes a trooper finally arrived to help her. Unbelievably, this manufacturer advised us to "routinely test" the system to ensure it is active!!! No explanation how (we press the SOS button each time we start the vehicle now, and feel afraid to drive it, (but we have no other option). Nissan has not reached out to us until recently to express their denial of the system failure (this system failure has already been verified by two separate Nissan agents where three separate reported failures occurred that same day PRIOR to the accident). We were not notified. Our request to Fred Anderson Nissan and the manufacturer for a "buy back" were denied. I'm a 100% disabled Veteran (Retiree) and my wife is also a disabled Veteran (Retiree). One year ago we put our ENTIRE LIFE SAVINGS of $22,000.00 down-payment on the Murano,as it offered the most safety features available, specifically the Automatic Collision Notification system, which is to notify a specially trained agent to initiate emergency services. This system is a major priority for us. The dealership's only response is to trade the vehicle in (lose our $22,000.00 in the process) and purchase another Nissan with the same system in place. Our new vehicle has depreciated almost 40% in less than one year. We're being forced by the manufacturer to either keep this car with documented safety failures, or sacrifice our life Savings and begin anew with another 6 year payment, with zero equity. we have just begun to travel in this "perfect vehicle", after serving a combined 60 years of service to our country. Our financial future is at stake, and we did nothing to cause this.

Crash reported

The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Murano. The contact stated while his wife was at a complete stop, another vehicle which was driving approximately 25 MPH, crashed into the rear of the vehicle. The contact’s wife veered to the side of the road. The Automatic Collision Notification (ACN) safety feature designed to connect a driver to a live Response Specialist who can request emergency services on the driver’s behalf in the event of a collision, failed to engage. The contact’s wife then pressed the SOS button connected to the automatic collision notification (ACN) safety feature but the ACN failed to respond. The contact’s wife was able to drive to her residence. The contact contacted NissanConnect and tested the SOS button functionality; however, NissanConnect confirmed that they were not receiving any communication from the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who informed the contact that they could not duplicate the failure. The contact’s wife, who has hypertension, was transported to the hospital with the assistance of her husband. A police report was filed. There were no injuries sustained. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the case was escalated to Nissan's regional specialist. The manufacturer informed the contact that they would follow up with him. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 16,600.

The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Murano. The contact stated while driving approximately 70 MPH in the rain with all windows rolled up, there was leakage that occurred. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact stated four days later she noticed the driver and passenger's side rear floorboard were soaked. The contact vacuumed up the water and drove the vehicle into her garage. There was more rain a few days afterward and the failure occurred again, while parked outside the garage. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer which diagnosed no failure. The contact then took the vehicle back to the dealer numerous times; and they replaced the carpet, headliners, and drains due to leakage and mildew. The failure reoccurred and was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 200.
