Engine
On October 14, 2026, while driving my 2025 Nissan Murano, the engine suddenly began making an extremely loud, sustained sound as though it was revving at very high RPM. I completely released the accelerator and applied the brakes, but the loud revving continued while the vehicle slowed. I remained able to brake and reduce speed; the vehicle did not accelerate uncontrollably. I safely pulled over, switched off the engine, and restarted it. The abnormal behavior then disappeared. I did not record the actual RPM. Two yellow dashboard indicators appeared during the incident, but I could not identify them with certainty. The Check Engine light did not illuminate. Several milder episodes of…

I am writing to formally document a serious safety incident involving my 2025 Nissan Murano, VIN [XXX] which I purchased from CarMax on XXX with fewer than 300 miles on the odometer. The current mileage is approximately 2,500. On XXX while driving on a public road, the vehicle suddenly and completely shut down with no prior warning. Multiple malfunction lights illuminated. The vehicle retained electrical power but would not move. I was fortunate that this occurred on a low-speed county road (35 mph limit). Had the same failure occurred on the interstate earlier that day, the outcome could have been tragic. I was able to restore limited operation only after performing a complete shutdown and…

I am assuming it is the power train/transmission. that keeps malfunctioning. This has happened NUMEROUS times and appears to be happening more and more often. i was almost in a collision because of it. It definitely puts my safety and the safety of others at risk. The problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer and they are now telling me (verbally) that I cannot bring it back Unless I get some kind of warning on the vehicle. Yes, I took it into the Nissan Dealer in [XXX] and they could not replicate the problem. They originally assumed I was doing something (accidently hitting the shifters) but the Rep (Dustin) stated he drove it at the speeds it was happening and could not…
Sep 8, 2026Service brakes
The Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) actuators are bolted directly to the brake caliper. It has been detected that the factory retaining bolts lack a threadlocking compound (such as Loctite) to prevent them from backing out due to normal vehicle vibration. As a result, the bolts back out completely and fall off, causing the actuator to become loose and detach from the brake caliper.

One week ago (6/19) while driving the main screen went black. I pulled over and restarted engine 3x with no luck so drove to dealership. Another startup there it was still black. I was told by service manager âI cannot have you drive it like thatâ and I was offered a rental which I accepted. Just prior to claiming the rental I again started my Murano and the screen was normal again. I took my vehicle but made an appt to have things checked on Monday. At that time I was told that it just needed a software update. That was concerning to me because how would I know in the future it needed an update prior to another incident of the screen going black. Response was that I wouldnât. Yikes!…

Four times in the last month or so, the accelerator pedal has stuck while driving. I take my foot off the gas but the engine continues racing, and the car keeps increasing in speed. The last time it happened I almost ran into the car in front of me. I slammed hard on the brakes to try and stop the momentum. I heard a loud pop and the accelerator eventually returned to normal, but it took 4 or 5 seconds. The local Nissan Dealer cannot find any problems, and cannot repeat the problem despite numerous test drives. The car is less than halfway through a 39 month lease. I have contacted Nissan Customer Care and hope to have them buy back the lease without any cost to me. I am afraid to drive the…

I am reporting a serious safety issue involving my 2025 Nissan Murano SL, purchased on April 21, 2026. On May 9, 2026, while driving from [XXX] to [XXX] , the vehicle began experiencing repeated failures at stoplights and in traffic. While stopped at red lights with the vehicle in drive, the vehicle unexpectedly shifted into neutral and shut off when I removed my foot from the brake pedal and attempted to accelerate. This first occurred on [XXX] at [XXX] . The issue then occurred again at [XXX] and [XXX] . Concerned for my safety, I drove directly to the dealership for service evaluation. The dealership performed a diagnostic scan but reported that no fault codes were found. I was advised…
