#8 of 2175 murano problems/front suspension by nissmur Feb 04, 2003 (11:39 am)
Our SL AWD has not emitted any rattle (yet) from driving over New York City bumps and potholes. However, the day after we took it last week, we've noticed "clunk" and "bang" noises from the front suspension as we went over potholes and bumps, even at slow speed (5-20MPH). We've owned an '01 Pathfinder SE before, and it never exhibited any of these. We took it to the dealer but with no resolve. I've tried airing-out tire pressures from the prescribed 33psi down to 29psi. That didn't make much difference either. Has anybody experienced this on their Murano?
#9 of 2175 "new purchase" by mmms Mar 13, 2003 (6:32 am)
My lease is coming up at the end of the year. So I pose the question to those who bought the "Murano", would you do it again? It looks good on paper comparing to Passat wagon, Volvo XC70, Highlander, Pilot. Appreciate feed back.
#10 of 2175 Popping noise from the rear by kyim67 Mar 14, 2003 (7:00 am)
By reclining the rear seats as far back as possible on my Silver FWD SL, the hollow popping sounds (whenever it goes over bumps and pot holes) disappeared from the rear area.   As to the question, would you do it again? Definitely!
#11 of 2175 Do it again mmms? by dweiser Mar 14, 2003 (7:08 am)
I've had my Murano AWD SL since Feb. 1st and I would definitely buy it again if it were Jan. 31st. I had 5 Subarus (4 Outbacks and 1 WRX) until the Murano and while Subaru is a fine car too, I sit higher in the Murano, it has more fun gadgets, and is a more luxurious vehicle.
#12 of 2175 re new purchase by baataboom Mar 14, 2003 (11:37 am)
I would also purchase again. We bought an SL AWD with Leather, Premium, VDC, Nav, etc. And would do it again. In the end we got a very good price. But I would probably go to a different dealer the next time.   We've owned Infinitis in the past and loved the treatment. So far, I've been disappointed in the afterbuy experience. Maybe that's just the difference between the brands.   We do enjoy the vehicle, though!

#13 of 2175 mmms, do it again, yes by gust334 Mar 14, 2003 (3:39 pm)
In hindsight, I think I should have insisted on the dealer eliminating the popping noise before I accepted delivery, but we all assumed it was just something loose near the spare tire. See Murano discussion #775, 849, 905, 1027, and 1062.   However, I am now pretty happy with the vehicle itself. If a building collapsed on mine, insurance paid the loss, and I was out shopping again, I'd head back to the Nissan dealer to see if they could do any better on the price this time. And I think I'd get the all-weather mats and the splash guards installed, too.
#14 of 2175 windshield distortion by sunbu95 Apr 03, 2003 (9:29 pm)
the lower few inches of my Murano windshield is wavy-distorted. This is noticeable on steep hills, like my driveway. Maybe not a big deal. I dk if I should have it replaced on warantee or let it go. They (Nissan)keeps obsessing about my satisfaction questionnaire, so I have to decide. Any thoughts? Jim
#15 of 2175 absolutely get it fixed but by dklanecky Apr 04, 2003 (5:01 am)
Point it out to the dealer so that it's noted on the car's record and then I'd wait for a few thousand miles (right up to the expiration of the bumper to bumper warranty if it doesn't bother you to much).   One of the few complaints that I have with Missan vehicles is that the front glass seems to be "softer" than it could be?   I've replaced both of the windshields on my Maximas (one at 150k, and the other at about 35k) due to lots of chipping and marks from all of my highway driving.   Then of course I suppose it could be my fault from the way I drive.
#16 of 2175 My Murano Windshield Is Distorted Also by dweiser Apr 04, 2003 (12:45 pm)
Hi Sunbu95. The windshield in my Murano is also distorted down low and by each corner. It bothered me quite a bit at first and still does if I look out the windshield down low very near the pillars while moving. Glad to hear someone else also has that problem (I guess). I will definitely mention it to the service dept. like dklanecky said to get the problem recorded and then fixed at a later date but still under warranty.
#17 of 2175 Problem w/Murano by xraymin Apr 06, 2003 (5:08 pm)
Has anyone experience with warning lights re. ABS, VDC, AWD, & SLP all come on at the same time? My wife's new Murano has done so twice now without other apparent problem with driving. Local Nissan dealer cannot figure out the problem nor a solution. It seems to occur with driving in slushy/snowy conditions. The lights will remain on despite improved road conditions or shutting off the ignition. The dealer is recommending replacing mother board of ABS module.
