What owners wrote
Dt: the windshield is distorted. The glass is wavy, and it is hard to see out of. The windshield the problem was with the outer sides of the windshield. The consumer noticed the problem about two weeks after purchasing it. This occurred on april 5, 2005. When the consumer went to two different dealerships, he was advised that every vehicle of that year, make, and model had the same problem. When he contacted the manufacturer, they said that they were made that way.
The CVT transmission failed on my nissan murano in rush hour traffic in oklahoma city. My wife and 5 yr old son in the vehicle, resulting in a very dangerous situation. She was almost run over. After looking into this problem I have found hundreds of people that have had the same thing happen to them. I think nissan has a serious problem with this car that they are not addressing. This could have resulted in injury or death and nissan refuses to acknowledge this ticking time bomb in their muranos.
