What owners wrote
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.
Liftgate will not open from outside, regardless of method used. The driver's button, the fob, and the button on the liftgate do nothing. In the event of an emergency, the liftgate cannot be used as a means of entry or exit of the vehicle.
