Safety Recall

I was in a parking ramp attempting to park in a tight space that required back & forth maneuvering. I was going forward towards a concrete wall. All of a sudden my car lurched forward to the wall causing damage to my car. This all happened in a matter of seconds. Speed was minimal.

3/20/26 my windshield was cracked right through the front camera. I now have issues with my cars sensors not working, beeping, not going into gear, and the car not starting. The crack starts at the very top of my car and goes all the way over to drivers line of sight. I am told that Nissan does not have a replacement glass available to replace my cracked windshield. On 3/20 it was 3 inches long now it is over 2 ft long. How can Nissan take something to the market without OES parts being available for repair. Nissan informed me that they have no ETA of the windshield being released for purchase at this time. I do not feel safe driving this car, but I have no other option. Nissan informed me to check junk yards....

The contact owns a 2025 Nissan Murano. The contact stated that after parking the vehicle and activating the parking brake, the contact discovered that the parking brake failed to release, and the vehicle failed to restart. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer. The contact was later informed that the vehicle was ready for pickup, but no information was offered regarding the cause of the failures or what repairs were performed. The manufacturer was not yet contacted. The contact was informed that the VIN was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V173000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). The contact stated that the vehicle had experienced the failure listed in the recall. The failure mileage was 5,560.

I have reported and taken my vehicle into the dealership regarding sluggish engine. Vehicle has hesitated multiple times while driving which slows the vehicle down and can cause an accident. Also reported gas leaking out as I pumped gas into the vehicle. Bolt was coming out of driver's side door, Matt Bowers Nissan stated they are aware of the issue with other Nissan vehicles, and the bolt was coming out so they put it back in. Door still having issues, losing time from work to take vehicle in and research is needed to initiate a recall on this vehicle. I feel from a previous Nissan that this vehicle has a bad transmission. Also informed dealership with no response that I keep receiving warning lights regarding sensor malfunction.

I was traveling out of state when the climate control panel on the vehicle stopped working. I was not able to control heat, defroster or air flow. Took to dealership. They verified it was the control panel, and the part was ordered but it's on backorder with no ETA when it may arrive and the vehicle repaired.

1. The digital dashboard completely failed 3 times. Bluetooth was connected temporarily and now people cannot hear me through the system. 2. When my dashboard was disabled, I couldn't drive and was afraid for my life and afraid for my passenger's lives. 3. I have spoken with, the service manager, the general manger, the service supervisor, several service personal, Nissan Consumer Complaint case# 55627413 (Mo) and case# 55627413 (Johnathan) and case# 55993270. 4. The vehicle was on 3 occasions with no results. 5. There were no warnings of any kind, the problems started the following day when we were inspecting the car in the daylight.

New leased 2025 Nissan Murano vehicle 7,386 miles with recent software upgrade by Nissan dealer, Keyport, New Jersey. As I accelerated from a complete stop, the vehicle experienced an unintended increased excessive speed acceleration and when I applied the brakes to slow the vehicle, the acceleration wouldn't stop knocking me back into my headrest hurting my neck and right ankle. I had to shut off the vehicle to stop it. I then proceeded to attempt restarting to exit the roadway safely and it failed to start keeping in the lane of traffic. A message displayed to update the vehicle software which I did immediately and was unable to restart during vehicle requested update. I put on my hazard lights remaining in the vehicle as snow banks covered each side of the road and it wasn't safe to exit my vehicle with traffic and ice conditions. I was put into a situation where I could not exit the roadway and vehicles were approaching my rear as I was in a single lane roadway with traffic had going around me when safe to pass. After the upgrade I attempted to restart the vehicle and it would not until I opened the door and reapplied the brake pedal realizing that moment I injured my ankle pressing on the brakes so hard to stop my speeding vehicle. It did finally start after the 5th attempt afyer the software upgrade. After this event upon starting the vehicle I drove it off the roadway and the seats began to heat up hotter than tolerable and I could smell what seemed like burning plastic with the steering wheel heating up too hot to touch. I called Nissan and spoke with Angel in her servixe department to find out if there was any recalls or other vehicles with this issue and she didn't know. They confirmed they'll be be accepting my vehicle for service tomorrow morning Jan 30, 26' at 830 where I'll have Nissan roadside service take the vehicle into the dealership.

When driving vehicle into sunlight a system warning light displays saying “ Driving Aids temporarily disabled, poor visibility. This warning has displayed during all day parts and occurs immediately when the sun is directed at the front of the car. Have had the car at the dealership and showed them pictures of warning light. Dealer noted car did not exhibit customers concern at this time. I do not know if they drove car with sun on front of car. I contacted Nissan Consumer Affairs and they opened a case per my concern, (# 56110400) resolution is that Nissan considers this Warning light coming on to be “ Normal Operations”, therefore there is nothing more to do. They said that the front camera is sensitive to the sunlight. I am to drive around with the warning light coming on. I inquired with Nissan about what specific “ driving aids” are limited during this time. They could not answer my question. I am concerned that under these driving conditions, which I consider normal and common, I do not have total use of all the safety features included with the car, creating a potential dangerous situation for me. Don’t understand why they have used a camera in this area of the car that is that sensitive to light.

My wife was driving the vehicle on [XXX] between Leesburg and Purcellville Virginia when a catastrophic tire failure occurred. The right front tire tread totally separated from the sidewall while driving at approximately 60 miles per hour. She told me that she saw the tire pressure warning light illuminate just before the tire failure. She could feel the immediate effect resulting in strong vibration and impact on maintaining control. Fortunately, she was in the right lane and had the presence of mind to pull off the road on to the shoulder. There was heavy traffic at that time and this incident could have resulted in loss of control of the vehicle and a collision. I had recently checked the tire pressures and they were all set correctly. She called me on her cellphone and I drove my car to meet her. I replaced the damaged tire/wheel with a temporary spare. I am a retired Technical Compliance Manager for Nissan where I was responsible for dealing with any safety issues on Nissan vehicles and ensuring compliance with NHTSA regulations. I inspected the failed tire very carefully and saw no evidence of a puncture. This appears to me to be a catastrophic failure due to a manufacturing defect. The failed tire is a Bridgestone 255/50R21 Alenza Sport A/S which is the factory-equipped tire. I lease this vehicle directly from Nissan North America as a retiree. I returned the vehicle to Priority Nissan in Chantilly Virginia to have the tire replaced. I also advised the service manager to report this incident to Nissan and save the tire for their inspection.

While accelerating there's a delay when pressing the gas pedal and then a surge in power with understeer causing dangerous lurching forward. Dangerous to merge into traffic and very unpredictable.

My wife had bought a new 2025 Nissan Murano two days earlier for our 28th Wedding Anniversary. We were rear-ended at a high rate of speed and pushed into a parking lot and went through a chain link fence and hit 3 parked cars. The front end was also at a high rate of speed. My Wife hit her head on the dash with no dash airbag deployment and My Steering wheel airbag did not deploy. This caused my wife and I to have broken backs I had L2 fracture and Immediate fusion with titanium pins and rods. Wife had L1 fracture front and back. I was airlifted to trauma center and my wife air was not there and they took her by Ambulance to trauma center. this is a defect from factory that needs a recall and don't sell this 2025 Nissan Murano until recall has fixed the issue.

While driving my new 2025 Nissan Murano (owned for 3 weeks), I parked the vehicle and exited. I realized the car was sticking out into traffic, so I got back inside to restart it. When I attempted to start the vehicle, the dashboard displayed the message: “Warning: Key system error – see owner’s manual” and the car would not start. The vehicle remained disabled for at least 10 minutes while partially obstructing traffic, creating a safety hazard. I contacted the dealership immediately, and they advised me not to drive the car until it could be inspected. The vehicle was towed to the dealership, where it was held for 24 hours. After consulting with Nissan, the dealer reported that the issue may have been caused by not pressing the “park” button prior to shutting off the engine, and that the system may intentionally shut down for 10 minutes to perform a “safety check.” This explanation was concerning, as the car became unexpectedly disabled without prior warning or symptoms, and the dealership had not previously encountered this issue.

The contact owns a 2025 Nissan Murano. The contact stated that while driving approximately 45-55 MPH in a construction zone, the vehicle unintendedly veered towards the wall. The contact was able to steer the vehicle to the intended direction. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the Lane Departure camera was replaced. The contact also stated that the infotainment system displayed a gray image and could not be turned off. The dealer pushed the ON/OFF button of the infotainment system for an extended period, and the infotainment system was reset. The contact stated while driving 5-10 MPH, the vehicle came to a complete stop and shifted to park(P) independently. The contact stated that the engine had turned off, but the infotainment system was still on. The contact attempted to turn off and restart the vehicle and attempted to shift out of park(P), but the vehicle failed to respond as intended. The contact walked to the dealer and returned to the vehicle with a dealer's representative, who assisted the contact in restarting the vehicle. The vehicle was able to restart after several attempts and was taken back to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the failure was related to the Engine Auto START/STOP system. The engineers at the manufacturer and a consumer affairs representative advised the contact not to turn off the vehicle after the Engine Auto Start-Stop system engaged at a complete stop; however, the contact informed the engineers that the vehicle was in motion when it stopped and shifted to park(P) independently. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 6,500.

[XXX] at 1378 miles received a malfunction warning light for lane departure. [XXX] at 1875 miles pulling out from my home to Railroad Street the engine started sounding really loud like a motorcycle engine and started to decelerate which could have caused an accident. Video was taken, vehicle was taken to Matt Bowers Nissan 7/11/25 and states issue could not be duplicated and that the engine noise is normal. Engine sounds really loud each time the vehicle is started and again was told by Service Technician Foreman Ken that he has seen similar vehicles with the same problem, and this is normal and preceded to tell me about other noises that I will here that is also normal. Here a sound like valves is tapping. New vehicle should be quiet, and this one is very noisy. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Forward collision warning light comes on and off while driving. When the light comes on the cruise control will not work and when the light goes off I need to reset the cruise control. This started about two months ago.

The panoramic sunroof front glass on my 2018 Nissan Murano shattered unexpectedly while I was driving on the highway. Fortunately, I had the interior sliding sunshade closed, which prevented the shattered glass from falling directly onto me. The explosion sound was extremely loud — at first, I thought there had been a collision nearby or that a tire had blown out. However, I immediately felt heat and airflow inside the car, and I could hear the shattered glass movement on top of the closed interior shade. That’s when I realized something happened to my sunroof. I immediately took the next exit and pulled over to inspect the damage. There was a large hole in the sunroof and shattered glass sitting right on the interior sliding sunshade. If the sliding interior shade had been open, the glass could have caused me serious injuries. Additionally, the shock from the explosion could easily have caused me to swerve and create a dangerous accident on the highway. I also have no way of knowing whether glass fell onto the highway or struck other vehicles, which is hazardous to others. There were no construction zones, trucks, or any visible road hazards at the time of the incident. I later learned that there is a class-action lawsuit involving Nissan panoramic sunroofs for this same issue — catastrophic glass shattering allegedly caused by the use of tempered glass — and my model and year appear to be included. I filed a claim with my insurance company, brought the vehicle to Nissan dealership, and had the sunroof replaced. Since this incident, I no longer feel safe opening the sliding sunshade at all.

My car several times while driving randomly had the traction control loss light pop up randomly (dry conditions) several times through a 45 minute drive. Around the 35 minute mark it popped up again, and my car completely stalled out. My VIN is allegedly not apart of one of their recalls but it appears as if it’s the exact same issue many others had and that it should have been included with said recall.
