2006 Nissan Murano electrical system problems

“I was driving from a funeral on Saturday July, 30th. 2022. The Car Has Been Fine, & Shown No Leading Hints Of Error. I Did Have A Spare Tire On In Which It Had No Problems Either. After The Funeral I Was Notified My Tire Was Ready, So I Headed Over To Get It Changed. After About 10/15 Mins Of Driving (Taking My Daughter To Work) The Car Started To Pull, & Make A Screeching/Loud Noise. At First I Thought Maybe It Was The Brake Pads, Or Tire Rubbing. After Calling My Dad (A Mechanic), & Talking With Others. Searching Online As Well. It Was Said To Be The Transmission. Few Moments Went By Then It Was The Transfer Case, Axel, Then Finally An Electrical Issue. My All Wheel Drive Light Constantly Flashes. I Have No Control Over The Off/On Module. Anything Over 5MPH It’s Does The Noise, & Tries To Pull The Car To The Left. It Gets Louder, & More Strong As I Accelerate. I’ve Never Had Problems Out Of This Car, Nor Has It Acted This Way Or Anything Close. It Was All Like A Random Happening. Now I Feel I’m At A Loss As No One Knows The Actual Problem. As My Fiancé & I Both Work. We Have No Other Transportation, & Have No Way Of Getting A New Car At The Moment.”

“My car horn recently stopped working when depressing the areas on the steering column with the horn icon. I almost got into multiple accidents, first when driving on the interstate and could not honk on aggressive drivers who sharply pulled in front of me when driving; and later when trying to park in a parking lot and another driver reversed into me because he could not see me and I could not honk to signal him that I was in his blindspot. I checked with my mechanic of 23 years and he found that there was no issue with the fuse or the horn itself - the horn activates when manually triggered. However, there is a problem with the relay from the steering column to the horn and with this Nissan model, that relay is integrated with the air bag in the steering column. It's possible that there's also an issue with the airbag but it's never had reason to deploy. Lodging this incident because the horn is a central part of any car safety system and there seems to be a manufacturer defect in the relay that is integrated into the steering column to trigger the horn.”

“THE FUEL SENDING UNIT HAVE A PROBLEM AND MY GAS GAUGE IS NOT WORK RIGHT AND PASSAGE SIDE DOOR LOCK DON'T WORK RIGHT WHEN LOCK THE WITH THE REMOTE ARE DOOR SWITCH AND WHEN I START THE VEHICLE UP IT TAKE A LONG TIME TO START UP IN THE WINTER MORNING OR WHEN I TURN THE VEHICLE OFF IT DON'T START BACK UPRIGHT AWAY.”

“INCIDENT 1: TURNED MY CAR ON AND LET IT WARM UP TO OPERATING TEMPERATURE, STARTED DRIVING, SPEED LIMIT WENT FROM 25 , 35 , 45 . ONCE I WAS COASTING AROUND 45 MPH MY VEHICLE LOST POWER COMPLETELY WHILE IN MOTION, LOCKING MY STEERING WHEEL. CAME TO A STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND CAR WOULD NOT TURN OVER. ENGINE LIGHT CODE P0335 WAS READ FROM MY FIXD APP. REPLACED SENSOR AND ALL WAS FINE FOR ABOUT 10 DAYS. INCIDENT 2: DRIVING DOWN A ROAD GOING 30 MPH UP A HILL MY CAR AGAIN, LOST POWER AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED WHILE IN MOTION, BRAKES WERE VERY STIFF AND I WAS ALMOST UNABLE TO STOP MY VEHICLE FROM ROLLING DOWN THE HILL BACKWARDS. CHECKED MY CODE READER AND AGAIN, CODE P0335 WAS THE ISSUE AGAIN. REPLACED ANOTHER CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR. INCIDENT 3: WAS STATIONARY AT A BUSY CITY INTERSECTION WHEN MY 2006 NISSAN MURANO AGAIN, LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT START. MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT ON THE LIST OF RECALLS BUT I FEEL AS THOUGH IT NEEDS TO BE. THERE ARE OTHER MAKES/MODELS OF NISSAN THAT WERE RECALLED FOR THIS EXTREME SAFETY ISSUE.”

“WHILE DRIVING MY KIDS TO SCHOOL THIS MORNING, I LOST ALL ACCELERATION IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY ROAD UNABLE TO MOVE, DRIVE ANYTHING. I TURNED THE CAR ON AND OFF TO TRY TO MOVE THE CAR FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, I COULD ONLY REVERSE. WHEN IN DRIVE I ITS AS IF IT WERE IN NEUTRAL. THE BATTERY, BRAKE LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALL CAME ON AT ONCE. THEY WERE NOT ON PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING. CLEARLY THIS IS SOME SORT OF MALFUNCTION WITH IN NISSAN. I READ MULTIPLE PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AS ME AND I PLAN TO MAKE THIS KNOWN. IF I HAD BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED WITH MY KIDS IN THE CAR WE WOULD ALL BE DEAD THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUES AND IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED CLEARLY THERE IS SOME SORT OF AND ISSUES WHERE NISSAN HAS A RECALL OR SOMETHING.”
