2025 Nissan Murano problems

“One week ago (6/19) while driving the main screen went black. I pulled over and restarted engine 3x with no luck so drove to dealership. Another startup there it was still black. I was told by service manager “I cannot have you drive it like that” and I was offered a rental which I accepted. Just prior to claiming the rental I again started my Murano and the screen was normal again. I took my vehicle but made an appt to have things checked on Monday. At that time I was told that it just needed a software update. That was concerning to me because how would I know in the future it needed an update prior to another incident of the screen going black. Response was that I wouldn’t. Yikes! Additionally, the google assist has repeatedly been of concern with audible requests being met by incorrect responses (different radio station than requested, or static); temperature setting set to 3 degrees higher than requested. Audio will cut out randomly that will only reset after the car is shut off for period of time. Talk to text malfunction and looping. During one errand shortly after taking ownership the backup camera froze and stayed like that for a 25 minute drive. The…”

“I was at a stop light I proceeded to take off and car was lagging when accelerating. Recently just discovered that the vehicle lags in reverse also . Foot is placed on a gas pedal car hesitate to take off”

“On October 14, 2026, while driving my 2025 Nissan Murano, the engine suddenly began making an extremely loud, sustained sound as though it was revving at very high RPM. I completely released the accelerator and applied the brakes, but the loud revving continued while the vehicle slowed. I remained able to brake and reduce speed; the vehicle did not accelerate uncontrollably. I safely pulled over, switched off the engine, and restarted it. The abnormal behavior then disappeared. I did not record the actual RPM. Two yellow dashboard indicators appeared during the incident, but I could not identify them with certainty. The Check Engine light did not illuminate. Several milder episodes of unusual engine revving had occurred previously during normal driving. The unpredictable behavior raised concern about a possible engine or transmission malfunction while driving. The specific failed component and cause are unknown. On October 19, 2026, Lorenzo Nissan Fort Lauderdale inspected the vehicle under repair order 300406. Mileage was 10,951 at intake and 10,960 after testing. The technician reported a nine-mile road test, no abnormal RPM flare, normal transmission…”

“The Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) actuators are bolted directly to the brake caliper. It has been detected that the factory retaining bolts lack a threadlocking compound (such as Loctite) to prevent them from backing out due to normal vehicle vibration. As a result, the bolts back out completely and fall off, causing the actuator to become loose and detach from the brake caliper.”

“Sluggish engine, delayed engine engagement, delayed throttle response. Engine noise under acceleration. My safety is being put at risk when pulling out into oncoming traffic on the highway, engine is not shifting, vehicle not moving as fast as it should. Technical Expert sent out by Arbitrator with the BBB Autoline who confirmed multiple issues with the engine. Vehicle has been to Nissan dealerships, but one dealership said it was a normal characteristic of the vehicle and other states unable to duplicate. Going up railroad track vehicle shifts really hard coming down. Keep receiving warning light for sensor malfunction, also had issue with pumping fuel, driver's front door bolt coming out, video to prove and paperwork from dealership.”

“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…”
