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.

WHEELS

1 complaint

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.

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.
