Nissan Murano Seats Safety Report | Jan 16, 2010
Reported on Jan 16, 2010
| 2006 NISSAN MURANO DRIVERS SEAT ANCHOR NO LONGER WORKS. THE DRIVERS SEAT IN MY WIFE'S 2006 MURANO IS TILTED TOWARDS THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AND ROCKS AND APPEARS LOOSE WHEN ENTERING OR EXITING THE VEHICLE. IN MY OPINION THERE IS THE POTENTIAL DANGER THAT THE SUIT CAN MORE EASILY BECOME FULLY UNANCHORED IF THE VEHICLE IS INVOLVED A COLLISION. A. THIS SEEMS LIKE A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY DEFECT IN THAT AN OBVIOUS LAYER OF DRIVER PROTECTION HAS BEEN SIGNIFICANTLY COMPROMISED. I DO NOT FEEL IT'S APPROPRIATE FOR NUMEROUS INDIVIDUALS TO BECOME INJURED BEFORE THE MANUFACTURER IS REQUIRED TO FIX THE DEFECT AND URGE THE NHTSA TO MANDATE THAT THE MANUFACTURER CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. *TR | |
