Nissan Murano Seats Safety Report | Jan 13, 2012
Reported on Jan 13, 2012
| AS I WAS TURNING, THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT COLLAPSED AND SEAT STARTED SHAKING AND WOBBLING TOWARD THE LEFT AND BACKWARD. I MANAGED TO GET TO A SAFE PLACE TO INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM. THE THIN BRACKET UNDER THE SEAT HAD BROKEN. THE SEAT IS MAKING IT HARD TO STEER SINCE IT CAN WOBBLE ANY TIME I MAKE A TURN. SEARCHING ONLINE, IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT, BUT NISSAN WILL NOT RECALL THIS DEFECTIVE PART. IT COST APPROXIMATELY $467 TO REPLACE AND THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN IN THE NEXT THREE YEARS. THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT, BUT NISSAN WILL NOT RECALL. *TR | |
