Reported on Aug 02, 2013
| NISSAN- MURANO'S 2003-2010. WHILE TRAVELING AT APX. 20 MPH ON STRAIGHT ROAD WITH A PASSENGER, WE HEAR LOUD POP, 2006 MURANO. THEREAFTER, THE DRIVERS SEAT WAS LEANING TO THE REAR AND OFF BALANCE ROCK LIKE A ROCKING CHAIR FROM SIDE TO SIDE, LEANING BACK ON ONE SIDE FEELING LIKE SEAT COULD JUST COME OFF COMPLETELY AND OUT OF LINE IN ITS ORIGINAL CONFIGURATION . AFTER INVESTIGATING FURTHER, A DEFECTIVE METAL BRACING APPARATUS THAT IS SUPPOSED TO SUPPORT THE SEAT AND HAS FAILED ON MANY OR MOST OF THIS CLASS. CORPORATE NISSAN TELLS CLIENTS SORRY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY , OR, NOT A COVERED ITEM ON LIMITED WARRANTIES. NISSAN IS AWARE THIS IS AN ENORMOUS PROBLEM, THE MAGNITUDE OF CARS BROUGHT IN, THE SAFETY ISSUES, BUT CONTINUED TO MANUFACTURE, PRODUCE, ADVERTISE, SELL CLAIM REPAIR SUCH VEHICLES. WHY NOT, A GREAT AMOUNT OF MONEY IS MADE FOR EVERY CLIENT COMING IN AT THEIR MERCY FOR THIS DEFECT . THIS PART FAILS ON NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR AND CAN POTENTIALLY CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT IF SOMEONE IS OPERATING THIS VEHICLE AT A HIGHER SPEED. THE CAR IS NOT MECHANICALLY SAFE, AND NISSAN IS RUNNING A BUSINESS ON EXCESSIVE CHARGES ON CUSTOMERS IN THE THOUSANDS TO HAVE REPAIRED . IN ADDITION, THE REPAIRS ARE NOT GUARANTEED AND THE SAME DEFECTIVE MECHANISMS THAT FAILED ORIGINALLY ARE USED OVER AGAIN FOR REPAIRS. MANUFACTURING, SALES AND REPAIRS CONTINUE THEREAFTER FOR 7 YEARS OF MONEY MADE AT THE MERCY OF CUSTOMERS. A RECALL SHOULD BE INSTITUTED AND RESTITUTION TO ALL NISSAN OWNERS THAT HAVE OR WILL BE AFFECTED DUE TO GROSS NEGLIGENT LIABILITY ON PART OF NISSAN NORTH AMERICA. THE (LEFT REAR SUPPORT) MECHANISM IS DEFECTIVE ON DRIVERS SEAT, AND UNSUITABLE TO PROVIDE ANY SUPPORT OR WITHSTAND NORMAL FORCE. ITS MADE LIKE TIN - FOIL TO SUPPORT A DRIVER.
