I’m on my second Nissan. The CVT transmission is no good. Otherwise, Nissan makes a beautiful inner cabin and they are very reliable.

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

Keebas Real Life Journey That's pretty much exactly what I hear about these! The interiors are very nice though. Dana and Kevin tell me that is their favorite part of the car. Hopefully the transmission holds up too! Which Nissan do you have, and how has the CVT been for you?

[@Scorpion26too]

Is the CVT transmission on this year that bad? I thought they made some improvements. I’m considering buying one this week. I’m debating between 2017 Toyota RAV and this Nissan. Although I love the interior, the comfort, and the outside look and drive of the Nissan Murano

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

I have heard some bad things… I'm not exactly sure about this specific model year though. Overall, the Jatco CVT transmissions that Nissan puts in their cars have not had a good reputation AT ALL. However, my friends Dana and Kevin haven't had any issues with theirs yet (fingers crossed) With that being said, they still very much enjoy their Murano. It's a very comfortable and smooth riding car. I have to be honest with you though and say that the Rav4 will probably be more reliable, especially as time goes on. On the flipside, the Toyota is probably more expensive as they hold their value extremely well. Let me know what you end up going with. I hope this helps!

Hi Mark! Do tour friends still own this maurano? Thanks

[@waynewilliams1487]

Murano makes slightly more horsepower and looks better than the volvo. Id take japanese reliability over swedish made volvo.

[@racheldaniels1527]

Hi I just bought a 2017 Nissan Murano platinum and I wanted to know Does it comes with OnStar , I'm going to ask the car salesman on Tuesday

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

Hey Rachel. I believe this one does! According to my quick research, it looks like Nissans have had OnStar in them since 2015. I'm not certain though about your specific car, so I would make sure you double check. Did you already sign the papers? And if so, is having OnStar a make or break thing for you? If it means that much to you, I would just 100% make sure it does have it before officially taking the vehicle off the lot. Good luck though and congrats!

[@babyluvjr]

Onstar is a GM product..however, u can purchase the kit.."OnStar for Non-GM vehicles ", I'm not sure if it's still around for purchase though. Nissan Connect is similar to OnStar. My 2017 platinum has it standard.

[@Therealpeter10]

Is this ride reliable ??

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

Julito Marana I would say it depends. Overall, yes. Compared to a Honda or a Toyota, possibly not. The CVTs in these are not known to be the most reliable, and my friends have had the cruise control sensor break on this one. The CC sensor was covered under warranty, and I would only hope that the transmission would be as well if it unfortunately breaks. My friends do like the car very much, but if you are not brand loyal to Nissan, I would also look at a Honda CR-V or Pilot, as well as a Toyota RAV4 or 4Runner before you make your final decision. You might pay more initially for a Honda or Toyota, but if you plan on keeping the car for a very long time, it might be worth it later down the road. Hope this helps, and good luck!

[@waynewilliams1487]

Hey, the maxima has the same v6 and it produces300hp. Whats up withthe 260hp-seems under rated.

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

Wayne Williams Not sure. Could be a detuned version, or just simply underrated like you said! To my "butt dyno" though, it did seem to be around that HP/torque number it was rated at.

[@Mrsbuttercup43]

What does the cruise control problem they had do? Im not good with cars but im interested in this one and wanna know what to do.

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

Hi Shaunie! So my friends had an issue with the cruise control sensor simply failing suddenly. This obviously prevented them from using it, and the cars computer was sending tons of warning messages and noises to the gauge cluster which became a huge nuisance every time they drove it. A special sensor is required in these newer cars that have this type of cruise control. These systems are much more advanced than the "old" style of cruise control that just sets a speed for the car to stay at constantly when driving on the highway. These new "adaptive" systems can change the car's speed to go faster or slower based on the traffic in front of you which is frankly amazing. However, any of these high tech systems in cars nowadays always have a potential risk of failing, and unfortunately, the one on their car did. I believe it was very expensive to fix, but Dana and Kevin luckily got it covered under the warranty after fighting with the dealership for several months to fix it. If you like the Murano Shaunie, I would recommend trying to find one with a cruise control sensor that has already been repaired under warranty by an authorized repair facility with proper documentation, or find one that still has the factory warranty in place for at least a fews years. I hope this helps and good luck with your search!

[@bobbybudnick7181]

Hi when you back up with the camera does it have a beep sensor if you’re close to something?

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

@Bobby Budnick Hi Bobby yes I believe it did have a backup sensor. I personally didn't get close enough to anything to hear it, however I would think it certainly would have one because it has a 360 degree top down camera lol

[@bobbybudnick7181]

@@DoubleClutchAutoReviews ok thanks

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

@@bobbybudnick7181 No problem my friend. I did some research again and I found out that this car not only has a back-up alarm, it has a back-up camera, 360 degree top down camera, blind spot detection, rear cross traffic alert, and and electrochromic rearview mirror! Hope this helps!

[@AbdielSalas]

I owned a Nissan Murano years ago, its the worse decision I made to buy this scrap. Not only the quality its poor, but the service. I live in Mexico and the Nissan shops are very corrupt, they steal the people by not doing the service they should. Tons of people report they don’t get the oil changes and replacement parts they charge. Problems are never solved properly and there are tons of complaints. I am glad they are sawing what they deserve. I made may complaints and never receive attention, Now I am with Honda, Ford and GM. Better quality at least for the same or better price cars.

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

a S I'm sorry you had such horrible experience with it, and the Nissan dealer. I hope you have better luck in the future with your new cars! Also, what model year was your Murano, and where do you live in Mexico?

[@TheRealEric__1]

You sound like a Democrat.

[@Jamisonrand86]

Sounds more like a Mexico/dealership problem rather than the vehicle itself.

[@babyluvjr]

@@Jamisonrand86 I was thinking the exact same thing. The complaint was more focused on the dealership than the whip itself.

Cuales el precio

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

Nuevo, $46,000 USD. Uso, $15,000-$20,000.

[@user-xs9835]

Please tell me what kind and make of tires this car has! I have appointment tomorrow at my cardealership in re of swapping my tires by accident! There is no way that by having only 40 000 km in 4 years and no highway driving, my tires are bold!

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

I believe these are Bridgestone Duelers. I am just going off of what I can read from my clip showing the wheel and tire. From my basic googling they look like they are ranging from $150-$200 each.

[@user-xs9835]

@@DoubleClutchAutoReviewsThanks!

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

​@@user-xs9835 No problem. I see you were on your way to the dealer 11 days ago. I hope this wasn't too late! Either way, I must say unless it's a warranty issue, or you have a "wheel and tire" package with the dealer you bought the car from, I would just go to a "chain" tire shop (Town Fair Tire, Sullivan's, etc.). They usually are pretty good, and have much better prices than any dealership. They also will price match I believe if you find a better price somewhere else. Can't beat that. Anyway, I hope this helps and good luck!

[@mattpaulson1044]

I barely got 40k out of the original Bridgestones so I got the best Michelins. Sigh,….they also lasted only about 40k and I’m pursuing a warranty claim. Think the Murano just goes thru tires faster due to weight and power.

[@TJ-22]

Foot activated liftgate

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

What do you mean? I do not believe this car had that. Maybe on a newer version of this model, but as far as I know, this 2017 Murano did not have that, even in the Platinum trim.

Tell your grandma to drive the car and forget about the technology....you cannot build something to please everyone.

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

I know what you mean. However, you must understand that she gets in the car and gets frustrated because she doesn't know how to turn the heat on sometimes! She is a smart lady, she's just older and not familiar with the fancy tech and complicated controls that the Audi has. I've tried to teach her, but she loses patience with it. So much so that she even debated getting rid of the A5 recently for something a little simpler. I agree with you, she should just try to learn and enjoy the car. Either way, we will see what happens when summer rolls around eventually!

[@DoubleClutchAutoReviews]

Btw you commented on the wrong vid, her car is the 2019 Audi A5, not this one lol. This one belongs to my friends.
