New/Demo Murano
Bill Robinson, Granger, IN, 07/27/2015
2014 Nissan Murano SL 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl CVT)
Just bought this vehicle in Minnesota (I live in Indiana). So far, it's great. Drove around Minnesota a while then came home the next day (9 hours). Very comfortable ride and driving position. Acceleration is great. Build quality is excellent. Interior materials are very high quality. Have not checked out city/suburban MPG but highway is very acceptable. We got 23.6 MPG driving 70+ … MPH--with air on the whole time. That included a MAJOR traffic jam in Chicago which held us up for an hour. We couldn't be happier with the vehicle. I'll do another review after we've had the car a while longer.
Update 7/28/18: Still very happy with our Murano. A few little squeaks but so far, very dependable and nice-driving vehicle. I use it occasionally to tow my boat (about 1,800#). No problem at all. Update Jan 29, 2019: 60,000 miles and still no problems. Great vehicle! Jan 2021 update. Same as before. We have about 75k miles on it. Still drives like a newer car. Very solid feeling vehicle. No mechanical problems at all. This is my wife's car, primarily. But I drive it a few times a month. I also use it to to my boat on fishing trips. Works great for that. I've honestly considered getting another one from that era because i like it so much.
Update 8/1/21: Still same story. About 85,000 miles on it now and we still really like it. No problems at all. Doesn't feel like a BRAND new car any more but still a nice ride for that many miles. Tows my boat great.

2014 Nissan Murano SL 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl CVT)
It is hard for me to find perfect but this SUV was close. I am 6'2'' and 225 lbs. I love the room, ride, performance and handling of this suv. I know most people would love to have all this and still get 40 mpg. but we all know that has not happened yet with this size suv but I do think it does ok for the size. Warranty is standard to most other suvs. I will be looking the field over … next spring for a new 2017 suv as I trade every 3 years. I will be looking closely at the Nissan Murano
Well it is now 2017 and I thought I would give the Nissan Rogue a try. I have the top of the line SL Premium Package with the Rogue and I have had it for about 6 weeks and I wish I had my Murano back. I did not get the new Murano because of the body style change. I liked the 2014 much better.
Update .... Oct. 11,2017, I had to return the Rogue due to a lot of issues and it was at the dealership over 30 days and was still not repaired. The S.C. Lemon Law allowed me to turn the car back in. I now have a 2017.5 Nissan Murano and I am pleased with the change and glad the dealer did work with me to make this right.
Update.... Oct. 11,2018, I am still driving my 2017.5 Nissan Murano and like it very much. Will be looking at trading next year around this time or early spring of 2020. I like to keep up with new car changes. The Murano is still a 5 Star review in my book.

2014 Nissan Murano SL 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl CVT)
We have rented a number of SUVs and found that over all the Nissan Murano was hands down the best! We find the ride great, it handles like a sport sedan with the extra room we needed!
Great all around vehicle

2014 Nissan Murano SL 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl CVT)
This is my second Murano. Sadly, I rear ended someone, at about 15 MPH, and that was it. My insurance company "totalled it", as apparently when the air bags go off on this vehicle, the computer is fried. Cost to fix..$12,000. I got a very fair shake from them, and replaced my '12 with a '14. Have driven it for 3 years, have 47,000 miles, and haven't had one issue. It rides great, not a … peep, and has served us well. I did put Goodyear tires on it, same as the one I totalled, and it is smooooth. I really love this vehicle. Can't understand the comments about cargo space. My buddies marvel that we can all fit our golf clubs horizontally, without having to take out our longer clubs, My buddy's Cherokee can't do that. The back window is small, but hey, that's the wave of the future. Mileage runs about 19 city, 25 hy.
Update...10/2022... 72,000 miles and still very happy! Have spent a few dollars on routine maintence, but that's it.....new battery yesterday, regular oil changes, cabin air filter....peanuts. My daughter drives it in the WI winter while we're in FL and she loves it! Handles the snow like a tank. I'm tempted to sell it at times and trade up, but why sell a good...no, great, vehicle. Someone in our family, if not me, will drive this fine vehicle for years.
