My First Japnese Vehicle - Wow!

Out of curiosity I test drove the Murano SL and feel in love with it. A week later I drove one home and it rocks! I've always owned Ford vehicles but wanted something new. I've read other reviews complaining about engine noise or poor interior quality. They must be tripping or are talking about some other vehicle because that's not the case with the Murano! It compares to others that sell for $5K to $15K higher. Drive one and see for yourself how fun the Murano is.

Nissan Murano Review

I've driven nearly all of the vehicles in this class: Mercedes M Class, Acura MDX, Toyota Highlander, 4Runner, RX300. Pilot, Envoy, Trailblazer, Grand Cherokee, Rover, etc. and rate the Murano the best overall vehicle in this class regardless of cost. You owe it to yourself to drive this one if you are considering a civilized SUV that is beautiful, functional, gets great fuel mileage. It's a roomy as a Pilot, drives more like a car and sets a new standard for this class of vehicle.

Hi, I bought this car Brand new few days after came out in the market it was a WOW everywhere. I had some problems but thanks God I got the extended warranty when I first bought. biggest problem is LOSS of Power when taking off or accelerating I told the dealer few times but couldn't find the problem, I took it to another dealer they change the o2 sensor and the catalytic converter. all was under warranty it ran me another 20000 miles but now I am facing the same problem. OIL LEAK from the engine, rattling noises from parts inside cabin. cup holders are easy broken. changed visor clips 3 times, change pedal distance adjuster under warranty. cheap leather cracked everywhere
