Nissan Muranos come with a high price tag. I invested in this vehicle expecting it to constructed with quality materials. I was informed yesterday by my mechanic that is cannot be driven out of the shop. His words were, "It is a definite safety hazard". The rear frame cross member has totally rusted, rotted and completely dropped. No wonder my back tires were leaning. In appearance, this car looks great. Never would have I thought I was driving something dangerous. The Murano only has 130,000 miles. I have seen online that a Murano with only 90,000 miles did the same exact thing. This seems to be common for the Muranos. Spending Between $35,000 to $40,000 you would expect a better quality build. Contacting Nissan, nothing they can do, out of warranty. Seems more like a defect (recall) issue than a warranty issue. Especially since lives could be affected. Another common defect in the Murano is the A/C condenser dripping into the subframe, pooling and rusting from the inside out. That also won't be visible until something "happens". Seen a 1980's truck yesterday. Still solid and running.
