Exceptionally comfortable, awesome road-tripper

Firstly, yes this was a rental. It had a minor handling issue because of mis-matched tires and some strange rattles while driving. That aside, I was more than happy with this vehicle. It was very comfortable, even in the cloth SV trim, and the ride was very good. Acceleration was okay, but good for a CVT. I felt very confident and safe on our 800 mile highway trip. I cruised this thing at 75-80 mph the entire time and had zero trouble. I really liked the blind zone detection indicators being on the doors instead of on the mirrors. I was a lot more aware of my surroundings as a result. Outward visibility is not the best, but I quickly got used to it. My wife, who is much shorter at 5'3" complained about the visibility and refused to drive it. She liked it otherwise. Cargo room was decent with us and our two kids. But, we travel lightly. I was really impressed with the mileage for as fast as I drove. We got just over 26 mpg, and I calculated that by hand rather than relying on the digital read-out. Our weather was optimal; 50's, sunny, very light winds. We've been shopping for an SUV and ruled this out simply based on my wife's concern about visibility since she would be the primary driver. I would not hesitate to buy one, however I would get one with a power lift gate. This rental did not have that, and the rear gate was a little awkward to use manually. Otherwise, it's a sound choice for a larger 2-row SUV.

No So Reliable Advanced Safety Features

This is my 3rd Murano and 2nd lease. I picked the 2018 up in June and after a month or so the electronics began acting up. The Front End Obstruction warning goes out periodically without any warning! The rear intermittent windshield wiper intermittently does not work. The electronic display for temperature controls goes out periodically. I had to upgrade my Apple Cell Phone (from a 4 to an 8) to store telephone numbers in the Blue Tooth and that is not always reliable still to date! Voice recognition is poor on a good day! When I remotely start the car, sometimes the cell phone does not upload phone numbers and I have go in an select phone book and upload stored numbers. I am already disenchanted with this new car. Service Dept. at my local dealership states they are waiting for a fix from Nissan Engineering! WE shall see.....
