This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Power drivers side seat moving intermittently on its own. Pushing the seat and seatback foward. During this the seat cannot be moved back creating hazardous driving distractions.
The driver side seat belt does not want to snap into the belt holder which has the red button you push to release it, I have checked every time for any obstruction and nothing is there, it does finally lock into the spot after about 10 times of trying this just started happening 2 weeks ago, the car is not that old to be having seat belt problems like that. It does not matter what time of day it does it regardless and only when putting it on, it releases just fine just when putting it on it will not latch. Just let me know if you need me to do a video of it I never made a video of this happening.
The contact owns a 2018 Nissan Murano. The contact stated that the chime was inaudible when the seat belt was not latched. The vehicle was taken to orr Nissan shreveport (844-244-2459, located at 1240 E bert kouns industrial loop, shreveport, la 71105) where it was diagnosed that the model vehicle was not equipped with a chime. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure was not remedied. The failure mileage was approximately 20,000.
The driver & front passenger seat belts are located behind the seats off the floor of the rear passenger seats, so when anyone is sitting behind the driver or passenger the feet of the rear passengers can be placed on the seat belts causing the front passengers to be restrained.
I contacted peltier Nissan last week to schedule repair of the audible alert for drivers side seat belt. I am getting no audible alarm when driving down the road without my seatbelt hooked. I brought the car in today, May 23, 2018 and they had the car for over 4 hours. When they called, the service personnel told me that they checked other 2018 cars on the lot and none of them had an audible seatbelt alert either, so the vehicle is fine. Stating it's not supposed to 'ding' if you don't hook your seatbelt, that it's only supposed to give you a visual alert. They wrote this on the report and wrote 'normal operation', ' no action'. when I got home my husband called the NHTSA to ask about federal law regarding this, however, the person didn't know the law and referred us to call Nissan! (that's scary). So my husband called Nissan main office, and the lady looked up the specs and told us that "yes, the vehicle is supposed to have an audible alert". we then looked it up in our manual, and the manual states there is an audible and visual alert for the driver and passenger side when seatbelt is not hooked. This is disturbing that your agent didn't know the law, and that Nissan has even more cars on the lot with no audible warning. My car dings when the lights are left on, door is open, or keys are left, but they think it's ok that it doesn't alert me when I'm zooming down the highway with no seatbelt on? I believe an investigation needs to be done, as this is a huge safety issue and liability on their part.
